As the saying goes, "autumn harvest and winter storage", among the five internal organs, kidney storage is the main one in winter. Kidney is one of the important organs of human body, and it is the innate foundation. Whether renal function is normal or not plays a decisive role in health.
In winter, Life Exchange International Comprehensive Medical Care teaches you how to protect our kidneys without spending money.
1, pinch your ears
Chinese medicine believes that "the kidney governs the storage of essence, and the ear governs the enlightenment". There is a kidney-tonifying switch hidden in our ears. As long as we often press it and pinch it, it can help us tonify the kidney, nourish the essence, replenish qi and blood, and make the kidney healthier and healthier!
Method:
First, use the palms of both hands to generate heat, massage the ventral surface (that is, the front of the ear) backwards, then fold forward and massage the back, and massage it repeatedly for 5~6 times;
(2) Then, hold empty fists with both hands, and push and knead the thumb and forefinger up and down along the helix (about 3 minutes) until the helix is congested and fever;
③ Finally, the left hand pulls the right ear over the top of the head 10 15 times, and then the right hand pulls the left ear 10 15 times.
This method can dredge the channels and collaterals, and has a health care effect on the kidneys and various organs.
Step 2 swallow saliva
Chinese medicine believes that "saliva is the liquid of the kidney". Swallowing saliva every day can tonify the kidney, nourish the fur and facial features, and nourish the internal organs, bone marrow and brain marrow.
We can usually adopt the regimen of "chewing teeth and swallowing body fluid"! Very simple, both men and women can use it! The specific operation is as follows:
Method:
(1) Knock teeth 36 times, gently, and then mainly molars, knocking each other up and down;
(2) Relax the whole body and gently lick the upper jaw with your tongue (just touch it, relax your tongue, don't use force). Observe the two points of "Jin Jin" and "Yu Ye";
③ The flexed tongue rotates clockwise and counterclockwise in the mouth along the outside of the gum for 36 times. When stirring, loosen your tongue and drool spontaneously with soft and natural strength;
(4) Finally, slowly swallow saliva in three times.
This method is not limited by time and space, and we can keep healthy anytime and anywhere.
3, waist massage
There is a famous saying in Chinese medicine-"The waist is the house of the kidney". It means that the waist of the human body is where the kidneys live. If there is a problem with the kidney, there will be uncomfortable symptoms in the waist, such as "backache".
If you want to protect your kidneys on weekdays, you should massage your waist and stimulate your muscles. Then how to massage?
Method:
① Rub the palm of your hand until it is hot and put it on both sides of your waist;
(2) Stick your palm to your skin and massage your waist up and down until there is heat. Once in the morning and once in the evening, about 200 times each time.
This method has the functions of promoting qi and blood circulation, strengthening waist and benefiting kidney. If we usually have enough time, we can press more, which is good for the kidneys!
Step 4 hit the back
There are abundant nerves and many important acupoints on both sides of human spine and back, which are widely related to limbs and viscera.
The du meridian of the middle line of the waist and back is called "the sea of Yang meridians", which governs all Yang meridians. Therefore, daily stimulation of back meridians can strengthen waist and kidney, dredge meridians, circulate qi and blood, and balance yin and yang.
Method:
(1) lean back and hit the wall with the whole back, with moderate strength;
(2) Make the body stand upright by the reaction of the impact, and keep the same action repeated, with an impact of about 30 times each time, which can be done 2-3 times a day.
Playing back and tonifying kidney is simple and effective! If anyone is kidney is not good, you can try.
5. Rub your feet
The sole of foot is the "second heart" of human being, and Yongquan point in the heart of foot is the starting point of kidney meridian of foot shaoyin. According to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, rubbing the soles of the feet is conducive to promoting blood circulation, dredging collaterals and strengthening the body. Now, I'll teach you how to rub it.
Method:
After rubbing the palm with both hands, the left hand rubs the right foot and the right hand rubs the left foot, 1 time in the morning, 300 times each time.
We often rub our feet, which can activate the internal qi of kidney meridian, prevent premature aging, and be beneficial to health and longevity. Old people often rub their feet, which can also prevent numbness in their legs and feet, weakness in activities and cold feet.
Step 6 take a deep breath
Many people don't understand that deep breathing can actually tonify the kidney.
"The lung governs qi, and the kidney is the root of qi." According to Chinese medicine, the fundamental motive force of our breathing lies in the kidney. Deep breathing can warm the kidney through the interaction between lung and kidney. So, how do we take a deep breath correctly?
Method:
① Choose a fresh air environment when taking a deep breath, and try to inhale through your nose.
② Gently, slowly, evenly and deeply breathe. Take six deep breaths in a group. Then calm down and adjust, and do it again.
Deep breathing can not only strengthen the kidney, but also refresh the mind! However, you must remember to take a deep breath in the fresh air!
If we develop the habit of these six actions of nourishing kidney, daily nourishing and nourishing kidney will be natural and effortless.
