🌿 Does your stomach react immediately when you’re stressed?

Many people experience:

• Bloating or tightness during stress

• Loss of appetite when anxious

• Acid reflux before meetings or deadlines

• Normal medical tests but recurring discomfort

• Symptoms easing when relaxed

In TCM, this pattern reflects disharmony between emotional regulation and digestive function, not structural stomach disease.

✔ poor appetite

2️⃣ Disrupted Qi Flow (Stomach Qi not descending)

✔ acid reflux
✔ nausea
✔ chest tightness

3️⃣ Spleen–Stomach Weakness

✔ digestion easily disturbed by stress
✔ slow recovery

4️⃣ Chronic Tension-Type Constitution

✔ body remains in a “held” state
✔ stomach reacts first
