Based on the overall concept of "correspondence between man and nature" and "unity of form and spirit", the traditional health preserving theory recognizes human life activities and their relationship with nature and society, with special emphasis on the coordination between man and natural environment and social environment, and pays attention to the fluctuation of qi in the body and the coordination between psychology and physiology. It expounds the laws of human body's birth, aging, illness and death through the theory of Yin-Yang-Qi and the theory of zang-fu organs and meridians, especially regards essence, qi and spirit as the three treasures of human body and the core of health care, and then determines various principles to guide the practice of health care, and puts forward that the way of health care must be "based on Yin-Yang, coordinated with skills" and "regular daily life", that is, to conform to nature, protect vitality and follow the law of natural change, so that the rhythm of life process moves with time and space.
2. Emphasize the comprehensive and dialectical principles of self-care.
The health and longevity of human beings can not be achieved by taking care of one thing at a time, but by adopting various nursing methods for all aspects of the human body and persisting in nursing according to the situation. Therefore, on the one hand, the traditional health-preserving theory emphasizes comprehensive disease prevention and health care from the natural environment to food, clothing, housing and transportation, from hobbies to mental health, from drug strengthening to sports health care, on the other hand, it attaches great importance to different treatment according to different situations, opposes the same model, and reflects the idea of dynamic overall balance and careful matching of Chinese medicine health-preserving according to the different characteristics of each purpose. Traditional Chinese medicine health experts all advocate that health care should be based on people, time and local conditions. For example, pay attention to health care in stages according to age; Let nature take its course and keep healthy; Pay attention to the relationship between environment and health and longevity, and pay attention to environmental health preservation. Another example is the application principle of traditional fitness, which advocates choosing dynamic exercise, static exercise or combination of static and dynamic exercise according to one's own needs, and combining guidance and massage. This can not only make up for the disadvantages, but also lead qi to meridians, prolong life, develop potential and wisdom, and thus receive the best health care effect.
3. Wide adaptation range
Traditional health preservation can be consistent with everyone's life.
From the beginning of pregnancy to old age, every age stage has the content of health preservation. In addition, people need to stay healthy when they are not sick, when they are sick, and after rehabilitation. Not only that, there are also corresponding health care measures for people with different constitutions, sexes and regions. Therefore, the application scope of TCM health care is very wide, which should arouse people's great attention, popularize it in an all-round way, raise health care awareness and regard health care as an important part of life activities.
As can be seen from the above, traditional health preservation is indeed a great treasure house and an indispensable part of health education. Today, with the emphasis on self-care, it is obviously necessary to popularize China's traditional health knowledge as a sharp weapon for people to prevent and treat diseases.
Getting angry in autumn is actually dry in autumn. At this time, the strategy of "getting angry" is not only to clear away heat and detoxify, but also to pay attention to moistening the lungs. The swelling and pain in the throat is a sign of getting angry. You can take some drugs for purging fire, some food for nourishing yin or Chinese herbal medicine. But don't blindly shed fire. Some people with spleen and stomach deficiency and cold will hurt their stomachs if they eat laxatives. In addition, improper tonic in autumn is also one of the reasons for dry throat and sore throat. In autumn, we should master the principle of moistening and nourishing.
To keep your throat moist in autumn, first of all, remember to drink plenty of water to keep your body hydrated. Because vocal cords vibrate very fast, maintaining normal water balance helps to keep vocal cords lubricated. In autumn, you should drink more water, porridge and soybean milk, and eat more foods such as radish, lotus root, water chestnut, pear and honey, which moisten the lung and promote fluid production, nourish yin and clear dryness, especially pear has the functions of promoting fluid production, quenching thirst, relieving cough and resolving phlegm, clearing heat and reducing fire, nourishing blood and promoting granulation, moistening the lung and clearing dryness, etc.
2. "It is difficult and expensive to see a doctor" has become a common problem all over the world, which will inevitably lead to medical reform. The concept of "preventing diseases" in China's traditional medicine provides a new way to solve this problem. How to truly implement this concept in human beings? Kunlun-Yanhuang health insurance model (KY3H model) has created a feasible way for this. The special issue of this newspaper introduces the understanding and exploration of China experts and scholars on this issue.
Health is the eternal theme pursued by human beings. The experience of developed countries proves that the productivity increase of 8%- 10% is realized due to the improvement of national health level. Two-thirds of diseases and premature deaths can be avoided, and more than 70% of the factors leading to human death can be controlled by people. Traditional Chinese medicine has unique advantages in disease prevention and health preservation. There is a famous saying in the ancients that "saints cure diseases without curing them".
Doctors in later generations understood "treating before illness" as three levels: first, preventing before illness; Second, prevent changes after illness; Third, treat diseases as early as possible.
"Prevention before illness" means preventing the occurrence of diseases when there is no disease. "Preventing the disease from changing" refers to preventing the disease from further developing and worsening. The essence of TCM syndrome differentiation and treatment is to dynamically observe the changes of diseases and attach importance to treating symptoms and root causes. "Early treatment of disease" means that the disease has been treated in time.
"Preventing diseases at work" requires paying attention to the prevention of diseases, emphasizing taking active measures when "no disease" occurs and before the disease occurs. In the long-term accumulation of medical practice, Chinese medicine has gradually formed a variety of intervention methods of "preventing diseases", which are simple and low-cost. In addition to using traditional Chinese medicine or Chinese patent medicine for health care and prevention, Chinese medicine pays more attention to regulating emotions and comprehensively regulating body and mind by nourishing nature, exercising regularly and eating according to physical fitness, supplemented by acupuncture, pedicure, massage and guidance. As Huangdi Neijing said: "Those who know, on the basis of Yin and Yang, are reconciled by skills, eat moderately and live regularly, so they can live in harmony with God until the end of their lives." The core of TCM health preserving theory is "harmonizing Yin and Yang". By coordinating yin and yang, protecting yang and benefiting yin, paying attention to maintaining "essence and spirit", strengthening five internal organs, dredging meridians and regulating qi and blood, the purpose of health preservation is achieved.
With the arrival of China's aging society, the incidence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, tumors and respiratory diseases has increased significantly, and the medical expenses for treating these diseases are also increasing at a high speed. While further improving the level of disease diagnosis and treatment, we should move forward and focus on prevention. It is very urgent and necessary to reduce the incidence rate, prolong the life span, improve the quality of life, share the worries for the country and the people, and reduce the overall medical and health expenses.
