Severely ill at the winter solstice. ——"Plain Questions: The Great Theory of Four Qi Adjusting the Spirit"
The three months of summer can be called a lush and beautiful season. The qi of heaven and earth meet up and down, and all kinds of plants bloom and bear fruit. At this time, it is advisable to go to bed late and get up early, not to be tired of the long day, to keep the will and mind quiet and free of anger, to make the divine light full and bright, to let the yang qi open and vent, as if there is love outside. This is the way people respond to the summer qi, so as to recuperate the long qi. Violation of this rule will damage the heart and qi, malaria may occur in autumn, and the ability to adapt to qi will be reduced. When winter comes, serious illness occurs.
I don’t know if I have any friends recently, but I always feel very uncomfortable, dizzy for no reason, and my body always feels tired and sleepy. Some even have a heart beating, and I can’t get my spirits up at work. These situations will be attributed to heatstroke, but in fact, we should pay more attention to whether it is a deficiency of qi.
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that "spring nourishes the liver, summer nourishes the heart, autumn nourishes the lungs, and winter nourishes the kidney", so there is a saying that "the heart is connected to the summer qi".
In a year, summer belongs to fire, which corresponds to the heart. In summer, the temperature is high, the air humidity is high, the metabolism of the human body is accelerated, and the blood circulation is also accelerated, which will increase the burden on the heart.
Especially after falling into ambush, it is the "high incidence period" of heart disease. This time period is the most sultry time of the year. Heat will consume qi and hurt the yin. Excessive sweating will aggravate the symptoms of qi deficiency. Therefore, people with insufficient qi will experience palpitations and shortness of breath.
Chinese medicine believes that qi and blood are interdependent. At the same time when the heart is qi deficiency, there may also be blood deficiency, and the heart qi deficiency may also develop into a heart yang deficiency.
Therefore, while nourishing the heart in summer, we must also pay attention to nourishing yang, nourishing yin and producing fluid!
