1. Methods for regulating Qi deficiency constitution

1. People with Qi deficiency are fat and those with blood deficiency are thin

For extremely fat and extremely thin people, balancing Qi and blood is the key to six One word: fatness replenishes qi, thinness replenishes blood. Insufficient qi leads to obesity. There are four reasons for this. Obese people can be divided into four categories: qi deficiency, yang deficiency, phlegm-dampness, and damp-heat.

People with qi deficiency have weak qi transformation function and cannot vaporize body fat.

For those with Yang deficiency, Yang Qi is weak, causing the Qi transformation function to weaken.

For those with phlegm and dampness, the qi is not deficient in nature, but there is phlegm and dampness in the body. The combination of the two hinders the movement of qi and causes qi deficiency in the body.

In cases of dampness and heat, the combination of dampness and heat in the body hinders the movement of Qi, thus causing Qi deficiency.

Qi deficiency caused by different reasons has different conditioning methods. Different body types have different health regimens.

2. Qingxin moxibustion to replenish qi deficiency

Those who are obese are generally weak and often catch colds. They often have chest tightness and shortness of breath, dizziness and forgetfulness. Chest tightness and shortness of breath can easily be mistaken for heart failure. question. You can take a self-test: If the tongue is fat and enlarged, with teeth marks on the sides, it means Qi deficiency.

It is recommended to use three moves to replenish qi. One method is to keep in mind the general direction of replenishing Qi due to Qi deficiency. The three methods are to clear the mind, drink porridge, and moxibustion.

The reason why many fat people suffer from qi deficiency is a guilty conscience, which is caused by thinking too much, worrying about gains and losses all day long. Fat people should first purify their minds when maintaining health. There are many ways to purify the mind, and the Zhanzhuang method is one of them.

3. Clap your hands in the morning to replenish Qi and soak your feet in the evening to replenish blood

Hands are the base camp of Yang Qi. When the sun rises in the morning, Yang Qi rises between heaven and earth. At this time, clapping your hands can vibrate Yang Qi and promote Yang Qi rises and the Qi of the whole body is dredged. Spread your fingers apart, palm to palm, and fingers to fingers, and pat evenly. Remember to separate your thumb from the other four fingers to avoid excessive clapping that may cause congestion. You can tap lightly at first and then gradually increase the intensity. Use it as much as your hands can bear, and not too lightly, otherwise it will not be able to stimulate the acupuncture points and reflex zones on your palms.

Clapping is best done in the early morning. If you feel that the noise made when clapping is too loud and unacceptable, you can also clap with "hollow palms". Arch your palm and spread your fingers. When you pat down, you can hit the fingertips and the edge of the palm. However, this method reduces the striking surface and the effect will be poor, and the patting time will be relatively longer.

In addition to photographing each other with your palms, you can also photograph each other with the backs of your left and right palms, and photograph each other with your left and right hands. Each small movement is aimed at one or several important acupuncture points and reflex areas, stimulating them to open up the meridians and ensure smooth flow of qi and blood.

The feet are the base camp of Yin blood. The sky is yang, the earth is yin, the head is yang, the feet are yin, qi is yang, and blood is yin. The three most important yin meridians in the human body all converge in the feet. They are the kidney meridian of foot Shaoyin and the spleen meridian of foot taiyin. and the Liver Meridian of Foot Jueyin. The kidneys produce blood, the liver stores blood, and the spleen controls blood. If the blood flow in the feet is slow, the functions of the kidneys, liver, and spleen are affected, and the blood supply to the entire human body will be insufficient. At this time, people will feel cold all over and their limbs will be weak. .

When a person is cold, his feet are cold first. The feet are the base camp of Yin blood. When the feet are cold, blood circulation will slow down, so it is easier to feel cold in this place than elsewhere. The method is to soak your feet at night. Yang Qi converges and Yin Qi is strong at night. At this time, soaking your feet in hot water can warm Yin blood and play a role in nourishing Yin and blood.

The conditioning plan introduced today will be helpful in improving Qi and blood weakness. If you also have the problem of Qi and blood weakness, you might as well try these conditioning methods.

The editor reminds me that there are many ways to improve weak Qi and blood. Traditional Chinese medicine massage, diet therapy, and medicine all have good conditioning effects. Because individual physiques are different, the applicable conditioning methods will also be different. Therefore, you must be careful when choosing a conditioning regimen.
