TCM emphasizes the importance of yang qi because the filling of yang qi can promote the normal functioning of the body and the improvement of immunity. However, there are two factors that are considered "yang killers", namely cold and wet.
Cold and moisture can invade the body, resulting in insufficient yang, which in turn affects immunity. TCM reminds us to pay attention to cold and warmth, avoid diseases caused by cold, and maintain suitable humidity in the room to avoid moisture breeding.
Severe cold causes poor blood flow, and there may be bruising, which in turn blocks our blood vessels, causing pain problems in various parts of the body.
In Chinese medicine theory, blood stasis is considered to be one of the main causes of pain, and the simple understanding is that people will naturally feel pain if the blood flow is not smooth.
When cold invades the body, it will coagulate qi and blood, impede blood circulation, and affect oxygen supply and nutrient delivery. In this case, the blood supply to various tissues and organs of the body may be insufficient, causing painful sensations.
At the same time, cold qi will also make the tendons and veins contract and stiffen, further hinder the normal flow of qi and blood, and aggravate the formation of blood stasis.
In order to improve this situation, TCM practitioners often recommend the following measures: the first is hot compresses, which can help soothe blood vessels, promote blood circulation, relieve bruising and pain.
The second is to regulate qi and blood drugs, traditional Chinese medicine commonly uses some drugs to regulate qi and blood to improve the flow of qi and blood, dissipate blood stasis, and relieve pain.
The third is moxibustion and acupuncture, which are traditional therapies believed to warm the meridians, regulate qi and blood, and help improve blood stasis and relieve pain.
Fourth, adjust eating habits, Chinese medicine believes that some warm foods such as ginger, peppers, etc. can help dispel the cold, while avoiding excessive cold foods, such as frozen foods, to reduce the impact of cold on the body.
If possible, you can also boil water with dried ginger and cinnamon and drink it.
When more moisture accumulates in the body, there is often a feeling of heaviness, tiredness and fatigue, which is caused by moisture blockade and poor flow of qi and blood. Moisture is mainly caused by improper diet, humid environment, physical weakness and other reasons.
It will hinder the normal operation of qi and blood, causing water to stagnate in the body and form moisture. People with heavy moisture often feel sleepy, fatigued, and even have problems with swelling and low mood.
In view of heavy moisture, TCM often recommends the following conditioning measures: first of all, diet conditioning, avoid eating spicy, greasy, raw and cold, wet and heavy foods, such as fried food, raw and cold food, desserts, etc.
Quickly put the yam in the kitchen. Red beans and barley are boiled and eaten, these are the natural enemies of cold.
The second is to use dehumidification and blood activating drugs, and some drugs are commonly used in Chinese medicine to eliminate moisture, activate blood and remove stasis, such as Bai Zhi, Chuanxiong, Red Peony, Bai Shu, Erchen Pill, etc.
But don't take medicine indiscriminately, it's best to go to the Chinese medicine hospital after taking medicine, the third is to move to drive away our moisture.
Finally, soaking our feet with something, most commonly herbs, helps not let the cold take over our body. In addition, keeping the room dry and ventilated and avoiding prolonged exposure to a humid environment is also an important factor in improving moisture problems.
TCM compares Yang Qi to our protective deity, able to withstand ambushes by "demons and monsters". At the same time, the yang should be like the sun every day, and every day can not be absent.
Having sufficient yang qi can maintain the normal function and coordination of internal organs. The abundance of yang qi can promote the smooth circulation of qi and blood, provide the supply of nutrients and oxygen, and enhance the metabolic capacity of the internal organs.
It also helps digestion and absorption of nutrients, excretes waste, maintains normal body temperature, and provides sufficient energy and vitality to the human body.
When Yang Qi is insufficient, the body may experience a series of problems, such as fatigue, tiredness, decreased immunity, indigestion, etc.
At this time, it is necessary to promote the production and operation of yang qi by adjusting eating habits, good work and rest time, moderate exercise, and dialectical treatment of traditional Chinese medicine.
In conclusion, adequate yang in the body is very important for maintaining overall health.
By eating a balanced diet, exercising actively, developing good lifestyle habits and seeking proper TCM conditioning, yang levels can be enhanced, the body's defenses can be strengthened, and the normal functioning of the body's systems can be promoted.
But many netizens also provide everyone with a more convenient way, exercise more, bask in the sun more, go to bed early and sleep enough, think less and move more, and rise without adding any additional yang.
The simplest thing is to soak your feet every night, soak until your back sweats slightly, stick to it, and soon there will be no problems, so the most important thing is to act quickly.
