In the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, the imbalance of yin and yang in human body is considered as the source of all patients. Let me briefly discuss the theory of Yin and Yang.
Yin-yang theory is a simple materialistic dialectical thought abstracted from long-term production and life practice, which belongs to the philosophical category. The ancients used this theory to explain and explain the laws of movement and change of everything in the universe, the sun, the moon and the stars, the alternation of seasons, social changes and so on. If it is extended to TCM, it will become one of the most basic and core theories of TCM. It is also a symbolic theoretical theory of traditional Chinese medicine. It is the great wisdom and theory of the ancients. As the saying goes, "Yin and Yang, the way of heaven and earth, the discipline of all things, the change of parents, the beginning of life and death, the home of gods". The most distinctive holistic concept of traditional Chinese medicine, the idea of syndrome differentiation and treatment, and the idea that prevention is lighter than treatment are all permeated with the concept of unity of opposites of Yin and Yang theory.
If the yang is too high, the body will be hot, closed, short of breath, difficult to breathe, the body will pitch and sway, sweating and fever, and the teeth will be dry and bored. If the stomach is full, it is a dead disease, and it is a positive disease, so it can still be supported in winter and can't be tolerated in summer. When Yin Qi was full of energy, he was cold and sweaty, or his body often felt cold, and he trembled from time to time, even his hands and feet rebelled. If the hands and feet are rebellious and the abdomen is full, it is a yin disease, so it can still be sustained in summer, but it can't be tolerated in winter. This is the pathological change of yin and yang. Since yin and yang are so important to the human body, what should we do in our daily life?
In our daily life, we need to pay more attention to the balance of body yin and yang, which is the basis of vitality. The balance of yin and yang means that the growth and decline of yin and yang are coordinated, neither excessive nor extreme, showing a coordinated state. Balance of yin and yang makes people healthy and sacred; People with imbalance between yin and yang will get sick, premature aging and even die. Human life is produced by the movement and gasification of yin and yang. Everything that is sunny, cheerful, bright, uplifting and warm belongs to Yang. Everything with its back to the sun is dark and falling, and the cold is cloudy. For the human body, the head is yang, the feet are yin, the body surface is yang, the five internal organs are yin, the six internal organs are yang, the five internal organs are yin, the qi is yang and the blood is yin. If Yin and Yang Can are in balance, then people will be full of blood and energy, the five internal organs will be healthy, and people will look good.
