The spring rain surprised the spring and the valley.
Summer is full, summer is full, and summer is hot.
Autumn dew and autumn frost.
It snows in winter, it snows in winter, and it's a little cold in winter.
Rain is the second of the 24 solar terms. When it began to rain, the rainfall gradually increased, nourishing everything. There is life only when there is water. Beginning of spring is a festival, and rain is gas.
Yang is raised in spring and summer, and everything begins to sprout. Spring has come, the temperature has risen and the rainfall has increased. At this time, the overall climate is still cold and humid, so beware of the cold in spring and the rise of liver qi, which is easy to damage the spleen and lungs.
12 hour rain solar term corresponds to Yin Shi, that is, 4 o'clock in the morning is similar to the rain solar term in a year. Corresponding to the 12 meridian is the lung meridian.
Yin Shi, from 3: 00 to 5: 00, the lung meridian is in season. Yin, through "play", is about to emerge from Yin, and the ancients are about to break through the ground after seeds germinate. At this time, the yang is immature, so we should pay attention to cold and warmth, protect the growth and development of the yang, and pay attention to preventing respiratory diseases (lung diseases) and digestive diseases (spleen and stomach diseases), which is what the ancients said: "Spring covers the autumn."
Key points of rainwater health care:
The way to preserve one's health in Huangdi Neijing: "Ancient people, those who know, learn Yin and Yang, and the tricks of counting, eat moderately, live regularly, and don't rush, so they can be in harmony with God and die at the age of 100."
1, daily life often
The ancients often made it at sunrise, and entered the day and rested. Modern people often stay up late and get insufficient sleep. We know that human's work and rest has its internal biological clock. Long-term violation of the laws of nature, easy to premature aging, staying up late to hurt yin and consume yang, shorten life expectancy. Therefore, it is necessary to go to bed early and get up early as possible in order to conform to nature.
2. Eat well and drink well
Rain and solar terms lead to liver-qi, so liver-qi is over spring, nourishing yang in spring and summer, so don't suppress it. Therefore, eat less sour, astringent or salty things, and eat more foods that are sweet, soothing the liver, strengthening the spleen and moistening the lungs, such as bamboo shoots, lilies, lotus seeds, coix seed, yam, Toona sinensis buds and milk.
Rain and solar terms are easy to get angry. Once you get angry, you can eat radish, bitter gourd, kelp and pear properly, or soak honeysuckle, houttuynia cordata, purslane and gardenia in water.
3, psychological counseling: liver qi.
Huangdi Neijing said: "All diseases are born of qi"; Physicians of past dynasties advocated: "A good doctor must treat his heart first, then his body." ; "Sometimes cure, often help, always comfort."
During rainy and rainy solar terms, liver qi gradually rises. Try not to beat and scold children in this solar term, and don't suppress the growth of liver qi too much. If you retreat psychologically at this time, it will easily affect the growth and development of a year. You should encourage them more, make rules first, and educate them positively to make them optimistic and positive.
4. Establish the concept of preventing diseases: TCM body surface stimulation therapy.
Everyone should lock the door when they go out, in order to prevent theft. A country has a national defense and an army. The army should train and prepare for war, and so should the human body. We should give TCM body surface stimulation therapy regularly, exercise our immune system at all times and establish the concept of disease prevention.
Therefore, on the basis of changing unhealthy lifestyles, such as smoking, drinking, staying up late, lack of exercise, being in a bad mood, overeating spicy and greasy, overeating, etc., we can also cooperate with acupuncture, medicated diet, scraping, cupping, moxibustion, Chinese medicine foot bath, ear acupuncture and other body surface stimulation therapies to achieve the purpose of preventing diseases.
