" Huangdi Neijing " has a conversation between Huangdi and Qibo (ancient medical master), which is worth experiencing.
Huangdi said to Qi Bo: "I heard that ancient people could live to a hundred years old and not look aging. However, contemporary people show old appearances at the age of one to fifty. Is this the similarities and differences of the times? Or is it because contemporary people did not study the way to nourish themselves?"
Qi Bo replied: "The ancient people understood the way to nourish themselves, followed the laws of yin and yang, and were in line with the principles of techniques and numbers, and had diet. Temperance, good daily habits, and do not work hard, so you have good physical shape and spirit, so you can enjoy your life to a hundred years old. But today's people are not good. They use alcohol as water, and they have to do sexual intercourse when they are drunk, indulge in sex, dissipate their vitality, and violate the rules of health care. They have no control in daily life and are greedy for temporary happiness, so they age at the age of fifty."
such an exchange between Huangdi and Qi Bo is like an academic seminar for today's people.
Qibo mentioned in the conversation that if people want to live a healthy and long life, they must live a while, respect the laws of nature and changes in the four seasons, develop good living habits, cultivate good body and spirit, live a happy life, and enjoy your whole life.
This requires sticking to the rules of daily life at times. To nourish yang in spring and summer, regulate people's growth and growth; to nourish yin in autumn and winter, to restrain and collect, store yang and vital energy, and to ensure that there is no leakage or less leakage. Specifically:
Spring health.
Spring "Heaven and earth are connected, and all things are flourishing." Go to bed late and get up early, but don’t go too early. After getting up, you should nourish your energy when the sun rises.
Grow in summer.
In summer, "the heaven and earth are connected, and all things are full of beauty." Go to bed late and get up early, accept yang energy, and do not be afraid of sweating to keep your body temperature close to nature as much as possible. Blow less air conditioning and sweat more to make the garbage in the body excrete. Otherwise, it will easily get sick when it accumulates in autumn and winter and cannot be leaked.
0 Autumn to be raised.
"The weather is fast, and the earth is bright." Autumn is a season of convergence. The weather is restless, which gives people the feeling that autumn is clear and cool, so you should go to bed early and get up early.
Winter storage.
"The water freezes the ground, and does not disturb the sun." In March of winter, all the qi that is open and discharged must be closed to avoid hiding. At this time, things like water are frozen and the earth is cracked. People should collect their yang energy and don’t disturb them. Go to bed early and get up late to avoid unnecessary dissipation. There is no need to take a bath every day for 39 days, so it is advisable to collect it. You can eat some heavy tonics in winter and drink a small amount of wine.
