Miss Nan: You should nourish your liver in spring. Contrary to the natural laws of spring, the liver is prone to problems.

"The liver is the foundation of the extreme, and the soul lives its claws. It fills the tendon to produce blood gas. Its taste is sour and its color is light. This is the deficiency of yang in the yang, which is connected with spring. " The liver is the soul, and our spiritual soul is here. "In its paw", nail. Therefore, many people visit doctors by visiting doctors, and I still remember to see my nails. I come from the countryside, where there is an old woman, and I am also a midwife. At that time, there was no obstetrics and gynecology department, called midwife, and I respected her very much. When the child is ill, please ask her to come. I will follow her to see her nails as soon as she comes. When I was a child, I was naughty and asked her, good grandma! How do you know what's wrong here She can judge the child's condition by the appearance of this meridian. "Filled in the tendon" is different from the calcaneus, and the tendon outside is blood. "To generate blood gas, its taste is sour and its color is light", so the liver likes sour taste, and its color is purple, blue and green with a little red.

"Cold and heat due to wind, cold due to spring, and evil spirits are lingering, which is a vent." For example, when we sleep, or when we sleep in the wild, especially when we were soldiers fighting in 2000, we really need to know this set. At that time, I slept regardless of life and death, and I was too tired to care about anything. Soldiers in the war are pitiful, and people should not be watched by others. For example, people in the navy are extremely hot, but there is a rule that it is absolutely forbidden to sleep on the deck. It was nice to sleep on the deck with the sea breeze blowing at night, but within a few months, I had a stroke and couldn't move my hands. What about you now? I'm sorry, I'm a little richer at home, sleeping in air conditioning and being greedy for cold; Especially young people, lovers or lovers, have sex with air conditioning on, and there are only four words: "I am sure to die." But you didn't expect it. I often meet some people, and I can see at a glance that this is typhoid fever, which is terrible and easy to meet. This talk is about "both cold and heat are caused by the wind", so spring is injured by the wind, "evil spirits linger" and "diarrhea is the point".

"Winter cold hurts the body, and spring blossoms." Another one said, "If you don't hide essence in winter, you will get sick in spring." Excessive cold in winter, cold without clothes, cold in winter and spring fever. Speaking of the fever in spring, we were still in Hong Kong that year and heard about the SARS. I'm just laughing, and our mayor knows it. I said it was a fever! For febrile diseases, Xiaochaihu decoction is enough. After I talked about it, it spread in Beijing, and Shanghai and Beijing Xiaochaihu soup could not be bought, which was extremely expensive. Therefore, "Treatise on Febrile Diseases in Winter, Fever in Spring" is the truth.

"Spring in March, this is called hair Chen, heaven and earth are born, everything is proud of it, lying at night and getting up early, striding towards the court, walking slowly, making life alive, not killing life, not giving away, rewarding and punishing, this spring spirit should be the way of keeping in good health. On the contrary, it hurts the liver, and it is cold in summer and has few elders. "

"Spring and March, this is called hair Chen." The first sentence is not about March in spring, especially not the solar calendar, but the lunar calendar. This refers to the three months of spring. A year is divided into four seasons, and one season is three months. Please note that when we study oriental medicine and Chinese medicine, we must also understand Indian medicine. India has only three seasons and four months in a year, but medical science is much worse than ours, and each has its own advantages. Our Tibetan doctors use Indian medical principles. After the reunification of the country, some Tibetan doctors have added the truth of Chinese medicine, which needs attention. "Spring March" is the third month of spring. According to medicine, "emerging" means that the old is replaced by the new, and the old diverges and becomes new; That is, angry.

"Heaven and earth are born, and everything is glorious." Our bodies match the climate of heaven and earth. According to the Taoist concept, the human body is a small world, and the whole world is just one person. This is the old view that astronomical research should cooperate with human body. Spring is the season of growth, and everything is thriving.

Speaking of keeping in good health, there is one more thing to tell you. Huangdi Neijing has a major concept, which is the same as that of Taoism. The important thing in life is to keep healthy. Not hygiene. Western culture stresses hygiene, which is negative. Wei is to defend and defend. Health preservation is positive. Cultivate your existing life and cultivate it yourself. I'm talking about health preservation here, not hygiene. But how to keep fit? Let's talk about what spring should be like first, but we can't do it now.

Every year in the second and third month of the lunar calendar in the middle of spring, the ancients have a description of the word "spring sleep" in A Dream of Red Mansions. In spring, the weather gets warmer and the grass grows and the warblers fly. People are sleepy and have no spirit. People's bodies are lazy, their brains are motionless, and they just want to sleep.

"Get up early at night and walk in court." Get up in the morning and do more exercise. I often tell many athletes who study Zen, especially those who study martial arts and Zen now, that they have no time during the day and go to parks and Woods to practice martial arts at night. I said you won't die! What do you mean? At night, in the park forest, suck carbon gas; Because vegetation releases carbon gas at night and oxygen in the morning. As a result, I have to practice at night. It is really interesting! This needs understanding!

"Be slow, lest volunteers. Live without killing, give without taking, reward without punishment. " The ancient people's hair was tied up, so it's better to spread it and give it growth. Like animals, we shed our hair in spring and autumn, and animals change their hair in spring and autumn. So did we. Nobody noticed. So at this time, "let your life" will make your consciousness come. "Live without killing" is related to medicine and politics, so don't kill. "Give without taking, reward without punishment." For the biological world, you can only give it, don't punish it, don't kill it.

You all know "second guessed", right? Why? China's previous law, is committed a felony, unless it is very serious, rarely dealt with on the spot. After the verdict, the execution must wait until autumn, which is based on the climate season. Because killing is not allowed in spring, "settling accounts after autumn" came like this. When autumn comes, you should behead those who deserve it. Thousands of years ago, the imperial system said that spring could not be killed.

Therefore, the ancients had two words: "I advise you not to shoot three spring birds, and the son is looking forward to his mother's return in the nest." Birds are not allowed to hit in spring, because birds are in their nests waiting for their mother to come back and feed them! Otherwise, the mother bird will be killed and the bird will starve to death in the nest, which is very tragic. The truth of "harmony between man and nature" in China culture is related to the climate. In the past, children studied and teachers taught, which became life education. This kind of education seems trivial, but it is kindness and love.

"This spring should be the way to keep fit." This is about keeping in good health in spring, that's all. "On the contrary, it hurts the liver, it gets cold in summer, and there are fewer elders." Spring is the time to grow your body, so let your hair open, feel better, everything is fine, go to bed early and get up early at night, and your body should be maintained like this, but you haven't talked about your mental state yet.

If you violate this life, your liver is prone to problems. Spring belongs to wood, and wood governs the liver. You heard there was something wrong with the liver. Now medicine thinks it's cancer, but it's actually liver-qi damage. What is "liver qi"? This is the difference between Chinese medicine and western medicine. Later, western medicine came, and he was the first to oppose Chinese medicine, saying that Chinese medicine was nonsense, and the liver was dissected on the left, but it was clearly on the right. I still admit that the liver is on the left, which means "liver qi"; The place where the body nerve intersection starts is on the left, indicating that the liver qi is still on the left.

So we look at the pulse condition of traditional Chinese medicine, the heart, liver and kidney are on the left, and the lungs, spleen and life gate are on the right. Nothing wrong, nothing wrong, it is the source of liver qi. Qi veins cross, up and down, left and right. This network is like this. So if you violate the natural laws of spring, your liver will have problems. We are angry, depressed, introverted and wronged, all of which are harmful to the liver. There are psychological contents in Huangdi Neijing, so it is beneficial to study psychology and physiology together.

Speaking of liver problems in spring, in fact, our whole climate is hot and cold. Spring gradually turns from cold to warm, and it will be summer when the firepower is strong. So we only talk about the history of China in the Spring and Autumn Period. Spring and autumn are the best, and the time between day and night is even. In the twenty-four solar terms, you can wear clothes at the vernal equinox and autumn equinox. After the warm climate in spring, the heat is high and summer is coming. "It gets cold in summer". How can it be cold in summer? This means that it is very cold in summer. "There are fewer elders" and less time for growth. Spring is the season for all things to grow.

Xiao Yan's Huangdi Neijing and the Analects of Confucius, the life science, are the same thing.
