Comply with the four seasons, form and spirit are one.
One: angry.
Man and nature are interlinked and have a corresponding relationship. No matter the four seasons climate, morning and evening, the movement of the sun and the moon, geographical environment and various changes will have an impact on the human body.
(A): the relationship between the four seasons and the human body
The climate change of the four seasons in nature has the greatest influence on biology and human body, and it is multifaceted.
1: Four seasons and emotions
People's emotional changes are closely related to the changes of the four seasons.
(1): In Suwen, there is a saying that "the four qi regulate the spirit";
(2) The Huangdi Neijing Zhi Jie also said: "Four qi can adjust the spirit, and the qi of four seasons in spring, summer, autumn and winter can also adjust the spirit of the liver, heart, spleen, lungs and kidneys";
The above shows that to adjust the spirit, we must follow the changing law of natural growth and collection in order to achieve the relative balance of Yin and Yang.
2. Four Seasons and Qi and Blood
Yang discharges in spring and summer, and qi and blood tend to the body surface, so the skin is loose and sweaty, while yang and blood tend to the body surface in autumn and winter, showing dense and sweaty skin;
3. Four seasons and zang-fu organs and meridians
The four seasons of yin and yang in nature are closely related to the five internal organs in physiology and pathology.
(1): Neijing says: "The liver is prosperous in spring, the heart is prosperous in summer, the spleen is prosperous in the long run, the lungs are prosperous in autumn, and the kidneys are prosperous in winter".
(2): Su Wen said: "Spring is in the meridians, summer is in the meridians, long summer is in the muscles, autumn is in the skin, and winter is in the bone marrow";
Note: "Meridian" refers to the general name of meridian;
"Meridian": the meaning of path. Meridian is the longitudinal trunk line of meridian system engineering, and most of it follows the deep part of human body;
"collateral": the meaning of network. Collaterals are branches of meridians, which are connected vertically and horizontally, everywhere, all over the body and distributed shallowly.
The above shows that the movement of meridian qi changes with the seasons. Therefore, it is necessary to maintain the five internal organs and carry out acupuncture and moxibustion health care treatment according to the law of four seasons change and five forms restraint.
4. Four seasons and onset
The climate of the four seasons is different, and each season has different characteristics, so in addition to general diseases, there are some seasonal frequently-occurring diseases.
Such as myocardial infarction, coronary heart disease, tracheitis, emphysema and other diseases, often occur in late autumn and early winter and when the climate changes suddenly; Schizophrenia is prone to attack in spring and autumn; Glaucoma mostly occurs in winter.
Traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes the idea of harmony and unity between man and nature and human body itself, which runs through health preservation, health care and disease treatment and rehabilitation. For example, according to the characteristics of climate change in the four seasons, Chinese medicine emphasizes that people should actively adapt to natural changes and maintain harmony and unity with nature, so as to maintain the harmonious balance of the human body and mobilize and improve the human body's ability to resist diseases, which is what Chinese medicine calls "keeping healthy qi within, and evil cannot be done."
Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is a holistic view of the integration of man and nature, and a people-oriented method of syndrome differentiation and treatment, which effectively avoids the arms race between medical treatment and disease, and makes TCM have the characteristics of simple, convenient and cheap medical treatment. People say that the treatment of Chinese medicine is green therapy, not only because Chinese medicine is mostly taken from nature, but more importantly, under the guidance of holistic thinking, Chinese medicine emphasizes conforming to nature, harmony and unity, rather than transforming nature and eliminating diseases.
