Theoretical basis of verb (abbreviation of verb);
According to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, the abdomen lives in the middle of the human body, where the main digestive organs such as stomach, spleen, liver, gallbladder, large intestine and small intestine are gathered. Among them, the stomach is the acquired foundation of the human body, and the nutrition of human viscera and limbs depends entirely on the stomach to process and transform food such as water, grain, meat and vegetables. Only the healthy gastrointestinal function can ensure the effective supply of Qi Ying. When people use abdominal breathing, with the ups and downs of abdominal muscles, the energy of gastrointestinal activities will increase, and the digestive function will be strengthened, so that the human body can absorb nutrients more fully and reject dregs more thoroughly. At the same time, abdominal breathing can not only promote blood circulation and increase oxygen supply, but also expand the range of diaphragm activity and increase vital capacity.
