Description	This formula is a modification of Xiao Yao San (Rambling Powder) from the tai Ping Hui Min He Ji Ju Fang (Tai Ping Imperial Grace Formuary), As such, it comes from the late Qing Dynasty Nei Ke Zhai Yao (The Selected Essentials of Internal Medicine) published in the mid 19th century. Within this formula, Dan Pi and Zhi Zi clear heat and resolve depression and especially clear heat from the blood aspect. Chai Hu courses the liver and resolves depression. The combination of Dang Gui and Bai Shao nourishes the blood and emolliates the liver. Because Dang Gui is somewhat aromatic, it moves the qi, but because it is sweet, it also relaxes tension. Therefore, it is an essential medicinal for treating liver depression with blood vacuity. Bai Zhu and Fu Ling fortify the spleen and eliminate dampness. Mix-fried Gan Cao boosts the qi and supplements the center as well as relaxes the liver's tension. It is the assistant medicinal in this formula.
