New Year's goods are not closed
According to the traditional Jiazi calendar, we have officially entered the Year of the Dragon and opened a new round of the four seasons!
The five elements of wood, fire, earth, gold and water, corresponding to the growth and collection of nature, will start to dredge the yang energy of the winter with the help of the time of the day, so that the yang energy can better grow + rise! The following 3 things are most suitable for these 15 days to do, or do it throughout the spring, and the body and mind will be comfortable!
Appropriate: Eat five spices, eat more vegetables and coarse grains, and bring forth the new
Don't: Big fish, big meat, big supplement, cold
The Yellow Emperor's Neijing says: "In spring and March, this is called Chen. ”
Chen, is to use the opportunity of the spring sun to vent and retreat from the old winter storage. In this season of innovation, it is especially good to take the opportunity to clean out the internal heat toxins accumulated in winter and do a big cleaning for the body.
Therefore, from today onwards, we must reduce our tonics, and we can't eat big fish and meat at every meal during the New Year, and we must control spicy and stimulating foods with heavy flavors of barbecue hot pot, so as not to aggravate the accumulation of heat in the intestines;
Eat more fiber-rich vegetables and whole grains to keep the stool smooth, and once the poop is clear, the fiery toxins can be discharged.
Eat five hardships, say goodbye to the old and welcome the new
Compendium of Materia Medica, Vegetables, Wuxin Cuisine" said: Wuxin vegetables, with onions, garlic, leeks, knotweed, artemisia, mustard and tender vegetables, miscellaneous and edible, take the meaning of welcoming the new, called the five spice plates. 」
Spicy food has the effect of diverging, circulating qi and invigorating blood, and eating five spices is intended to dispel yin and cold and emit the qi of the five internal organs. The above-mentioned 蓼 (liǎo) refers to water knotweed, which is not very easy to buy. The other five spicy vegetables are all very easy to buy, and if you have time today, you might as well make a plate to eat, and the method is very simple:
Ingredients: Appropriate amount of green onion, garlic, leeks, chrysanthemum, mustard greens, salt, sesame oil, and soy sauce.
Method: 1. Blanch the leeks, chrysanthemum and mustard greens with boiling water. (If you like to eat it raw, don't blanch it).
2. Shred the green onion, crush the garlic, and cut the leek, chrysanthemum and mustard into sections.
3. Put the dishes on a plate, sprinkle a little salt, and pour in a little sesame oil and soy sauce.
After mixing, just smelling the spicy smell can make people feel refreshed, and after taking another bite, the whole body seems to be stretched, the nasal cavity feels more transparent, and the air seems to be fresher than usual.
After the beginning of spring, you can also eat more sprouts, such as bean sprouts, leeks, garlic sprouts, onions, pea sprouts, leeks, coriander, spring bamboo shoots, etc.
In addition to sprouts, vinegar pickled ginger is also a food for nourishing the liver and protecting the liver. Eating in spring has the functions of nourishing yin and moisturizing dryness, soothing the liver and nourishing blood.
Zhongliba people believe that vinegar is directly through the liver meridian, and the liver will converge when it encounters acid, and at this time, the function of ginger to rise also enters the liver, and the hair in the harvest can enhance the qi of liver yang.
Lu Zhizheng, the first master of traditional Chinese medicine, is 100 years old, but he is still in good health, and one of his health secrets is to eat vinegar and ginger all year round.
Note: People with yin deficiency and fire who have symptoms such as physical weight loss, dry mouth, hot flashes and night sweats, five heart irritations, dizziness and tinnitus, red tongue and less moss, should not consume vinegar and ginger.
Highly recommended to eat every morning with breakfast. 7 to 9 o'clock in the morning is the time when the body's qi and blood flow into the Yangming stomach meridian. And it doesn't feel too good to have a good appetite in the morning.
I eat three slices in the morning, which is sour and enjoyable, spicy and docile. Confucius was also a lover of ginger. Zi said: Don't withdraw ginger food, don't eat more. Do not overdo anything.
Chew it, the taste of ginger and vinegar is perfectly combined, very crisp and fragrant, at the beginning in the throat, there is a hot energy, slowly smooth to the stomach, warm, particularly comfortable, moist and hot I, after eating for three days, I did not feel any signs of fire, the astringent effect of vinegar is really powerful.
Because it was so delicious, I couldn't help but eat two more pieces at night, and the divergent power converged, without too much excitement of the rising sun, and I slept peacefully at night. (However, for people with sensitive nerves, be cautious).
After eating the ginger, there will be some vinegar left, and the vinegar blessed by ginger is more appetizing, acid-friendly, and pain-relieving.
If you have chronic atrophic gastritis, severe lack of stomach acid, or eat too greasy, or have diarrhea, you can drink a little to relieve discomfort.
Ready-made vinegar-soaked ginger without additives.
Delicious ginger can make people who don't like to eat ginger fall in love with eating ginger and play a silent role in the body.
We found a lot of ** businessmen, after tasting, this vinegar pickled ginger is the most satisfied, the most impressive thing for me is no additives, conscience handmade.
No additives: acid is nourishing the liver, if you eat a lot of additives, you need to use the liver to metabolize, the liver is affected, and the gains outweigh the losses.
"The spring breeze is not as good as you", be careful that the gentle spring breeze hurts you
After the beginning of spring, the temperature has risen to a certain extent, but the cold in winter has not completely dissipated, and the spring breeze goes hand in hand with the cold, so we should pay attention to keeping warm during this time.
The Yellow Emperor's Neijing says: "Those who are injured by the wind will suffer first." When the wind evil invades the body, the first thing to hurt is the head and lungs, which can easily cause headaches, brain fever, coughing, sore throat, chapped lips, dry stools, etc.
Usually add or remove clothes at any time with the change of temperature, and do not lose too much when reducing clothes; Try to go out as much as possible when the wind is strong; Combing your hair frequently, from top to bottom, 100 times a day, can stimulate the Fengfu and Fengchi acupoints, smooth the qi and blood, and let the wind evil detour.
Appropriate: Stretch your mind and generate yang energy
Don't: Suppress emotions
Nourishing the liver is the main theme of spring, because the "hair growth" and "hair rising" of yang qi are completed by liver qi!
"Hair growth" and "hair growth" mean different, "hair growth" is to activate the yang energy of the five organs, while "hair growth" is to go up!
Our body's qi machine has a circular movement; Liver qi and spleen qi rise to the left, and stomach qi and bile qi descend to the right; If the liver qi does not rise, the gall qi does not fall, and the whole circle movement cannot be turned;
The liver belongs to wood, and the main excretion and rise of the human body, the rise of yang qi and the operation of qi and blood in the human body all depend on the "rising" effect of the liver.
Happy, it is the first to nourish the liver**!
The liver likes to be adjusted, and is most afraid of bad mood. In spring, make yourself happy as much as possible, stay away from negative energy, see more beautiful things, say more good things, encourage, motivate, and warm people;
Do more good deeds, help others or be helped by others, your heart will feel warm, this kind of positive energy, can make your yang energy rise;
However, nowadays, many friends are usually in a bad mood and under pressure, and they are easy to get angry in the spring, just because of the stagnation of liver qi. The body's qi and blood begin to go outward, which is conducive to soothing the liver and relieving depression.
Speaking of this Xiaoyaosan, it originated from the hands of the medical saint Zhang Zhongjing, and after thousands of years of adjustment by later generations, the final prescription was named in the official medicine book of the Song Dynasty "Taiping Huimin and Pharmacy Formula". Speaking of the magic of this Xiaoyaosan, it is naturally inseparable from the materials it is equipped with, as sung by the old medicine song: "Xiaoyaosan uses angelica peony, Chai Ling Shucao and ginger; Liver stagnation, blood deficiency and weak spleen, reconciling liver and spleen has excellent effect. ”
The first is Bupleurum, as the old saying goes: "Bupleurum has been a monarch since ancient times, and can make a thousand kinds of medicine ministers." According to legend, when the Eastern Han Dynasty was plagued, the medical saint Zhang Lao took Bupleurum as the main prescription to regulate the liver qi of the human body, and disperse the stagnation in it, it is said that only one dose of Bupleurum soup is drunk, and the heart will be as light as a wicker in the breeze, and the liver and gallbladder can also get a sense of pleasure.
Of course, it is not enough to just get rid of the qi in the body, if you want to be truly free, you have to add white peony to nourish the liver and blood, and then make angelica to smooth the qi in the body, and then when the qi and blood are both complete, then make the atractylodes, poria, ginger, and licorice to guard the spleen and stomach, and invigorate the yang in the spleen.
Finally, peppermint is added, so that the fragrance in the mint can go through the coke, relieve the bitterness and pain in the body, and completely release the grievances, resentment, pain, and discomfort accumulated in the lungs. By the time all these negative things are cleaned up, it will be difficult for this person to think about it.
Speaking of which, many friends may feel that even if Xiaoyaosan is so magical, the preparation has never made people so "free", and even if the effect is good, in the end, this soup recipe will still have to be eaten, and it will be bitter first, so is there a better way?
It is true that if you want to be more "leisurely", in fact, you might as well first learn about this Xiaoyao loose foot soaking bag in my home, my family's Xiaoyao loose prescription is classic, and the materials are authentic. The eight flavors used are all from natural production areas, and no pigments and flavors are added during the production process.
At the same time, in the manufacturing process, carefully listen to the guidance of famous experts in the pharmaceutical industry, and refine the real "leisure" with pure skills and natural herbs.
Imagine when you return home every day, there are always all kinds of depression and boredom in the body that are difficult to dissolve, you can boil a pot of warm water, soak a leisurely soak in the gentleness of the center of the feet, this moment you will feel that your shoulders are relaxed, and the soup under your feet has passed the effect into the body through the lower coke of the body, stop a trance, the stagnation in the liver, lungs, gallbladder and intestines in the body has dissipated, and then wipe off the soup, you can be lazy and sleepy, so there is nothing to say all night, only to startle yourself when you get up, like a healthy body and a carefree heart.

Don't: Stay up late to sleep
When the rain comes, wake up early and go to bed late". Try to go to bed before 23 o'clock and get up around 7 o'clock, which is conducive to the upswing of newborn yang energy.

When the liver blood is sufficient, the liver has less toxin, and the liver's hair growth and hair promotion function will be better!
If you usually stay up late, don't sleep well, worry about anxiety, and lack of yin and blood, you can usually eat more foods that nourish yin and nourish blood, nourish the heart and spleen, and nourish the liver and kidneys, such as:
