Heaven and man correspond to each other and follow nature" is the guiding principle of traditional Chinese health care, how do you understand the idea?

The holistic concept of "Heaven and man correspond to each other" is the guiding principle of Chinese medicine. The human body is both an organic whole and inextricably linked to the external environment. Nature is the foundation on which everything lives and the source of human life. The Spiritual Pivot - The Theory of the Dew of the Years says, "Man is in harmony with heaven and earth, and corresponds to the sun and the moon." Su Wen - six sections of the theory of hiding the elephant, said: "the sky to eat people with five gas, the earth to eat people with five flavors. The ...... gas and the birth, the fluids and liquids, God is self-generated." This shows that people are endowed with heaven and earth and yin and yang gas and birth, and nature is closely connected, nature not only provides nutrition, water, air, sunlight, etc., to meet the needs of human metabolism, and at the same time, all kinds of changes in nature, whether it is the four seasons of the climate, day and night, morning and evening, or the operation of the sun and the moon, the geography and the environment, but also directly or indirectly affect the human body, so that the human body accordingly appeared in a variety of different physiological or pathological reflections. The human body will be affected directly or indirectly by the four seasons of climate, day and night, morning and evening, or the operation of the sun and moon. Such as the "Spiritual Pivot - Viscera" said: "the five organs, so the reference to heaven and earth, vice yin and yang, and even the four seasons, the five sections of the person also." Explain that the human body growth and aging of the whole life process, is the five viscera function of the physiological process of change, the human body not only has a function of the five viscera with each other, but also with the changes in the natural world to maintain coordination and unity.  Therefore, according to the theory of heaven and man accordingly, people must master the law of change of nature, and follow the changes in the movement of the natural world to carry out the care and regulation, and heaven and earth and yin and yang to maintain a coordinated and balanced, so that it can be beneficial to the health of the body and mind. The Spiritual Pivot - this God" said: "the wisdom of the health also, must follow the four seasons and suitable for the cold and heat, and happiness and anger and peace of mind, section of the yin and yang and adjust the rigidity and flexibility. If this is the case, the evils will not come, and you will live a long life and see a long time." Su Wen - four qi and God's Great Theory" said: "The four seasons of yin and yang, the fundamental of all things. So the sage spring and summer Yang, fall and winter Yin, in order to from its roots, so with all things sinking and floating in the door of growth." Require people where the spiritual activities, living and working, eating and drinking five flavors, etc., should be in line with the changes in nature, to make appropriate adjustments. Such as the four seasons of the year, spring temperature, summer heat, autumn cool, winter cold change, everything with the spring, summer growth, autumn harvest, winter changes, the operation of the body's qi and blood will also have a corresponding change. Su Wen - eight corrections on the theory of God said: "the day warm day bright, then the human blood Nao liquid and Wei gas floating, so the blood is easy to diarrhea, the gas is easy to line; day cold day Yin, then the human blood condensed sobbing and Wei gas sinking." Description of the spring and summer temperatures hot, yang gas venting, gas and blood activity tends to the table, running more smoothly; autumn and winter climate cold, yang gas collection, gas and blood activity tends to the inside, running more stagnant. Therefore, in the spring and landscape, wind and sunshine of the season, the person's spirit is happy, vitality is more vigorous; and in the winter and winter months, gloomy weather, people tend to be mentally unstable, depressed, or the body has a sense of discomfort. According to this law of nature, traditional Chinese medicine health science put forward "spring and summer Yang, autumn and winter Yin" theory, advocating the vigorous growth of everything in the spring and summer seasons, people have to follow the trend of yang qi venting, get up earlier to the outdoor activities, walking in the fresh air, stretching the body, so that the yang qi is more abundant. Autumn and winter climate turns cool, the wind is strong and fast, yin convergence, people must pay attention to cold and warmth, appropriate adjustment of work and rest time, to avoid the killing of the gas, so that the yin essence hidden in the inner, yang gas will not be leaked. This according to the four seasons of the climate and the reasoning of the yin and yang, is the specific embodiment of the principle of natural health care, according to the sky and man.
