Still 静
For the mind that will not settle.
The Shen — mind, housed in the Heart — comes unmoored when Heart Yin or Heart Blood is thin, or when Liver Qi constraint throws heat upward. The mind runs. The body has not followed.
Still is built for that pattern. Not a slogan — a classical pairing: Sour Jujube Seed 酸枣仁 to nourish Heart Yin and settle the Shen; Longan to rebuild Heart Blood; Poria and Lotus Seed to quiet what keeps circling. Rest is not the absence of thought. It is the return of quiet.
The brew is part of the work. Water to 85°C. Five minutes. The wait is not decoration. It is the first quiet.
