Under the changes of climate and natural conditions throughout the year, people's physiological conditions will also be affected. In different seasons, we need to take in different nutrients to supplement our body's needs. Your menu should be changed all year round. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that everything in the world is not independent, but in a state of mutual harmony. People in ancient China had unique views on the relationship and laws of nature. They understood the world with a holistic view, and even founded the theory of Yin-Yang and Five Elements to explain various complicated phenomena. And human beings are an organic whole and belong to a part of nature; Therefore, it is bound to be influenced by the external environment and climate, and correspondingly, it will produce different physiological or pathological reactions according to needs. For example, in different seasons, the phenomenon of human pulse, including rhythm, speed, pulsation and tension, has changed. In spring, it is easy to string pulse and increase vascular tension; Summer tends to flood, and the pulse is grand and sudden; Autumn is biased towards floating pulse, and the finger can clearly touch the pulse by lightly pressing the skin surface; It is easy to sink the pulse in winter, and it is not obvious to press it lightly. You have to press it again to feel the pulse. General Chinese medicine will consider these factors in syndrome differentiation. In addition, the occurrence, development and change of diseases are seasonal; Fever is prone to occur in spring; Summer is prone to heatstroke; Autumn is dry; There is chilblain in winter. Therefore, we need to make different dietary adjustments.
Express one's feelings
It is an important condition for people's health and longevity. Tao Hongjing put forward in the Record of Keeping Healthy and Prolonging Life: "The way to cultivate one's morality is to show great compassion, and those who can be moderate will live a long life." .
Abstain from prostitution
Keeping in good health and seeking quietness make the body and mind in a state of worrying about everything, and also require people to have noble sentiments and an open mind. Sun Simiao said: "People who are not at the end of their eyebrows, or those who are dead, are doing nothing, doing their best and inviting fame and fortune." Therefore, people who are good at fitness "don't take whatever they think", "don't think too much wherever they go" and "don't care about money first if they want to do good deeds".
Distal atrioventricular
Abstinence. Human growth and development depends on kidney essence, which is full of vitality, and human vitality and disease resistance are strong. If you want to protect kidney essence, you must control your sexual desire. If you lust after sex and indulge too much, it will inevitably damage your essence and hurt your life.
Suitable for four seasons
People live in nature, and adapting to the seasonal climate is an important part of health preservation. "Lu's Spring and Autumn Annals" said: "The long-lived old people are not short but continuous, and their numbers are also finished. After all, worry about harm. " The so-called harm refers to the abnormal climate such as cold, heat, dryness and temperature, which is called "six evils" in Chinese medicine.
fast
The spleen and stomach are the foundation of the day after tomorrow. Improper diet will hurt the spleen and stomach and make people sick and premature aging. Neijing discusses the harm of improper diet in many places, such as "yin produces five flavors", "double diet hurts the stomach", and "too much salt makes the pulse coagulate and cry, and too much bitterness makes the skin dry and weak. Sun Simiao's exposition of dietary taboos is more comprehensive and scientific. Besides common sense such as "Don't eat too much, keep it simple", "Always warm food" and "Always light, sweet and light things", he also described eating methods and food hygiene, such as "chew the delicious food slowly, don't swallow the raw food coarsely", "Don't talk too much" and "Rub your face and abdomen with your hands every time you eat".
exercise regularly
People are an organic whole, and regular exercise makes people energetic and healthy. As early as the Han Dynasty, Hua Tuo advocated preventing diseases through physical exercise. He pointed out: "If the human body wants to work, it will be exhausted when it is shaken, and the blood will circulate, and the disease will not be born." In Qian Jin Fang, Sun Simiao also said: "The way to cultivate one's morality and cultivate one's nature lies in constant exertion" and "the body wants to work constantly, not multipolar", reminding people to exercise regularly to get rid of illness and prolong life.
Shun temperament
It means that if you want to live a long and healthy life, you must support yourself according to the law of age. Sun Simiao analyzed the old man and said, "When people are over 50 years old, the sun will go down and the damage will come one day. The heart is drifting away, forgetting the past and losing the future, and being lazy with others are not satisfactory. Audio-visual instability, more retreat and less progress, unequal sun and moon, scattered everything, upset, forgetful and angry, and sudden change of temperament. " This tells us that a series of physiological and morphological changes will take place when people enter old age. We should love and care for the elderly and adjust them according to their temper to help them enjoy their youth.
Drug bait
In this world, people enjoy different interests, and it is inevitable that someone will get hurt. Therefore, taking medicinal bait is also one of the contents of health preservation. The ancients attached importance to taking bait to prevent and treat diseases, preserve health and prolong life, and formulated many baits and prescriptions to prolong life. However, keeping in good health can't just rely on taking the bait, otherwise "even if you often take the bait and don't know the art of nourishing, it's hard to live forever" and "taking Yu Yejin Dan can't prolong life".
Drink medicinal liquor
Huangdi Neijing said: "Summer March 3, this is called a complex show." Three months in summer is the season when everything is prosperous and beautiful. The weather drops, the earth's atmosphere rises, the heavens and the earth meet up and down, and plants blossom and bear fruit. Summer belongs to fire, the five internal organs correspond to the heart, and the heart fire can block the lungs, so people can eat more spicy things and less bitter things in summer, which will help to replenish the lungs. In summer, people should keep a good sleep quality, and sleep for a long time in summer, so people should keep a good sleep quality. In this regard, the Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine has been studying medicinal liquor. In their research, they think that medicinal liquor can regulate the physiological aspects of the body in some aspects, and the regulation of medicinal liquor can relieve stress, soothe the nerves and replenish blood. In summer, medicated wine can reduce irritability and anxiety caused by summer. In summer, the climate is hot and dry, and those who are hot are cool, and those who are dry are clear, so as to clear the heat. Medicinal liquor enters the spleen and stomach from different directions, which is helpful to reduce fire and diminish inflammation. Medicinal liquor inherits different theoretical theories. The choice of medicinal liquor should be investigated objectively, not blindly. Pay more attention to choosing medicinal liquor in summer. Medicinal liquor sold in the market, such as "Miaoqin medicinal liquor" and "Hongmao medicinal liquor", is more trusted by the society. At present, China's per capita GDP has exceeded 4,000 US dollars, and it is rapidly moving towards a higher level. After people's needs for food, clothing, housing and transportation are met, they will inevitably pay more attention to mental and health problems. In today's society, with the accelerated pace of people's life, the living environment is constantly changing, sub-health groups are increasing, and public health problems are becoming more and more prominent. Health preservation is to cultivate vitality, prevent diseases, strive for health and longevity, and meet people's current needs.
According to the demand of the whole society, Chinese medicine health care will be the future development direction of health care service industry in China. Chinese medicine health care has a long history in China, and its health care methods are varied, which can be roughly divided into five categories: diet, medicated diet, acupuncture, massage, qigong, and psychological health care methods. Of course, TCM health care also needs to be targeted at different genders, ages and seasons. More than13 people in China are in sub-health state. With the enhancement of people's health awareness, the market of Chinese medicine health care industry will gradually develop. According to the statistics of the Ministry of Health, China's health industry, including health care industry, pharmaceutical industry and health-related industries, only accounts for 4%-5% of GNP, which is lower than that of many developing countries, while developed countries generally account for 15%. In 20 13 years, the scale of China's health industry is expected to reach 2 trillion, and the demand for old-age care, health care and other different levels will increase rapidly.
Main ways
Traditional Chinese medicine health care mainly includes: meridian health care, body health care, qigong health care, exercise health care, sexual health care, emotional health care, sleep health care, environmental health care, daily health care, diet health care, timely health care, four seasons health care, entertainment health care, local health care, drug health care, bath health care, detoxification health care, tranquilizing health care, yoga health care and so on. Sleep, convenience, diet. The discussion topic of TCM health preservation is to organize netizens and medical staff to learn TCM health preservation. The main purpose is to popularize TCM classic knowledge, tap folk TCM prescriptions, popularize TCM culture and expand the influence of TCM. Introduce folk prescriptions, doctors and TCM knowledge, spread TCM culture and enhance people's understanding of TCM. Introduce TCM objectively, fairly and popularly, respect the understanding of TCM from different cultural backgrounds, and increase people's correct understanding of TCM on the basis of equal exchange. Publish and exchange Chinese medicine information, national policies, scientific research results, etc.
Characteristic therapy
The characteristic therapies in TCM health preservation are divided into cupping, scrapping, qigong massage and medicated diet.
Acupuncture and Moxibustion: Acupuncture and Moxibustion is to puncture a filiform needle into a patient's body according to a certain point, and use acupuncture and moxibustion techniques such as twisting and lifting to treat diseases. Moxibustion is to burn the skin with burning moxa sticks at certain acupoints and treat diseases with heat stimulation. Now people often use it in their lives.
Cupping method: it was called "angle method" in ancient times. This is a kind of therapy with cups and jars as tools, which generates negative pressure by heating the air discharged from them, so that it can be sucked on the skin and cause blood stagnation. Ancient doctors used it to suck blood and expel pus when treating sores and abscesses, and later it was extended to medical diseases such as tuberculosis and rheumatism.
Massage: based on the theory of zang-fu organs and meridians in traditional Chinese medicine, it is essentially a kind of physical therapy. From the treatment of massage, it can be divided into health massage, sports massage and medical massage.
Scraping: according to the skin theory of traditional Chinese medicine, the relevant parts of the skin are scraped with tools such as horns and jade to achieve the purpose of dredging meridians, promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis. Scraping can dilate capillaries, increase sweat gland secretion, promote blood circulation, and have immediate effect on wind-cold arthralgia caused by hypertension, heatstroke and muscle soreness. Regular scraping can regulate menstruation, relieve fatigue and increase immune function.
Qigong: It is a physical and mental exercise method to strengthen the body, prevent and treat diseases, strengthen the body, prolong life and develop potential by adjusting breathing, physical activity and consciousness (breath adjustment, body adjustment and heart adjustment).
Medicinal diet originated from China traditional diet and Chinese medicine dietotherapy culture. Medicated diet is a delicious food with certain color, fragrance, taste and shape under the guidance of the theories of traditional Chinese medicine, cooking and nutrition, in strict accordance with the formula of medicated diet, using China's unique dietotherapy cooking technology and modern scientific methods, and combining traditional Chinese medicine with some foods with medicinal value.
Myth 1: To see Chinese medicine is to eat Chinese medicine.
Positive solution: Western medicine regards the body as a machine. If some parts are damaged, they will be replaced and repaired. Traditional Chinese medicine regards body and spirit as a whole, and yin and yang are opposite and interdependent. Therefore, when treating diseases, Chinese medicine often cures discomfort by restoring the body to a state of dynamic balance between yin and yang. So there is an advantage in prevention. In addition to oral administration of traditional Chinese medicine, there are also external application, meditation, aromatherapy, medicated bath and psychotherapy.
Myth 2: Keeping healthy is a matter for the elderly.
Truth: Don't think that health care is only for longevity, or that health care is only for the elderly. Health preservation lies in harmonizing yin and yang, circulating qi and blood, maintaining good health and improving psychological adjustment ability. Good skin is also cultivated. Keeping healthy is a necessary lesson for people of any age.
Myth 3: If you are slightly unwell, you should go to the hospital for treatment.
Positive solution: frequent medical treatment and medication will reduce the body's own immune ability. As the saying goes, "it is a three-point poison", and taking medicine has side effects. The human immune function has strong anti-virus ability and self-recovery ability, so we must be healthy first and enhance our own resistance. Knowing some knowledge of TCM maintenance at home can prevent problems before they happen, and even if you feel a little uncomfortable, you can recuperate and recover.

Treatise on febrile diseases
Treatise on Febrile Diseases was written by Zhang Zhongjing, a famous doctor in Han Dynasty. Together with Huangdi Neijing, Difficult Classic and Shennong Herbal Classic, it is called the four classics of ancient Chinese medicine in China, and syndrome differentiation and treatment is its soul. The book *** 10, with 22 articles and 397 prescriptions, contains 1 12 prescriptions except repeating * *, and focuses on a series of pathological changes caused by wind-cold pathogen and the methods of syndrome differentiation and treatment.
The book divides the diseases into six types, namely, the sun, Yangming, Shaoyang, Taiyin, Jueyin and Shaoyin, the so-called "six meridians"; According to the strength of human body's disease resistance, the severity of illness and other factors, the various syndromes in the evolution of exogenous diseases are summarized as symptom characteristics, lesion site, visceral injury, cold and heat trend, rise and fall of pathogenic factors, etc., as the basis for syndrome differentiation and treatment. In the long-term struggle against disease and aging, Chinese medicine has found many simple and easy ways to prolong life.
The head is a smart house, combing 500 diseases every day.
The head is a smart house, where important 12 meridians, more than 40 large and small acupoints, and more than a dozen special stimulation areas gather. Using a wooden comb or bone comb instead of a small silver needle, so-called acupuncture massage or stimulation on these acupoints and meridians can get rid of diseases and strengthen the body. Combing your hair often is really a simple and easy health care measure to actively maintain your essence and spirit.
The sole of the foot is the second heart, and regular rubbing in spring is good for health.
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that more than 60 acupoints on the foot are closely related to the 12 meridians of the internal organs, which are distributed in the reflex zones of related organs all over the body. However, because the soles of the feet are far away from the heart, the resistance is low, which is the congenital weak link of the human body and objectively provides favorable conditions for the invasion of cold and dampness, so the health care of the feet is particularly important than other parts. Rubbing Yongquan point after a warm bath often helps to get rid of diseases and prolong life.
Swallow 300 mouthfuls of saliva every day to make you live to ninety-nine.
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that saliva is the essence of human body, stored in Dantian, and then transformed into body fluid and Dan, thus becoming essence, which plays the role of strengthening spleen and nourishing stomach, moistening dryness and promoting fluid production, moistening limbs and five internal organs, strengthening kidney and tonifying yuan, smoothing joints and nourishing brain marrow. So it makes sense to swallow saliva often.
A hundred times a day, Gu Dao was cured and prolonged.
Gu Dao, also known as anus. Pinch is lifting and contracting. In layman's terms, it is the action of shrinking anus. In China Pillow, Sun Simiao advised the world that the muscles around the anus should always be in motion, so as to keep fit, especially for the prevention and treatment of hemorrhoids.
There are more than 300 teeth in the morning and evening, and 70 old and 80 teeth can't be lost.
Percussion refers to the self-care regimen in which the upper and lower teeth repeatedly knock each other rhythmically. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that frequent tooth tapping can tonify kidney and solidify essence, balance yin and yang, dredge qi and blood, make local meridians unblocked and delay aging.
Rubbing the abdomen a hundred times, harmonizing qi and blood, benefiting the spirit.
Rubbing the abdomen, that is, massaging the abdomen back and forth by hand, including abdominal wall, abdominal cavity and internal organs, is a health care method. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the abdomen is the Miyagi of human internal organs and the source of Yin, Yang Qi and blood. Rubbing the abdomen regularly can regulate the spleen and stomach, regulate qi and blood, replenish essence, nourish kidney essence, enrich the five internal organs, drive away external evils and clean up various internal injuries.
People's kidney qi can pass through the ears, and it can strengthen the body by pulling and kneading.
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the ear is the external opening above the kidney. If the ear is healthy, the kidney meridian is smooth, the kidney qi is sufficient, and the kidney essence is full, the hearing is sensitive. Pulling, massaging, rubbing and pinching ears are actually various forms of physical stimulation to both ears.
Eliminating fatigue, bodybuilding and stretching, and the highest blood flow.
The so-called stretching refers to the self-exercise of straightening the neck, lifting the arms, breathing and expanding the chest, stretching the waist, moving the joints and relaxing the spine.
Sit quietly to prolong life, recuperate body breath and add mind.
Medical research shows that emotions are closely related to health. Optimistic and cheerful people can make internal organs work healthily, enhance their resistance to foreign diseases, and at the same time engage in continuous intellectual activities in a calm emotional state. Therefore, one of the ways for the ancients to keep in good health is to rest in peace. There have always been different views on life phenomena, each with its own reason and bias. "Life is in motion", literally speaking, everything in the universe is in motion, so is human life. "Life lies in stillness" also has its reasons. Here, life lies in balance.
① Environmental balance: All healthy and long-lived lives must be in balance with the environment. We should not only protect the big environment suitable for human life, but also create a small environment suitable for people's life. If people lose balance with the environment, they will get sick and even cannot survive.
2 balanced nutrition: reconcile five flavors, not partial eclipse. Balanced nutrition can make people develop and grow in a balanced way.
③ Dynamic and static balance: Neijing says: "Long-term lying hurts the qi" and "long-term sitting hurts the meat" ... To keep healthy, we must relax and combine work and rest to achieve dynamic and static balance.
Psychological balance: Emotion is the baton of life, and mental collapse will lead to physical collapse. Anger and depression can make people sick.
⑤ Balance of Yin and Yang: Everything has Yin and Yang attributes. Once yin and yang are out of balance, people will get sick. Huangdi Neijing says: yin is yang disease, while yang wins is yin disease; Yang wins is hot, and Yin wins is cold; Yin deficiency leads to hyperactivity of Yang, while Yang deficiency leads to excess of Yin.
It can be said that "life lies in balance", and if it is out of balance, it will lead to disease and even death.
