How does Confucianism and Taoism view traditional Chinese medicine health culture?

Nowadays, after solving the problem of food and clothing, people are most concerned about health and health preservation. You may walk into a bookstore, turn on the TV, or talk to people, and all kinds of health knowledge will come to you. This shows how much people attach importance to health care.

Tracing back to its roots, TCM health culture is an important part of TCM culture and comes from ancient Chinese philosophical thought. As "the first of all the classics", "The Book of Changes" is an important carrier of Confucianism and Taoism, and has become the source of traditional Chinese culture. While building a splendid Chinese civilization, it also influenced traditional Chinese medicine, Chinese people and Chinese society.

At present, the rise of this new whirlwind of traditional health care has profoundly demonstrated that the wisdom of Confucianism and Taoism not only meets the needs of people's lives in modern society, but also has profound guiding significance in scientific health care.

"Unity of man and nature" gave birth to the concept of wholeness

Now, the word we say most is "harmony", which is the core idea of ??"The Book of Changes". It regards nature and society as a whole, and puts forward the idea of ??"the unity of heaven and man" and the way of heaven, earth and man, that is, "the way of establishing heaven is called yin and yang, the way of establishing earth is called softness and hardness, and the way of establishing man. It’s called benevolence and righteousness.” Infer human affairs with the way of heaven, understand nature from its development, understand nature, imitate nature, and seek methods and technologies to build a harmonious society.

Based on this idea of ??harmony, Chinese medicine puts forward the overall concept of "correspondence between nature and man". The Huangdi Neijing, the pioneering work of traditional Chinese medicine health culture, believes that human beings are products of nature and should coexist and coexist with nature and all things, and live in peace. People follow the inherent laws of change in nature, carry out diet, daily life, work and exercise, and make adjustments with changes in the four seasons of climate, geographical environment and social environment. So, if you let nature take its course and integrate with nature, you can reduce the incidence of diseases, delay aging, and prolong life. If you go against nature and destroy it, you will definitely be restricted and repaid by nature, which will cause diseases and damage the body.

The meridian health regimen of traditional Chinese medicine links the rise and fall of human organs and meridians in 12 hours, which are interlocking and very orderly; Traditional Chinese medicine diet and health maintenance and traditional Chinese medicine emotional health maintenance are also the extension and development of Confucianism and Taoism, reflecting the overall regulatory advantages of traditional Chinese medicine health maintenance. For example, children with weak spleen and stomach cannot eat more ice cream, and elderly people with poor gastrointestinal function should drink more porridge at night.

Maintain your health according to this natural law, and at the same time, pay attention to "there are times when evil and evil are evil, avoid them", that is, "keep your mind inward, and you will always be safe from illness?"
