(From shallow to deep, you really know how to keep in good health) 1. What is real health care? Nowadays, people pay more and more attention to health preservation. Is keeping in good health to exercise and strengthen your bones and muscles? Or eat and drink enough? The ancients said, "Those who are good at keeping in good health should cultivate their heart, shape and bones." In other words, the real health care is not only to strengthen the body, but also to cultivate and respect the heart, maintain health and repair life, and be healthy physically and mentally. Second, how to maintain health? (1) Comply with nature, and people live in harmony with nature. Now the society is busy and stressed, and there is no time to take care of one's emotions and health. Often when a person succeeds, his mind is distracted and his body is gone. So, how to raise your heart? How to reach the highest level of health care? This requires people to understand our oldest traditional culture-Tao. Tao. Is the foundation of the universe. The key to Taoist health preservation is the unity of man and nature. How to realize the harmony between man and nature? Laozi said that "people everywhere, the earth follows the sky, the sky follows the Tao, and the Tao follows the nature", which is both regular and different in size. The laws of a certain time and space are not immutable. For example, in winter, the north is MINUS ten degrees, and the south is still warm as spring. The "nature" in Taoism refers to this great law in the universe that has no beginning and no end, from small to subtle to infinite. You can't see her, but you experience her all the time. All the year round, spring, summer, autumn and winter, wind, frost, rain and snow, cold coming and summer going ... health can know to let nature take its course, that is, it really begins to approach everything in the world. Only in this way can we achieve the unity of heaven and man. Everyone is a small universe, each with its own uniqueness. And everyone is more or less receiving information and inspiration from nature and the universe. When the small universe of human body is very consistent with the big universe of nature, there is no deviation, which is the highest state of harmony between man and nature. Nowadays, public health care only stays on the basis of health: it is believed that a healthy diet and reasonable exercise can make people healthier. The quality of life will be improved a little. But no one put forward the concept of living longer and living more freely. And many things in Taoism reveal the secret of longevity. There is a certain limit to human life. The so-called limit refers to the age at which natural life can live, which is called "natural year" by Chinese medicine. So, how old should people live? Huangdi Neijing thinks it is 100 years old. For example, Su Wen's Theory of Ancient Naivety says, "You can't go until you are 100 years old." The Book of Rites calls centenarians "Yi". Shangshu also puts forward that "one life is 120 years old", that is, one can live to 120 years old. The great philosopher Wang Chong said: "A hundred years old is a positive number of years. Things still die in autumn, and things are in the right period. " Ji Kang, a famous health expert in Jin Dynasty, thought that "longevity can reach 120, which is true in ancient and modern times". According to the above, people's life span should be around 100- 120 years old. But the reality of society tells us that most people can't reach their natural life span. Why can't you enjoy the "days"? The fundamental reason is that heaven and man can't be one. Can't let nature take its course. What is the most precious thing in life? What is the most precious thing in life? -What is the most precious thing about health? -Healthy! What is the key to keeping in good health? -Of course! If we want to conform to nature, we must first understand nature. In fact, nature is all around us. Every aspect. We observe the animal world. It's winter. Some animals hibernate, while others put on thick fur for the winter. In spring, the earth warms and animals start to eat. Summer is the most active season for all living things. Autumn is a busy time to store food. Animals know how to adapt to natural life better than people. They are natural medical staff. Therefore, scientific research shows that their actual life span is often longer than their "natural year". Therefore, we should learn from animals. In fact, the ancients have been using animals to learn health. For example, Wuqinxi, Bajin and some martial arts are all created on the basis of imitating animals. Nowadays, people think about fame and fortune all the time and compete all the time. Family, society, and many trivial things affect people's minds. If the gods can't get together, health will be ruined. In fact, it is very simple to follow nature. Get up every day when the sun rises. Take a rest every day when the sun goes down. Don't go out to work and drink again. Less socializing, more health and longer life. Simply put, it is "follow the sun". Because everything follows the sun. The sun is hot, glowing, bright, warm and moving. Just like the yang of the human body in Chinese medicine. The sun is the sun of all things. Only by obeying the sun's time can the human body's yang be full. The human body is full of yang. It is natural, healthy and long-lived. Isn't the cultivation of Taoism also to achieve pure yang? For ordinary people, pure yang is not required, as long as the yang is sufficient, it is no problem to enjoy the years. And how to make your yang full comes from this big fireball in the universe-the sun. Shun is prosperous, and reverse is dead. You go to bed early and get up early every day. If you don't sleep every night, getting up in the morning is treason. The most fundamental thing of the unity of man and nature is to realize the perfect combination with nature in time and law. This is actually not difficult to do. Please have less social intercourse and more rest in the evening. Less excitement, more silence. In this way, slowly, the mind will be peaceful, and the body will naturally synchronize with heaven and earth. Real health will begin. Sun Simiao, the king of medicine, once said, "People over forty should keep in good health." At the age of 40, it is the time when the human body goes downhill. Just like a car that has run for 400 thousand kilometers, it needs to be overhauled, otherwise it will be difficult to run normally. Is it true that people should not keep in good health until they are 40 years old? That's not true. We know that human nature has weaknesses. The most deadly one is "it will be precious if it is lost." At the age of 40, it is precisely when health has been lost, so people at this time began to worry, began to maintain health, and began to cherish life. In fact, "things are strong and old" and "things are extreme." People should keep healthy when they are the youngest and most energetic, that is, when they are getting old. We should realize the concept of harmony between man and nature and actively cooperate with it. It's just that young people nowadays, eating, drinking and having fun all day, simply don't realize that they are getting old. We should let people know about their bodies and the Taoist concept of health preservation. Do it to prevent micro-duration. To be "strong, you will know how to raise, and when you are old, you will grow up." Above, we said that conforming to nature is the first step of harmony between man and nature. Let's start with the details. First of all, let's talk about how to maintain health in the four seasons. (2) Four Seasons Health Care (1) Four Seasons Health Care Essentials Four Seasons Health Care has long been recorded in Huangdi Neijing. "In spring, the weather is lively and the tunnel is sprouting. Lie down at night and get up early, take a walk in the green, take a deep breath, take a slow breath and walk slowly, and raise Yangdao to have great ambitions. " In other words, the wind is strong in spring, the first thing to do. If you are lazy, you will be gloomy without exercise, and your yang will not grow up. So people should get up early, take a walk, take a deep breath and breathe. Untie your clothes and hair and walk towards Yang. "Summer, heaven and earth, flashy. Go to bed early and get up early, greet the sun slowly, clear your heart and recuperate, make China beautiful and make it clear. " Summer dampness, chest rib disease, damp-heat phlegm. Stagnant chest ribs. Why? Because summer is the time when heaven and earth intersect and yin and yang are half. Everything is thriving. I should have gone to bed early and got up early, walked against the morning sun, cleared my heart and rested my spirits, and made the newly hung fruit more beautiful and handsome. At this time, it is the time when the voiced voice drops and the clear voice rises. If you violate it, your own small universe will be out of balance. Yin cannot fall, and Yang cannot rise. So it will stay in the coke. The best way is to exercise and sweat to make pores and skin transparent. Don't stay in the air-conditioned room all day. "Autumn, ethos. The atmosphere is obvious. Early to bed and early to rise makes you happy to eat chicken. Calm down, leave your mind inside, and stand quietly outside the court to postpone the autumn sentence. " As is known to all, in ancient times, prisoners on death row were executed in autumn. Because the ancients paid more attention to adapting to nature. Autumn, especially after autumn, is a time of heavy cold. Killing people at this time is also an act of god. The autumn wind is cold, the yang is hard to collect and the yin is full. At this point, the heat and humidity have not dispersed, and there is a dry wind coming. Common cold is prone to illness due to lung, shoulder and back. If you want to avoid it, you have to work like a chicken. Be calm and don't lose your temper. Only in this way can the chill in autumn be alleviated. "In winter, everything is hidden, water and ice. Go to bed early and get up late. Stay in the sun. Hide your heart, hide it inside, keep warm when you are cold, walk slowly in court, and don't vent your anger. " Many animals in nature hibernate. Because winter is the season for everything to recuperate. Pay special attention at this time. Don't be too tired physically and mentally. Go to bed early and get up late. Don't go for a walk until the sun comes out. Exercise should not be excessive, and it is advisable not to sweat when it is slightly hot. Because sweating in winter is equivalent to venting yang. These are the essentials of keeping healthy in the four seasons. Combining some theories and methods of Chinese medicine can make people live a healthy life. There is a saying: spring moxibustion, summer acupuncture, autumn cupping and winter beating. The four seasons are in harmony, is it safe? This is also in line with the laws of the four seasons. Spring is warm at first. Traditional moxibustion is needed to drive away the cold evil in a winter. At the same time, it is warm. In summer, the yang is on the surface, and acupuncture relieves fur. It is windy in autumn and easy to catch a cold. Cupping is the best treatment. It is easy to lag behind in winter. Row until the whole body is hot. Is the best health care. The wisdom of life is actually around us. (2) Life is between dynamic and static. Finally, we should pay attention to two problems. There is a static movement in the four-season health preservation in Neijing. Being quiet means keeping a cool head. No matter what season it is. Be quiet. God can't mess, and his will can't move. It's wrong to be furious, overjoyed and worried. Moving is by no means running fast now, but walking slowly, walking slowly. That is, just like walking, it is by no means a strong physical exercise. Many people want to lose weight and run hard every day to keep fit. But the effect is not good. Excessive intensity exercise is equivalent to consuming one's yang. Health care only needs soothing exercise. Remember this. Do not move. The essentials of keeping healthy in the four seasons are among them. (3) The twenty-four solar terms are divided into four seasons, which are the twenty-four solar terms of a year. We all know that there are 365 days in a year, which are divided into four seasons, twelve months and twenty-four solar terms. How to do the specific 24 solar terms, each solar term and each gas? The following is a summary of 24 solar terms's health songs. The content is as follows: In the cold of beginning of spring, everything is not allowed, but wood is unique. The weather is cold and stagnant, and there is no room for relaxation. The rain is shocking, the foundation is not firm, and water transportation is difficult. Jueyin is ruthless, and the blood does not disperse. The vernal equinox is fine, the moon is high and the wind is clear, and the sun rises. The body is healthy and the wind is endogenous. In the long summer in Grain Rain, there is tender yang and delicate, and yin is full of yang deficiency. The shape is gradually whispering and full of gas. Small and full of mans, born from the heart. Dantian disease Don't worry, Tianjin gas distribution line. There is plenty of sunshine and fertile soil from summer solstice. Heat comes from it. Eat less, if you don't accumulate, the patient will not be born. In the hot summer of early autumn, the anode is filled with gas. Empty, windy. Blood is dry and fever, while wet is lewd. In summer, the Millennium, like golden water, has a heart in prison. Spleen and soil are difficult to transport, and yin and yang are difficult to balance. The autumn equinox is cold and dew, yin and yang correspond, and balance is important. The loss is the work, and the work is not lost. Beginning of winter, first frost, triple energizer, less appetite, dredging meridians and relieving qi stagnation. Snow and snow, cold water hurting trees, frozen soil closing mountains, saturated heart fire, calm. Winter solstice is mild and cold, with strong yin and weak yang. Don't drink too much, wait a minute, restrain yourself. The explanation is: Great Cold beginning of spring: The weather changed from coldest to warmer. Excessive bile is not conducive to lung qi. When lung qi deficiency meets cold, you should catch a cold and have a fever. Shangjiao typhoid fever should be treated with Xin San. Knowing this will make you healthy and live a long life. Grain Rain Jingzhi: Nature at this time is as tired and lazy as just waking up. And our heart and lungs are easy to stagnate, so we should resolve phlegm and promote blood circulation. At this time, spleen and soil are insufficient, and liver qi is easy to stagnate, so exercise more to disperse stagnant qi. Tonifying food should strengthen spleen and nourish stomach. The vernal equinox is clear: at this time, everything recovers, the land is soft, and vegetation begins to grow, but it is still young. So is the human body. Liver, wood, spleen and soil are deficient, so it is advisable to take pungent drugs or foods (such as coriander, fennel, mint, ...). If you eat snacks or drink cold water for a long time, it will increase the burden on the spleen and stomach, and it is easy to catch a cold when you encounter a cold. Children with fever should use drugs to clear their intestines and promote digestion. Long summer, Grain Rain: Rain began to increase and grains began to grow. At this time, the small intestine responsible for digestion began to become active. So we can use moxibustion to moxibustion the small intestine (belly button). At the same time, eat more whole grains and maintain the intestines and spleen and stomach. Treating upper heat syndrome is beneficial to lower jiao, and cold syndrome should be warmed and supplemented. Note that patients with blood cold and kidney cold should not moxibustion the small intestine. Small and full mango seeds: the seeds are gradually full. Pay attention to kidney and large intestine, and take medicine for nourishing yin and benefiting qi. Massage the part below the navel. This can make the heart healthy. For people who are sweating, you can stew bone soup (bone soup should be stewed in two hours). The solstice in summer is a bit hot: it's getting hotter and hotter. Spleen is rich in soil. Spleen dominates the limbs, and six deficiency membrane diseases increase, mostly due to excess heat madness. Diet should be light, not greedy and greasy. Otherwise, the spleen goes against the liver, resulting in thick blood in the liver. Beginning of autumn: It's the hottest and wettest. Extremely hot rheumatism in the body is depressed, and the stomach, large intestine and small intestine are too sluggish due to dampness stagnation. You can't eat fried food in your diet. Eat less meat and eat more to help wet. Summer White Dew: As soon as summer is over, the weather turns cold and everything is attracted. Spleen, soil, liver and wood are also weakened, and the activities of small intestine and bladder are slowed down. Eat more vegetables, light diet, not too heavy. People with intestinal disorder drink bone soup more, and they can drink a little wine to warm their kidneys. Autumn equinox cold dew: the weather is getting colder. People's lungs are full of fire, so medicine should clear the lungs, nourish the liver and protect the large and small intestine. At the same time, you can properly support yang, but don't overdo it. Eat something sour if you are deficient in heart and gallbladder. Beginning of winter: The air is frosty, and winter is coming. Moxibustion can be used to moxibustion small intestine and six deficiency. Care should be taken not to be too bitter, diarrhea, convergent and divergent drugs. So as not to hurt Yang. If you want to clear the coke, you can take porridge cooked with fruit. Diet should be timely and appropriate. Light snow and heavy snow: it began to snow and the trees withered. At this time, the liver and gallbladder of the human body are also the weakest, and the kidney water is the most prosperous. It is best to eat light and delicious food, not too heavy food, so as not to disturb kidney yang. The mood should be quiet and natural, and the breath should be smooth and convergent. The solstice in winter is slightly cold: cold and cold. At this time, the human liver and small intestine are very sensitive. Occasionally inhaling the true qi will hurt the chest and diaphragm, leading to cough and asthma. Eat more sweet and fishy food to keep warm, avoid catching a cold, and let those diseases such as anemia and lymphadenopathy heal themselves. The above is how we should keep in good health during the 24 solar terms in a year. Adapt to the weather and nature. You can stay healthy forever! We say that the general program of family health care is to conform to nature and blend in with it. I have also talked about the methods of keeping in good health in four seasons and keeping in good health in 24 solar terms, but these are just days, and there is still a lack of "geographical location" and "harmony between people". Third, what is the right place for people? Simply put, it is to adapt to regional changes. In the right place. For example, the population in the north is heavy, Sichuanese like spicy food, and the diet in the south is light. Every place has its own local characteristics. We should live according to the characteristics of this place. But not against it. In recent years, the stomachs and intestines of young people in the north have suddenly become much worse than before. Many young people have gastrointestinal diseases. Why? This is related to the fact that there are Sichuan restaurants all over the street. Sichuan cuisine pays attention to spicy and delicious flavor. It is delicious. But people forget to control themselves while enjoying delicious food. Sichuan cuisine is a local feature of Sichuan. However, the Sichuan area is low-lying and humid, and the human body is wet and heavy, so spicy food is needed to discharge wet poison. But northerners born and raised in the north always alternate between dry and wet. Eating too much spicy food is bound to get angry and get acne. After a long time, the stomach will be bad. So don't just eat delicious food, but pay attention to combining it with your living environment. There is an old saying in the north, "Eat radish in winter and ginger in summer without a doctor's prescription". Why do you eat radish in winter? Because pasta is the main food in the north, and noodles are hot, radish is needed to solve its heat toxicity. Can also be appetizing. But with the improvement of living standards. Winter is no longer just eating radish, cabbage and potatoes. We can eat whatever we want. However. Is the physical quality of our people better than those who used to eat only radish and cabbage? No. On the contrary, things are getting worse. Have we ever wondered why? Actually, it's because people don't live according to their geographical location. If you are a northerner, you will have a unique system of northerners, and you must conform to the lifestyle of northerners. If you eat seafood all day like southerners. Then the disease is not far from you. The so-called "geographical location" is to conform to geography. Southerners don't want to live in the north, and northern Renye Fang doesn't want to learn from the south. Everyone sticks to his principles. Keeping your local living habits is the best way to keep fit. The right time, the right place and the need for harmony. How to combine people? In my heart. You know how to maintain and keep in good health, but it's no use fighting with people all day. No matter how good you said before, no matter how good you do. Be quiet. Qi can be even. When the spirit is calm, God can gather and be full. You can live long by injecting sperm into people. It is said that you should study hard. With your heart, with your heart, you don't mean to make your heart move, but to make your heart calm. Only by moving forward in silence can we reach spiritual saturation. A real boxer punches with his heart. A real calligrapher writes with his heart. If you don't work hard, everything you do is lifeless. No matter how hard it is, it is easy to finish it. It is valuable to keep an optimistic attitude. Create your own positive and happy life with your heart. The intention here is not to move your mind and play tricks. But the truth from the heart. If you are sincere to others, others will be sincere to you. You put the health care methods mentioned above into practice. Stick to it, step by step. The harvest will naturally follow. Not only health, but also the ultimate goal of human beings-longevity. Heaven and earth, communicate with people. Weather, geographical location and human harmony. You can live a long life. Fourth, my life is in my hands and my physical and mental health is in my own hands. Taoism said, "My life is in my hands." I believe that people's life and death can be controlled by themselves. I emphasize that individuals should take the initiative to cultivate themselves to achieve longevity, and at the same time deny the negative thoughts of resignation. This view of life and death seems to be "against nature", which is essentially the highest state of "conforming to nature", which is also an important ideological basis of Taoist health preservation. It should be noted that Taoist health preservation is an ancient science with strong vitality, and paying attention to the role of objective factors in health and longevity is not its biggest feature. The focus of Taoist health preservation is actually how to give full play to people's subjective initiative under the existing objective conditions in order to achieve the purpose of health preservation. That is, don't believe in life, believe in yourself. Even if I die at five o'clock, I will "refuel my life." Through their own subjective efforts and self-cultivation, to achieve the purpose of health and longevity, enjoy life. There is an interesting short message that says: Life, playing at the age of 0, growing up happily at the age of 65, confused at the age of 438+00, struggling at the age of 30, looking back at the age of 50, returning home at the age of 60, playing mahjong at the age of 70, sunbathing at the age of 80, lying in bed at the age of 90, 65,438+000. If you don't want to live such a mediocre life, then from now on, learn China culture, learn Taoist health-keeping concepts and methods, and add fuel to your life and enjoy it. Pray for people to live a long and happy life.
