TCM emphasizes the importance of increased self-consciousness, which, once achieved, becomes regular aspect of daily life. Cultivating life energies in order to prevent and treat disease lies at the heart of TCM. This paper provides a brief introduction to TCM life energy cultivation strategies for nurse reference.
