Shen is the Chinese term for spirit or psyche. This includes our emotional wellbeing, our thoughts, and our beliefs. In Chinese Medicine every major organ has a shen or spirit.
Excess of an emotion can adversely effect an organ, and organ dysfunction can lead to an emotional problem. For example, excessive anger, stress, frustration, or depression can cause pain under the right rib or vice versa, toxicity built up in the liver due to excessive (legal or illegal) drug or alcohol intake cause overwhelming feelings of anger or depression. Another example is how excessive studying and concern over exams can cause digestive disturbance.
