Special effect weight loss, nothing more than four points, use them well, and you won't get fat when you get old!
1. There is no obesity in traditional Chinese medicine, only "phlegm and dampness"!
In fact, there is no such thing as obesity in traditional Chinese medicine, it is called phlegm dampness. How does phlegm dampness come about? It is caused by the poor function of the spleen, which is the root of phlegm and the source of phlegm.
Like a conveyor belt, the function of the spleen is to bring in useful raw materials and transport garbage out. The conveyor belt is constantly conveyed, keeping the raw materials uninterrupted, so that the back and forth work in an orderly manner to ensure the operation of the factory.
We absorb useful things into the spleen first. The spleen then transports these things to the limbs, head and various viscera, just like a logistics company, first to distribute the good things, and then transport the waste back from the body to ensure the balance of entry and exit.
The spleen is the same as the logistics company, and it will be troublesome if it is messed up. What happens if the spleen is not strong enough, the conveyor belt is soft, it is tired, and it distributes useful things and then it loses energy? Obviously, the garbage produced by the human body cannot come out, and it is still in the body. This garbage that is not discharged in time is called phlegm in traditional Chinese medicine.
2. What exactly is "phlegm dampness"?
Although phlegm is the same word as the "phlegm" of our Western medicine cough, the meaning is different. In Western medicine, phlegm refers to a kind of mucus secreted by our respiratory tract. The scope of phlegm in TCM is much larger than this, and TCM believes that phlegm is all useless things in our body that change from water, and TCM often calls phlegm turbidity.
There is a sentence that sums it up very clearly, saying that "all diseases are caused by phlegm", which means that phlegm can be found everywhere, just like water, where water can flow, it can flow. However, it can't be seen or touched, it can flow everywhere, make trouble everywhere, and accumulate a lot on the body, it becomes obesity, also called phlegm turbidity.
Let's take a closer look at the word "phlegm", which is composed of a "disease" prefix and two "fire" words, indicating that there is too much fire, which causes physical diseases. Folks often say that "fish makes fire, meat produces phlegm", which means that eating too much fish will cause excessive phlegm in the body.
Therefore, if you want to lose weight, you must exercise and drain turbidity. Turbidity refers to the dirty things in the body, excess things, such as oil, which we have to get rid of. In other words, it is necessary to restore the function of the conveyor belt, bring in useful things, and expel garbage from the body, so that the body can function normally.
3. Moxibustion these four weight loss special acupoints, you won't get fat when you get old!
So, how to strengthen the spleen? I am here to share with you a few well-summarized weight loss special effect points, which have a good effect on weight loss. In daily life, if you consciously insist on kneading or moxibustion, you can not gain weight until you are old.
1. Tianshu acupoint: the first acupoint for weight loss!
If you want to lose weight, the first thing you need to do is the first acupoint for weight loss: Tianshu acupoint. Where is the Tianshu Cave? "Heaven" is the sky, and "柩" is the hub. Where do you think about the hub of the sky? in our abdomen.
How? This has to be said from traditional Chinese medicine, which divides the chest and abdomen into heaven and earth, believing that the chest is the sky, the abdomen is the earth, and the heaven is between heaven and earth, which is regarded as the pivot group of the transformation of heaven and earth.
The Tianshu acupoint is 2 inches next to the navel, we draw a horizontal line along the navel to both sides, bend the thumb and little finger, and the other three fingers stand up side by side and place them at the position of the navel, and the intersection of the other side and the horizontal line is the Tianshu acupoint. The acupuncture points of the human body are all opposite to each other, and there is a Tianshu acupoint on each side of our navel.
Once found, rub from top to bottom with the palm root. This has two effects, one is to strengthen the spleen, and the other is to lose weight. Someone said, why can Tianshu acupoint treat obesity? The Tianshu acupoint belongs to the Zuyang Ming Stomach Meridian in the Sutra. Traditional Chinese medicine attaches great importance to the stomach and believes that the spleen and stomach are the foundation of nurture, what does it mean?
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the constitution is divided into innate and acquired. Innate means that before we are born, the quality of our constitution has been decided. After birth, what determines the constitution? It's the stomach of the card. "The brand stomach is the source of qi and blood biochemistry", you eat well, drink well, absorb well, have enough qi and blood, and only then can you get sufficient nutrition and your body can be healthy
Tianshu is next to the navel, and belongs to the stomach meridian, and often rubbing it can promote the peristalsis of the stomach and intestines and help to expel stool.
Kneading the Tianshu acupoint can promote the function of the stomach at the same time, and achieve the effect of strengthening and removing turbidity. Rubbing the Tianshu acupoint is to restore the function of this conveyor belt, which has a good effect of strengthening the spleen and invigorating qi and discharging turbidity. Therefore, friends with poor gastrointestinal movements, constipation, or poor appetite should remember the Tianshu acupoint, which is the same hub of heaven and earth.
2. Slippery meat door: the valve of phlegm turbidity!
The second weight loss effect point is called Slippery Meat Gate. Slippery is smooth, slippery; Meat is muscle; The door is the point that points into the slippery meat door. The simple understanding is where the meat slides.
When we are looking for acupoints, draw a vertical line downward at the midpoint of the nipple and the midline of the umbilicus, and then make a horizontal line horizontally at the position of 1 inch upward from the navel, and the intersection of the two lines is the sliding meat.
What does a sliding meat gate mean? As we know, the stomach is a preliminary processing machine, and after the food enters the stomach, it has to be cut, the large pieces of food are broken down, and then the coarse essence is extracted. The fine part enters the small intestine for further absorption, and the coarse part enters the large intestine and is excreted from the body. The slippery meat gate is the gateway for food to enter the small intestine from the stomach, and whether it is lubricated or not determines whether useful things can be well absorbed and utilized, and whether useless things can be smoothly excreted from the body.
As we said above, obesity in the eyes of Chinese medicine is due to excessive phlegm in the body. The biggest effect of massaging the sliding meat door is to secrete these phlegm turbidity. Therefore, moxibustion friends with phlegm-damp constitution, spleen deficiency and obesity should keep in mind the slippery meat door.
3. With pulse: if it doesn't pass, the lower abdomen will be fat!
The third weight loss effect point is the belt pulse point. There is a meridian on our body, also called the belt vein, which is around the waist, and the belt vein point is the intersection point of this meridian and the gallbladder meridian.
When everyone wears clothes, they will tie a belt to prevent their pants from sagging. The belt pulse also takes its meaning, it prevents the muscles of our lower back from relaxing. Many people will unconsciously find that there is more and more fat on their waists, women often pinch the excess meat on their waists and sigh, and men will also be troubled by their general's belly.
In fact, this is all because the restraint ability of the belt vein is poor, just like the belt is broken and you can't tighten the waist of your pants, and the fat will definitely grow. Therefore, when we lose weight, we must pay attention to the core acupuncture points on the waist side and the pulse points.
In addition to daily moxibustion, every night before going to bed, tap 30~50 circles horizontally along the belt pulse, focusing on 50~100 times on the belt pulse point, for restoring the binding ability of the belt pulse and reducing the fat in the waist and abdomen, the effect is very good!
4. Inner court: moxibustion it, reduce appetite!
The last one to introduce is the inner courtyard acupoint, which is the same as the sliding meat gate, which is the acupoint on the stomach meridian. We say that the effect of the acupoints on the stomach meridian to strengthen the stomach is definitely good. Moreover, this acupuncture point is amazing, it is an acupuncture point that automatically regulates appetite.
How?
In fact, the inner courtyard acupoint can vent fire. The appetite is large and the big reason is that the stomach is hot and the burning ability is strong. The inner courtyard acupuncture point is on the foot, and stimulating it can lead down the excessive fire qi and reduce appetite. Isn't there hope for losing weight if your appetite is reduced?
So, where is this cave? In addition to moxibustion, you can also use the heel of one foot to step on the instep of the other foot, saving time and effort.
Fourth, teach you two more tricks to get rid of visceral fat!
Two tricks to get rid of visceral fat! - Rub your belly and turn your waist on the spot!
(1) 100 laps a day!
Massage the abdomen to "drive" the fat intestines out. It has the best effect when used before going to bed and after waking up, which is called abdominal rubbing. In our abdomen at the same time there are several meridians through, dozens of acupuncture points dotted, before going to bed after waking up, empty the urine, put on loose pajamas, and then take a deep breath, calm down, palms folded, around the abdomen with a medium force massage 50~100 circles, for the level of constipation, as well as the elimination of abdominal fat, is very good.
(2) Turn your waist in situ so that the fat on your waist has no place to stand!
Another way to do this is when you are resting or watching TV at night. Stand naturally with your hands hanging down naturally; Then the legs do not move, take the waist as the center of gravity, turn the upper body to the left, turn to the limit, and restore; Then, turn to the right again.
It should be noted that, just like our moxibustion, it is necessary to gradually increase according to one's physical condition, and it cannot be achieved overnight. For example, turn 30 times on the first day and 50 times on the second day, and gradually add up until you lose belly fat.
