I have a friend who has been suffering from early awakening for many years, and woke up at 3 or 4 o'clock in the morning. After learning that kneading the "big fish" was effective, he tried to insist on kneading the big fish, and he really cured the problem of waking up early.
When kneading the "big fish", it is necessary to knead until it is not sore or painful before it can be cured. In addition, we should insist on kneading the big fish every day, not fishing for three days and drying the net for two days, no matter how good the medical skills are, it is difficult to produce good results if you don't take it seriously.
How do you explain this principle?
The big fish acupuncture point is actually a node. Everyone has a little bit of a physical problem, like a fly, flying around the house, it's annoying, but it doesn't interfere too much with your life.
When fighting this fly, using a gun may not be effective at all. To deal with flies, you must have a fly swatter, and a sharp tool can hit the vital point.
The big fish is this "fly swatter", which is a node dedicated to treating early awakening, and specializes in fighting the "fly" of "early awakening".
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that early awakening is generally caused by lung fire. If you often wake up around 3 a.m., your heart and lungs are on fire. And the two meridians of the heart and lungs pass through the big fish, so the fire of the heart and lungs can be removed.
The front of the human palm is the base of the thumb, down to the heel of the palm, and the obvious protrusion when the palm is extended, which is medically called the thenar of the macroichthyne. The thenar muscles are abundant, and they are clearly protruding when the palm is extended, occupying a large area of the palm. The thenar is closely related to the respiratory organs. Rubbing the acupuncture points every day is beneficial to the prevention and treatment of colds, and it also treats symptoms such as sore throat, sneezing, runny nose, nasal congestion, and cough.
The method is simple: rub your hands together until they are hot.
One hand is fixed, and the other hand is turned into a large fish, like rubbing peanut rice skin, alternating between the two hands up and down.
Rub the two large thenar in opposite directions, about 2~3 minutes, and the whole palm will be hot. This can promote blood circulation and strengthen the body's metabolism, so it can enhance physical fitness, prevent colds, sore throat, and treat stomach problems.
This method is also strange, you can sleep enough at once by moving your toes
In addition, sleep is a process in which yin rises and yang falls, and the heart and kidney intersect. There are many thoughts before going to bed, and the yang energy is concentrated in the head, and it is natural that you can't fall asleep if the yin does not rise and the yang does not fall. Focus on your toes and follow the GIF below to practice this movement.
Before going to bed, lie on your back with your legs straight, your heels close to the bed, and your toes hooked up as much as possible so that the soles of your feet and calves are at 90 degrees.
With your arms straight and palms facing down, you will feel sleepy after 10 minutes of rest. If you still don't feel sleepy, do it again after five minutes, and usually you can fall asleep after doing it twice. The key to the action is to focus on the toes, so that the qi and blood will also be guided downward, which can not only help you sleep, but also help regulate the problem of cold hands and feet
