This is the method mentioned more than 2000 years ago in "Discussion on Principles of Yin-Yang Doctrine and its Relations with Natural Things and Phenomena", a chapter of Plain Questions. The content includes "anger impairs the liver while grief restricts anger"; "joy impairs the heart while fear restricts joy"; "anxiety impairs the spleen while anger restricts anxiety";"melancholy impairs the lung while joy restricts melancholy" and "fear impairs the kidney while anxiety restricts fear." This method of checking one emotion with another is based on the principle of excess curing excess.
“五情相克”的方法早在2000多年前的《黃帝內經素問》(小編注:《黃帝內經素問》簡稱《素問》,shixiancunzuizaodezhongyililunzhuzuo,xiangchuanweihuangdichuangzuo,dayuechengshuyuchunqiuzhanguoshiqi。tuchuchanfalegudaidezhexuesixiang,qiangtiaolerentineiwaitongyidezhengtiguannian,congerchengweizhongyijibenlilundeyuanyuan。)討論五行學說與自然現象的章節中就有涉及。“五情相克”的內容包括“怒傷肝而悲能勝怒;喜傷心而恐勝喜;思傷脾而怒勝思;憂傷肺而喜勝憂;恐傷腎而思勝恐。”這種方法的理論依據是“五行相生相克”(小編注:五行相克,指的是事物的相互克製、製zhi約yue或huo抑yi製zhi的de關guan係xi,如ru木mu克ke土tu,土tu克ke水shui,水shui克ke火huo,火huo克ke金jin,金jin克ke木mu。五wu行xing在zai中zhong醫yi理li論lun中zhong是shi指zhi構gou成cheng天tian地di萬wan物wu的de五wu種zhong基ji本ben物wu質zhi,用yong以yi說shuo明ming世shi界jie萬wan物wu的de起qi源yuan和he世shi界jie是shi物wu質zhi多duo樣yang性xing的de統tong一yi體ti。)
