At the beginning of winter, the yin and yang between heaven and earth are flourishing and declining, the sky is high and the earth is wide, the mountains are far away and the rivers are clear, and the emptiness is lonely. For people, the same is true, the outside is cold, and the inside is yang. Winter is the end of life, but also the lurking of life, raising winter well means that the next spring, it is the grass warblers flying, the sun is shining.
"The Yellow Emperor's Inner Classic": These three months of winter are the season when all things in heaven and earth are closed--- the grass and trees wither, the animals burrow, the thousands of miles of ice are frozen, and there is no life.
People should conform to the Heavenly Dao, do not consume Yang Qi at will, go to bed early and get up late, the sun can come out to get up, and conform to the rise of Yang Qi; people should not be too happy or sad in spirit, they should be introverted and calm; they must be warm, do not suffer from cold; and do not make a sweat and consume Yang Qi.
This is the law of conforming to the winter qi and collecting the yang qi. In winter, yang qi cannot be stored in the kidneys, and in the spring, the liver wood will grow weak and paralyzed.
The core of TCM health: Shun Tian Shi!
Follow the changes in the timing of heaven and earth, "spring birth, summer long, autumn harvest, and winter hiding", to arrange their own food, clothing, shelter and transportation.
Lidong is the beginning of winter, which opens the prelude to winter and March, and health care also opens the drama of "winter Tibet"!
Winter, what to hide?
Of course, it is a collection of "yang qi" --- "yang qi of the internal organs"! Convergence of yang qi into the kidneys. Only by accumulating enough Yang Qi can we resist the intrusion of external evil --- the "cold and dry qi" in winter.
Why "hide"?
Most of the plant flowers and leaves fall, and the "yang returns to the roots" is to avoid the harm of the cold and evil atmosphere; it is also to accumulate energy for the growth of next spring. The deeper the Sun, the more powerful the spring and summer grow!
"Hidden Yang" is the most important core point of seasonal health in winter!
Winter kidneys do not hide water, spring has no livelihood!
That is to say: if we do not do a good job of collecting in winter, it will hurt the kidneys! The kidney is the innate foundation, the foundation moves, and a hundred diseases appear in the spring.
After the winter of this year, there are 2 aspects to be vigilant about:
1, Li Dong - Xiaoxue these 15 days of "winter summer", hindering the collection of heart and kidneys, so that the Yang Qi leaks out, will be affected by the winter cold and evil, the heart and kidneys are weak, afraid of cold, heart failure, myocardial infarction population increases.
2, at this time, the human body is still in the "summer long" leakage state, the spleen and stomach are weak, coupled with the heavy humidity this year, so the number of people with spleen and stomach problems will increase.
Finally, it is necessary to remind two more points:
1, a healthy human body should be cool and warm, cool is not floating, and the kidney water is warm.
At the beginning of winter, when paying attention to the early morning cold water to wash your face (room temperature can be, not ice water, cold is afraid of cold and arthritis), soak your feet in hot water before going to bed (you can sweat slightly), so that people can be cool and warm down, in order to conform to the laws of nature, very beneficial to the yang qi back to the root, prevent colds.
2. For those who are weak in the body, it is recommended to start from Lidong to supplement the kidneys. When the winter and March are dominated by the kidneys, the kidneys are easy to work, and borrowing the winter and March to supplement the kidneys is to conform to the laws of heaven and earth and make the yang return to the root, which is to accumulate yin essence and help the human body restore the balance of yin and yang. When the kidneys are well nourished, they are more energetic, sleep is heavier, and their hands and feet are warmer, which are all reactions of the kidneys being vigorous and returning to the roots.
