Traditional health culture emphasizes "getting up early for health";

The Four Seasons in Huangdi's Neijing describes the daily life of the four seasons as follows: (spring) lying at night and getting up early, (summer) lying at night and getting up early, (autumn) lying down and getting up late, and (winter) basically requiring getting up early.

Even in winter, "getting up late" is after the sun rises, about 6: 30 in daylight saving time.

Modern medicine also has many benefits to the study of "getting up early":

Long-term adherence to getting up early can enhance human immunity and greatly reduce the risk of chronic diseases such as colds, heart disease, hypertension and diabetes; People who go to bed early and get up early are emotionally stable, kind and have good interpersonal relationships.

In the morning, as the sun rises, the yang in the outside world begins to rise. Truly sensitive and insightful people often wake up at 5-7 a.m (Shi Mao).

This is not only the health preserving theory of TCM. As long as the kidney is full and the yang is strong, the body will have a physiological reaction of "morning sickness" around 5 o'clock every day.

If you don't get up early, it will be difficult for the yang in your body to be transformed into clearing qi and promoting hair growth. But suffocation in the body will turn into anger and turbid acid. So we all have experience. The later we get up, the more tired we get.

If you don't get up early, the sun is not alive, and you can't warm your limbs, you will be weak and dizzy, and you will also lose your temper. At the same time, because the suffocation of yang turns into internal heat, too many evil fires in the body will need to be reconciled and channeled, and many people get angry when they get up. This is the reason.

Turbid acid corrodes liver and kidney, and liver qi is not produced. This acidic substance will slowly corrode the liver and kidney, resulting in impaired function of liver and kidney organs.

Deficiency of liver and kidney is the most common and influential problem of modern people.

In medicine, gynecological problems account for more than half of female physical problems; Male physical problems, including lack of energy, long-term fatigue, backache, prostate problems, frequent urination, sexual dysfunction, impotence and premature ejaculation.

Fundamentally speaking, these problems are related to the impairment of liver and kidney function.

Kidney is the foundation of congenital, storing essence. Kidney essence has great life energy, which is closely related to human growth, development, health, vitality and reproduction.

Chinese medicine says that "all diseases can't be cured, it depends on the kidney". No matter what incurable disease it is, starting with the kidney will have a good effect.

When the kidney is strong, insomnia, forgetfulness, alopecia, gray hair, physical fatigue, tinnitus and deafness, as well as low back pain, sore knees, cold hands and feet, prostate problems, sexual problems and so on can be improved.

The liver is an extremely special and important organ of the human body. Main liver reinforcement, main drainage (unblocked), main blood storage; The liver begins to understand the eyes, and its brilliance lies in its claws.

As the saying goes, one inch of muscle prolongs life for ten years. A long-lived person, a healthy person, usually has a pair of soft, strong and tough bones and muscles; For friends with poor qi and blood and weak body, the tendons are hard, especially the big tendons at the roots of knees and thighs, which will hurt if they are pulled a little.

The main function of the liver is to excrete and store blood. The former can make the circulation of qi (energy) smooth, while the latter can make the blood sufficient and clean. Nourishing the liver, improving the function of discharging and storing blood, is the best beauty method and the best way to prolong life.

When the liver is full of energy and liver function is vigorous, naturally, the body is soft and powerful, the whole body is comfortable, the mood is cheerful, and the eyes are full of vitality, just like towering trees.

What should I do if I want to make up my liver and kidney? As the old saying goes, it is better to take tonic than to soak your feet in hot water.

Soaking feet with hot water is a very common way to keep fit, but with the accelerated pace of life, many people have no time to soak their feet now. What a pity!

Feet are as important to the human body as roots are to trees. Trees dry and rot, often because the roots are damaged; When people are old and weak, they often start with their feet. A man with feet is like a tree with roots; When a tree dies, the roots are exhausted first, and the old feet are old first.

If you can soak your feet with hot water every night, it will not only relieve fatigue, but also help you sleep. It can not only improve local blood circulation, but also drive away cold, promote metabolism and lead the fire back to its original state.

When soaking feet, the water level does not reach Sanyinjiao, which is equivalent to giving a massage to "Spleen Meridian, Liver Meridian and Kidney Meridian", which can nourish the liver and kidney and warm the spleen and stomach.

Foot is one of the densest acupoints in the human body, and all internal organs have corresponding reflex zones. The meridians of spleen, stomach, liver, kidney and other important organs all pass through here, and are conducted through the meridians when soaking feet, thus further conditioning our internal organs and getting better nourishment.
