What can people do to balance yin and yang?
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the balance of yin and yang is a sign of a person's health. If you can't guarantee it, you will get sick. Even if the appearance doesn't look disgusting, there is something wrong with the body, but it just doesn't show to the extreme. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, human health depends on the balance of yin and yang. If yin and yang are out of balance, the human body will get sick. People who don't know Chinese medicine may be curious: what is the balance of yin and yang?

Health, starting from regulating the balance of Yin and Yang: two methods are also recommended by Chinese medicine.

First, what is the balance of yin and yang?

Traditional Chinese medicine pays attention to exploring the mysteries of the human body from the inside. Hua Tuo once wrote in the Tibetan Scripture that the human body is like nature, no matter which kind of yin or yang is vigorous, it will lead to diseases, which implies the importance of the balance between yin and yang.

From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, health preservation is also based on the balance of yin and yang. Only people with a balance of yin and yang are healthy. The balance of yin and yang is the premise to ensure the normal life activities of human body. Once it is broken, the human body will be abnormal and sick.

It can be concluded that the balance of yin and yang is the premise of health and longevity, so what is the standard for Chinese medicine to judge the balance of yin and yang?

Second, the standard of yin-yang balance

The first is to keep your head warm. Everyone has an experience. If you feel uncomfortable, just touch your forehead. If you feel very hot, it means you have a fever. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the head is the meeting of all yang, that is, the place where yang gathers. If the yang is too strong, it will appear as hot hair. The balance of yin and yang depends on whether the head is warm, neither too hot nor too cold.

The second is to keep your feet warm. Pathogens of cold and dampness are most likely to invade the body through the lower body of the human body, and the feet are the key parts. Many people feel cold feet in winter, indicating that the balance of yin and yang in the body has been disturbed. Therefore, we should pay attention to whether our feet are warm in our daily life and do a good job of keeping warm.

The third is sufficient blood. In traditional Chinese medicine, judging whether a person is healthy depends on the balance of yin and yang, and whether the balance of yin and yang can be expressed by the sufficiency of blood gas. When the balance of yin and yang is broken, qi and blood will be affected, and people with insufficient qi and blood will have no so-called balance of yin and yang.

The above three are the criteria for judging whether yin and yang are balanced in a person. When yin and yang are in balance, the human body will be in a state of energy, health and worry-free. So what can be done to achieve a balance between yin and yang?

Three, two ways to adjust the balance of Yin and Yang in the body

The first is exercise. Many people don't like sports, especially those who are in poor health. However, life lies in exercise. Chinese medicine believes that exercise is an important way to adjust the balance of yin and yang. People who exercise regularly can better maintain the balance between yin and yang, and can also do targeted exercise. For example, they can often comb their hair to make the blood in their heads smooth. For their feet, they can often massage the soles of their feet, and usually they can run more or play Tai Chi.

Secondly, through the adjustment of diet. Adjust according to your own specific situation, such as cold constitution. When eating some cold food, add some ginger slices to reconcile. If the yang is too strong, you should eat less food that helps yang and pay attention to eating more food that nourishes yin.
