Moxa memory of my childhood September 17 2014

 

 

The best moxa was from Shi Zhen Li home town, Qizhou, traditional address from Tang dynasty. Today

the address is Qichun County, in Hubei Provence, China.

 

In ancient China, the humble Chinese in Hubei Provence contributed two precious culture gifts to the

world.

 

One is the Tea, the author Lu Yu, in Tang Dynasty, he wrote the Bible of Tea 〈茶经〉, the other is the

natural medicine, the author Shi Zhen Li, in Ming Dynasty, he wrote the Compile of Materia Medica.

《 本草纲目》. Moxa margwood in Qizhou has double active components for treatment than regular

moxa wool. The strong efficiency was demonstrated that Qizhou moxa strength can penetrate into the

stone liquor jar.

 

Actually, I am from the hometown of Lu Yu, not Shi zhen Li home town, where is two hour driving

away.I lived there for 20 years before I went colege in Shanghai. The most impressive vision was the

green moxa murg wood grew all over the wild filed. In Dan Wu Festival, the green grass of moxa were

hung the front door for despelling the devil Qi( Xie QI, 邪气) in the humidity Summer. No mosquito

entered the house with moxa smell. Kids with red rashes weretaken shower by  parents with the fresh decoction which was cooked with green moxa herb.

 

I was graduated from School of pharmacy, Shanghai Medicinal University, which is combined with

Fudan University. I have fifteen year experience in natural medicinal industry and institute,Shanghai

institute of Materia Medica Academy of Chinese .

 

Gratitude! my dear Mama and Baba, due to Escort of  Moxa, I grew up without any health trouble.
