under the tutorship of Professor Kong Guang-Yi and Fu Yanling of Beijing University of
Chinese Medicine, China. Greta has been a tireless and effective advocate and

Churchill Livingstone, Elsevier Australia in 2009. From 1998 till now Greta has conducted
numerous Chinese Medicine seminars in Australia, New Zealand, the Netherlands and
Germany.
Summary of the lecture content: The theory of restraining excessiveness to acquire
equilibrium is an age – old theory of the five movements and six qi. This philosophy
originated from Nei Jing Chapter 68, in which it said: “When the Six Qi are in excess,
damage or harm will ensue. Thus, they must be restrained to achieve harmony and
equilibrium. This is to enable growth and transformation of all things to continue.
Conversely, when the six qi are excessive or insufficient, they will also do harm to the
ensuing growth and transformation. This theory incorporates the resistance of opposite
elements and the inter-relationships between the engendering and restraint. It denotes
that all things in the universe are subjected to the regulating function of restoring the
balance if anything is hyperactive. This philosophy serves as a regulatory mechanism
based on the five movements and the six qi and the five phases that constitute an
important Chinese medicine diagnosis and treatment principle in the management of
many difficult-to-treat disorders. The same theory applies to the weather condition. If the
temperature is too hot, there will be a cool front followed by rain to reduce the heat. The
author cites many treatment strategies which are under the scope of Excess and Restraint
in the management of many diseases with the ultimate goal of restoring the balance of
yin and yang.
