6 phenomena to judge whether the meridians are passable; With only 1 move, dredge the meridians and eliminate all diseases
In "Lingshu Meridians", it is said: "Those who are in the meridians can decide life and death, deal with all kinds of diseases, and adjust the virtual and the real, which is indispensable."
The 12 meridians are first of all the pathways for the operation of qi and blood in the human body, and are closely related to the survival of people, the formation of diseases, as well as the health of people and the healing of diseases. If the qi and blood of the five internal organs and the twelve meridians circulate smoothly, people will not get sick.
You don't have to look at the meridians as mysterious and mysterious. The meridians are to the human body what the road is to a city or a country, and in big cities like Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, the 12 meridians are like the second ring road, the third ring road or the elevated road; Throughout China, the Twelve Orthodox are highways.
A few years ago, the snowstorm in the south and the interruption of the Beijing-Zhuhai Expressway and the Beijing-Guangzhou Railway caused obstacles to the flow of people and materials across the country, and people did not know when they would be able to return to their hometowns to reunite with their relatives. If this phenomenon is placed on the human body, if there is a problem with the meridians, it will inevitably cause abnormal functions in the body, thus endangering health.
Nowadays, most people have such and such symptoms, but some go to the hospital for examination, but the instrument cannot find it, and often the doctor will give a "sub-health" conclusion, but is this the case?
I am afraid that almost all major diseases are developed from minor diseases, and diseases quietly accumulate and change without us noticing. Traditional Chinese medicine has a understanding that the meridians, qi and blood flow smoothly, and people will not get sick; The meridians are blocked, the qi and blood are not smooth, and if you can't, it will be painful, stasis, and disease.
Judge whether the meridians are unobstructed according to the symptoms
These symptoms may not be "symptoms" for you, but our care for our body starts with "judging the subtleties". "Trial" is to discover the truth through clues, and "slight illness" is a minor illness or illness.
1. Cold
When the meridians are blocked, some parts of the body will also be cold, such as the most common ones are cold limbs, abdomen, and head, and in more serious cases, there is a feeling of cold. The "coldness" of these areas is often a sign that the meridians are blocked. Since the body temperature of a person is determined by whether the qi and blood and its delivery are normal, the body temperature will be normal when the qi and blood are vigorous and the circulation is normal. Where there is cold, where the meridians may be blocked, and it is difficult for qi and blood to reach.
Some people who have suffered a stroke and have a paralysis of the body have blocked meridians, and the healthy and unhealthy parts will have a normal body temperature on one side and a cold body on the other. By extension, there will be a difference between healthy and unhealthy parts of the sweat, with one side sweating normally and no sweating on the other.
2. Heat
When the meridians are blocked, some parts of the body will be hot and dry. This is because the heat cannot be dissipated through normal channels.
In addition to the redness, swelling, heat, and pain caused by external evils are related to the blockage of the meridians where the fever is located, individual fevers may also come from the relevant meridians.
Qi and blood run in the body over and over again, if this path is not passable, it will look for a breakthrough from the neighboring meridians, and the first thing that is easy to affect is the meridians that have a relationship between the surface and the inside or the relationship between the child and the mother, so that the meridians are hot. For example, the fever in the head is not necessarily a problem with the bladder meridian, but it may also be caused by insufficient qi and blood in the kidney meridian on the surface of it.
In addition to the feeling of heat and cold, the impact of meridian blockage on the skin surface can also be manifested as problems such as enlarged skin pores and blocked hair follicles. The blood gas is not there, the garbage in the pores cannot be discharged, the pores are blocked, and the hair follicles naturally do not grow well, which is the problem of acne, blackheads, and enlarged pores that many girls and children are concerned about.
From the location of the acne, you can see the health information.
For example, acne that grows next to the nose and under the lower eye bag (down the pupil, i.e., inside the cheekbones) has a lot to do with the stomach and intestines, and it will be reflected here if you eat bad oil. People who eat outside are prone to this, absorbing bad oil, and hoarding it in the stomach meridian.
If acne grows near the nasolabial folds, such as the left and right cheeks are located in the large intestine, it may be that bad oil is not easy to drain from the large intestine, such as constipation, premenstrual stool is not smooth, and oil cannot be excreted, which will be reflected in the relevant areas of the face.
Irregular menstrual cycles, acne at the corners of the mouth. If acne grows around the lips, the treatment is mainly based on herbs that nourish yin and reduce fire. Acne in the philtrum, around the lips and chin, which belongs to the part of the "kidney" (ovaries and uterus) mentioned in traditional Chinese medicine, is usually considered to have gynecological and vaginal discharge problems.
3. Pain
If there is a pain point on the meridian, it means that the meridian is blocked, which will affect the operation of qi and blood, and the function of the viscera will also be affected.
Last year, we talked about a small action to prevent heart disease, and the same is true. In the case of the Heart Sutra, when you raise your arms in a saluting posture, most people over the age of 40 have loose muscles hanging down in their upper arms.
Starting from the armpit, use the thumb and index finger to knead the "detached" muscle in the direction of the elbow joint, there will be a feeling of pinching cotton wool, and the fingers will rub the fat particles with pimples, and the pain will be unbearable with a little force.
People see this hanging flesh every day, but they don't know that the heart has begun to have insufficient blood supply, even if the examination report does not show any problems at this time.
4. Hemp
The pain and sadness caused by the blockage of the meridians further develops into numbness or numbness. For example, if we sit cross-legged for too long, the lower limbs will not be able to flow qi and blood, and it will be painful; Then, the meridians are blocked, the qi and blood are completely blocked, and the legs will be numb. Only by changing the sitting posture can the qi and blood flow smoothly can the consciousness be restored.
When the limb is paralyzed, it needs to cause weight. Especially for patients with high blood pressure, it is necessary to pay attention to the frequent numbness of the limbs and dredge the meridians in time, which can reduce the probability of stroke.
5. Acid
Acid indicates that the supply of qi and blood to the meridians has slowed down and cannot meet the needs of the body.
After strenuous exercise, such as a fast sprint, a person will feel sore or weak somewhere in the body, because more qi and blood supply is needed during sprinting, which exceeds the limit of normal body qi and blood supply, resulting in sour qi and blood supply.
In the case of deformity, there is a balance between cost and compensation. Therefore, health sports have never been intense exercises, but exercises that balance the supply and demand of qi and blood, such as tai chi, channeling, etc. Western medicine also highly recommends aerobic exercise, such as jogging, flexibility activities, etc.
If a certain part of the body is sour for no reason, or it is sour with a little exercise, it means that the meridians of this part are not smooth and the supply of qi and blood slows down. At this time, if you tap and massage the meridians where they are located, you may find potential symptoms such as pain, swelling, and swelling.
6. Swelling
Blockage of the meridians can be tangible, which is called swelling, which is often caused by blood stasis. To reduce swelling, it is necessary to activate blood circulation and remove stasis, which can be adjusted by scraping or cupping. The purple or dark "sha" that many people scrape out and pull out is actually blood stasis in the meridians.
At the same time, it can also be combined with acupressure massage, such as the blood sea acupoint on the inside of the knee. Simple acupoint extraction method: bend the knee and press the upper edge of the patella of the right knee with the palm of the left palm. 2-5 fingers straight up. The thumb is about 45 degrees, oblique, and under the tip of the thumb is a point.
The "blood" of the sea of blood refers to the blood of the spleen, and the "sea" refers to the blood born of the spleen meridian gathered here, and its qi and blood energy is as broad as the sea. Xuehai acupoint is located in the spleen meridian, the spleen is the main blood, with the effect of controlling the blood not to go disorderly, not to stagnate, often rubbing can improve the circulation of qi and blood, to eliminate stasis has a helpful therapeutic effect. If there is pain during the massage, it is necessary to pay attention to frequent massage to dredge it.
Of course, the blockage of the meridians can also be invisible, which is distention, which is mostly caused by qi stagnation. Flatulence is usually a "vortex" formed by qi when the meridians are not running smoothly, and a certain part of the body is swollen.
Therefore, if we can understand some basic meridian knowledge, we can also understand the condition of the body by collecting meridian signals. The role of the meridians is not only reflected in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases, but more importantly, prevention!
