Keeping in good health in spring should conform to the characteristics that the sun is god and everything is born in spring, and pay attention to the spirit of protecting the sun, focusing on the word "health". According to the nature, spring belongs to wood, corresponding to liver. This is the theory of five elements, which explains the physiological characteristics of five internal organs with the characteristics of five elements. For example, the liver likes regulating qi, has the function of relieving qi, and has no characteristics of hair growth, so the liver belongs to "wood". The physiological characteristics of the liver, which governs qi, anger and depression, are conducive to regulating qi. In the aspect of mental health in spring, we should try to avoid rage and depression, be open-minded and optimistic, and maintain a good attitude. At the same time, we should make full use of and cherish the "old" spring of nature, make use of the rise of yang, the appearance of everything and the vigorous metabolism of human body, and make the qi of Yang can be announced in spring and the metabolic function can operate normally through proper adjustment.
If middle-aged and elderly friends find that their limbs are weak and often cramp, they may wish to use moxibustion at "Taichong point" to replenish liver qi. "Taichong point" is the original point of the liver meridian, and it is also a warehouse for storing the vitality of the liver meridian. Moxibustion for 20 minutes every day can nourish and protect the liver. And consciously and forcibly repeating the action of grasping every day can also play a role in nourishing the liver. Chinese medicine experts from Xie Xiliang Moxibustion Health Center reminded that "Taichong point" is also a famous point for regulating qi. However, when people are angry, it is best not to stimulate "Taichong point" with moxibustion, but to excrete liver qi by pressing and rubbing. The position of "Taichong point" is roughly at the two transverse fingers of the seam between the first toe and the second toe.
