The first function is that the liver governs the discharge. Relieving is mainly from the emotional aspect, that is to say, from the emotional aspect. What does it mean? Relaxation means that if the liver meridian is unobstructed and the function of the liver is normal, people will feel happy and comfortable, so people's emotions are mainly caused by the liver; On the other hand, I am angry and depressed, that is, the liver meridian is blocked. Why do some people say that anger hurts the liver? There are many people who say that you should not be angry. Anger hurts the liver, mainly because the liver governs the discharge.
The second function is that the liver controls blood storage, that is, storage. The liver is a blood sac, which can temporarily store human blood and temporarily unused blood in the liver. Another meaning of storing blood in the liver is that it means collection and restraint. For example, if there is a problem with liver function and the ability to control blood is poor, it will cause human bleeding, such as frequent nosebleeds, cerebral hemorrhage and cerebral hemorrhage.
The third function is the most important function of contacting men. That is, the main muscle of liver. What is Zongjin? Clan is the ancestral clan, passed down from generation to generation. Tendon is the big tendon of human body, and Zongjin refers to male genitalia. As we can see from the diagram of liver meridian, the diagram of liver meridian is around the vulva, that is, the meridian, and turns around the vulva once. Therefore, the problem of male reproduction is closely related to the liver meridian.
In fact, the best doctor is yourself, you just need to move your fingers-scrape the liver meridian every day.
Methods of scraping liver meridian:
The palm root pushes from the thigh root to the knee. You can also make a fist and push down with the second joint of four fingers. Push 300 times at a time. If you feel unbearable pain or are afraid of scratching your skin, you can also apply some soap or other grease.
Scraping the liver meridian can eliminate the internal heat in the liver. Hyperactivity of the liver can cause symptoms such as thirst, yellow urine, fever, red tongue with yellow fur and rapid pulse, and some people will also be accompanied by symptoms such as irritability and dry eyes. I have a friend who is typical of hyperactivity of liver function, and almost all the above symptoms can be found in him.
It is suggested that he push and scrape the liver meridian every day, and the liver fire will clear up after two weeks. Later, he said that when he started shaving, he felt unbearable pain at the root of his thigh (this is the activation of meridians), and then the position of pain moved to the inside of his knee (this is the diarrhea of liver fire). After a few days, the symptoms of this pain disappeared, my temper improved a lot, and I was able to sleep at night. The most unexpected thing is that after scraping the liver meridian, the thigh actually lost a circle.
The liver stores blood, which means that the liver also has the function of stopping diarrhea. The machine of human hair growth depends on this function of the liver. If a person is often angry or depressed, it will destroy the liver's function of dispersing stagnation and promoting hair growth, lead to stagnation of qi, and lead to poor blood flow, which will inevitably lead to symptoms of limb weakness and cold limbs. In the long run, it will affect other organs.
Another function of the liver is "the main rib of the liver". The so-called tendon is the elastic fascia connecting limbs and bones. Some people have diseases such as impotence and hemorrhoids. Chinese medicine believes that this is a problem with the function of the liver governing the ribs. The reason is that the liver stores blood. When there is a problem with the liver, there is insufficient qi and blood in the body. Unable to nourish and lubricate the fascia of the body, so there are diseases such as impotence and hemorrhoids.
There are more and more people with liver problems, which is related to many people's bad living habits. For example, the night is the time to sleep at home, especially in the morning 1 ~ 3. When the liver meridian is in season, it is the best time to nourish liver blood. You can't raise liver blood without sleeping. If you drink a lot for entertainment at this time, it will increase the burden on the liver to release toxins. In the long run, your liver will only get worse.
Scraping the liver meridian can not only purge the liver fire, but also open the liver meridian, so that the blood and blood of this meridian are smooth. When the liver meridian is smooth with qi and blood, the function of "liver governing blood storage" will be stronger, and the muscles in the body will be more elastic. How can a person's body be unhealthy and not strong?
In our daily life, knowing some basic knowledge of TCM health care can give us more self-protection measures.
First of all, there will be "pain on both sides". "waist" refers to the part from armpit to waist; Then "inducing the lower abdomen" refers to the abdomen below the navel, and "inducing the lower abdomen" means that the lower abdomen will also be painful, because the liver meridian also passes through the lower abdomen, so it will also cause pain in the lower abdomen and at the same time "make people angry". These all belong to the excess of liver meridian.
Second, it will be "blind". "Liver can see with blood", that is to say, if the liver is full of blood, people can see things, so when people's eyes are blurred, they are actually like liver blood deficiency.
"You can lie down with enough blood." If your feet are nourished by blood, you can walk. The palm of your hand can be caught by blood. If the palm of your hand is full of qi and blood, people will have a grip.
"refers to being able to take pictures of blood", and the role of intake is actually very subtle. For example, a child will grab something to eat at first, and then pick it out one by one. This is an image of the growth of liver qi, and it is an image of liver blood.
If you lie outside and the wind blows, that is, when you wake up and go out, people will be "arthralgia due to blood coagulation on the skin", and arthralgia will occur, because qi and blood are not well spread, and will condense between the skin, form paralysis, and then condense in the pulse.
If you continue to go deeper, it will be "astringent", which means it is a bit like thick blood lipids. If the liver blood coagulates, it will be thick and astringent, and the qi pulse will be blocked. "Those who congeal in the foot are syncope", and those who suffer from the wind are syncope.
Third, "low back pain can't pitch." Some people have a bad back pain, and bending over is particularly uncomfortable. If this happens, people can massage a point-Taichong, which is a very important point of the liver meridian, next to the big toe.
If people are angry, Taichong will feel pain, so when washing feet every night, you can massage Taichong to get rid of the pain. As long as it is too impulsive and painless, this meridian will be fine, even if it is very smooth.
Fourth, "husband hernia, female less swollen." Liver meridian is the only meridian that bypasses genitalia, not only bypassing male genitalia, but also bypassing female genitalia, so that both men and women will have some reproductive system problems.
For example, impotence is a symptom that Chinese medicine generally classifies as liver disease, and the liver governs muscles, and impotence is a problem with the function of muscles.
There is a general direction in the treatment, that is, the meridians must be unobstructed, and the meridians of the kidney can be unobstructed to produce liver wood.
If the human kidney essence is particularly lacking, it will also cause liver disease, so Chinese medicine often says that liver and kidney are homologous. If a person has liver disease, don't simply think it's just the liver, because the root of the liver lies in the kidney. If there is a problem with the kidney, people will still get liver disease, and they are closely related.
This is a message from Huangdi Neijing: when people look at anything, it is best to observe it in many ways and know the cause and effect of it. Nothing will happen suddenly, there must be a cause and effect.
Fifth, the serious development of liver disease will "dry up", that is, a sore throat. The throat is the "main artery", because all the meridians in the upper brain pass through this narrow channel, and the liver meridian also follows the throat.
Therefore, throat disease is not a minor illness, but a serious illness. Many people often suffer from throat diseases. For example, children nowadays are very smart, but they think too much, so children nowadays often suffer from throat diseases.
Sixth, if the liver qi leaks out, it is always on the high side, with excessive expression and insufficient acidity, and people will suffer from bitter taste and dry mouth. For example, some people have a bitter taste when they get up in the morning.
Because the liver and gallbladder are homologous, bitter and a manifestation of pathological changes, all of us should pay attention to every detail in our daily life.
I suggest that you should have a Chinese medicine meridian map and hang it in the office or at home. When you have any pain, look for it on the map first, so that you can express it to the doctor more accurately.
And a good doctor, in the process of consultation, will definitely ask the patient where it hurts. For example, headache, whether it is forehead headache or back pain, bilateral pain or migraine, should be asked clearly, because Chinese medicine believes that headache is not a simple problem.
Headache belongs to spleen and stomach diseases. Some old ladies often wear a belt on their foreheads. They thought it was because of the wind, but in fact it was because they were in a bad mood and had problems with their spleen and stomach. Plus they think too much, so they will have a headache.
If you don't exercise often, your head will be "wrapped" with heavy humidity, just like a wet towel. Headaches on both sides are basically liver and gallbladder problems. The pain in the back of the head is bladder pain related to the liver meridian, and it is also called head pain.
Because the liver meridian reaches the apex, the pain in the brain is the pain of the liver meridian, so this kind of disease is the most intractable of all headaches, because this is the performance of liver blood deficiency, which may be related to his excessive sexual life when he was young.
Seventh, it will "discolor the surface dust". His face is dull, "like earth", as if covered with a layer of dust and expressionless. "Color" represents an expression, such as "I like being angry", which means that emotions will appear on my face. If it doesn't appear, it will "change color", which is liver blood deficiency's performance.
Eighth, it will be "chest full of vomiting." That is, people are often angry, often burp, and the gas is upwelling. In daily life, by massaging the stomach and intestines, it can be solved first, that is, when the qi goes against the trend, you let it go.
If people are severely depressed, the acupoints in Zhongshan will be blocked. At this time, we can stroke the acupoints of Zhongshan with our thumb to let the qi come down. In real life, people suffer a lot because of too many desires. If you are depressed, you should have your own solution to let your anger go smoothly.
If you don't like reading poetry and learning music, you should at least learn some basic medical knowledge to understand your body, which will also be beneficial to your body.
Ninth, it will "have diarrhea". "Smelly" is dinner, "diarrhea" is diarrhea. "Spitting" means not eating grains, but pulling whatever you eat.
The root cause of this disease is "no fire in the lower energizer", and kidney yang is weak, without heat and energy. Diarrhea refers to the weakening of the function of body fluid, that is, the function of body fluid permeating outward is weakened, and this osmotic function can be enhanced by "fire", for example, hot air is "fire".
First, "transverse lacing"
"Transverse lacing" has two postures: ① Lying flat on the ground. Try to spread your legs horizontally for 10 minutes, which requires the help of others to spread your legs. ② Lie on your back, feet up, hips and legs against the wall, feet apart as far as possible, like the English letter V. ..
Second, "Lotus Happy Style"
Spread a blanket on the hard bed or floor, sit down, straighten your right leg, bend your left leg flat on the floor, and stick the center of your left foot on the inside of your right thigh. Then twist your body in the direction of your bent left leg, grab the tip of your right foot with your right hand, and stretch your left arm to the sky, trying to keep your body in a plane.
Third, push the liver meridian.
Sit on the bed. Press the root of the thigh, along the position of the liver meridian on the inner thigh, lay the left leg flat in zigzag, straighten the right leg forward, overlap your hands, push it repeatedly, push it slightly forward to the knee joint for forty or fifty times, and then change the other leg. The method is the same. It can be separated from clothes. If it is on the skin, it is better to apply some moisturizing oil. Push it every night to maintain gynecology, improve facial color, soothe the liver and regulate qi, promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis, and remove internal heat.
There are three meridians in the inner thigh, the liver meridian in the middle, the spleen meridian near the front and the kidney meridian near the back. After sitting down, bend your knees, with the inner thigh facing up, the liver meridian in the middle and the liver meridian pushed in. Of course, it doesn't matter if you push the spleen meridian or kidney meridian a little.
Fourth, "butterfly style"
Sit down. The ginger blanket is under the ass. Then bend your knees so that your feet are opposite and your heels are as close to your lower body as possible. Grab your toes with both hands, open your knees at both ends and stick to the ground as much as possible. This is the butterfly style. When doing this, your back should be straight and your knees should swing rhythmically to two floors.
"Butterfly" can open the meridians on the legs through frequent movements of the legs, so that qi and blood can clean up the sanitary dead angle on the body like a broom. It can not only eliminate inflammation, but also increase the blood supply of pelvis and abdominal cavity, so that the internal organs can be nourished by blood and rejuvenate. This kind of vitality is manifested in the face, which is ruddy, white, spotless and acne-free, and delicate.
V. "leg press style"
Parallel leg press style is divided into leg press style.
This exercise can be done while watching TV on the carpet. Of course, you can also do it in bed. First, straighten your legs together, hook your toes backwards, hold your toes with your hands and press down slowly. Then spread your legs and press down.
There are two other tricks that can also nourish the liver:
1. Close your eyes
The eyes are connected with the liver, which stores blood and moistens the eyes. Therefore, nourishing the liver is to raise the eyes first. Closing your eyes can nourish yin and dispel dryness, especially sitting for 20 minutes after meals, which can protect the liver and promote digestion.
After people finish eating (especially lunch, because they usually eat more lunch), the blood in the body is concentrated in the digestive tract to participate in food digestion activities. Under normal circumstances, you should sit quietly 10~30 minutes after meals, and then do other activities, which can nourish and protect the liver and avoid the deterioration of liver disease.
Usually if the eyes are dry and itchy, it is easy to yawn and shed tears, which is probably caused by the liver. You know, dry and itchy eyes indicate that liver essence and blood are insufficient, and eyes shed tears in the wind. Therefore, when your eyes are tired, you may wish to have a rest with your eyes closed, which can achieve the effect of nourishing the liver and improving eyesight.
On tiptoe
Tiptoe is also a small way to nourish the liver. Kick your feet every day for 10 minutes without interruption, which can promote blood circulation, improve blood oxygen supply, and also have a good shaping effect on legs.
Eat more foods that nourish and protect the liver.
rice. It is found that rice contains all seven kinds of amino acids, and you can get enough to maintain liver function by eating two large bowls per day/kloc-0. Wheat, on the other hand, lacks two essential amino acids, and taking rice as the staple food will be more conducive to the health of the liver.
Grapes. Experts believe that grapes can tonify liver and kidney, promote fluid production and quench thirst, and have a certain maintenance effect on the liver. It is recommended to eat more grapes and nourish the liver in life.
Honeysuckle. If you belong to the crowd with strong liver fire, you can eat a little honeysuckle to get rid of it. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that honeysuckle can clear away heat and detoxify, which can help us calm down liver fire and relieve liver pressure.
Tomatoes The vitamins and lycopene in tomatoes can maintain the liver. It is suggested that people with abnormal liver function can often eat tomato and duck egg soup, which has the function of nourishing yin and can be used as the daily diet of hepatitis patients.
Mung beans in summer make people angry. Mung bean soup can effectively reduce liver fire, and mung bean can also enhance the function of liver detoxification.
Lycium barbarum is from Shennong Materia Medica Classic, and it is recorded that Lycium barbarum nourishes liver and kidney. Lycium barbarum can improve eyesight and essence, protect the liver and improve hematopoietic function, especially eyesight.
