The dynamic balance of yin and yang is the foundation of health

The dynamic balance of yin and yang is the foundation of health Starting from the beginning of spring, yin qi gradually declines and yang qi gradually rises, and at the summer solstice, yang qi reaches its peak. From the beginning of autumn, yang qi gradually declines and yin qi gradually rises, and at the winter solstice, yin qi reaches its peak. After the winter solstice, yin qi gradually declines and yang qi gradually rises. This is the cycle of yin and yang in nature. Spring and summer, the natural world of Yang Qi hair, everything is full of vitality, the human body of Yang Qi should also comply with the natural upward and outward Lyric, health care should protect the body of Yang Qi, so that it is full of exuberance, do not do damage to the body of Yang Qi things. For example, one should go to bed late and get up early in order to comply with nature’s lack of yin qi and the abundance of yang qi. Let your will be born and your spirit be happy. And in the winter and fall, everything converges and hides, at this time, health care should comply with the collection of nature’s collection of momentum, collection of the body’s yin essence, so that the essence of the body in order to moisturize and nourish the five viscera. For example, in the fall to lie down early and get up early (later than in spring and summer) to adapt to the yin long. In winter, we should lie down early and get up late to adapt to the nature of the closure of the hidden, is also the meaning of yin nourishment, will and spirit should be hidden. Yellow Emperor’s Classic of Internal Medicine” said: “the four seasons of yin and yang, the root of all things, so the saint spring and summer to raise the sun, fall and winter to raise the yin …… against its roots, then cut down its own, the bad really carry on. Therefore, the yin and yang four times, the end and beginning of all things, death and life of this also, against the disaster is born, from the harsh disease is not, it is said to get the road. Road, the saints do, the fools wear.” Meaning: the change of yin and yang in the four seasons is the root of all things. A sage who knows how to nourish life takes in yang energy in the spring and summer, and maintains yin essence in the fall and winter. Going against the way of nourishment will destroy the body’s essence and ruin one’s body. So the change of yin and yang in the four seasons is the beginning and the end of everything, and the root of life and death. Going against it will produce calamity; and adapting to it will prevent serious illness. If you know this, you can be said to have mastered the way of health care. The way of nourishing life is followed by sages, and disobeyed by fools. Contrary to nature, although you may not get sick immediately, once you form a habit, you will greatly increase the chance of getting sick, even if you don’t get sick by feeling external evils, it will lead to abnormal physiological functions. Just like if you often violate traffic rules, the possibility of accidents will greatly increase. Spring to nourish the liver, summer to nourish the heart, autumn to nourish the lungs, winter to nourish the kidneys, four seasons to nourish the spleen and stomach The organs corresponding to each season are related to the characteristics of the season. Different seasons of human organs function differently, so in the health, there is a focus. Spring is the time of recovery, the characteristics of the liver is easy to develop, so spring should pay attention to liver. Chinese medicine believes that “sweat is the liquid of the heart”, summer people sweat the most, so summer should pay attention to the heart, autumn is dry, dry is most likely to hurt the lungs, so autumn should pay attention to the lungs, winter is cold, the kidney is the root of the body’s yang qi, so the winter should pay attention to the kidneys. The spleen and stomach have the most to do with diet and digestion, there is no prominent seasonality, it is necessary to pay attention to the maintenance of all seasons of the year. Eat vegetables and fruits corresponding to the season “Yellow Emperor’s Classic of Internal Medicine” said that “the Division of the year to prepare things”, Confucius in the “Analects” also said that “from time to time do not eat”, that is, we should follow the laws of nature in each season to pick and prepare the food, so that the food has a high nutritive value, eaten after the It is only after eating it that it is beneficial to moisturize and nourish the five organs. Anti-seasonal food is against the laws of nature and should not be eaten or eaten sparingly if you want to achieve the purpose of health maintenance. Spiritual nourishment and go hand in hand I once hospital physical examination results to do a survey, more than 5,000 women, breast hyperplasia accounted for 56%, uterine fibroids accounted for 8%, menstrual irregularities accounted for 26%. These are all related to their high work pressure and heavy mental burden. Tumors of all systems have a great relationship with long-term depression of the spirit. The power of the spirit is strong and it can control the body. A person can go three days and three nights without eating or sleeping if he is in a very sad time. If the spirit is not well-conditioned, the body will be injured by the emotions. On the contrary, if the spirit is well-conditioned, the health benefits are again great. There was a liver cancer patient in my clinic who was once judged to have only three to six months to live. However, two years later, all his indicators have improved. Chinese medicine emphasizes “three parts treatment, seven parts nourishment”. He did exceptionally well in the seventh part, mainly because he had a very good mindset. According to Chinese medicine, anger hurts the liver, joy hurts the heart, worry hurts the lungs, thought hurts the spleen, and fear hurts the kidneys. From this, we can see that when we follow nature and moisturize the five organs, we should also pay attention to the regulation of emotions. Nutrition is a habit. Some people say, I don’t have time to exercise. But if you get off one stop early when you commute and walk to the unit, this is a kind of exercise; if you don’t take the elevator and take the stairs, this is also a kind of exercise. High blood pressure, high blood fat, fatty liver, diabetes, gout, now the age of the population suffering from these diseases is greatly reduced, we all know that these diseases are eaten out. If you can pay attention to some of the usual diet, control some, do not overeat, do not favor picky food, is in the health, is in the prevention. Nutrition is not difficult, the earlier you start the more effective you can prevent, delay or avoid the occurrence of disease.
