In the ancient theory of Chinese medicine, qi and blood are regarded as the two cornerstones that support the vital activities of the human body. Among them, "qi" is an invisible energy that warms our body and promotes the circulation of blood in the body; "Blood" is the nutrient solution flowing in the meridians, nourishing our internal organs and stimulating spiritual vitality. Good rest is essential to maintain the health and vitality of life, as it promotes the production and recovery of qi and blood. However, in our daily lives, some habits that seem harmless or even give people a sense of relaxation may actually be quietly draining our qi and blood. Here are five common but easily overlooked behaviors that consume qi and blood.
First, catch up on dramas while eating. In the fast-paced life, many people choose to use their meal time to catch up with their beloved TV series, as a way to get short-term spiritual comfort. However, TCM believes that one should concentrate on enjoying the taste and nutrients of the food without distractions when eating, so as to facilitate the absorption and transformation of qi and blood. On the contrary, distraction from changes in the plot may not only lead to excessive eating and impaired digestion, but also affect the normal production of qi and blood.
Second, work or study in the same position for a long time. Whether you sit at your desk for a long time, or bow your head and indulge in your mobile phone, these gestures will block the blood circulation of the body, which in turn will affect the circulation of qi and blood. In the long run, all parts of the body will not get enough qi and blood**, and symptoms such as fatigue and fatigue will appear.
Third, over-indulge in short**. Although these fast food cultures can quickly meet people's needs for information and entertainment, staring at a screen for long periods of time not only harms the eyesight, but also affects the mind. Traditional Chinese medicine pays attention to the unity of the mind and spirit, and the heart is the main blood. In the long run, this kind of distracting attention and over-stimulating visual content will consume the mind and indirectly lead to the loss of qi and blood.
Fourth, think about something over and over again. When we can't let go of certain memories of the past or worries about the future, our minds will be constantly pulled, resulting in poor flow of qi and blood. Not only can this make people feel tired, but it can also lead to insomnia, anxiety and other problems, which can further deplete the body's qi and blood.
Fifth, stay up late for a long time. In the dead of night, it should be the best time for the body to enter a state of rest and self-repair and adjustment, but staying up late disrupts this natural law, resulting in the inability of the viscera to be fully cultivated, and the qi and blood cannot be effectively restored. People who stay up late for a long time often have a dull face and lack of energy, which is the external manifestation of lack of qi and blood.
With the ever-increasing pace of modern life, people are always looking for ways to relax and unwind, but we must be wary of behaviors that seem harmless but are actually harmful. Traditional Chinese medicine reminds us that if we want to be full of qi and blood and maintain a healthy physical and mental state, we must pay attention to our daily habits, avoid the above-mentioned behaviors that consume qi and blood, and arrange work and rest reasonably, so that the body and mind can be truly relaxed and recovered. Only in this way can we have a healthier, more vibrant life. @动态 Official account
