Bad emotions bring harm to health

"Suwen·Four Qi Regulates the Spirit" says that if the sage does not treat the disease, he will not be ill, and if he does not treat it, he will be disordered but not disordered. It is not too late to treat the disease after it has been established, and to cure it after the disorder has occurred. It is like drilling a well when you are thirsty, or casting a cone in a fight. The cautionary sayings of our ancestors have sounded the alarm for people in terms of disease prevention.

Hao Wanshan said that currently, due to the influence of various factors, the number of people with sub-healthy conditions is on the rise. In fact, sub-health is a state of low physiological function and low psychological adaptability between health and disease. The specific manifestations are diverse, such as easy fatigue, back pain, poor sleep, loss of appetite, and uncomfortable defecation.

Lack of energy, psychological fragility, sentimentality, anxiety, nervousness, irritability, resentment, dissatisfaction, menstrual disorders, low fever, swollen lymph nodes, etc. Sub-health is not only the prelude to many diseases, but also a sign of aging. The World Health Organization regards sub-health as the number one killer of human health in the 21st century.

"If people in a sub-healthy state do not pay attention to emotional self-regulation, they will gradually develop into diseases. We must not take it lightly." And what impact do emotions have on health? Hao Wanshan said that bad emotions directly lead to Qi disorder. Ancient Chinese doctors concluded: "Anger makes the Qi rise, and anger hurts the liver. Happiness makes the Qi slow down, happiness makes the Qi sad.

Thinking makes the Qi stagnate, and thinking hurts the spleen. Sadness makes the Qi disappear, and sadness hurts the lungs. Fear If the Qi is low, it may damage the kidneys. "Abnormal emotions and emotions will interfere with and inhibit the body's self-regulation function, leading to physiological dysfunction and various diseases. Such as some psychosomatic diseases such as high blood pressure, hyperlipidemia, arteriosclerosis, coronary heart disease, etc.

For example, he gave the example of a female patient who suffered from alopecia areata due to a night of insomnia due to divorce and property disputes. A girl suffered from mental stress and severe skin disease due to her mother's harsh demands. An old man with high blood pressure suddenly saw his little daughter, whom he had not seen for many days, and he was so happy that he died suddenly. These are all related to emotions and emotions.

Pay attention to cultivating psychological balance

"In order to avoid the various harms caused by bad emotions to health, we must master some methods to ensure physical health." Hao Wanshan said that the human body is innate There is an automatic optimization and adjustment function (referred to as the self-adjusting function). Methods to liberate self-regulatory functions include psychological balance adjustment methods, moral cultivation, and mind cultivation. The former includes catharsis method, transfer method, reasoning method, using emotion to overcome emotion method, changing concept method, etc.

The latter pays attention to their own moral cultivation. "Su Wen" says: If there is tranquility and emptiness, the true energy will flow from it; if the spirit is kept within, the illness will always be safe? Confucius believed: A great virtue will live long. Sun Simiao pointed out: Since one's nature is good, all kinds of internal and external diseases will not occur, and there will be no cause for disasters and disasters. This is the great sutra of "health preservation". Therefore, people must be kind and accumulate virtue. They must not only do good deeds and accumulate virtue, but also cultivate virtue through words. They must not stir up trouble, do not use words to hurt others, and do not use words to harm others.

Forgetting both things and myself, the mind and energy are both calm

To liberate the self-regulation function, there is also the method of inaction, which is to be in a state of forgetting both things and myself, and the mind and energy are calm; to abide by the law means to abide by the law within the body. Objects may be kept outside the body; the method of swallowing fluids is to knock teeth, stir up the sea, swallow fluids; silently recite words and syntax, etc. He emphasized that all the above methods must be sustained and trained for a long time to be effective.

At the same time, in daily life and work, people should follow the three principles of "relaxation, concentration, and pleasure" and often achieve the four joys, that is, helping others, being content with what they have, enjoying themselves, and finding no joy. Enjoy it to better regulate yourself and achieve healthy goals.

Chinese medicine conditioning stimulates potential

Hao Wanshan told people that Chinese medicine’s methods of promoting and stimulating self-regulating functions are also helpful for health. This method uses various stimulation methods to stimulate, promote, and promote the body's automatic regulation function by improving blood circulation in the skin and promoting the movement of meridians, thus regulating the body and mind and protecting health. Such as tapping, rubbing, scraping, cupping, massage and conditioning along the meridians, spine straightening, massage, acupuncture, "312" meridian exercise method, dressing, acupuncture, moxibustion, thread embedding, cutting, bloodletting, exercise, and diet therapy , drug adjustment, etc.
