The upper body is afraid of heat, and the lower body is very afraid of cold, in the final analysis, it is not possible to get through!

Recently, many friends left messages in the background: the upper body is always afraid of heat, but the lower body is afraid of cold, and they can't do without socks in summer, what is the problem? What to do?


In fact, this is what we often call the problem of hot and cold.


There are also many people in life who fall into this embarrassing situation and want to know if they belong to the hot and cold? Let's see if you have any of the following symptoms:


Symptoms of upper heat and lower cold

If you have both the above-mentioned symptoms of upper heat and some symptoms of lower cold, then you are likely to also belong to the upper heat and lower cold constitution, why does your body have this phenomenon?


The cause of the upper heat and lower cold



Everything has yin and yang, the human body is a whole, and the coordination of the rise and fall of yin and yang in the human body is the basis for maintaining the normal operation of human life.


However, if there is blockage in the middle of the coke, it will lead to the dereliction of duty in the rise and fall of yin and yang in the body, and the yin and yang can not go up and down and circulate around the body, and there will be a situation where the yang heat is on the top and the yin is cold on the bottom, just as the "Theory of the Origin and Syndrome of Diseases" says: Yang Qi and the upper are hot, and the Yin Qi is lower and cold, which will cause the upper heat and the lower cold.


In the final analysis, the lack of central focus and poor circulation of qi and blood is the root cause of heat and cold.




What is a medium focal block?



First of all, we must know that the human trunk corresponds to the three cokes, the upper coke is the heart and lungs, the middle coke corresponds to the spleen and stomach, and the lower coke corresponds to the kidneys, bladder, and large and small intestines.


In traditional Chinese medicine, the heart is the fire of the five elements, which means that the fire of the heart is relatively large, and the kidney is water in the five elements, the heart fire falls, and the kidney water rises to form a closed loop, the heart fire relieves the cold of the lower limbs, and the kidney water regulates the fire of the upper limbs to achieve a peaceful state.


In this way, it is easy to understand that the middle focus is not through, that is, the heart fire of the upper focus cannot come down, and the kidney water of the lower focus cannot go.




If the heart fire wants to come down, it must pass through the main road of the middle coke spleen and stomach, and if the kidney water wants to go up, it must also pass through the main road of the middle coke spleen and stomach, so opening up the middle coke fortress is the top priority to regulate the upper heat and lower cold.


What should I do if the medium focus is not through?



There are two purposes for adjusting the spleen and stomach: one is to make the spleen and stomach rise and fall normally (to solve the "qi machine blockage"), and the other is to remove the dampness of the middle coke (to solve the "medium coke damp resistance").


At this time, moxibustion comes into play: on the one hand, it can regulate the spleen and stomach to smooth the qi; On the other hand, it can replenish yang qi to remove dampness.


In this way, the upper, middle and lower coke will be connected in one go, and the "traffic jam" of the body will be solved.


Generally speaking, moxibustion can be used to moxibustion spleen Yu, stomach Yu, middle belly, Zusanli, Taibai and other acupoints, spleen qi deficiency, moxibustion can be added; The spleen is damp and heavy, and moxibustion can be added to Yinling Spring, Fenglong, and Jiexi.
It should be noted that people with no central focus are very likely to get angry after moxibustion, and it is recommended to use the following two methods to solve it.


01, ignition and return to the origin


This is the method that most people are accustomed to, mainly through moxibustion and the acupuncture points on the legs to ignite the fire, commonly used are Zusanli, Yinling Spring, Sanyinjiao, Yongquan and so on.


Among them, the spring should be placed at the end of the moxibustion and indispensable, so as to completely complete the process of "igniting the fire and returning to the source".


In addition, it is recommended to soak your feet in hot water before moxibustion, so that the legs are warm, the meridians are cleared, and the scorched fire will come down. Rubbing your back while soaking your feet gives you a better effect.


02 Heavy moxibustion Guan Yuan


The rise and fall of yin and yang in the human body has its fixed law, if the vitality is sufficient, yin and yang will run regularly, the rise will rise, and the fall will fall.


The Guan Yuan is the gateway to the closed storage of the Qi of the Yuan Yin and Yuan Yang, and the moxibustion can replenish the Yuan Qi, so that the True Yuan can restore the function of "hiding but not leaking", and take the initiative to recover the heat scattered outside, and the symptoms of fire will gradually disappear.


At this time, if Guan Yuan and Zhongguan can be moxibustion together, the upper and lower linkages will be better.


Medium focus can also be adjusted like this:



1. Rub your abdomen


When the symptoms of "fire on fire and cold on the bottom" appear, in addition to moxibustion, you can also rub the abdomen, especially the abdominal block point, which is also to dredge the middle focus.


The abdomen is the softest part of the body, and you can usually rub your stomach more before going to sleep. In particular, lymph can metabolize unnecessary water in the body, and rubbing the stomach more can dredge the lymph, and the stomach will slowly become softer.


Traditional Chinese medicine masters often say: "The stomach is as soft as cotton, and all diseases are not entangled", which means that Zhongjiao is passed.


Some people will burp and fart when they rub their stomachs, but in fact, the clear qi rises and the turbidity falls, indicating that the medium coke gas machine is passed.


How to do it:


Fold your hands together, with your palms attached to your navel (the man's left hand is below, the woman's right hand is below), and the hands are stacked together and rub the lower abdomen with the heel of the palm, or with your fists.


Start from the upper part of the navel and move in a circular motion from the left → bottom → the right → in a clockwise direction with the navel as the center, kneading 72 times. Then rub it counterclockwise 72 times.


The number of turns around the umbilical cord can be more or less, and the number of clockwise and counterclockwise turns is roughly equal.


Note: Use with caution in pregnant women and menstruating women.


2. Hold Tianli Sanjiao with both hands


The "two hands support the three cokes of the heavens" in the Baduan brocade, which can effectively comb the three cokes of the human body, smooth the qi and blood of the whole body, speed up the movement of various viscera, and reduce fatigue.



Both hands support the three cokes of heaven


Preparatory position: Stand upright, arms naturally down, eyes ahead.


Here's how:


Slowly raise the arms from both sides of the body, and when they reach the top of the head, hold the ten fingers crossed, palms down, and look upward; Tilt your head back, turn your palms upwards, lift your elbows up, and raise your heels up about 1 inch from the ground. The palms are turned downward, the ten fingers are released, and the arms are slowly lowered from the left and right sides, and the heels are still raised; Slowly drop your heels and return to your ready position.


Although the method seems simple, if you stick to it, you will have unexpected results!
