The 24 solar terms and Chinese medicine health

Chinese medicine was born in primitive society, and is a discipline invented, developed and continuously improved by the ancient working people of China to study human physiology, pathology and disease prevention and treatment (health). This text is particularly important in Chinese medicine, and is known as one of the “Four Classics”, and has been the first choice for medical practitioners to learn medical knowledge. The holistic view of Chinese medicine ① Man is a whole, the organs of the human body in general, organs and organs, organs and organs are not independent of each other, but an organic system of interconnection, mutual constraints, and mutual inclusion. Man is an integral part of the natural world, and man and nature are a whole (i.e. “Heaven and man are one” and “Heaven and man correspond”). TCM believes that the law of human life activities and the occurrence of diseases are closely related to various changes in nature (such as seasonal climate), and that the physical characteristics and pathogenesis of people differ depending on their natural environment and their degree of adaptation to it (according to the time, place and person). Therefore, Chinese medicine never looks at a physiological or pathological phenomenon in isolation (e.g. treating the head when it hurts, treating the foot when it hurts), but regards the organs and meridians of the human body and the human body and the natural world as an organic system that is interconnected and mutually regulated, and treats the treatment and prevention of diseases from a holistic perspective, emphasizing a “holistic view”. The 24 solar terms originated from the Yellow River region during the Spring and Autumn Period, and are based on the Earth’s rotation around the Sun. It is the standard solar calendar. The twenty-four solar terms, which we see today, were developed and improved by the ancient Chinese people in the Qin and Han dynasties after 3,000 to 4,000 years of continuous invention and improvement, based on the observation of the phenomena of living and non-living organisms in nature in response to the changes of climate, weather and weather in the calendar year, as well as the laws and characteristics of agricultural production activities. For thousands of years, the twenty-four solar terms have guided our people scientifically in agricultural production, daily life and predicting climate change. The twenty-four solar terms are a response to the natural world, and man is a human being in the natural world, and man and nature are a unified whole. The “Yellow Emperor’s Classic of Internal Medicine: A Treatise on the Whole Form of Life” says: “Man is born with the qi of heaven and earth, and the law of the four seasons.” This means that the human body depends on the material conditions provided by the qi of heaven and earth to survive, and at the same time, it has to adapt to the changing laws of yin and yang of the four seasons in order to develop and grow. Among them, “law” means “follow the law”, “comply with”; “time” means The “hour”, “season” and “season”. This is the “unity of heaven and man” concept of Chinese medicine, is the basic principle of health care in Chinese medicine. Therefore, we should live in accordance with the laws of spring, summer, autumn and winter and the twenty-four seasons of climate change, follow the changes in the laws of nature, properly adjust the rest and work activities of the organs of the human body, and do what should be done at the right time, which can help us to awaken our self-repair potential, strengthen our body, in order to maintain our innate true essence, reduce the occurrence of disease, and achieve the purpose of prolonging life.
