Liver Qi stagnation is one of the diseases most common to female friends. In fact, this is caused by the accumulation of anger over time, common menstrual irregularities, breast tenderness, chest tightness, rib pain on both sides of the chest and other problems, all because the liver has been damaged a lot, and the turbidity in the body has accumulated over time and cannot be excreted. Here are four ways to relieve liver depression.
Exercise conditioning 1 . Press and knead the Yintang, Jizhong acupoint, and Taichong acupoint Press and knead the Yintang acupoint (forehead, between the two eyebrows), the Jizhong acupoint (the middle of the two chests), and the Taichong acupoint (the foot, the depression between the first metatarsals) 200 times a day, once in the morning and evening, which can play a good role in soothing the liver and regulating qi, and the turbidity and exhaust gas are all discharged. 2 Knock ten fingers Female friends who have knots in their hearts suggest that they can usually tap more ten fingers, because the ten fingers are connected to the heart, and there are many acupuncture points on the ten fingers, which are relaxed and soothed, and the heart is relieved. In a relaxed state, listen to beautiful music and tap the table with your hands and ten fingers rhythmically. If you repeat this repeatedly, the knot in your heart will naturally unravel and eventually be forgotten. 3 Push the feet, push through the liver meridian, and push the ribs Traditional Chinese medicine says that the liver is mainly drained, and the liver qi is cleared, and all the veins are connected, but the liver qi is most easily affected by emotions, and it is easy to form liver depression when unhappy, and once the liver qi is stagnant, it will be even more unhappy. Through the liver meridian, the emphasis is on a push word. Push the foot: first the left foot and then the right foot, from the instep of the foot along the seam to the direction of the toes, with a little force, so that it has a sore feeling, 50 times for each foot. Push the Liver Meridian: When pushing the Liver Meridian, sit down, bend the left leg first, lay the knee flat, let the palms of both hands fold and press on the inside of the root of the left thigh, and push forward to the knee with a little force, first left and then right, 50 times each, it is better to feel pain (if there is no pain, the theory of Chinese medicine believes that "the general is not painful", indicating that the liver meridian is smooth). You can push it through clothes, or you can apply some emollient oil to the skin and push it directly, so the effect is better. Note: 1. It is best not to push the liver meridian after 11 o'clock in the evening. According to the meridian flow, the liver and gallbladder meridians are in a state of rest after 11 o'clock in the evening. 2. It is not recommended to push the liver meridian in the latter part of women's menstruation. Because according to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, the liver mainly stores blood, and pushing the liver meridian at this time is easy to cause reactions such as increased menstrual bleeding and prolonged menstruation. Push the ribs: Make fists with both hands, bend the elbows, and clamp the ribs with a little force on the elbow joints, and then do the action of straightening and bending the arms, so that the upper arms repeatedly rub fully on the ribs until they are hot. Routine and rest conditioning It is very important to have a good routine and rest habits, because a good sleep allows every mechanism of the body to be able to recuperate, which is very good. Most of the body's self-repair activities are carried out before 3 o'clock in the morning, so the quality of sleep during the period of 23 o'clock ~ 3 o'clock is particularly crucial. Emotional conditioning The cultivation of a good mood is very important, and a large part of the reason for liver qi stagnation is because some negative emotions are often generated, so it is very important to regulate one's mentality and maintain a comfortable and happy mood. Diet Patients with liver qi stagnation eat more foods that soothe the liver and regulate qi, reduce liver fire, and strengthen the spleen and qi, such as pumpkin, oranges, lentils, sorghum rice, barley and other foods that strengthen the spleen and qi; goldenrod, rape, loofah, hawthorn and other foods that reduce liver fire; Foods that soothe the liver such as chrysanthemum, radish, grapefruit, and tomatoes. Symptoms of liver qi stagnation 1. Insomnia, manifested as difficulty falling asleep, even if you fall asleep, you are prone to dreams. Poor sleep quality makes the woman lose her blood and blood, her skin is rough, and her face is dull. Among them, liver depression and fire insomnia are mostly caused by irritation and liver injury. 2. Depression and anxiety caused by stagnation often lead to headaches, irritability, mood swings and irritability, chest and flank distension, abdominal distension, and endocrine disorders. 3. The liver meridian runs in both flanks, and the poor operation of the liver meridian may also lead to the occurrence of breast hyperplasia, breast nodules and even breast cancer. 4. Liver qi stagnation is unfavorable to the qi machine, and it will also make people not want to eat and drink, because the metabolism is slow, the limbs are weak, lazy and inactive, which causes obesity, constipation and other problems. 5. Whether a woman's menstruation is normal or not is closely related to whether the liver's excretion function is normal or not, and women's liver qi stagnation can lead to short menstruation, low menstrual flow, intermenstrual bleeding, menstrual dizziness, and menstrual sleeplessness.
