Will -

Could you please explain this approach? I.e., how do you direct the results,
say, towards tonifying or dispersing the generating channel, dispersing the
controlling channel, etc.? If you have two channels in trouble, say an
asthma patient with weak (L) KD Metal level, Weak Lu Water level, and the
controlling channel is excess (ST pulse that is excess (Metal position)) -
what points would you choose? I'm new to 5 element thinking; I come from a
TCM background.
