Huangdi Neijing, the earliest medical work in China? Su Wen? "Four Seasons Theory" points out that in winter, the weather is cold, the trees are withered, and all the vitality is in the solar terms, and the yang of the human body will also be hidden in the body with the changes of nature. Therefore, keeping in good health in winter should conform to the law of self-heating, and the key point is to protect the sun by closing Tibet.
Then the consciousness of this passage means that the human body and nature are a unified whole, and the visceral function of the human body will change with the change of nature. The sun's spirit will be collected when it is cold in winter, so we should conform to nature and our own laws and characteristics when preserving health, and do some exercises and behaviors to protect the sun's spirit, rather than violating the laws.
Chinese medicine believes:? Cold is yin evil, which often hurts Yang Qi? So what is yang?
Figuratively speaking, the yang of the human body is like the sun in nature, providing light and heat for everything, so it is the yang that provides these energies for the human body. Cold will harm the yang of human body, damage the yang that provides energy and lose the vitality of metabolism. The natural human body's resistance will drop, and various diseases will appear. Trouble? .
So how to protect the yang in winter?
