Indecisiveness is a Weakness of the Gallbladder [Spring Health Care]

April marks the beginning of a new life, and you may feel like challenging yourself with various things. On the other hand, you might feel hesitant and find it difficult to summon the courage to take that first new step.

If you are someone who:
Often feels lost and cannot make decisions easily. Changes your mind immediately even after deciding. Cannot even decide on a restaurant menu.
Easily gets flustered, nervous, or timid.

Many people think this is just their personality, but these are symptoms caused by a weak gallbladder.

What is the gallbladder?

It refers to the gallbladder, but it is not the organ itself.
The function of the gallbladder is to manage digestion and absorption, eliminate waste, and govern decision-making.

In Western medicine, each organ is treated independently and has different medical departments, but
in Traditional Chinese Medicine, the five organs (liver, heart, spleen, lungs, and kidneys) are considered to support and interact with each other to drive the body and mind.

The 'gallbladder' has a yin-yang relationship (a mutually supportive relationship) with the liver.

The liver stabilizes emotions, and the gallbladder makes decisions.
Thanks to this, the mental activity of 'thinking carefully and deciding' is carried out.

Spring requires gallbladder care

Spring is the season when the liver is active. When the liver works too hard and becomes weak, the gallbladder also weakens at the same time.

The Japanese expression 'kimogasawaru' (to have guts) refers to gallbladder strength, vitality, and mental power. When that gallbladder strength weakens, decision-making and action-taking abilities drop, making it difficult to give the 'go' sign.

Other signs of gallbladder dysfunction include eye pain, headaches (temporal pain), tension or pain under the ribs or on the outside of the legs, physical fatigue, irritability, constipation, or a tendency toward loose stools.

Take care of the liver, which is vulnerable to stress, at the same time to boost the gallbladder. If the liver becomes healthy, your courage will also increase.

Recommended foods include lettuce, strawberries, goji berries, spinach, komatsuna, and black beans.

Stretch or massage the sides of your body. Relieve stress frequently. Make sure to get enough sleep.
