Kidney Deficiency Defined by Chinese Medicine:

Patterns of Kidney Imbalance

The emotions pertaining to the Kidneys are fear, fright, and shock (adrenal hormones.) Excessive rumination in any of these emotional states can injure the Kidneys according to Traditional Chinese Medical theory. Extremes of these emotions can also cause severe hormonal fluctuations in any endocrine organ and cause the “flight or fight response”. These hormonal fluctuations can upset the reproductive capacity. TCM recognizes that fear causes a struggle between Yin and Yang, loss of essence, and cuts of the relationship between the Heart and the Kidney. We reestablish good balance between Yin and Yang through reflective thought.

Since the Kidneys are the root of all other organs, all chronic diseases will inevitably reach the Kidneys. Prolonged Kidney weakness may affect any or all other organs. Most hereditary problems are said to be a weakness in the Kidney system - poor bone development, mental retardation, etc. Excessive sexual activity, too much “partying”, overproduction of ejaculate via intercourse or masturbation, excessive orgasms, or hormonal stimulation all may weaken the Kidney-Essence. Multiple pregnancies, miscarriages, and childbirth deplete the Kidney Essence in women

The Kidney essence declines naturally as we age and therefore the proper functioning of hearing, skeletal strength, and sexual function decline as well. The Ancient Chinese used a form of exercise/meditation called Qi Gong to delay these natural functional deficits. The most common cause of Kidney deficiency is overwork which can be physical and mental. Work stress, mental anxiety, lack of relaxation, lack of sleep, long work hours, hurried, irregular eating schedules, or any excessive cerebral activity without physical release draws upon the essence of the Kidney.

We use stimulants such as caffeine to power our brains even more. When we lack sufficient excitement, we often use anti-depressants to rev us up again. They all simply borrow Essence from the Kidneys is used to stimulate the mind.

Qi Gong exercises are extremely effective in calmly the mental activity and bringing the focal point down to our center, rather than the going up to our brains.
Kidney patterns of imbalance are primarily characterized by deficiency: We will see that there is not enough basic substance or a depleted center. We are said to have misplaced our core and so we feel uprooted. Physically, these patterns of imbalance can be identified by their signs and symptoms and they are seen as a continuum, as they really can't be fully separated.
