The Little Sea — Shào Hăi
This acupuncture point is mainly used to eliminate heart fire because it has a calming effect on the psychological level.
Since the point has also proven effective in depressive moods, it is also often called the "good mood point" or the "point of joy".

For me, this is the acupuncture point of choice when someone suffers from a lack of zest for life, even though they are physically healthy and yet cannot enjoy their life.
Application:
This acupuncture point is pressed with the tip of the AkuPen for 30 to 45 seconds, or simply until the pain stimulus dissipates.
If this feels uncomfortable, you can reduce the pressure or work with the round end of the AkuPen.
