The moment you are born, it is the starting point of life, and it also starts the respiratory system; A person's life can be said to be a history of breathing until the last breath stops breathing. We breathe more than 20,000 times a day, but we will die if we don't breathe for a few minutes. The importance of breathing is unparalleled. -Most people usually don't pay much attention to the health effects of breathing.
Making good use of breathing to strengthen qi and blood is actually a way to cure both symptoms and root causes. Gas, like running water, does not rot. It always maintains the freshness and flow of qi and blood, like a mountain stream-clear and dye-free, which is the highest state of health preservation.
Mastering the correct breathing method is the first priority of health care.
There are three states of matter: solid, liquid and gas, and the human body will also produce these wastes. These wastes accumulate in the body for a long time, which will block the meridians, affect the circulation of qi and blood, and then produce toxins harmful to health. Although the food we eat and the air we breathe provide all kinds of nutrients that our body needs to maintain life, they also contain harmful substances such as pesticides, antibiotics, preservatives, pigments, additives and carbon monoxide, which are extremely harmful to health. Therefore, the primary task of practicing breathing regimen is to keep our bodies clean, strengthen the operation of qi and blood, eliminate waste in the body and promote the metabolism of the body.
When a person has poor defecation or urination, he must go to the hospital for treatment in time, because solid and liquid wastes accumulate in the body and cannot be excreted, which will cause health problems. Similarly, qi stagnation in the body can also be harmful to health. The quality of gas is relatively light, although the body will discharge it by hiccups, farting, etc., but these polluted gases are often not completely discharged, so that some of them unconsciously accumulate in the body; Especially between the chest and abdomen and the internal organs, it is easier to store turbid qi, which hinders the circulation of qi and blood and leads to diseases.
When carbon dioxide in the body cannot be discharged and accumulates too much, it will be converted into carbonate, leading to visceral fibrosis and quality decline; Some bacteria in the intestine can decompose protein and produce toxic substances such as peptides, amines, ammonia and hydrogen sulfide. If these toxic substances accumulate in the body for a long time, they may cause self-poisoning, brain cell damage, memory loss and even Alzheimer's disease. Toxins can also damage liver cells, reduce liver function and lead to hepatitis. Therefore, it is the most important task to excrete toxins from the body in time.
The average person farts 6-20 times a day, and the displacement is between 500- 1500 ml per day. However, due to the relationship between excessive internal heat and adverse qi, the passage of turbid qi in the upper part is often blocked, and the symptoms of deficiency in the lower part and excess in the upper part appear, and the gas metabolism in the body is incomplete. If we develop the habit of scientific breathing, so that our bodies can always get enough oxygen and essence, and expel the accumulated turbid gas and true qi from the body, we can avoid the invasion of diseases.
In addition, bad eating habits, overwork, excessive stress and other factors can also lead to excessive free radicals in the body. Free radicals are high-energy atomic groups, which will constantly attack cells, make human premature aging and become the source of all diseases. When practicing respiratory regimen, we can reduce the generation and accumulation of free radicals by relaxing body and mind, removing turbidity and clearing heat.
Triple energizer governs qi. Hua Tuo, a famous doctor in the Han Dynasty, said in Han Zang Jing: "The triple energizer always leads the five internal organs, six fu organs, Wei Rong, meridians, internal and external qi, and the triple energizer communicates the internal and external qi, which is greater than this." Huangdi Neijing also pointed out that the triple energizer is the organ of the human body to transport and transform qi. After the triple energizer is opened, the obstruction between the chest, abdomen and viscera is no longer blocked, and the circulation and metabolism of qi can proceed smoothly. The body must expel turbid gas, so that there is room for clear gas. This is "clear away turbidity".
Only when the whole body is free from turbidity can it be light and healthy. From the outside, clean and young. Whether a person's face is clean or not is a way to judge whether a person is practicing well. If a person's face is covered with black gas and spots, and it is always dirty, it means that a lot of polluted gas can't be excreted.
The human body has "three elimination", which means burping, farting and sweating. These are three ways for us to expel waste and polluted air from our bodies. When these three meridians are unblocked, the situation of qi stagnation and blood stasis will be reduced, and the body will feel very refreshed. When polluted air spreads all over the body, people always feel sore and uncomfortable, although no disease can be detected.
Taoism believes that there are three households and nine insects in the human body, which is the innate turbid evil spirit hidden in the depths of the zang-fu organs and the root cause of human birth, illness and death. The main purpose of practicing qi and keeping in good health is to exhaust the deep turbid qi in the body as much as possible. With the continuous discharge of turbid qi, you can not only avoid getting sick, but also accumulate healthy qi. Both body and mind can be clean, which is the highest realm of life.
Artu asked: I studied Tai Ji Chuan for five months, and practiced standing piles more than a month ago. Last week, I got four pimples on my right cheek, then two on my right neck and one on my right hip and thigh. To my surprise, these pimples are concentrated on the right side of the body. What is the reason?
If the water answers: the qi of the human body is left yang and right yin, and the yang is clear and the yin is detoxified, forming a "metabolic cycle of qi". Your phenomenon can be used as evidence of this theory. As long as we persist in practicing the breathing regimen and let the clear gas be continuously injected into the body, we can promote the discharge of turbid gas. Your acne is a good sign that polluted air is being discharged, but in order not to let the hot air go too far, you'd better relax when practicing gas.
Modern people generally have less physical labor and lack of physical activity, which leads to the inability to give full play to the function of body exhaust and perspiration, leaving turbid gas and poisonous water in the body; Moreover, modern offices are mostly closed air-conditioned buildings, and everyone's seating space is very narrow. Based on politeness, many people have developed the habit of forbearing fart. Moreover, even in summer, the air conditioner in the office building is kept at a low temperature all day, "cold will gather gas", and the cold air blocks the skin, which leads to the disorder of the body's adjustment function to adapt to the solar terms.
A friend asked me to recommend a secret to keep healthy, and I told him, "Let your body warm up-once a day." Body heat can promote blood flow. Originally, after our body was attacked by external evils, the central nervous system would be heated, which could promote the rapid proliferation of immune B cells and T cells. At the same time, the ability of macrophages to swallow and decompose pathogens will be more activated under the condition of fever. When the body temperature exceeds 37 degrees Celsius, the proliferation of pathogens in cells will be inhibited, so it is very beneficial to raise the body temperature through exercise and other means.
Besides keeping the body warm, it is certainly better to add sweat. In recent years, western medicine has gradually accepted the concept of detoxification. German sports medicine found that among all athletes, only marathon runners have no cases of cancer, because they run marathons for more than 30 kilometers every day, and at the same time discharge a lot of sweat from the depths of their bodies, and at the same time discharge carcinogenic components accumulated in their bodies, such as cadmium, lead, copper, nickel and other heavy metals, completely eliminating the root causes of cancer. Sweating can also regulate body temperature. Sweat evaporates from the body surface, which makes people refreshed and happy. Sweating has a good effect on improving chronic diseases, promoting blood circulation, keeping skin moist and keeping slim.
Scientists' experiments have confirmed that deep breathing will accelerate the elimination of toxins in the body. Frequent deep breathing and exercise can remove toxins 15 times faster than usual. The most effective way to breathe is to hold your breath for a while between inhalation and exhalation, so that the blood can make full use of oxygen; At the same time, when you breathe, if you keep breathing,
You can completely expel toxins from your blood. Take three 10 deep breaths every day and persevere. Its effect can exceed any health food.
In addition, the human body will not only feel material loneliness, but also accumulate some invisible yin and evil qi. Many people go to the hospital to check that they are not sick, but they always feel uncomfortable. There are indeed some incurable diseases with unknown reasons, which make patients miserable and have no way to seek medical treatment. Generally speaking, when the body is weak, it is easy to produce yin and evil qi. The so-called "one positive and all evil", we'd better always keep a cheerful and optimistic attitude to cultivate integrity; Practicing breathing regimen is an effective way to improve one's healthy qi, which can naturally avoid the invasion of yin and evil spirits.
