First of all, you should know what your constitution is. Then decide what needs to be added. I think Chinese herbal medicine is a little too strong. If the body has no obvious symptoms, it is safer to eat complementary food.

Then how do you know what your constitution is? Generally speaking, the symptoms of yin deficiency are: weak waist and knees, high spirits, fear of heat and cold, blushing cheekbones, sweating at night, hot flashes and so on. The symptoms of yang deficiency are: fear of cold, cold limbs, long urine, indigestion, light and fat tongue, or teeth marks.

After my own judgment, according to Chinese medicine, food, like medicine, can be divided into cold, hot, warm and cold. Proper use of the four qi and five flavors of food can achieve the function of replenishing qi and blood and regulating the balance of yin and yang.

Warm food can warm the middle warmer, tonify deficiency and dispel cold. Cold food has the functions of clearing away heat, purging fire and detoxifying. In terms of efficacy, food can be divided into invigorating qi, strengthening yang, nourishing blood, nourishing yin, warming the interior, promoting blood circulation, promoting digestion, clearing away heat, astringing, eliminating dampness, resolving phlegm, relieving exterior syndrome and calming the nerves.

Generally speaking, yang should be supplemented in spring and summer, and yin should be supplemented in autumn and winter. The fresher the food, the better. It is best to eat more fruits and vegetables in different seasons, which often gets twice the result with half the effort.

In this regard, you can write a book, so write a summary here.

Second, the schedule.

The best way is to go to bed early and get up early Huangdi Neijing says: Go to bed late in spring and summer and get up early. Go to bed early and get up early in autumn, go to bed early and get up late in winter. In Huangdi Neijing, going to bed early generally means going to bed at 7 pm, going to bed late means going to bed at 2 pm, and going to bed late means going to bed at 9 pm. People nowadays generally can't do it. But I think I should at least 10 sleep. Staying up late is very harmful to your health. Usually at 9 o'clock in the evening, the body begins to detoxify lymph, and the liver begins to detoxify at 1 1. If you don't sleep at this time and overdraw your temper, your body will get hurt over time. So, go to bed early for your health.

Third, the mood.

Be sure to keep a good mood, and don't be overjoyed, sympathetic and furious, which are harmful to the viscera. Anger hurts the liver, thinking hurts the spleen, mourns the lungs, likes sadness, and fears hurting the kidneys. China people pay attention to self-cultivation, and health preservation must start from here. Without a good mind, there will be no good health.

Fourth, exercise.

This part is the most confusing and experimental part for me. At first, I believed that life lies in exercise, so I went to exercise every day. Later, I found that I was dying, my blood dropped badly, and my body became more and more uncomfortable. After reading the book, I found that Chinese medicine does not need more exercise, and physical fatigue is harmful to human health. So I stopped exercising. Later, I found it was not good, and I felt that my body was aging badly. So I continued to study until I finally formed my current concept of sports-I want to exercise, but I don't want to exercise vigorously for a long time. What I do now is to make a set of Yijinjing every morning (not martial arts, just like Tai Chi, it takes about 30 minutes to exercise) and go out for about 2 kilometers in the afternoon (1 hour). I think this kind of exercise is just right, which not only exercises the function of viscera, but also exercises the limbs.

In fact, I rarely insist on doing one thing, but as long as I feel good and right, I usually insist on doing it, such as fitness. I hope I can enjoy the process of health preservation and enjoy the good positive benefits brought by health preservation.
