Therefore, it plays a certain role in the healing of the mind and has a certain health care function. We can call it music health preservation. Music's health-preserving joy originated very early.

Music therapy is an important branch of modern medicine. According to relevant medical sources, music health preservation appeared thousands of years ago. There is a saying in the Book of Changes that is very accurate: "Respond with one voice and seek with the same spirit", which proves to a great extent that the origin of Chinese music health culture is very early and profound. In the Spring and Autumn Period, Yihe was the earliest music health expert. He linked human diseases with music and adopted music therapy to achieve the purpose of treating diseases. Yihe has also become an important promoter to promote music health. Confucius and Zhuangzi, famous in China, also have unique views on music health preservation. Confucius once advocated: "The tenor is based on the festival", and Zhuangzi's "Don't listen to your ears, but listen to your heart; This paper expounds the function of music in health preservation.

During the Tang and Song Dynasties, the development of music entered a new stage, and its health-preserving function was gradually recognized by people, and people began to use music to treat diseases. The Tang and Song Dynasties were the most prosperous stage of poetry. At that time, many poets expounded the efficacy of music in keeping in good health in their poems. Bai Juyi once wrote in a poem: "The nature is good, but the heart is empty. When you hear it, everything comes from your heart; It is easy to get rid of the disease and raise it well. It is especially suitable to listen to' Sanle' to comfort Pulsatilla. " Emphasize the role of music in psychological adjustment. Ouyang Xiu, a famous literary master, has personally experienced the treatment of diseases with music. It can be seen that musical pleasure is closely related to healthy culture.

During the Jin and Yuan Dynasties, Zhang's level of using music to treat diseases was greatly improved, and he advocated using musical instruments to treat diseases more than drugs, and using his pleasure to alleviate the pain caused by diseases.

During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, music therapy developed rapidly, and people had a deeper understanding of the important role of musical pleasure in diseases and its treatment mechanism. The medical book "Jin Jian of Medical Zong" in Qing Dynasty further described in detail how to pronounce the five tones, their characteristics and the mechanism of treating diseases. From the above analysis, we can see that musical pleasure has made brilliant achievements in the medical history of China.

Second, the health function of musical pleasure and the basic theory of traditional Chinese medicine

(A) Music pleasant health and Yin and Yang theory

As one of the oldest cultures in China, the theory of Yin and Yang originated very early. Explain the attributes of things with the relationship of the unity of opposites of all things. Yin and Yang are interdependent, interdependent and interactive dynamic balance, and the theory of Yin and Yang has also become the basis of TCM theory, which runs through the whole TCM theory and is the basis of physical and mental balance. The Taiping Jing of the Eastern Han Dynasty once made a detailed analysis of the origin of the theory of Yin and Yang in the sense of health preservation, and thought that music was in line with the principle of Yin and Yang. Specifically, it was: "The high one is Yang, and the low one is Yin; Yang in major and Yin in minor; Strong is yang, weak is yin; Just for yang, soft for yin; The voice of gold skin is yang, and the voice of silk wood is yin. " The health care function of music pleasure is mainly based on the yin and yang of human body, and the yin and yang of music can just make up for its deficiency, achieve the balance of yin and yang, and achieve the purpose of treating diseases.

(B) Music, pleasure and health, five elements

In ancient books, the five elements are connected with the five tones, and the theory of "harmony of five internal organs" appears, that is, the palace sound enters the spleen, the Shang sound enters the lungs, the horn sound enters the liver, the sign sound enters the heart, and the feather sound enters the kidney. Using the principle of mutual generation and mutual resistance in the five elements, combined with the principle of unity of opposites in the five tones. Music is used to convey people's feelings. The ancients once classified the spiritual function as: "Gong Yin is peaceful and strong, solemn and generous; Shang yin is strong and sad, sad and healthy; The horn sounds long and clear, honest and warm; The voice is smooth, elegant and supple; Feather sound is noble and clear. " This theory is of irreplaceable significance to the happy health of music. It has been recorded in Neijing: "Palace is the voice of the spleen, which is big and harmonious, and sighing also hurts the spleen. You can cure it by making it angry with the excitement of Gong Yin. Business is the voice of the lungs, light and energetic, and those who mourn are also sad. You can cure your troubles by making them happy with the happiness of business voices. Generally speaking, as long as you choose targeted music, its function is very obvious, and you will get different health care effects.

(3) the health care function and seven emotions of music pleasure

The "seven emotions" mentioned here refer to emotions, sadness and fear, and are a summary of the dynamic changes of people's minds. In music, the change of tune can produce a certain tone with the dynamic change of human mind, and the change of seven emotions will cause some diseases. At this time, the role played by music is very unique. Zhang, a famous medical scientist, has his own unique opinion on this, "Cure anger with sorrow, and eliminate sorrow with bitterness." Treat sadness with happiness and make fun of sadness with mistakes; Treat happiness with fear and learn from it with words that force you to die; Use anger to control thinking, insult and bully things; Treat fear with thoughts, and grasp fear with words that worry about others. These five things will be deceptive and strange, and then they will be moving and easy to see. "Only a happy mood can guarantee people's health and longevity. It is through this kind of consciousness and emotion that music affects pathological changes, purifies people's hearts with music, and achieves the purpose of health preservation.

Third, the health care function of music pleasure.

The ability of music to calm the mind has long been recognized, and the harmony and moderation of music can affect people's emotions and achieve psychological peace. Choosing appropriate music and treatment methods can play a certain role in health care. There are many documents that have expounded the peaceful mentality of musical pleasure. Ouyang Xiu once analyzed the peaceful function of music in After the Draft of Shu Mei Yu Sheng, and thought that it could alleviate diseases through the connection with popularity.
