Hans Selye described the phases of stress adaptation. Stress helps us build up resistance to some extent. A lot of the physiology behind how the patches work do the similar kind of work as an adaptation to aerobic training. Shifting catabolism from burning carbs to burning more fat and making more ATP and lowering the heart rate and balancing the hormone system. If we perceive ourselves to be psychologically under stress or we are under physical stress, we start to adapt. Stress in the form of exercise is a good thing much of the time. “Good stress” is called Eustress. Then if too much, then it is “distress” and we break down into exhaustion.
With stress we increase cortisol and adrenaline from our adrenal glands and our immunity is suppressed. Cortisol helps to lower inflammation. ACTH comes from the same neurons as the endorphins (natural pain killer). They act as a euphoragen. Other hormones in addition to cortisol block pain even when you’re stressed. During pregnancy more eurphoragens is increased!
With chronic stress, the circulation of beta-endorphins actually goes down as an adaptation to stress.
If you’re healthy you can maintain resistance a longer time before hitting the exhaustion phase.
In Chinese Medicine perspective, it is referred to collapse of Yang or Yin and/or Yang or Yin exhaustion. When Yin and Yang get imbalanced we get unhealthy. When our resistance is no longer in place, we suffer from “wei syndrome” that leads to “yin or yang collapse/exhaustion”. When the Shen or spirit is “fried”, there is something you can do: salt in belly button CV8 with moxa or you can use LifeWave patches. CV8 is important because that’s how we got nourished in the womb. It is an energetic avenue to revive our spirit which then rebuilds our Qi and yin/yang balance and essence. We treat the spirit level first!
The Shen (spirit) is in equilibrium with Qi and then with the Jing (essence or physical body). When Shen interacts with our morphic fields, it can translate into balance of yin/yang (Qi) level which then translates into Jing (physical body). Of course trauma in the body can affect the higher levels too.
Collapse of upright Qi – yang collapse symptoms: aversion to cold with cold limbs, shortness of breath and sweats that are profuse, paleness, and stupor. Mental incoherence and incontinence may be late signs. They can have a rapid floating empty pulse (middle position in the left arm is the liver and the right is the spleen pulse). Purple lips, pale tongue. Then one can get depressed and frustrated.
Yin collapse/exhaustion – Yin is more essence and less energy. Dry skin, lack of water, dehydration, lips and tongue is dry because the yin is depleted and yang is released (too much heat). they tend to be irritable (yang rising to the brain). Yin can’t anchor it. It could manifest as shortness of breath. They are thirsty. They can get delirious and stupor. They have warm limbs. Tongue is dry/red. Pulse is weak and rapid possibly. Coughing with scanty sputum – rebellious lung Qi that isn’t anchored by the Kidney (battery for the body). They way to treat the latter, stimulate the source point of the lungs such as lung 9 acupuncture point – send the Qi back down – then the cough disappears for the early stages of fatigue.
Recharge your kidneys and your batteries before extreme exhaustion, include:
- Kidney 3 TAN patch energy enhancer and Bladder 60 WHITE on the right, Water Element in the 5 Element rotation protocol. Do this every other day in the 5 Element rotation and then the opposite days go to the other 5 elements.
- Y-Age patch on such as glutathione, Aeon or carnosine on CV4 to tonify yang Qi and CV6 to tonify Qi in Dan Tien area (sea of Qi – storage area of Qi).
- Y-Age patch such as glutathione, Aeon or carnosine GV4 life gate under lumbar vertebra 2 between the kidneys on same or alternating days to the CV points.
- If you want to use both front and back points, use a more yin point on the front and more yang patch on the back. Example: SP6C or Tan patch on the CV4 or 6 below the belly button and Aeon or glutathione on GV4 on the back.
- Bladder 23 is the back SHU point for the kidneys any time to keep your kidneys tonified and prevent exhaustion. This is a very important point. On an emotional level, the Water emotion is FEAR versus COURAGE. Fear and anxiety can result from kidney exhaustion.
Points for Adrenal Exhaustion (extreme):
- Use CV 4 and/or 6 for Yang exhaustion
- Use Y-Age Aeon on GV 26 (ghost point that sedates the heart (mania) and gets us UP!) under the nose. This is a wake up point for man. That is great for severe back pain too!
- Use Y-Age Aeon on GV25 returns yang by opening and clearing the blockages (heart, nervous system flow, lymph circulation). When blood is viscous, you can use this point!

- Use Kidney 27 with Energy Enhancer or IceWave patches for restoring kidney Qi (called energy storehouse) with Y-Age Aeon or glutathione patch on CV8 (belly button). That creates an upper body pyramid. Torsion field pyramid sky (above belly button). You can create another triangle by putting another set of IceWave or Energy Enhancer on Kidney 1 bilaterally (WHITE on RIGHT, TAN on LEFT). That sets up a counter clockwise torsion field. Now there are two counter rotating pyramids with CV8 as the apex, then you’ve created a Merkaba (light spirit body) and that expands zero point energy, the field of the heart, and revives the Shen. The zero-point energy is the manifestation energy. This is the original form of healing. This is a great protocol to reverse extreme exhaustion and restore health.
