Understanding of TCM health preservation

Health preservation is a science, a traditional knowledge of China, with theories and methods. This ancient learning has been paid more and more attention by people today, and it is rejuvenating. Health preservation is an integral part of Chinese medicine, which embodies the theory of "preventing disease". It is to study how individuals can arrange their life, work, study and rest reasonably through self-cultivation, and carry out appropriate exercise, diet and bait conditioning, so as to achieve the purpose of preventing diseases, delaying aging and achieving health and longevity. From the analysis of health care methods, the basic contents of health care include physical and mental cultivation, exercise, drug bait tonic and disease elimination. Among them, preventing and treating diseases is an important content.

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the occurrence of diseases is the result of the struggle between good and evil in the internal and external environment of the human body, and is caused by the imbalance of yin and yang and qi and blood. The internal and external environment, such as man and nature, human dirty and dirty, dirty and fu-organs, is an organic whole. Under the influence of some pathogenic factors, the balance of yin and yang in the body is destroyed, which leads to diseases.

Now Chinese medicine divides the pathogenic factors into five categories:

1. Natural factors: including seasonal factors, wind, cold, heat, humidity, dryness, fire, geographical factors and biological factors.

2, life factors: including emotional factors * * * happiness, anger, worry, thinking, sadness, fear, seven emotions * * *, rest, diet, poison, environment and so on.

3. Unexpected factors: mainly refers to trauma, some physical factors and some chemical factors.

4. Pathological factors: refers to pathological products formed in the process of disease and become pathogenic factors, including phlegm, blood stasis, stones, etc.

5. Physical factors: There are potential pathogenic factors in the function, structure and metabolism of human body.

Due to the influence of one or more of the above-mentioned pathogenic factors, the imbalance of yin and yang of viscera with five internal organs as the core in human body leads to various diseases. For example:

Kidney deficiency: weakness of waist and knees, alopecia, gray hair, amnesia, tinnitus, night sweats, nocturnal emission, irregular menstruation, bone metabolism disorder, bone formation function decline, and osteoporosis and fracture are prone to occur.

Spleen deficiency: after eating, there will be fullness, abdominal cold pain, diarrhea, loose stools, decreased digestive function, anemia, shortness of breath and susceptibility to infectious diseases.

Liver deficiency: dizziness, numbness of limbs, pallor, dull pain in chest and hypochondrium, dry eyes, decreased vision, etc.

When you have a guilty conscience, you will have symptoms such as palpitation, shortness of breath, cold limbs, edema, fatigue, restlessness and insomnia.

Lung deficiency: cough, dry throat, blood in sputum, night sweats, shortness of breath, fatigue, etc.

The essence of various health care measures such as diet, medicine, exercise, entertainment, psychology and daily life is to maintain or restore the balance of yin and yang of the five internal organs of the human body. The role of traditional Chinese medicine in health care and conditioning

The role of TCM health preservation

First, prevent diseases. The essence of disease prevention is to prevent the imbalance of yin and yang in the five internal organs of the human body and keep the balance of yin and yang in the five internal organs of the human body, so that people will not get sick. Therefore, Chinese medicine should have regular physical examination and conditioning, and adjust immediately once there is imbalance.

Second, get rid of the sub-health state. Due to the intense work, fast pace of life and great mental stress of modern people, many people are in a sub-health state. If you recuperate in time, you can recover quickly. Otherwise, if left unchecked, it will turn into a disease, which is likely to lead to serious diseases.

Third, beauty and beauty. Young women, in particular, can maintain the balance of yin and yang in their internal organs through TCM health care, so that they can quickly improve the functions of breathing, digestion, metabolism, microcirculation, endocrine and immune system, and achieve the beauty effect of rosy complexion, less wrinkles and delicate and moist face.

Fourth, self-healing diseases. All human diseases, including cancer, are caused by the imbalance of yin and yang in the internal organs. If the disease is cured by traditional Chinese medicine, it can restore the balance of yin and yang of internal organs and improve the immune function of human body. Even incurable diseases, including cancer, will gradually recover.

Fifth, delay aging. According to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, people's aging is caused by the deficiency of viscera, such as deficiency of kidney-qi, deficiency of innate nature and deficiency of spleen-qi. Through TCM health care and conditioning, the deficiency of viscera such as kidney and spleen can be slowed down, thus delaying aging, and people will appear more energetic and younger, so people who insist on health care and conditioning for a long time are not easy to get old.

"Moisten things quietly, the king has no near work", and health care must be adhered to in order to produce results.

Misunderstanding of sleep health preservation

First, the longer you sleep, the better for you;

Many people think that the longer you sleep, the better for your health. Actually, it is not. Generally speaking, it is enough for a healthy adult to sleep about 7 hours a day. Moreover, there are individual differences between people, and everyone needs different sleep time. Judging a person's sleep quality depends not only on the time of sleep, but also on the quality and regularity of sleep. Sleeping too long will do harm to the human body. Clinical studies have found that if a healthy adult sleeps more than 10 hour every day, his reaction ability and cardiovascular function will be reduced to varying degrees. Therefore, people should pay more attention to the quality of sleep in daily life, so as to achieve the regularity of sleep, not just the time of sleep.

Secondly, dreaming is harmful:

Many people think that dreaming is harmful and will make people have a bad rest. This view is wrong. Dreaming is a normal physiological phenomenon of human beings, and every normal person dreams during sleep. Generally speaking, it is normal for a person to dream no more than four times a night, which will not affect the quality of sleep. However, it should be noted that if a person often has nightmares or dreams too many times * * * and dreams more than four times a night, or even more than a dozen times * * *, he should go to see a doctor in time, otherwise, not only the quality of sleep will be difficult to guarantee, but also the body will have problems.

Third, the role of drinking to help sleep:

Traditionally, wine has hypnotic effect. So many people like to drink some wine before going to bed, thinking that it can make people fall asleep quickly. However, experts tell us that this practice is not desirable. People drink alcohol before going to bed, although alcohol can paralyze nerves and help people fall asleep. But if you do this for a long time, it will make people's nerves dependent on alcohol. Once this dependence is formed, it is difficult for people to fall asleep without drinking, which leads to insomnia. In addition, drinking alcohol before going to bed will make harmful substances such as alcohol accumulate in the human body for a long time, which will damage the retina and reduce the human body's reaction ability. Therefore, people should never drink alcohol before going to bed. Even if you are sleepy after drinking too much, you should stick to 1 hour before going to bed.

Four, nap is harmful to health:

Whether a nap is harmful to health has always been a controversial topic. However, the latest research results show that siesta can coordinate the human biological clock and inhibit human aging. Taking a nap for a long time can reduce the incidence of cardiovascular diseases by 30%. But it should be noted that not everyone is suitable for a nap. Some people who are overweight by more than 20% or suffer from hypotension and circulatory diseases are not suitable for taking a nap. Because taking a nap will lead to regional cerebral blood supply insufficiency in these people, which will lead to stroke. In addition, the average person's nap time should not be too long, generally 15 ~ 30 minutes is appropriate.

Five, sleep can make up:

Many people who stay up late often stay up all night and then sleep all day the next day to make up for their lack of sleep. They think it can also have the effect of normal sleep. However, experts tell us that late sleep can only relieve fatigue, but it can't make up for the damage caused by lack of sleep. So people should not stay up at will, or they will be overdrawn.

Six, exercise is good for sleep:

It is an indisputable fact that regular exercise can regulate people's nervous system and improve sleep quality. But many people like to exercise before going to bed, thinking that doing so can improve the quality of sleep, which is wrong. Experts tell us that strenuous physical exercise before going to bed will make brain cells in a state of extreme excitement, making it difficult for people to fall asleep and leading to insomnia. Especially after morning exercise, the elderly can't sleep any more, otherwise it will bring harm to the body.

Seven, insomnia is not a disease:

According to statistics, about 30% people in our country suffer from insomnia in different degrees, among which most are female patients. Most insomnia patients think that insomnia is not a disease and does not need treatment. But experts tell us that for most insomnia patients, the manifestations of insomnia are probably the symptoms of diseases that have not been revealed or have been revealed, such as brain tumors, cerebrovascular diseases, epilepsy, Alzheimer's disease, heart failure, angina pectoris, hypertension, chronic bronchitis, chronic renal failure, diabetes, menopausal syndrome and so on. Therefore, people should not be careless when they suffer from insomnia. They should see a doctor in time to make sure that their insomnia is caused by some diseases and should be treated in time.

Eight, the treatment of insomnia mainly depends on drugs:

Many insomnia patients only rely on taking * * * to treat their diseases, which is biased. In fact, the sleep brought by * * * cannot replace people's natural sleep. This is because most * * * will shorten people's deep sleep time, thus reducing people's sleep quality. Therefore, experts suggest that patients with insomnia should try to treat insomnia by adjusting their mood, improving their diet and strengthening physical exercise, and only take * * * under the guidance of a doctor when necessary.
