"Spring in March, this is Chen. Heaven and earth are born, everything is glorious, lying at night and getting up early, striding towards the court and walking slowly, thus making life, living without killing, giving without taking, rewarding without punishment, which is the response of spring and the way to keep fit; Otherwise, it will hurt the liver, it will be cold in summer and there will be few elders.
Xia San month, this is a sweet performance. Heaven and earth are in harmony, all things are flashy, they lie down at night and get up early, they are insatiable for the sun, they are not angry, and Huaying shows off their desires. If you love the outside, this summer should be the way to grow up. On the contrary, it is sad, autumn is malaria, few people get it, and winter solstice is very sick.
Autumn and March, this is called tolerance. The weather is urgent, the atmosphere is clear, you lie down early and get up early, having fun with chickens, so that you can be calm, slow down the autumn punishment, converge, calm the autumn air and clear your lungs. This autumn atmosphere should be the way to raise and harvest; On the contrary, it will hurt the lungs, have diarrhea in winter, and few people serve Tibet.
In winter and March, this is a closed Tibet. Water and ice lie on the ground, don't disturb the sun, lie early and get up late, and wait for the sun, so if you have selfishness, if you have it, it will be warm when you drive away the cold, and it will not leak skin, which will make you angry. This winter air should be the way to raise Tibet; In turn, it hurts the kidney, and it is flaccid and soft in spring, and there are fewer people born. "
These four paragraphs tell us what to do in spring, summer, autumn and winter to keep fit, that is, to adapt to the climate change of the four seasons. Due to the fluctuation of yin and yang in nature, the climate changes in four seasons, namely, spring temperature, summer heat, autumn cool and winter cold, have formed the phenological states of spring opening, summer opening, autumn opening and winter storage, and the phenological characteristics of spring growing, summer growing, autumn harvest and winter storage. People should adjust their mental mood and daily activities according to the biochemical laws of yin and yang in the four seasons. Specifically, the spring annals are comfortable and pleasant, the summer annals are lively and cheerful, the autumn annals are comfortable and quiet, and the winter annals are subtle and quiet. In spring, you lie down and get up early at night, and in summer, autumn and winter, you lie down and get up late. This section not only emphasizes that health can only be maintained by conforming to nature, but also points out that the adoption of each season is also related to the health status of the next season. If it is violated, it will easily lead to the next seasonal illness, and it also embodies the preventive medicine thought of "treating the disease before it happens".
In today's society, we should exercise in spring and summer and stay still in autumn and winter, which is closely related to the external environment in spring, summer, autumn and winter. Modern people think that keeping in good health means soaking some "health tea" in a water cup, but it didn't work in ancient times. As mentioned above, there are different methods in spring, summer, autumn and winter. Take sleeping as an example. In spring and summer, it is required to lie down at night and get up early. Actually, there is a difference. Sleep at night, get up early in spring, because the sun's spirit begins to sprout in spring, but it hasn't reached its peak, and the yin begins to decline from prosperity, but it hasn't reached its lowest value. Although it is required to lie down at night, it should not be too late. Generally, it is more appropriate to sleep at night 10, that is, in the middle, it is more appropriate to get up at 6: 30 in the morning, which was the time of hair in ancient times. Sleeping during this period will not consume too much yang, but also ensure the cultivation of yin, thus achieving the purpose of health preservation. In summer, you lie down and get up early at night. Due to the excess of yang in summer, the accumulation of yang in nature reaches its peak and yin reaches its lowest value, so you can sleep at 1 1 at night and get up at around 6 am. In this way, on the one hand, it conforms to the general environment of yang flourishing and yin declining to the greatest extent, on the other hand, it can also reduce the loss of Yin Qi and achieve the purpose of health preservation. In autumn and winter, the situation is just the opposite. In autumn, you go to bed early and get up early. In autumn, the yang has not dropped to the lowest level, and the yin has begun to grow and has not yet reached its peak. So it is more appropriate to go to bed at 9: 30 in the evening and get up at 6: 30 in the morning. On the one hand, the extension of sleep time accords with the characteristics of autumn harvest, on the other hand, it also avoids the loss of yang to the greatest extent. It takes longer to go to bed early and get up early in winter. I go to bed at 9 pm and get up at 7 am. On the one hand, it conforms to the characteristics of "hiding" in winter, on the other hand, it also ensures that the yang will not be excessively consumed.
Of course, the above sleep periods are also listed in combination with the needs of modern people to go to work. Many experts list much more demanding than this. If they can't do it, there is no need to list it. It can be said that work needs to be done and health needs to be maintained. Most people are now in sub-health state, which may have a lot to do with the decline of traditional Chinese medicine. Everyone thinks that Chinese medicine is pseudoscience and untrustworthy, but as long as it persists for a period of time, it will have good results. As far as the "results-only theory" is concerned, as long as the results are good, science is not important.
Thank you. I'm a little brother of Chinese medicine. Starting from today, I will share my knowledge and experience in learning Chinese medicine health preservation with you. Please criticize and correct me.
