The lung is very important, but it is also a very fragile organ, which is easily influenced by internal and external factors.
If you don't pay attention to clearing and moistening the lungs on weekdays, the lungs will be easily attacked by evil spirits, causing discomfort, and even involving other viscera and provoking diseases.
Today, I will introduce you to several good ways to nourish your lungs in autumn.
There are "four fears" in the lungs, try to avoid them.
0 1
Fear of anger
The lung is in charge of the whole body's qi and is a place for gas exchange. The quality of inhaled gas directly affects the lungs. Toxic gases produced by cigarettes, polluted air, kitchen fumes, etc. Are easy to hurt the lungs. Therefore, some harmful gases will damage lung function and even induce various lung diseases.
02
Afraid of dryness
The lung likes to moisten dryness, and dryness is the easiest to hurt the lung. Once dryness and evil damage the lungs, it is easy to induce various lung diseases when autumn comes. Therefore, we should pay attention to moistening the lungs in daily life to fight against the invasion of dryness and evil.
03
protect against cold
The lungs like warmth and fear cold, and they are often the first to get hurt when cold comes. Cold pathogens invade the lungs through the nose and mouth, so that lung qi can not be dispersed and body fluid can not be condensed, thus inducing respiratory diseases such as colds, which may lead to decreased immunity or chronic rhinitis.
04
Fear of sadness
Although sadness and sorrow are different, they are both negative emotions. Huangdi Neijing said: "Sorrow leads to qi elimination", so it can be seen that excessive sadness or sorrow is the most likely to damage lung qi.
Nourish the lungs and do more breathing exercises in autumn and winter.
Breathing exercise can improve the symptoms of chest tightness, shortness of breath, dyspnea and wheezing in patients with respiratory diseases, realize the regulation and entry of breathing in the body, improve the function of human viscera, and thus improve the immunity of the body. Clinical research shows that breathing exercises can obviously restore lung function.
Breathing exercises have seven sections, and the specific methods are as follows:
(1) Lip contraction breathing
Methods: Inhale through the nose, gently close your lips when exhaling, exhale slowly and whistle in your mouth.
② Abdominal breathing
Methods: Put your right hand on your navel and your left hand on your chest. When inhaling, expand the abdomen outward to the maximum extent and keep the chest still. When exhaling, try to contract your abdomen inward and keep your chest still.
③ Breathe with bated breath
Methods: Inhale, hold your breath for 3 seconds, turn your head to the right and exhale. Inhale, hold your breath for 3 seconds, turn your head to the left and exhale.
④ Stretching breathing
Methods: straighten your arms, gradually lift your head forward and upward, and inhale deeply at the same time; Then put your arms together, lean forward and take a deep breath. (Note: Try to breathe abdominal. )
⑤ Press to welcome the fragrance.
Methods: The thumb of both hands flexed, and Xiang Ying point was massaged with the first knuckle (Xiang Ying point was opened near the midpoint of the outer edge of the nose, in the nasolabial groove).
⑥ Pushing wind pool.
Methods: The palms were spread outward, and the ipsilateral posterior occipital Fengchi point (Fengchi point is parallel to the earlobes on both sides of the posterior major tendon of the head and forehead) was pushed with the little finger joint or thenar respectively to achieve pain.
All landowners chest percussion
Methods: Bend your hands and fingers together to make your palms cup-shaped, and beat the chest wall rhythmically with wrist strength.
Breathing exercises are mainly based on standing posture, and some movements can also be done in sitting and lying position, which should be done according to physical conditions. For the elderly with poor lung function, don't rush for success, but stick to it and practice 1~2 times a day. Breathing practice should pay attention to breathing depth and breathing volume to improve breathing efficiency.
