Although some people always say that physical weakness is weak, as for the physical weakness, it is actually very particular. In addition, because each person has different physical constitutions, or if each person's physical constitution is not limited to one, in the face of thi

"When faced with the life of a couple, I started to feel a little overwhelmed. I often have the strength but not enough..."

"For middle-aged people, as they grow older, their bodies begin to decline, and they always feel that their yang energy is gradually weak."

"It's not until Spring and Autumn change seasons, the difference between them and others' clothes is very big. Others start wearing vests, but they still wear sweaters. They feel that they are very alternative, but I'm really cold!"

Have you ever had this situation in the life of a couple? In fact, there are many such situations in life. I remember in the previous article, I talked to you about Qi deficiency constitution . In fact, Qi deficiency constitution is also a kind of condition for one's own body deficiency. From the theory of health preservation in traditional Chinese medicine, generally divides our physical condition into nine categories. In addition to relatively healthy and peaceful constitution, there are eight other types of physical condition in the so-called sub-health state, namely: Yang deficiency constitution , Yin deficiency constitution , Qi deficiency constitution, phlegm and damp constitution, damp heat constitution, blood stasis constitution, special constitution , Qi depression constitution, etc. Don’t look at it here. Some people always say that physical weakness is not the case. As for the physical weakness, it is actually very particular. In addition, because everyone has different physical constitutions, or everyone’s physical constitution is not limited to one of them, in the face of this situation, you need to have a method of diagnosis first and then treatment in traditional Chinese medicine! Often, physical weakness will show differently according to changes in your life, diet and other habits. Take this opportunity to talk about what to do when faced with yang deficiency in the life of couples?

The wife of the next door neighbor Lao Qian turned into a completely different person after giving birth! Especially in terms of diet and daily life, she changed after conditioning. Let’s see how she did it.

I still remember the period after Lao Qian's wife gave birth to a child. It can be said that it left a deep impression on me. Why do I say that? First, Lao Qian gave birth to twins, both of whom were sons. This made Lao Qian very happy. When he saw everyone, he would show off to us. Sometimes we would joke to Lao Qian: "In the future, replace your Audi car with Alto , which is 200W+!" Lao Qian always laughed and said, "It doesn't matter, I'm happy even if I sell it!" After all, it's joking. In fact, Lao Qian's family's financial conditions are more than enough, which can be said to be the icing on the cake.

However, after a while, Lao Qian and his wife felt something was wrong. During the confinement period, Lao Qian took good care of her "very good". She always tried every means to fulfill her wishes when she wanted to eat, but she didn't care whether it was suitable or not. During the confinement period, her wife especially liked to eat cold foods (some pregnant women had a higher body temperature during pregnancy and always liked to eat some cold foods). From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine health, this was unhealthy for their physical fitness. She told Lao Qian several times that time, but he didn't take it much. Lao Qian always believes that his wife is the biggest now and she has to rely on whatever she wants to eat and do. Besides, she likes to eat some cold food, which has little impact on it.

As a result, the diet, work and rest of the wife of the old confinement period showed, and there were great changes. The cold food I liked to eat before became hot, and I always had no appetite for eating. When the weather was a little cold or when the seasons changed, Lao Qian's wife would be so cold that her hands and feet were so cold, and she would always feel sleepy and sleep if she had any daily routines and daily routines. It gives people a feeling of listlessness, which makes Lao Qian sleepy. After , Lao Qian found me. After I learned about the situation, I told Lao Qian that your wife has changed her physique. I will recommend some methods to you and try to raise them.

Later, after a period of adjustment, the old Qian wife finally returned to her original level.

Let me tell you my point of view: When faced with the situation of Lao Qian’s wife, let me first ask you what you think? In fact, from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine health care, this situation has a certain relationship with our living environment, diet and other habits. For this reason, I have summarized some of them with you:

. Common reasons for those with yang deficiency are as follows:

• ① You may have heard of this saying: "A fire before delivery, and a basin of ice after delivery". Generally, this situation refers to (some pregnant women generally The body is relatively hot, and I ate a lot of cold food during this period, which affects my physical condition);
• ② Some children often use some antibiotics , hormones or take too many drugs to clear heat and detoxify due to certain factors in their childhood. In addition, they usually like to drink frozen drinks, beer, herbal tea, etc.;
• ③ Couple life is uncontrollable and too frequent.
• ④ As you grow older, your yang energy gradually becomes weak;
• ⑤ Some people with yang deficiency have a certain relationship with their working environment, such as long-term contact with cold places;
• ⑥ is related to diet. If you eat too much, your daily diet will not meet the requirements, and you will lack exercise.

From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine health care, people with yang deficiency are generally similar to those with cold constitution . People with yang deficiency are mainly due to insufficient yang energy, so they are afraid of cold, which is mainly manifested as fatigue and fear of cold, especially the back and abdomen. Some serious people may even have cold hands and feet when winter or when the season changes. Such situations like hot food , sleeping more often on a daily basis, hair loss easily, sweating, fatigue, and not interested in the life of couples, etc., also occur frequently!

Before sharing with you how to regulate the yang deficiency constitution, we must first remember a principle, that is, "Warm the kidney and replenish yang, which is the source of fire."

① Remember to warm the yang to nourish yin. In this way, when regulating the yang deficiency constitution, you must also remember to warm slowly, replenish slowly, and adjust slowly;

② When warming the yang, you must remember to take into account the spleen and stomach, so that you can effectively regulate the yang deficiency constitution, but remember that there is a difference between beneficial qi and replenishing fire. In addition to warming the Yuanyang, you must remember that only when the spleen and stomach are healthy can you eat more and achieve strengthening the physical fitness.

If there is a yang deficiency constitution in the life of a couple, how should we regulate this? You can refer to several aspects.

In previous articles, I have introduced to you how to regulate people with qi deficiency. In fact, the treatment methods for people with yang deficiency and Qi deficiency are roughly the same, but they are slightly different, and they mainly start from several aspects of life.

1. Regulate mentally and emotionally

People with insufficient yang energy are often more common with a quiet and restrained personality . Sometimes they show bad emotions. is especially prone to negative emotions such as depression, sorrow, and sadness when encountering emotional troubles, environmental changes, hazy weather, and cold autumn and winter. Therefore, in the face of this situation, we must first learn to be good at regulating our emotions and emotions, and eliminate or reduce the impact of adverse emotions.

From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine health care, there is a saying in : : "Medicine supplements are not as good as food supplements, and food supplements are not as good as magic supplements." . Although it sounds a bit mysterious, it is not difficult to understand based on the traditional Chinese medicine theory of "form and spirit correspondence". The general meaning of is that the mind can control the body. In the face of this situation, you can refer to several methods.

• 1, increases outdoor exercise. When the mind is troubled, you can use physical exercise to relieve it. This is also a way to relax yourself and relieve stress, because exercise can often make us simple and upward and forget everything unhappy;
• 2, see more sunshine, appropriately increase indoor light and make the surrounding environment brighter;
• 3, When you are in a bad spirit or mood, you can choose to listen to some light and relaxed music.
• 4. You can choose to exercise abdominal breathing, so that qi sinks into Dantian , so that the yang energy dives, and the deep and slow breath is conducive to stabilizing the mind;
• 5. You can do more calming and moving exercises in such as Tai Chi , Wuqin Opera, etc.;

. Conditioning in the environment of life and work

2. Due to the special constitution, has weak ability to adapt to changes in cold and heat. Sometimes when it turns slightly cold, you will feel that it is so cold that you can't stand . Therefore, in the cold winter, you must learn to "get away from the cold and be warm", and in the spring and summer season, you must pay attention to "cultivating and replenishing yang energy".

Generally, in summer, the yang energy in our body gradually tends to the surface. If daily care is not properly done, it is easy to cause the loss of yang energy. Therefore, for people with yang deficiency, try to avoid sleeping outdoors, and do not let the electric fans and air conditioners blow directly when sleeping; if there is an air-conditioning room, be careful not to have too large temperature difference between indoor and outdoors.

For people with yang deficiency, should also pay attention to keeping warm in each joint, waist, abdomen, neck, back, and feet, especially the joints. For female friends, try not to wear clothes with shoulders, knees, navels, and waists in spring and autumn and air-conditioned rooms, and be careful not to stay up late. Staying up late will cause great harm to your own yang energy and will not be conducive to the hidden yang energy of your own.

I wonder if you have noticed that many people with yang deficiency still wear long clothes and trousers in midsummer, and even dare not go out in the middle of winter. This is actually not an exaggeration at all, and it is very necessary! Because their yang energy is weak, they should protect the heat in the body when going out. It should be noted that once sweat is discharged, they should add or reduce clothes in time to prevent excessive sweating or wind from sweating, and avoid further damage to the yang energy.

For people with yang deficiency, should have regular daily routines. You should not give up your work because of fear of cold and fear of cold. You should do physical labor appropriately, with a slight sweating and not fatigue. In addition, the bedroom where you rest daily should be on the sun and receive sunlight at noon, which will help the yang energy in the body.

3. . Conditioning in exercise and exercise

It is very important to maintain the body exercise and exercise. Because of "kinetic energy produces yang", people with yang deficiency constitution should strengthen exercise and exercise. However, due to the different physical constitutions of each person, the intensity of exercise will also vary. In the face of this situation, we must do what we can when exercising! And for sports exercises, you should be interested and convenient! Only in this way can we persevere and achieve the effect of strengthening the body.

For exercise events, it depends on your physical strength. such as yoga, walking, jogging, Tai Chi, Wuqin Opera, Baduan Jin , etc. are all good methods. You can choose according to your preferences. The focus of exercise can be used to strengthen exercises of the waist, abdomen and spine! In general, it is still the same saying " Kinetic energy produces yang" . For people with yang deficiency, it is necessary to strengthen physical exercise, but it is generally most appropriate to keep the exercise volume slightly sweating. Remember not to sweat profusely.Because people with yang deficiency are afraid of cold and are more susceptible to wind and cold. Especially when exercising, you should pay attention to keeping warm and avoiding cold. Try to choose to exercise in warm weather!

In your spare time, for people with yang deficiency, you can also do sunbathing and air bath ! This is also a better way to strengthen the body and strengthen the aphrodisiac. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine theory, "spring and summer nourishing yang, autumn and winter nourishing yin", , so people with yang deficiency should choose spring and summer for exercise time, and in the morning of the day, the best time for exercise, try to choose a constant temperature place when exercising at other times.

. Dietary conditioning

(1) Eat less or not raw, cold or frozen products: You should know that foods with obvious coldness have a greater impact on the yang deficiency constitution, mainly including iced beverages, juices, wine, fresh coconut juice, bitter melon, kelp, crabs, etc.

says that, but sometimes you still have to eat it when you should eat it, but remember this principle when eating it: First, you need a small amount; second, you can use warm food, such as when eating crabs, don’t forget to mix it with ginger and vinegar sauce, etc.; third, try not to eat vegetables with cold and dry food, it is best to stew, steam or cook it in boiling water.

(2) Reduce salt intake: Yang deficiency constitution, salt-rich diet can easily cause obesity, swelling, urination, and hypertension.

(3) People with yang deficiency can eat more warm foods:

• Fruit : lychee, durian, cherry and longan meat , chestnut, jujube, walnut, cashew , pine nuts , etc.;
• Dried fruits: the most typical of is walnuts, which can warm kidney yang, and is most suitable for people with sore waist and knees and frequent nocturnal urine;
• Vegetables: contains ginger, leeks, peppers, pumpkin, carrots, yam, soybean sprouts, etc.;
• Carnivorous has lamb, beef, chicken, etc. The mutton is gentle in nature, replenishing yang, qi and blood. When making mutton soup, you can put some angelica , wolfberry and ginger in it, which can not only nourish yang energy but also blood. People who have cold hands and feet in winter can drink Angelica ginger and mutton soup, which is a great way to nourish them.
• Aquatic products: include shrimp, eel, sea cucumber , abalone , mussel , etc.

The following focuses on several ingredients for those with deficiency:

• Lamb: itself is warm in nature and sweet in taste, and belongs to the spleen, Kidney meridian . As early as in "Compendium of Materia Medica", it was stated that "mutton has the benefits of warming the middle and replenishing deficiency, nourishing the middle and replenishing qi, promoting appetite and strengthening strength, and benefiting kidney qi." It is especially suitable for yang deficiency, especially for elderly people with weak body. It is also mentioned above that it can be paired with several side dishes that suit their taste.
• Walnut kernel: itself is sweet in taste and warm in nature. It enters the lungs, liver, and kidney meridians, helps to nourish the kidneys and helps yang, warms the lungs and stabilizes asthma, moistens the intestines and relieves bowel movements. Suitable for people with yang deficiency. But remember not to eat too much every day, just do it in moderation.
• Leek: Leek is also known as " Qiyangcao ". It tastes sweet and spicy, warm in nature, and is non-toxic. It enters the liver, stomach, and kidney meridians. Leek has the effects of nourishing the kidneys and strengthening yang, warming the middle and promoting qi, strengthening the spleen and increasing appetite, and is suitable for middle-aged and elderly people with yang deficiency and cold pain in the waist and knees and poor appetite.

. medications are regulated

Also, for people with yang deficiency constitution, in addition to food tonics and supplements, it is also very effective in this regard, but the method of medicine tonics is relatively harsh, because before applying Chinese medicine, should first be dialectical , that is, see if you are suitable for taking this medicinal material.You should know that there is an old saying that is "three parts poisonous" . This is also what I often warn everyone. Don't take it blindly when you see a certain medicinal material that has a great tonic effect. This can easily cause damage to the body, especially our liver and kidney organs. Therefore, I recommend a few of them to you. Friends who like them can refer to them, but you still need to consult a Chinese medicine practitioner for specific methods of taking them.

If you have obvious yang deficiency, food supplements or other methods have no obvious effect. At this time, you can choose and some products that nourish yang and remove cold and nourish the liver and kidneys, such as furry kidney , Cordyceps sinensis , Morinica hindrance , Epimedium , Deer antler, Psorale , mulberry parasitic, Cuscuta , cinnamon , cooked rehmannia , walnut, etc. These are very helpful for people with yang deficiency, but you should still conduct dialectics before taking them, and don’t take them blindly.

, acupuncture meridians are regulated in the meridians

From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine meridians, commonly used for yang deficiency constitution, include Ren meridian (Zhongwan, Shenque , Qihai, Guanyuan, Zhongji), Du meridian (Baihui, Mingmen ), Foot Taiyang bladder meridian (Piphishu, Shenshu , Zhiyang, Baliang), etc. For yang deficiency constitution, according to my experience, you can choose several acupoints combined applications, such as massage, acupuncture, and moxibustion.

Baihui: Take the midpoint of the line connecting the ear tips on both sides.

Shenshu: Back, under the spinous process of the second lumbar vertebra, 1.5 inches apart.

Qihai: front midline, 1.5 inches below the navel.

Guanyuan: 1.5 inches below the sea of ​​Qi, that is, 3 inches below the navel.

zusanli : lateral side of the tibia, 3 inches below the eye of the outer knee.

[Main Function] Baihui has the effect of invigorating qi and increasing yang, and Guanyuan and Qihai have the effect of cultivating the essence and strengthening the foundation and nourishing the lower abdomen. The combination of the three acupoints can not only intersect , Ren and Du meridians, , but also replenish qi and cultivate primordial energy and raise yang energy. You should know that the kidney is the foundation of the innate nature, and taking the kidney point can replenish the kidney qi; the spleen and stomach are the foundation of the acquired nature, taking the Zusanli can regulate the spleen and stomach, replenish qi and blood, and allow the acquired to nourish the innate nature. In general, these acupoints can gradually become stronger and the yang energy can be sufficient.

Summary: Today, due to busy work, I stopped updating for a day. Isn’t it the reason for the epidemic now? High-incidence areas are beginning to appear everywhere, and we are no exception here. Here I would like to remind everyone that masks cannot be taken off. Taking good protection is to protect yourself and protect your family! Well, by the way, for people with yang deficiency, don’t take this situation lightly. This is also a state of sub-health. You should also correct your bad habits in all aspects of your life. This is very helpful in alleviating the yang deficiency!
