Bupleurum and Dragon Bone

Bupleurum and Dragon Bone

The classical formula contains Rhubarb, which is laxative. In the Dragon Herbs version of Bupleurum and Dragon Bone, Rhubarb has been replaced by another Shen stabilizing herb, Uncaria, eliminating the laxative effect and strengthening the calming effect.

Formulas like Bupleurum and Dragon Bone have been widely used by spiritual seekers, particularly at the early stages of their spiritual work. This formulation stabilizes Shen and calms the emotions, allowing Shen to awaken. Bupleurum and Dragon Bone is still widely used as a meditation formula. It calms the mind without causing drowsiness. It steadies the nerves and soothes the heart.
