In recent years, with the in-depth study of TCM constitution, strengthening the body has gradually become a hot spot pursued by many health hobbies. However, people generally have a wrong understanding of physical fitness. In the eyes of most people, physical health preservation is a new concept in TCM theory, which does not exist in TCM.

Yin-yang theory is widely used in traditional Chinese medicine. In traditional Chinese medicine, "Yin" represents stored energy, including blood, body fluids, bones, meat, women and so on. And "Yang" represents energy consumption, which is the vitality that can be seen through the human body surface. Invisible qi, life and fire, and male sex belong to Yang. The vitality of "Yang" depends on the internal cause, that is, the storage of "Yin".

Qi and blood in the human body are also a pair of yin and yang, with blood as the body and qi as the yang. Blood is the mother of qi, and qi is handsome for blood. Qi deficiency can easily lead to congestion, such as tumors and thrombosis; If you are too angry, you will easily get diseases such as cerebral hemorrhage. Therefore, only the balance of qi and blood can make people healthy.

Health preservation depends on the strength of yin and yang of people's physique, and can be supplemented by different methods. People's physical strength of yin and yang has a great relationship with illness.

Exercise can produce yang, and meditation can produce yin.

According to the principle of Yin and Yang in Zhouyi, movement is Yang, and quietness is Yin. Comparatively speaking, people who practice sports will have yang, which can enhance their energy and improve their work efficiency; If you practice static kung fu, static will produce yin, which can reduce the consumption of human body and lead to a relatively long life. It is wrong to just stand still, and it is even more wrong to just exercise and not know how to have a good rest. The correct method of keeping in good health should be the combination of static and dynamic, combining rigidity with softness.

This is because God belongs to Yang, and it is easy to move and disperse in life activities, but it is difficult to be quiet, so be quiet; The body belongs to yin, which is easy to be static but difficult to move, so the most important thing to keep the body is exercise. Therefore, only by moving to nourish the body, calming to nourish the heart, combining static and dynamic, and nourishing the body and mind, can the qi and blood in the body be smooth and the yin and yang be balanced, thus achieving the effect of prolonging life.

Sports, including: running, jumping, walking, climbing, playing ball, swimming, riding a bike, etc.

Rest, including meditation, sleep, repose, beating Tai Ji Chuan, etc.

Whether they like moving or resting should vary from person to person. Yang deficiency should be mainly dynamic nourishing, but not too intense; People with yin deficiency mainly rest, but they should also cooperate with movement. Generally speaking, people with small abdominal circumference, low blood lipid and cholesterol can rest mainly, supplemented by exercise. On the contrary, patients with large abdominal circumference, high blood lipid and high cholesterol should be given priority to dynamic nursing, supplemented by static nursing.

For the elderly, quietness is more important than exercise, and real quietness is more difficult than real exercise. Many old people think that strenuous exercise is the best exercise as long as they try to run and jump in the morning exercise. This is obviously wrong. The movement of the elderly should not be sudden, nor should it be sudden. Dance, slowly end. Taking sweating and pleasure as the standard of moderate exercise, sweating too much is easy to hurt Yang. The yin and yang of the elderly must be carefully protected. Too quiet may be suitable for a few elderly people, but in general, the elderly must combine static and dynamic, be quiet and move less.

Take a nap, not partial eclipse, Yin Pingyang secret health.

In the traditional culture of China, everything in the world can be divided into yin and yang, and only when yin and yang are balanced can everything in the world function normally. The so-called balance of yin and yang means that the growth and decline of both sides of yin and yang are coordinated, neither excessive nor extreme, showing a coordinated state. For the human body, the balance of yin and yang is the balance of viscera, cold and heat, and qi and blood. Its general principle is the coordination of yin and yang, and its essence is the balance of yin and yang essence (essence, blood, body fluid and body fluid), that is, the coordination of various functions and substances of the human body.

The organic characteristics of yin-yang balance are: abundant qi and blood, full of energy, healthy five internal organs and rosy complexion. In other words, if the yin and yang in our body are harmonious and all parts work normally, we are healthy and beautiful; However, if there is imbalance between Yin and Yang, and any aspect is lacking or excessive, we will have sub-health, disease, premature aging and other symptoms. Therefore, if you want to look beautiful, maintaining the balance between yin and yang is the most basic condition.

So, how should we keep the balance between Yin and Yang?

First of all, if you always feel tired in your life and can't relieve it after rest, you should be alert to the potential of the disease and go to the hospital for physical examination immediately.

Sleep is also a good way to keep the balance between yin and yang, especially at noon. It starts at 1 1 in the evening. At this time, the yin in the human body is the most abundant, the yang is born, and the strength is very weak. You should sleep most, which will help the growth of yang in the body and harmonize yin and yang. If you don't sleep, but continue to study or work, the yang will not grow up, which will lead to imbalance between yin and yang; At noon, it is 1 1 to 1, as opposed to noon. At noon, the sun is the most abundant, and it is cloudy. Yin and Yang should also rest. So noon and noon are the two most important time periods in a day. If you have a good rest during these two periods, it is very beneficial to maintain the harmony of yin and yang in your body.

Mentality, to prevent the spread of anxiety, tension, anxiety, anger, depression and other emotions, slow down the pace of life, do not give yourself too much pressure, enjoy freedom, nature and comfort.

Don't be partial to food. Whole grains, vegetables, fruits and meat should be properly ingested. Any kind of food has nutrients beneficial to human body. Only by not excluding any food can the body maintain a balanced nutrition, which is also an important aspect of harmonizing yin and yang.

In short, the key to maintaining the balance between yin and yang is to be just right, not too much and not too little. Too much is not the best state. The most important thing is to feel comfortable and feel like a spring breeze all the time, so that our mood will be relaxed and comfortable, our work will be more creative and we can experience a better life. Such people are generally soft-blooded and energetic, and their mouths will be slightly upturned unconsciously. That kind of heartfelt happiness and happiness is like being strong.
