Qualities
The bark or flower of this exotic tree is especially famous among the Chinese for use when one is experiencing emotional problems such as a broken heart and the experience of great loss. The bark of the Albizzia tree is an excellent Shen stabilizer. It is calming and improves mood. It helps with anxiety, insomnia, irritability, anger, forgetfulness, excessive worry, etc. It is commonly used for any chronic emotional upsets.

The flower of Albizzia is even better than the bark. It has the same Shen stabilizing ability as the bark but has much stronger Shen lifting (mood elevating) ability. It is one of the best herbs to use for people who are severely depressed, very angry, despondent or overly-paranoid. I have used the flower very successfully for numerous cases of broken heart and despair. This is one of the ultimate Shen tonic herbs.


Primary Combinations
Combine with:

1. Biota, Polygonum stem, Zizyphus and Amber to stabilize Shen and to treat insomnia caused by anxiety
2. Ganoderma, Wild Red Asparagus Root and Wild Ginseng to develop Shen


Varieties and Grading
The quality of the bark available is quite stable. Flowers should be highly aromatic and in good condition. Whole flowers should predominate.
