It is believed that essence, qi and spirit are the basis of human life activities. People who paid attention to health preservation in ancient times, such as Peng Zu, Confucius and Laozi. They all call "essence, qi and spirit" the three treasures of the human body, so maintaining essence, qi and spirit is the main principle of health and longevity, which the ancients attached great importance to.

Essence is the foundation of the body. Without this basic fine substance, there can be no human body. Said that parents "God" combined with each other and gave birth to us. What constitutes our human body is essence.
"Jing" has two sources. One is inherited from parents, that is, innate essence, which is the root of life; The other is the nutrition we absorb after birth, that is, the essence of Shui Gu, which is an important source to supplement the innate essence. With it, our innate essence can be full and vigorous, and we can play the greatest role.
In a word, "essence" is very important to everyone. With "essence", it can be tangible. If a person wants to live a long and healthy life, he must maintain the innate kidney essence. We should also improve the essence of Shui Gu the day after tomorrow.

The importance of "Qi" in the human body is self-evident, and there is "Qi" everywhere in the human body. Once there is no gas, people will "die" and have no life.
"The innate spirit of heaven and earth is formed by the method of four seasons." It means that man, like everything else, is the product of the regular operation of the natural qi of heaven and earth. Human's internal organs, human's physiology, the four seasons and the movement law of nature are all inseparable from qi. Qi is an extremely important concept throughout Huangdi Neijing. The word "qi" has appeared more than 3000 times in the book, and it is the most frequently used word. The whole "Su Wen". The synopsis of the golden chamber is actually about this kind of gas.
Generally speaking, qi is invisible. But an absolute unit. Since it is invisible and exists, how can we prove its existence? Generally speaking, Chinese medicine believes that when people's qi deficiency is gone, they will feel tired, weak, weak and listless. If you are treated with qi tonic, you will get better or recover soon. If you are popular, you will be full of energy, strong, loud and healthy.
Qi comes from essence, and essence depends on the essence of grains to produce qi. The essence of grain is produced by gasification, so essence can be angry and gas can produce essence. The expression of "Qi" is mainly functional, and Qi is intangible and functional. "Essence" is tangible and material. If people's "Qi" weakens, the function of organs will also weaken, resulting in corresponding diseases. If you are exhausted, your life will be in danger.
Qi can be divided into healthy qi and evil qi. Healthy qi promotes people's normal physiological functions, while pathogenic factors will destroy this "healthy qi". Soul fulcrum "Decisive Qi" says that "all diseases are born of Qi". Qi here refers to evil.
god
God is strong when he is full, weak when he is weak, alive when he is alive, and dead when he is gone.
Among the three treasures of the human body, "God" is the most important, because it commands the essence and is the supreme commander of all life activities such as spirit, will, perception and movement. Including soul, spirit, will, ambition, thinking, meditation, wisdom and other activities of God. These activities can reflect people's health. For example, a person's bright eyes are the concrete embodiment of a person's "God".
Only the existence of God can lead to all human life activities. As the ancient hygienist emphasized, "a powerful god must live longer." The "strong mind" here actually refers to a sound brain and mind. Only a sound brain and mind can dominate life activities, viscera coordination, body movements and facial features, and the whole body is in a normal physiological state of yin and yang balance.
The most important thing is to maintain inner peace, tranquility and happiness, and to maintain a good mood of body and mind.
Huangdi Neijing clearly pointed out that the key to nourishing the spirit is to eliminate distractions and maintain a simple and single-minded heart. For example, Huangdi Neijing emphasizes that "there is no peaceful day, the true qi follows, the essence is self-sufficient, and the disease is flat?" The "sky" here refers to silence, and the "light" refers to simplicity, not being confused by material desires. Being able to "indifferent to nothingness" will make you feel peaceful.
In addition, in the course of life, God is easy to move, easy to consume, difficult to be quiet and difficult to remember. Therefore, many health care experts in the past dynasties advocated keeping fit, preventing diseases, resisting aging and prolonging life through rest, thus forming a spiritual school in health care discipline. It is said that "silence is the best place in the world", and the god of human body is no exception. Only silence can keep its normal function. There is also a knowledge that "silence hides the mind and impatience disappears", which fully shows that silence is helpful to potential self-defense, while the restlessness of body and mind will lead to the leakage and even death of the mind.
