From the point of view of traditional Chinese medicine, Shihai is the time when the human body has the weakest yang and the most vigorous yin. Shihai fell asleep, just like animals go into hibernation. At the time of Hai, he was on duty in the triple energizer meridian, and qi and blood flowed through the triple energizer. Sanjiao, the largest of the six fu organs, is the channel for running raw gas and has the function of controlling human gasification. The original qi, including Yuan Yin's qi and Yuan Yang's qi, is the motive force of human life activities. It originates from the kidney and hides under the umbilicus, and spreads all over the body through the triple energizer meridian, promoting the activities of various organs and viscera.
Therefore, triple energizer is related to the whole process of digestion, absorption, distribution and excretion of Shui Gu subtle and water-liquid metabolism. Therefore, after entering the stone sea, the work of dredging waterways began as soon as I went to work. Sleeping in the sea, "blood returns to the liver when people lie down", blood returns to the liver, blood is readjusted in the liver, and blood is filtered and maintained again, so that the pulse condition can be adjusted. The next day, "there is blood in your hands to do and blood in your fingers to grasp" is extremely beneficial to relieve stress, relax your spirit and self-regulation and repair of endocrine. Therefore, in the sea, you should put aside your study and work, unload the fatigue of the day and get ready to go to bed. You can play some soothing music, soak your feet in hot water, or get in close contact with your lover, all of which can help you sleep well.
After 23: 00, it is midnight. According to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, when the child is a mouse (23 ∶ 00 ~ 1 ∶ 00), it symbolizes that the vitality of the human body is the weakest at this time. But although weak, it is still very energetic. Sleeping at this time is to keep this vitality. At this time, qi and blood flow through the gallbladder meridian, which is the most abundant and the kidney meridian is the weakest. People who don't get enough sleep at night, especially those who stay up late to work overtime and don't pay attention to sleep well at noon, are prone to liver damage. If you want a good kidney, you must never stimulate it at the weakest time. You need to keep a regular routine, especially for men. Don't stay up late. So please try not to fall asleep after 10.
At the same time, when the child is young, the blood is in the gallbladder. The gallbladder meridian is on duty, and its job is to generate yang. The gallbladder meridian rises with the yang of the five zang-organs and six fu-organs, and the body repairs itself. It is the time for everything to be renewed, so you must go to bed at this time. In Shihai, anyone who can fall asleep wakes up the next morning with a clear mind and a rosy face. And those who often stay up at midnight, even those who are still fighting after midnight, always look pale. This kind of people often thicken and crystallize due to abnormal bile metabolism, leading to diseases such as gallstones.
If you sleep in Shanghai, by the ugly time, that is, 65438+ 0: 00 am to 3: 00 am, you have already entered a deep sleep. Blood enters the liver and the liver meridian starts to work, which is also the best time for the liver to rest. We need to take good care of the liver. Because the liver is our important detoxification organ, "the liver is the foundation of the extreme", we are most afraid of fatigue. After a day's work, it also worked hard all day. Only through a good rest can it work better for us. If you still want to work at this time, your liver will have problems over the years, among which hepatobiliary inflammation and skin problems are the most common. In particular, flight attendants, nurses, freelancers, artists, night shift workers and other people who often need to stay up late in their work or life, because their sleep time violates the laws of nature, they can't get timely liver repair and adequate rest, and they are prone to the sequelae of caring for each other.
People who lack "sense of meridians" and "opening the liver to the eyes" often show red eyes, dryness, dizziness and tinnitus. There will also be insomnia, MUBI, emotional irritability, fidgeting, hair loss, baldness and so on. , face acne, acne, age spots, and women are prone to early menstruation, bright red color, small amount, or never come. All these indicate that there is something wrong with your liver. What you should do most is to adjust your sleep time in time and go to bed early.
Therefore, a good sleep can create a good rest environment for the liver, so that the liver can rest after a hard day. If you can't change your work schedule temporarily because of your work relationship, you can usually drink more detoxification tea that clears away heat and moistens dryness, benefits qi and nourishes the liver. If you can adjust your schedule, try to sleep for 4 hours between 23:00 and 3: 00 in the morning to protect the liver, let blood flow to the liver and strengthen the repair of liver cells. At this time, before going to bed, I missed the good opportunity of liver and kidney maintenance. The homology of liver and kidney is the basis of storing and nourishing essence. Without these, talking about health preservation is like castles in the air, and some of them are illusory.
Corresponding to the four seasons of the year, Shihai can be said to sleep in winter, children in spring, clowns in summer, and Yin Shi (3: 00 am to 5: 00 am) comes after clowns. At this time, the heart and lungs start, blood enters the lungs, and it is the turn of the lungs to be on duty. Why do many heart patients often die at three or four in the morning? This truth is well explained by the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, because in Yin Shi, both qi and blood belong to the lung, which is the prime minister of the human body. Its duty is to transport the new blood produced by the liver meridian to various viscera to ensure the supplementary supply of other viscera. At this time, sleep is an important stage of harvesting qi and blood energy. Just like autumn, it is a scene of harvest, and all the five zang-organs are enjoying the joy of harvest. At this time, if you still don't sleep with your red eyes open, your lungs will fail, your internal organs will not be harvested, and you will be "hungry" in winter.
