TCM health preservation includes a series of health preservation principles, such as nourishing body and mind, coordinating yin and yang, conforming to nature, nourishing diet, carefully living, regulating viscera, dredging meridians, abstinence and nourishing essence, invigorating qi and regulating breath, and proper exercise and rest. Coordination and balance is its core idea. When a person's body reaches a balance point, it is the healthiest and "disease prevention".
In terms of health care, the most important thing is to nourish the heart. "Being indifferent to my heart all my life" is a high spiritual realm. Everyone has joy, anger, sadness, joy, sadness, fear and surprise. This is a person's seven emotions, too much is too emotional. "People who often look at the world, those who are kind live long, those who are good in quality live long, those who are large in quantity live long, and those who are brief live long. Gai Si, the end of benevolence is also, so the benevolent is born. " Benevolence is to be gentle, kind, generous and humorous. Benevolence and virtue are the intrinsic elements of a person's health. Huangdi Neijing emphasizes "indifferent to nothingness" and says "indifferent to nothingness, conforming to the true qi, hiding the spirit inside, and preventing diseases". In short, it is to be "light".
There are many factors that affect health and longevity, such as congenital inheritance, natural environment, socio-economic and technological development, medical level, nutritional status, personal occupation and so on. But it is also important to pay attention to the way of keeping in good health. Neijing puts the prevention-oriented idea of "prevention before illness" to a strategic height, and points out that the key to anti-aging is to implement the correct way of health preservation. Disease is the enemy of health. However, Neijing holds that "healthy qi should be kept inside, and evil should not be done". So the purpose of health preservation is to cultivate healthy qi, enhance resistance, and not get sick or get sick less.
Therefore, a real hot spring should give every guest a nourishing environment, so that guests can be in the real nature and relax in the real natural landscape. Only when the environment is elegant and the mood is comfortable can we achieve the effect of health preservation.
Adapting to the four seasons is the best way to maintain health in hot springs of traditional Chinese medicine. Throughout the year, summer belongs to fire, fire is in the heart, fire is Yang, and Yang takes the initiative. In addition, there is a fire in the heart, and the two fires intersect, and the mind is easily disturbed and uneasy, causing anxiety; Disturbance will make the heart beat faster, increase the burden on the heart, which is not conducive to nourishing the heart. Therefore, in summer, we must first be calm, "calm and naturally cool", quiet is yin, and yin and yang coordinate to maintain the heart.
In summer, the mood should be cheerful and relaxed, not too angry and not too happy. In the "seven emotions" of joy, anger, worry, thinking, sadness, surprise and fear, although the relationship between heart and joy is the greatest, we can't be too happy or too sad, otherwise it will be easy to be sad. Why did Fan Jinzhong suddenly faint after rejoicing in ancient times? Because I'm so happy and sad. Huangdi Neijing said: "Xia San Month ... makes people angry." That's what it means.
Don't have a "bitter summer" mentality. Summer is hot, humid and steaming, which is prone to physical and psychological fatigue, showing no spirit, just want to lie in bed and don't want to eat; I don't want to participate in social activities, I just want to stay at home. In this case, you should go out more, communicate more with people and enjoy a cool summer in the hot springs. In the modern concept of hot springs, hot springs in summer can be made into waves, cold fog and even turn hot spring steam into snowflakes. At Tianmu Hot Spring, you can turn "bitter summer" into enjoying summer.
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the winter weather rises, the ground gas drops and the second gas closes, so it is called "winter storage". Modern medicine believes that "hiding in winter" is the response of the human body to adapt to the cold thorn in winter, and it is very important to grasp "early" in winter: as the saying goes: "winter movement is less sick; Lazy in winter, drink a bowl of medicine. " Facts have proved that taking part in outdoor activities in winter can make the body get proper cold stimulation, accelerate the heart beating, deepen breathing, strengthen metabolism in the body, increase the heat generated by the body and be beneficial to health. However, it is advisable to sweat a little or not in winter to prevent the yang from leaking out. This is because kidney water is dirty, and it is very important to tonify kidney and nourish essence in winter. Kidney stores essence, so kidney is called the root of sealing and storing. Kidney essence is related to the whole process of human life, including growth, development and reproduction. The kidney also controls the bone marrow and the brain, thus affecting human brain function. So it is very important to maintain kidney essence. At this time, only hot springs are most suitable for this quiet health. No matter how cold the weather is, lying in warm hot spring water, keeping the kidneys warm, sweating a little and enjoying the unique snow scene in winter is the best health care.
Health care is a lifelong career, and it is not the most appropriate to rely on hot springs or a certain way to keep healthy. According to the theory of ancient people's health preservation, modern people should remember this truth: "Life begins at thirteen: emptiness, nothingness, purity, smallness, widowhood, softness, weakness, inferiority, loss, timeliness, harmony and frugality." In other words, the way to keep fit is to follow the thirteen essentials. They are: no distractions in mind, indifferent to the secular world, pure in heart, completely eliminating vulgar thoughts, cautious in heart, no fault, no greed, soft-hearted and not arrogant, willing to be a weak heart, self-respecting, derogating too much words and deeds, knowing the times, adapting to the changes of the four seasons, being modest and advocating simplicity.
