What are the health-keeping functions of Qigong? 1. Preventive care.
Huangdi Neijing says:? Healthy memory, evil can't do it? ,? Hide the spirit in it to stay away from the disease? . This shows that practicing Qigong has the functions of disease prevention, health care and physical fitness. Modern research has proved that the function of practicing qi can obviously eliminate physical and mental fatigue, restore physical strength and energy, improve work efficiency, enhance immunity and prevent diseases. With the development of society, people's daily life is getting faster and faster, and their psychological tension is getting higher and higher. Long-term psychological stress will reduce the body's immunity, cause the body's physiological dysfunction, and lead to functional and even organic lesions. Therefore, being good at learning to relax in a timely manner in a tense rhythm is very necessary for fitness and disease prevention. Qigong exercise can effectively play this role.
2, prolong life
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that when people get old, the yin and essence are weak, the true elements are gradually lacking, and various functions of the body are gradually declining. There are also some people who are old before they are old for various reasons. Practice has proved that Qigong can mobilize and exert the internal potential of the body, delay or delay aging, prevent the mental decline of the elderly, improve physical and mental health and achieve the effect of prolonging life.
Step 3 cultivate temperament
China's traditional Qigong emphasizes the cultivation of mind, that is, the optimization of people's mood, will and personality. This is not only the premise of getting good results in practicing martial arts, but also the direct benefit that can be gradually obtained through qigong exercise. Practice tells us that under the quiet state of Qigong, people will experience great pleasure and comfort, not only physical comfort, but also a very comfortable mood, and the whole body and mind are immersed in a transcendental artistic conception. Long-term adherence to qigong exercise can play a role in cultivating sentiment, broadening mind, cultivating will, shaping sound personality and enhancing psychological adaptability. Practice can also make people feel comfortable and efficient, and it is also conducive to improving interpersonal relationships and improving mental health.
Step 4 develop intelligence
Practicing Qigong can develop people's intelligence, which is clearly discussed in ancient Qigong classics. With the deepening of qigong research, this role of qigong has been gradually confirmed. Through qigong exercise, you can quickly eliminate brain fatigue, make you energetic, focused, sensitive, enhance your memory, improve your thinking ability, and thus improve your intelligence. Experts believe that Qigong may become an effective means to improve human intelligence.
Taboos for practicing Qigong 1, Taboos? Fake?
Do you want to practice? Really angry? Avoid wrong thoughts and behaviors. Therefore, to practice acrobatics, you must first become a real person; To tell the truth, do practical things and be honest can cultivate the true qi. Some artificial words and actions in practice are also unacceptable.
2. Avoid greed
Do you have to abstain from greed, money, fame, wealth, debauchery? If you have greed, your heart will not calm down, so your practice is not good. If there is greed, there will be greed, which may cause a lot of trouble and lead to many contradictions. Greed is an evil thought, and training should be correct and pure. Greed is the root of all evil. If there is greed, there will be mistakes, and mistakes will be punished. Therefore, it is very important for practitioners to avoid greed.
3. Avoid irritation and irritability.
Many diseases are caused by anger, irritability and irritability, because emotions affect the normal physiological functions of the human body and will produce pathological conditions for a long time. A yogi who can't avoid being angry and upset may be ruined after years of practice.
4, avoid complacency, avoid boasting.
As the saying goes, a wise head makes a close mouth. People with real skills are often modest and cautious, while people with little skills are prone to complacency, boasting and exaggerating their role. Everything is for the sake of patients, so we must make a good ticket. These are the taboos of practitioners. It should be noted that the development of medicine is endless. Things in the world are different and ever-changing. Therefore, at any time, we should leave room for what we say and do, so as not to interfere with our self-cultivation and cause adverse consequences.
5. Avoid willfulness
Practice advocates letting nature take its course, everything develops according to objective laws, and acting beyond objective laws by subjective imagination is called willfulness. For example, the size of a week should be natural and the work should be natural. If you don't have enough time, it will be unnatural to communicate with your subjective thoughts forcibly, and you may accumulate qi and blood somewhere, or have a headache, dizziness, pain or fullness somewhere. In addition, willfulness should be avoided in daily work, because willfulness is easy to fall into a dead end and get angry easily, causing confusion and affecting the training effect.
Step 6 reduce sexual intercourse
The three treasures of the human body are essence, qi and spirit. Only by exercising can you be vigorous and healthy, and you can achieve the goal of health and longevity. If a yogi does not abstain from abstinence, he will inevitably consume essence, resulting in deficiency of kidney yin and loss of kidney essence. At this rate, you can't practice Qigong well. I'm afraid you'll get a lot of diseases. Some people's practice effect is not obvious or their long skills are slow, which is related to this. Acrobatics should reduce sexual intercourse.
7. Violation of acrobatic rules
Some methods can't be practiced together, because different information between methods with high information content will have greater reaction. Some practitioners think that the more they practice the Dharma, the better, so they practice several kinds indiscriminately, some in the morning and one at night; Or put together the characteristics of semi-different techniques to practice. Practice like that, even if the essence of the original methods is pieced together into one, it is also a hodgepodge. Practicing one method may not have great effect, but it will still cause problems. Because there is one here? Qihe? With what? Angry? The disharmony of qi will not only offset each other, but also produce adverse reactions, and more seriously, problems will occur. For example: thin? Male, 49 years old, no disease, migraine and insomnia caused by various sports.
8. The mind is too persistent and unnatural when practicing.
The purpose of practicing Qigong is nothing more than health and longevity, developing intelligence and function. To achieve any of these four goals, we must first practice the patency of meridians in our body, the balance of qi, the normal operation of qi and blood, etc., before we can achieve our goals in our body? Yin Pingyang is the secret, and the spirit is the rule? . Therefore, the best state of human acrobatics is to achieve the natural balance of the baby in the mother's body without worldly desires's interference. If the idea of practicing martial arts is too heavy and too dead, will it destroy the original appearance of the human body? Natural balance? , it will produce certain symptoms, it will cause practice deviation.
9. Feel scared in practice.
The quietest time to practice qigong is also the time when you are most afraid of being scared. Because people are closer to the balance of yin and yang than usual in a state similar to sleep, if they are suddenly frightened and break the balance of yin and yang in the body, people will feel uncomfortable. Neijing? Su Wen said: Surprise leads to confusion? 、? Gong is angry? ; Sudden fright will make you feel helpless, helpless and worried, so you feel panic and palpitation. Excessive fear will make the kidney qi unstable, and the qi will leak down, leading to incontinence, backache and leg weakness, nocturnal emission and so on. If these symptoms do not disappear for a long time after being frightened, it is ineffective to continue practicing Qigong, which may be biased.
