Self-cultivation is the starting point of China ancient literati's ideal life. Impetuous, maybe we can find a prescription to cure our inner hesitation, helplessness and helplessness. Compared with ancient times, modern society is more complicated and faster, and people face more choices when looking for their place in society. People should judge and make choices. Social changes make people hesitate, and people hesitate about how to control their own destiny. Tired, tired, for yourself, for family, for ideals, for faith. Let yourself be more confident, more practical and more comfortable on the way forward; Let yourself prepare for everything you may face from the inside out, from top to bottom, from body to mind. Self-cultivation and saving energy may become a gas station on the journey, which is both a road sign and a driving force.

Chinese medicine believes that essence, qi and spirit are the three treasures of the human body, and essence, qi and spirit are all signs of human health. Deficiency of essence, deficiency of qi and fear of spirit are harbingers of disease and aging. Sun Simiao, a doctor in the Tang Dynasty, once pointed out: "Essence, qi and spirit should not be damaged, and damage will hurt life." . Therefore, maintaining the essence and spirit is an important guarantee for our healthy life. The ancients said, "I want to nourish essence less, speak less, and think less." This "three widows" is the foundation of raising "three treasures".

Lack of desire to nourish essence

Chinese medicine believes that "excessive desire will damage essence." Indulgence not only loses too much semen, but also damages the essence of five internal organs. "Liver essence is not solid, dizziness; Lung essence does not pay, muscle wasting; Kidney essence is not solid, and essence and qi decrease; Spleen essence is not firm, teeth are floating and falling. If the dissipation is really fine, the disease will follow, and death will follow. " Physicians of all ages have advocated that nourishing essence should be the primary task of health preservation. "Jing Lei She Sheng" pointed out: "If you want to be vertical, you must exhaust it. Fatigue is inexhaustible, and fatigue is really gone. Covering essence can generate qi, and qi can generate. Therefore, people who are good at keeping in good health must cherish their essence, be full of essence, be full of spirit, be healthy all over and be less sick. Strong, old and strong, all depend on essence. " If you indulge in sex, men will suffer from nocturnal emission, premature ejaculation, impotence, reproductive weakness, and even weakness of the waist and knees, long-term dizziness, tinnitus, palpitations, forgetfulness, insomnia, dreaminess, listlessness and tuberculosis. Women's kidney deficiency and essence deficiency, unstable chong and ren, qi and blood imbalance, metrorrhagia and bleeding, constant leucorrhea, infertility or abortion, premature delivery, and even menstrual insufficiency, amenorrhea, sallow and emaciated, become a disease of strain. Not only that, indulgence will also lead to endocrine disorders, affecting the digestive system and blood circulation system. The ancients called sexual intercourse "the axe of cutting", which means that it can cut the human body and cause premature death or premature aging. Therefore, abstinence is an important aspect of health care.

Silence nourishes qi

Qi is the most basic substance that constitutes the human body, and it has the characteristics of continuous exercise, maintenance and promotion of human life activities. The basic requirement of nourishing qi is to talk less nonsense. Because tissues and cells in the human body constantly get oxygen and eliminate carbon dioxide through metabolism, and alveoli are the main places for gas exchange, oxygen exchanged from alveoli through blood is continuously sent to various tissues and cells in the body. If a person shouts loudly and endlessly, it will inevitably consume lung qi, affect the normal function of respiratory organs, lead to insufficient vitality in the body, and foreign pathogens will take advantage of it and get sick. Some people pursue excitement, get together for fun, and shout and laugh, which will only damage the essence, make people fly, make people's blood boil and cause other diseases.

Rarely think of rest.

Thinking less is to make people stop thinking, so as not to use the brain to excessively affect the physiological activities of the cerebral cortex. "Those who are good at living are not bothered or bitter." If the form of God is safe, where does the disaster come from? "This statement of Chinese medicine makes sense. Thinking too much will make people stagnate and cause various diseases. There are some sayings in Neijing, such as "thinking hurts the spleen", "thinking leads to qi stagnation" and "thinking too much leads to mental distress". Common symptoms include unhappy mood, dizziness, insufficient diet, abdominal distension and tightness, and even sallow complexion, fatigue, palpitation and shortness of breath. Women's heart and spleen are damaged due to excessive thinking, which leads to irregular menstruation and even amenorrhea. Over time, there will be more diseases, such as neurasthenia, gastrointestinal nerve dysfunction, hypertension, coronary heart disease, and even cancer. " Mortals can't be without thinking ",but there is a limit. Don't brood over trifles, let alone worry about things outside. Only in this way can we reduce the ideological burden as much as possible, which is conducive to achieving "concentration" and preventing "distraction".

In fact, before we know the spirit of recuperation, we should know the importance of nourishing essence, qi and spirit. Let's have a look.

Nourishing essence lies in nourishing kidney.

Because the kidney is an organ that stores sperm, it is congenital. Lingshu said to God, "Born with essence, the two essence strive for God." Lack of sperm often leads to mental retardation, slow action, loose teeth, tinnitus and deafness, soreness of waist and knees, premature loss of sexual desire, pale tongue and thready pulse. Medicine should tonify kidney and replenish essence, and take Zuogui pills. The prescription consists of Cornus officinalis, Radix Rehmanniae Preparata, Rhizoma Dioscoreae, Fructus Lycii, Semen Cuscutae, Radix Achyranthis Bidentatae, Colla Plastri Testudinis, and Colla cornus Cervi, 6 6- 10/0g for each taste, and decocted in water to get juice, 1 dose for 2 days, with 7-8 doses each time, and the effect is better for 6-9 months. As a preventive medicine, take 3 ~ 5 doses slowly every month. If you use Chinese patent medicine, you can take Bushen Pills, 1 ~ 2 capsules each time, 1 three times a day, and take them with light salt soup. The course of treatment is the same as decoction.

Nourishing qi lies in nourishing the spleen and stomach.

Because the spleen and stomach are the foundation of the day after tomorrow and the source of qi and blood biochemistry. "Lingshu Ren Ping is absolutely ancient" said: "Therefore, the gods are also the essence of Shui Gu." It shows that nourishing the spleen and stomach is nourishing qi, and nourishing qi is nourishing the spirit. Qi deficiency often leads to pallor, lack of qi and laziness in speaking, physical weakness, abdominal distension and anorexia, thin stool, pale tongue and weak pulse. Drugs should tonify the middle energizer and replenish qi, and can be taken together with Shen Ling Baizhu Powder. The prescription consists of ginseng, Atractylodes macrocephala, Chinese yam, Amomum villosum, Poria, Platycodon grandiflorum, Coicis Semen, Lentils, Lotus Seeds and Glycyrrhiza uralensis Fisch, 6- 10g each time, with 7-8 doses each time for 2-3 months. As a preventive medicine, take 3 ~ 5 doses slowly every month. If you take Chinese patent medicine, you should still take Shen Ling Baizhu Powder, 3 ~ 6g each time, 1, three times a day, and the jujube soup should be adjusted. The course of treatment is the same as that of decoction.

Nourishing the heart lies in nourishing the heart and benefiting the brain.

Because the heart is the zang-fu organ of the Tibetan God, and the brain is the mansion of the Yuan God. The kidney can produce bone marrow, and the spinal cord gathers in the cranial cavity to form the brain. "Zang Fu Jing Shu" says: "God of man is trapped in his heart and trapped in his kidney for his purpose." It shows that nourishing the heart and brain is actually nourishing the heart and kidney, and nourishing the heart and kidney is nourishing the spirit. Lack of spirit often leads to listlessness, dizziness, forgetfulness, low voice, lazy speech, slow movement, laziness and fatigue, and weak tongue and pulse. Medicine should nourish the heart and kidney, and take Anshen Zhi Ding Pill and Guishen Pill. The second prescription consists of Ginseng, Poria, Radix Rehmanniae Preparata, Fructus Lycii, Radix Angelicae Sinensis, Eucommiae Cortex, Semen Cuscutae, Poria, Cortex et Radix Polygalae, Sanguis Draxonis, Rhizoma Acori Graminei, Fructus Crataegi and Rhizoma Dioscoreae, 6-65,438+00g each, which is decocted in water for 2 days, with 7-8 doses each time, and the effect is often good. As a preventive medicine, take 3 ~ 5 doses slowly every month. If you use Chinese patent medicine, you can take Anshen Buxin Pill, 2 ~ 3g each time, 1, three times a day, with boiling water, and the course of treatment is the same as the above decoction.

Conclusion: Spirit is the foundation of human life, which should not be underestimated. Essence, qi and spirit, the three pillars of life, nourish each other and are trinity, which can not only regulate themselves, but also regulate artificially.
