Decision fatigue—mental exhaustion from making too many choices—has become a modern challenge. More than 30 percent of Americans report working on weekends, balancing professional demands with personal responsibilities. When one’s mind feels foggy, even simple decisions can feel overwhelming.
Thankfully, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) offers an ancient solution: Eye Window (Mu Chuang, GB16). This acupoint is known for improving eye health, sharpening mental clarity, and helping you make better decisions.

Traditional Chinese Medicine Perspective

Mu Chuang has been recognized in TCM since the classic text “Zhen Jiu Jia Yi Jing (The Systematic Classic of Acupuncture and Moxibustion).” As the name Eye Window suggests, this acupoint plays a key role in eye health, helping with redness, swelling, and blurry vision. Beyond physical sight, it also enhances mental clarity.
