What is Sha? In fact, it is discarded blood, which must be discharged!
Sha is the blood of menstruation. What is the blood of the meridians, this has to come from the yin and yang, qi and blood, meridians and so on in Chinese medicine.
The meridians are the channels that run qi and blood, and when the blood is not in the meridians, it is the blood that deviates from the meridians, and the blood that deviates from the meridians is the blood that has lost its qi, the blood that has no vitality, and the blood that has been discarded, because the physiological function of the blood has been lost.
The meridians of the human body are like rivers, and the qi and blood are like rivers, and the flowing water will form a winding river due to the height of the terrain and the softness and hardness of the terrain. With the roundabout development of the river, the flowing water continues to erode the sediment around the riverbed for a long time, bypassing the hard stones, and washing away the soft sediment, the river will become more and more curved, and the two adjacent curved river channels will continue to move closer together, forming a very narrow "isthmus".
In the vicinity of the river, there are often many lakes or ponds. There are many reasons for the formation of these lakes, such as the collapse of the earth's crust, natural erosion and accumulation, man-made construction, etc., which will form depressions on the surface of the earth, and these depressions will store water and become lakes or ponds.
If the lake or pond is small, it is relatively stable and less likely to directly damage the natural environment. However, because the water storage is too small, the circulation will be very poor or even impossible to recycle, and it will become a stagnant pool.
What happens to the backwater? We see in nature that those relatively small ponds, due to the lack of circulation, coupled with the natural sewage of people and animals, the decay of plants, sun and rain, etc., the water quality will become stinky and become a sewage pit, which will affect the natural environment.
However, the excessive water storage is like the formation of a dammed lake, which is often formed in the middle of the water flow, it will gradually become larger, and it is extremely unstable, once it collapses, it will seriously affect the natural environment, which is a bit like a blood clot in the human body, embolism to a certain extent and become a hemorrhage.
There are some phenomena in the qi and blood in the human body, which are very similar to the naturally formed lakes or ponds, which are called "the blood of the menstrual period" in traditional Chinese medicine. The so-called deviation from the meridians, is where it is piled up and no longer participates in the circulation of the meridians, that is, congestion,the causes of congestion in the "Yellow Emperor's Neijing" are mainly divided into roughly 7 categories:
1. Caused by external senses, the six evils of external senses can cause stasis, especially cold evils. If the cold evil guest is in the meridians, the blood and weeping will not pass.
2. Bruising due to trauma: Trauma is often an important factor in the occurrence of bruising. "The Soul of the Thief": "If there is a fall, the evil blood will not go away."
3. Emotional stasis: Emotional injury can cause abdominal function, yin and yang qi and blood are lost in Tiaoda, and the formation of qi and blood reversal, qi stagnation and blood stasis "Su Wen Qi Tongtian Theory" "Anger is exhausted, and blood is on the top", "internal injury is in worry...... The blood is coagulated and not dispersed...... then the blood gas condenses".
4. Bleeding and stasis: "The Origin of Lingshu White Disease" "If the stomach and intestines are injured, the blood will overflow outside the intestines, and the intestines will be cold, and the juice foam will be passed on from blood to blood, and it will be combined and condensed and will not disperse and accumulate. "Su Wen Regulating the Meridians" "If the meridians overflow, there will be blood." "Stopping bleeding from menstruation, or being visible outside the body, or remaining in the body cavity, or stagnating on the skin, no matter what kind of blood is always stagnant and stagnant. In addition, for the treatment of bleeding, the blood in the veins is often stopped due to improper hemostasis, which is also the cause of stasis.
5. Eating and drinking causes stasis: "Su Wen Five Organs Generation Theory" "If you eat too much, your pulse will condense and cry and change color." "Su Wen: The Theory of Anger and Anger" overeating, eating fat and sweetness, eating the five flavors and hurting the blood veins, affecting blood flow and causing blood congestion.
6. Caused by long-term illness: "Su Wen Bi Theory" "The illness is as deep as a long time, and the glory is astringent, and the meridians are negligent." Open. Various chronic diseases of the five organs can lead to a decrease in the function of the abdominal organs, the imbalance of yin and yang, qi and blood, and the stagnation of blood flow and the resulting congestion.
7. Congestion in old age: "Lingshuying Health Qi" points out that old people have qi and blood failure, their muscles are dry, their airways are astringent, and their blood movements are weak, which often causes congestion.
When a person is sick or unwell, it is mainly caused by qi stagnation and blood stasis, due to the obstruction of the meridians, the poor flow of qi and blood, and the imbalance of yin and yang, resulting in poor internal circulation in the body, or low circulation efficiency. Traditional Chinese medicine treatment, through traditional Chinese medicine treatment methods:acupuncture, cupping, bloodletting, scraping, moxibustion, and drug administration, lies in dredging the meridians, harmonizing the camp and health, so as to heal the body.
