LUNGS: Detachment & Courage Organ Time Strongest Activity = 3am - 5amWeakest Activity = 3pm - 5pm In TCM, the lung and colon have a polarized relationship and the interaction of both organs is to be found in the symptoms of many diseases.

If liver function is compromised, feelings of tiredness or lethargy occur at its main organ times: hyperfunction from 1am to 3am, hypofunction from 1pm to 3pm. These are also the best times for treating the liver or providing support for it.
