Main benefits
Pattern Identification: Traditionally used for the TCM pattern of Liver and Heart Blood/Yin deficiency with deficiency Heat disturbing the Shen, manifested as difficulty falling asleep, frequent waking, vivid dreams, irritability and fatigue in a clearly deficient person.
Core Function: The formula is classically said to nourish Liver and Heart Blood, enrich Yin, calm the Shen and clear deficiency Heat so that sleep becomes deeper and more continuous. Your blend strengthens this by adding Bai Zi Ren and Ye Jiao Teng for extra Shen‑calming and Heart‑Blood support.
Liver, Heart and Shen Relationship: Based on the TCM principle that “the Liver stores the Blood and the Heart houses the Shen,” deficiency of Liver/Heart Blood and Yin fails to anchor the Shen, leading to restlessness, insomnia and dream‑disturbed sleep. The formula addresses both the root (Blood/Yin deficiency) and the branch (agitated Shen, internal Heat).
Key Ingredients: Chao Suan Zao Ren (dry‑fried Ziziphus seed) nourishes Liver/Heart Blood and Yin and calms the Shen; Fu Ling strengthens the Spleen and also settles the Shen; Chuan Xiong moves Blood in the Liver channel and eases constraint‑type headaches; Zhi Mu clears deficiency Heat and nourishes fluids; Gan Cao harmonises the formula. Added Bai Zi Ren further nourishes Heart Yin/Blood and calms the Shen, while Ye Jiao Teng both nourishes Blood and unblocks the channels to ease restlessness and support sleep.
Emotional Component (TCM): Often used when sleep problems coexist with anxiety, overthinking, mood swings or irritability, especially in people depleted by long‑term stress, overwork, postpartum recovery or peri‑menopause, reflecting the close link between Liver/Heart Blood, Shen stability and emotional resilience.
Region of Action: Especially associated with the Liver, Heart and Spleen channels, with an emphasis on the Blood, Yin and Shen; the formula works systemically but is classically linked to the head, chest and circulation of Blood that anchors the mind.
Classical Heritage: Derived from the Han‑dynasty classic formula Suan Zao Ren Tang (“Sour Jujube Decoction”), this modern adaptation retains the original five‑herb structure and extends it with additional Shen‑nourishing herbs, making it a representative Blood‑ and Yin‑supporting sleep formula in the TCM tradition.

Which extra herbs added to classical patent and why
Bai Zi Ren (Semen Biotae) is traditionally used in TCM to gently nourish the Heart and directly calm the Shen. Unlike the classic five herbs, Bai Zi Ren specifically helps with difficulty falling asleep and palpitations with anxiety, as it provides extra support to Heart Yin and Heart Blood and anchors consciousness.
Ye Jiao Teng (Polygonum multiflorum stems) is traditionally described in TCM as an herb that nourishes Heart Blood while opening the meridians. It is particularly suitable for dream disturbance and restless sleep due to Yin blood deficiency, and enhances the blood-nourishing action of the classic formula without heavy sedation.
