The Thought of Governing the Country and Its Concrete Embodiment in Traditional Chinese Medicine Culture

Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) culture is one of the traditional cultures in China, which has rich connotation of governing the country. Traditional Chinese medicine culture emphasizes the harmony and unity between man and nature, and advocates the healthy concept of giving priority to prevention and regulating the balance between yin and yang. In governing the country, the thought of Chinese medicine culture is mainly reflected in the following aspects.

First of all, Chinese medicine emphasizes the concept of "preventing disease", that is, paying attention to the prevention and treatment of diseases. This idea can be applied to governing the country, advocating paying attention to preventive measures in national governance, strengthening the construction of public health system, enhancing people's health awareness and self-care ability, and fundamentally reducing the possibility of diseases.

Secondly, Chinese medicine pays attention to the "holistic concept", regards the human body as an organic whole, and emphasizes the relationship between man and nature and between man and society. In governing the country, we can learn from the holistic view of traditional Chinese medicine, emphasize the comprehensive management of government affairs, pay attention to the harmonious development of all aspects of society, and promote the construction of ecological civilization.

In addition, Chinese medicine emphasizes "balance adjustment". Chinese medicine believes that human health is closely related to the balance of yin and yang. In governing the country, we should also pay attention to balanced development, adhere to the coordination between economic development and environmental protection, balance the relationship between social fairness and efficiency, and balance the relationship between power and people's rights and interests.

Finally, Chinese medicine culture pays attention to "individualized" treatment methods. Traditional Chinese medicine pays more attention to different treatment methods and emphasizes individual differences. In governing the country, we should also pay attention to local conditions and implement differentiated policies to meet the diverse needs of the people.

Generally speaking, the thought of governing the country and politics contained in Chinese medicine culture mainly includes emphasizing prevention, overall concept, balance adjustment and individualization. These thoughts can provide some reference and enlightenment for national governance.
