Good evening to all my fellow friends from the Rich Camp. I am Shu Yan. I am a nutritionist of traditional Chinese medicine and a dietary therapist of traditional Chinese medicine. I have 7 years of experience in traditional Chinese medicine health care and offline conditioning. I have 3,000 customers, many of whom are worth over 100 million yuan, and I have also helped many customers get out of depression. My lifelong mission is to spread the concept of health and let 10,000 people live a healthy and return to nature life.
First of all, thank you very much, Sister Q, for inviting me to share with you this time. The theme I want to share with you this time is related to our summer health care.
We The sharing is divided into three parts
The characteristics of the first summer
How to maintain health in the second summer
How to eat in the third summer
The emphasis is on Let me introduce to you our Sanfu moxibustion section
First of all, let’s understand the characteristics of our summer health regimen:
Everyone knows that we are in summer
Summer refers to the 24 solar terms in a year from the beginning of summer to the beginning of autumn. Summer includes 6 solar terms. It is said in Su Wen's theory of the four qi regulating the spirit that in the third month of summer, it is the season of beauty, and the qi of heaven and earth interact with all things, so that It is said that summer is the time when Yang Qi is the strongest in the year. The surface of the earth is steaming, it is very hot, and there is a lot of rain. All things in nature are in a process of growth. This is the same in our natural world. Spring is born, summer is long, autumn is harvested, and winter is stored. As for summer, the emphasis is on this growth. , growing long. Health care pays attention to the unity of nature and man, which means that it must comply with the characteristic of summer when Yang Qi is abundant outside.
How do we understand the yang energy that is abundant in this summer? Let’s do a simple interaction. In summer, is it hot on the ground or in a well? Why? There will be exclusive red envelopes for correct answers, haha
To give you a simple example from life, I am born in the 1990s. I went to primary school in Shanghai. At that time, all the rented houses in Shanghai before demolition had wells outside. If I want to eat iced watermelon in summer, my parents basically use a bucket to sink the watermelon into a well and leave it for a long time. This watermelon is the same as the watermelon we put in the refrigerator, and it feels cold.
Because the yang energy in nature is contained outside, it is cold underground. The same is true for our human bodies. The yang energy in our human body is We tend to feel very hot when it floats on the surface of the body, so we are greedy for coolness (wanting to eat ice cream, drink cold drinks, iced watermelon, etc.), but in fact the internal organs in our body are as cool as a well. In a state where the Yang Qi in the internal organs is insufficient, especially those with a weak spleen and stomach, they cannot resist the invasion of cold Qi. This is why many people experience stomach discomfort, bloating or diarrhea when eating cold food.
The two most important characteristics of our summer health care
1. Traditional Chinese medicine says that nourishing yang in spring and summer, so the first focus is to replenish yang energy. People with sufficient yang energy will naturally There will be less cold and dampness
Why does everyone lack yang energy? Li Ke, an old Chinese medicine doctor, said that nine out of ten people have yang deficiency, 8 to 9 out of 10 people. This is consistent with our living habits. Inextricably, the most important contemporary cause is air conditioning and the other is antibiotics. The breath of life refers to Yang Qi. Why do people die without Yang Qi? Suppose a person is in a car accident. Even if he loses a lot of blood, as long as he has breath, can we save the person with a blood transfusion? And if the person has no breath, no matter how much blood transfusion is done, it will not help. This is the importance of breath.
2. During the four seasons of health maintenance
Spring nourishes the liver, summer nourishes the heart, autumn nourishes the lungs, winter nourishes the kidneys, and long summer nourishes the spleen and stomach.
OK, now that we understand the characteristics of summer, we need to nourish yang, remove dampness and cold, and nourish the spleen and stomach. Among our many health methods, scraping, cupping, steaming, and bathing , moxibustion and so on, the most suitable for us to nourish yang and remove dampness is none other than our moxibustion.
Let me tell you two stories about moxibustion, so that everyone can understand the efficacy of our moxibustion more intuitively
(The story of Wang Chao, the thief who picked flowers) The story of Sanfu moxibustion? Supplement The role of Yang Qi
(The story of fungus) Why it can remove cold and dampness
Moxibustion during the Dog Days is the best time to treat winter diseases in the summer
Usually during the Dog Days Appearing between Xiaoshu and Sushu, it is the hottest, humid and muggy day of the year. The Dog Day period happens to be the time when nature’s yang energy is strongest and yin energy is weakest. At this time, the human body’s skin pores open, the metabolism in the body is relatively strong, and the qi and blood in the meridians are smoother than in winter.
Why moxibustion can get twice the result with half the effort at this time? With the help of moxibustion, sticking and other therapies, it is not only conducive to the rapid penetration of the drug, reaching deep into the organs, so that the treatment effect is twice the result with half the effort. It can also use the combination of heavenly yang, earthly yang and human yang to simultaneously expel the yin, cold and dampness accumulated over a long period of time, adjust the balance of yin and yang in the human body, control and recover old diseases, and strengthen the body's resistance. The infusion of Qi has been enhanced.
That is what is called
Because our teacher Ating has shared some symptoms and how to use moxibustion for some groups last time. For example, children focus on the spleen and stomach and growth, the elderly focus on the heart, lungs and joints, and women In the gynecology section, I won’t go into details here
A What are our common moxibustion equipment?
1. Patch? Sanfu patch? It’s easier to apply powdered medicine, just stick it directly on the acupoints on the body
2. Aai patch? Put it on the acupoint and light it. It ends automatically after burning, which is more convenient. Convenient for business trips
3. The futon is suitable for gynecology, smoking, good effect, and difficult to carry
4. The electric moxibustion instrument is simple to operate, does not require high professional skills, and is a new technology
Other peripherals
1. Foot bath pack with mugwort + ginger to keep away cold
2. Mugwort fumigation? mugwort sachet, etc.
B The amount of moxibustion is very important
Moxibustion, long time + fire
The amount is reflected in the number of times, such as the amount of moxibustion on one acupoint and 5 acupoints.
There is another difference between 5 minutes and 1 hour of moxibustion
Pay attention to the feeling of moxibustion
1. Burning
2. Itching
3. Especially lazy in the local area
4. Sticky sweat
5. Cold sweat
Everyone’s body constitution is different. The improvement response to moxibustion will also be different.
Now let’s share how we eat in summer. In summer, there are several key points in eating.
The first one is to clear away heat and relieve summer heat. In summer, the weather is hotter and the heat is heavier. Many people are weak and are more likely to suffer from heatstroke. Some may even faint. In some serious cases, there may be nausea and vomiting. In addition to our normal prevention, When suffering from the heat, we can also use some heat-clearing and relieving foods, such as mung beans, mung bean soup, green tea, sour plum soup
Or some slightly sweeter fruits or vegetables, such as watermelon and tomatoes, these are fine It has the effect of clearing away heat and relieving summer heat. Summer is also a time when humidity is particularly high. At this time, if you are very humid, you will lose energy and appetite. If you have some, you will be particularly prone to bloating or diarrhea. At this time, you will see a mung bean. , lentils, winter melon, cucumbers and so on.
2. The second is to have a light diet. At this time, you should eat light things, especially those with less oil, because the long summer itself is a time to nourish the spleen and stomach. If you eat too much greasy things If it does, it will increase the burden on the spleen and stomach. Summer is hotter and people's digestive systems are weaker. At this time, it is not suitable to eat big fish and meat. These difficult-to-digest foods are particularly likely to cause bloating or inability to eat. When eating, you should reduce meat and eat more fruits and vegetables. In summer, you should mainly eat vegetarian food. We can use mixing, steaming, and boiling cooking methods
3. The diet must be hygienic, because summer is relatively hot, and some microorganisms are easier to breed at this time, and food is also easier to rot and deteriorate. Diseases such as vomiting and diarrhea are prone to occur. We must take good care of the disease when it enters through the mouth. We must ensure food hygiene. Do not eat rotten things, do not drink raw water, and be sure to wash vegetables and fruits. .
4. Don’t eat too much cold food, because it is hot in summer. Although you sweat a lot, many people like to eat cool food, such as soft drinks, but if you are weak, Or some people who have just recovered from an illness, or who have severe dampness and coldness in the spleen and stomach, cannot eat these, because the yang energy of the spleen and stomach itself is relatively weak, which can easily lead to various gastrointestinal discomforts.
What do you recommend to eat?
Watermelon tomato juice
1 watermelon, 3 tomatoes
Wash the watermelon and take out the inside Cut the slice into large pieces, then wash the tomatoes, squeeze them with a juicer, and mix the two juices together. In terms of efficacy, it can clear away heat, relieve heat, produce body fluids and quench thirst, because watermelon has a slightly cold surname, but it The stomach meridian and bladder meridian have the effect of clearing away heat and relieving summer heat. Tomato meridian is acidic, cold, and can produce body fluids and quench thirst. If the two are combined, you can drink it as a daily drink.
Longjing tea
Three grams of Longjing tea, put it directly into the tea cup and start brewing.
Longjing tea is the top-grade green tea from West Lake in Hangzhou. As for green tea, it enters the three meridians of the heart, lungs and stomach, and can relieve summer heat.
