Lung health care law of traditional Chinese medicine: lung is the official of husband.

Rational use of air conditioning is also an important part of health care. Autumn and winter are coming, how to maintain the five internal organs? What is the most important organ in autumn? What measures need to be taken for maintenance? We talked about nourishing yang in spring and summer, that is, how do we follow the footsteps of the season and the rise of yang in nature to maintain our liver and heart? As time goes by, the season is approaching autumn and winter. Let's see how to keep our lungs and kidneys in harmony with nature. This is to nourish yin and charge in autumn and winter, and to hide yang in autumn and winter, but at the same time, we should hide it without being stiff. Stiff is stiff. If a lack of yang is hidden in autumn and winter, we will not be able to rise in the spring next year. If we hide too much, we will accumulate anger. Now let's say the first one is how to help Yang Zangqiu. Autumn, lung depression, severe depression. Let's first look at the physiological characteristics of the lung, that is, its preferences. What are its characteristics? If you want to take good care of your lungs in autumn, you must conform to its characteristics and preferences. One of the characteristics of lung qi is that it likes health, which is called lung qi in Chinese medicine, so as to be unobstructed. In autumn in nature, everyone knows that the vitality has been submerged and the sun has fallen. When the temperature drops, the leaves will fall and the stinging insects will go. This is a sign of health decline, and our human lungs just like to be lowered, so as to be smooth. Cool air and depressed yang in autumn are beneficial to lung function, so lung is the main function of our five internal organs in autumn. Then the cool autumn is good for the health of the lungs, but there is also a kind of autumn dryness that hurts the lung yin. It also has good side and bad side. Next, let's talk about how to use autumn to keep healthy and nourish the lungs, and how to avoid autumn dryness hurting the lungs. Lung Chinese medicine believes that delicate and delicate, afraid of cold and evil. Like moist, like clean, but don't underestimate it is a delicate and dirty, although its structure looks delicate, but delicate and dirty take the lead, it actually bears a very important physiological function, in the human body it is expensive as the prime minister, in Huangdi Neijing, it is said that the heart is the official of the monarch, so what is the auxiliary heart? It is the lung that is called the official, that is, the prime minister. It can be seen that one person is above ten thousand people. However, it is a pity that for a long time, our Chinese medicine has relatively neglected the lung. We often say that the heart is a monarch and the stem is a general. This is all valid in words and forbidden by order. Spleen and kidney are the foundation of congenital. Without kidneys, humans can't reproduce. Your growth and development will be affected, so it is very important that the spleen, the foundation of the day after tomorrow, depends on this spleen and stomach as soon as it is born, and Watson's blood, people are iron rice steel, and food is the sky for the people. Eating it will melt blood and rely on the spleen. Therefore, many schools of Chinese medicine mainly focus on the heart, liver, spleen and kidney to establish their own series of clinical diagnosis and treatment systems and theories, but only compare the lungs.
02. The lung participates in energy metabolism.
Nourishing yin in autumn and winter is mainly due to the reduction of yang in the body, especially the lung plays a very important role in the reduction of yang. As the saying goes, "dirty hands take the lead", why can the lungs take the lead? What are the important physiological functions?
Let's look at the lungs as subtle and dirty precursors. How can it lead? What is its physiological function? First, the main manager breathes. We say that people can eat or drink for a day, but they can't breathe for a moment. I won't talk about its mechanism. I will talk about this phenomenon, and you will know how important the lungs are. Not only should the lungs breathe with quality, but also a person's breath is low. If he is so weak, his voice is weak and he has no confidence. As soon as I say this, a thin and tall man will appear in your mind. It is unlikely that as soon as I say this sound image, you will immediately associate it with a tall and powerful imagination, so breathing is related to one's survival and one's quality of life. Take a deep breath, breathe smoothly, have a large lung capacity and be in good health. So in breathing, breathing in one breath will bring two functional tendencies, That is, lung-qi-qi-qi-qi-qi-qi-qi-qi-qi-qi-qi-qi-qi-qi-qi-qi-qi-qi-qi-qi-qi-qi-qi-qi-qi-qi-qi-qi-qi-qi-qi. It's disgusting, so if people want to live, this Yang must take root. How can we take root and sprout? The decline of the lungs is a very important force. Breathing, inhaling, and announcing the descent form the most important physiological rhythm of our human body, which can be said to be the basic rhythm, so it has some very important influences on our lives. First of all, inhaling clean air, inhaling turbid air, inhaling oxygen and exhaling carbon dioxide play a very important role in our energy metabolism. It can even be said to be a link and part of energy metabolism. If your oxygen intake is relatively insufficient, your cells will not get enough oxygen, and its metabolism will definitely be affected. If its exhaled carbon dioxide is relatively replenished, then we know the internal environment in the body, and it will be acidified. On this basis, we will get a lot of diseases, which is why we often sit there without exercise and get sick easily. We say that oxygen is an important fuel in the process of energy metabolism, so the absorbed Shui Gu Jingwei cannot be directly utilized in the spleen and stomach and digestive tract. It must be sent to the lungs at this time. After the lungs inhale this oxygen, it is necessary to combine the clear air of nature with this Shui Gu and turn it into qi and blood that can really be used by human tissues and organs. This is the so-called combination of qi and blood, so Shui Gu can be used by human body. So you see, in this process, spleen has always been emphasized, but finished products, fine products and good products must have lungs to add essence. So we are talking about the whole metabolic process of this human body in Shui Gu, and we must eat it first, right? After you eat it, it is digested and absorbed by the spleen and stomach, and becomes the original raw material called Shui Gu Wei Jingjing, and then it has a function called clearing the spleen. Where does it rise? Clear is an essential thing to send it to the lungs, and the lungs inhale and exhale this clear gas, which becomes a finished product that the human body can directly use. Qi and blood are transported to the whole body through the heart, so where will these wastes be excreted after being transported to the whole body? After the kidneys excrete, your kidneys will excrete. We know that if the kidney is to function normally, the lung must be normal and its breathing quality must be good. Why? We say that in the five elements of TCM, lung belongs to golden kidney and water, and in the symbiotic relationship of the five elements, it is called lung, golden kidney and water. In the process of water-liquid metabolism, a considerable part of our body weight is water, so our cells are soaked in water. In fact, then this water is living water, flowing water and a dynamic source of this dynamic water. In the lung, the lung is called the source of water, and the lower kidney is the source under the water, with the upper source unblocked and the lower source unblocked. Therefore, Chinese medicine often uses some tricks such as ephedra, platycodon grandiflorum, almond and lung-opening to treat urinary tract obstruction, so it also involves the discharge of your metabolic waste. You see, it takes a very important part in the production process, and it is used as the upper source to control the kidneys, lungs and large intestine. As soon as the breathing of the lungs drops, this healthy function is sucked in. On the other hand, pushing the large intestine downward is very beneficial to the excretion of feces. So you see, in the whole metabolic process, the lung not only manages the formation of nutrients, but also manages the excretion of dregs.
03. The relationship between lung and other organs
In the physiological function of the lung, the lung controls breathing, and the quality of breathing directly affects the functions of organs such as kidneys. In the respiratory function, which organs are under the jurisdiction of the lungs?
Another point is that the lungs control the fur. What is a very important function of fur? Sweating, human sweating is a very important process. Sweat is added to Yin qi and consumes energy, so it takes care of the whole process from production to consumption. Lung breathing is related to the overall metabolic level, so if you want to lose weight and promote energy metabolism, if you want to treat some overall metabolic diseases, you must consider this link of the lung, and then it can open and close the nutritious fur and lungs during breathing. It is called the gate of hell. The so-called gate of hell means that it is actually opening and closing, but it is invisible and intangible, and unconsciously. What is the rhythm of opening and closing this sweat hole? It is the rhythm of breathing, so the opening and closing of this pore is the material basis of our unity of man and nature. Why do you think that man and nature can be one, the weather has changed, the sun is shining, and it is windy and rainy? Why don't most of us get sick? Because our fur senses changes in the environment. As soon as we realized that the lung dominated the fur and immediately passed through the lung, the external environment changed. You immediately inform the monarch that you are not the prime minister. As soon as you informed the monarch, the monarch was commanding thousands of troops, calling out the internal organs of the rear area and telling him that now the environment has changed, you should adjust the rhythm immediately, the yang will drop, and the hair will rise and rise, so the role of fur is very important, as well as fur and lungs. The other one, we perceive changes in the climate and environment, and what about temperature changes? Relying on the nose, the lungs began to understand the nose, so if you want to survive in the environment and achieve harmony with the environment, you must rely on the lungs. The lung is a very important link, and we have to adjust our body temperature after sensing it through fur, right? After regulating body temperature, this regulation process of body temperature plays an important role in our metabolism and circulation. The breathing function of the other lung is related to the excretion of the human body, so-called detoxification, and the unblocked sewer. Look at the respiratory function of the lungs, which makes several detoxification channels in the whole body interrelated. When you breathe, you exhale carbon dioxide. Is this a detoxification process? Then you excrete urine. The lung is the source of water god and communicates with the water channel. The lung and large intestine excrete dregs. It is also a detoxification channel. The lung controls the fur, and the fur controls sweating. Therefore, all detoxification channels are related to the lung, and sweating exhales carbon dioxide to excrete urine and stool. Therefore, if your lung function is weak, your breathing quality is poor, and your breathing is light and shallow, it will present a chronic detoxification disorder.
The lung controls the fur, controls the important perspiration function of the human body, enlightens the nose and mediates the balance between the human body and the external environment. In addition, what are the important functions of lung breathing?
Breathe the other lung and breathe again and again. What can it do? The essence of the spleen and stomach, which is combined with essence and qi, is used by the five internal organs all the way. Then there seems to be some left in the kidney. If it is transported from top to bottom and stored in the kidney, this is the function of the lung, so we say that the lung produces renal water. Many people in Chinese medicine say that some people know how to tonify kidney, tonify kidney yang, tonify kidney essence, tonify kidney yin and tonify kidney yang. But why don't these people think about it? Lung gold can produce kidney water, so some people suggest that tonifying kidney is better than tonifying lung. So what are the health products that many people admire in ancient cursive scripts? Advocating lily, Ophiopogon japonicus and Polygonatum odoratum is actually not tonifying kidney, but can resist aging, but their function is not because of anti-aging after tonifying kidney, but because of what? But because it fills the lungs. What happens when it fills the lungs? Longjin produces kidney water, which also has respiratory function. It plays an auxiliary role in the official position of the monarch and restricts the official position of the monarch. We say that the heart belongs to fire, and the fire is inflamed, which can't be controlled at all, so whoever controls it will have an inhibitory effect on it, that is, the lung, which is very important, and the other lung-the golden Jin Kemu in the five internal organs. Entrusting a monarch and an officer, these two are the most distinctive and easily provoked of all the five internal organs that seal an official and add a title, so we often get angry. Everyone knows that they all have this common sense, right? Then why aren't many people angry? The lungs are compressed and you can't make a move. We say that human life is a kind of sun spirit, but the sun spirit of human life must take root, right? You, a plant, are also growing upward. We know that the higher a plant grows, the longer it lives, so what will happen to its roots? The stronger the prison, the stronger the yang. It must be that the physiological yang will be more vigorous and deeply rooted. Therefore, in the human body, the yang spirit decreases and increases. Then, who started this button from the rise of the yang in spring and summer to the beginning of our human yang in autumn and winter? In the human body. Lung. The decline of lung plays an important role.
The function of lung can not only combine with water valley, but also help the latent yang of human body to control the rise of liver fire. In addition to the lung governing the descending, what other organs can control the yang and prevent the yang from overflowing?
Since it is said that the sun's qi is falling and rising, then the sun's qi in our human body has a foundation and rises, but it has a foundation. What is controlling the sun to keep it from being too high? There are several factors, among which lung qi deficiency and failure is a very important factor. Another one is the kidney below the kidney. The kidney is characterized by sealing, which is sealed by tree roots. This is a very important factor. Another one is that when I was talking about the maintenance of the heart, I said that the heart belongs to fire and the kidney belongs to water, right? But what must this fire and water look like in the human body? Fire, water and yin and yang must embrace each other. There is fire in water, and there is water in fire, especially heart fire, but what must a normal heart fire look like? Falling. There must be a process of decline, so after this, the heart will not be strong. It can warm kidney water, so the intersection of heart fire and kidney is a very important force, a force to contain yang, and another force to reduce yang's price and increase it's price is that the internal organs are unobstructed, the stool is unobstructed, and the urine is unobstructed. The triple energizer is what we usually call getting angry. If yang is rising all the time, whether it is real fire or virtual fire. Upset, insomnia, facial inflammation, high blood pressure, etc., such as aphtha, bad breath, toothache and so on. Why do you always get angry like this? Let's look at real life. Just because a person often doesn't exercise doesn't mean that he is not angry, he can still be angry. There are also people with kidney deficiency, and it is common for yin deficiency to cause internal heat to get angry. If the heart and kidney don't meet, they will get angry if they don't sleep well, and the six internal organs won't' people with bad stools fall in love with fire, which means that their Yang Can can't come down. Therefore, in order to make the yang full but not excessive, the lung qi should be lowered, the kidney should be well hidden, the heart fire and the kidney should intersect, and another way of excretion must be unblocked. So when I talk about this, everyone can understand that the lung is actually very important in our body. Knowing the importance of the lung is very important for our health care and treatment, because I think the lung should be unblocked. First, it is self-evident that it is very important to human life itself. Second, our present lifestyle, food, clothing, housing and transportation, drastic changes in the air environment, and the disharmonious notes in the middle of the harmony between man and nature have done great harm to the lungs, which is the change of the lung environment. I think this lung is the most affected of all viscera, so I will talk about it in this series of lectures.
