Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the five internal organs correspond to the four seasons of nature, so we should maintain our main organs according to different seasons: nourishing the liver in spring, nourishing the heart in summer, nourishing the lungs in autumn, nourishing the kidney in winter and nourishing the spleen and stomach in four seasons.
In the spring of March, plants germinate and everything recovers, and there is a thriving and vibrant scene everywhere. At this time, people just woke up from the cold winter, blood circulation accelerated, metabolism became more frequent, and the demand for food and exercise increased. In this way, the burden of the liver, which is mainly responsible for food digestion and absorption and blood storage regulation, will increase. Therefore, if you want to keep healthy and prolong life, you should take good care of your liver in spring.
Summer is the season when everything grows, flourishes, develops and matures. At this time, the human blood circulation intensifies, and the burden on the heart also increases. In summer, the yang is strong outside and the heart is strong. Therefore, Chinese medicine believes that the way to maintain health in summer lies in nourishing the heart, and peace of mind makes the blood flow smoothly, which makes people feel refreshed.
Autumn is the season when everything matures, and life has entered the harvest contraction period. In summer, the climate changes from wet to dry, from hot to cool. The metabolism of life goes from vigorous to weak, and gradually goes to low tide. For the human body, during this period, breathing becomes the main life feature, and a little carelessness will lead to infection. The lung governs qi and is responsible for human breathing. Therefore, Chinese medicine believes that the key to autumn health care lies in moistening the lungs and nourishing the heart, moistening the lungs and refreshing, breathing smoothly and being calm, so as not to get sick. This is the way adopted by Chinese medicine.
Winter is the season when everything withers. When life enters the winter sting period, human metabolism slows down day by day and enters the rest period. Kidney is the foundation of life, the source of essence, qi and spirit, and the birthplace of yin essence and Yang Qi. Therefore, Chinese medicine believes that the key to health preservation in winter is to tonify the kidney. When the kidney is well nourished, the yang is hidden in it, full of energy and yang, and the next year will be full of vitality and vitality. This is the way to raise Tibet.
