In spring and March, the meridians are blocked! Open up an acupuncture point and unblock the qi of the whole body!
Nourish the liver in spring, heart in summer, lungs in autumn, and kidneys in winter


Spring and March (the first month, February and March of the lunar calendar) is the time when all things germinate, and it is also a great opportunity to nourish the five organs of the body.


Spring is wood in the five elements, and the liver in the five organs is also woody, so spring health should conform to the characteristics of yang energy, and take liver nourishment as the priority.


Traditional Chinese medicine says: The liver is the general of the body, and it focuses on two major things in the body.


1. The liver mainly stores blood

"The Yellow Emperor's Neijing" cloud: "The liver hides blood, it must be done, and when people move, the blood is transported in the scriptures." When people are still, the blood returns to the liver. That is to say, where the body needs it, the liver will send blood in time.



2. Liver main drainage

Its task is to keep the body's qi unblocked, so that the body's qi is unobstructed without stagnation.

When the liver qi and blood are abundant, the liver qi is soft and smooth, and the whole body can be unimpeded, the complexion is ruddy and shiny, the eyes are watery, and the nails are flexible and bright.

On the contrary, the blood stagnates on the face, the complexion is blue, dull, melasma, the forehead is prone to acne, and the eyes are yellow and dry.

Tips for nourishing your liver in spring

The spring diet should be chosen according to the individual's physique.


For healthy people, the spring diet should be light and not overly dry, spicy food.

At the same time, because the rise of yang energy at this time is easy to hurt yin, it is necessary to pay special attention to nourishing yin, and you can choose lily, yam, lotus seeds, wolfberries and other foods.

People who are particularly weak can consume supplements such as sea cucumber and cordyceps sinensis in moderation.

Special recommendation: an acupuncture point to unblock the qi of the whole body

In the broad and profound health culture, there is an acupuncture point like a sweeping monk with unique skills, although it does not show mountain dew, but it hides profound skills.

It is the shoulder well that sits on our shoulders. This point is located just above the nipple and at the junction of the shoulder line, which is very easy to find.


Why does the shoulder well have such a reputation?

This starts with the Zu Shao Yang Sutra to which it belongs.

If we take a closer look at the meridian acupoint map, we will find that the Zu Shao Yang gallbladder meridian is a very long meridian that extends from the feet to the head, and the parts involved are very extensive. This means that the Zushao Yang Bile Meridian is a very important meridian in our human body.


So, what is the impact of the problem with the foot and less yang gallbladder meridian?

In a word: the gallbladder meridian is blocked, and the whole body is blocked.

First, joint flexion and extension are unfavorable. The biliary meridians are located throughout the vital joints of the body. The stagnation of qi and blood in the bile meridian will make the neck, shoulders, hips and other large joints appear soreness and weakness.

Second, there is a pain in the ribs. Hepatobiliary homology. If the bile meridian is blocked, the liver meridian will be affected. If the liver qi is not loose, it will inevitably cause the two ribs to swell, and the patient may even have symptoms such as bitterness in the mouth and dry throat.

Third, multiple breast diseases. The bile meridian is blocked, which directly affects the growth of the body's qi. Poor qi and liver meridians are usually affected, which can lead to breast diseases.

Fourth, susceptibility to high blood pressure. The bile meridian is blocked, and the qi is depressed for a long time and the heat is dissipated, which is transmitted to the liver meridian, forming hyperactivity of the liver yang, thereby inducing hypertension.


Fifth, reduce immunity. The gallbladder meridian qi machine germinates at midnight. At this time, a yang is born. One life is two, two is three, and three can give birth to all things. If there is a problem with the qi and blood of the gallbladder meridian, it cannot well generate yang qi at midnight, which will affect the body's righteous qi and form a low immunity over time.

Sixth, irritability, insomnia, mouth ulcers and other symptoms of irritability. How clear the gall is, how clear the brain is. The courage of the Lord decides. When there is a problem with the qi and blood of the gallbladder meridian, it affects the nourishment of the qi of the pure yang to the head, and symptoms such as fire and dizziness will appear.


All in all, as the meridian of the main discharge, the gallbladder meridian is closely related to many aspects of the body. Therefore, it is very important for us to make the gallbladder meridian unblocked. Here, we have to talk about the shoulder well.

The function of the shoulder well acupoint is to regulate the bile meridian qi and blood with a posture of one or two thousand catties.

In this regard, it is well said in "Juvenile Iron Mirror": "The shoulder well point is Daguanjin, pinch this to open the blood and qi, and pinch it everywhere, so as not to worry about the blood and blood."

"Huiyuan Acupuncture and Moxibustion" says it better: "Those who shoulder wells rush out of the obvious place where the yang qi in the shoulder is clear, and pass through the five organs, push the blood congestion, and give birth to the qi of the green yang, like a spring gushing out, to calm the meridians, to strengthen the viscera, and open the yin orifice." The rice spoon bone of the shoulder, and the big tendon, the shoulder bone, the neck bone, between the four bones, such as the shape of the well, so it is called the shoulder well. ”

To put it simply, kneading and stimulating the shoulder well points can make the pure yang qi of the gallbladder meridian gush out like spring water, and then cleanse the stagnant qi and blood, so that the whole body can be discharged smoothly and smoothly. Remind you that it is like a lid of human qi and blood, and when you lift it, the depressed qi will be relieved.



Therefore: massaging the shoulder well acupoint every day is a very good means of health preservation.
People who usually operate a computer and cause shoulder and neck pain can rub it,
people with breast hyperplasia can rub it,
people who often sulk can rub
it,
people with low immunity can rub it, and
people who don't sleep well and always get angry can rub
it
People with high blood pressure can rub it.

Only you can realize the beauty of it.
Note: The shoulder well point can be kneaded, and non-professionals should not be acupuncture. Each kneading should be coordinated with even breathing, the body should sit upright, the mind is free of distractions, and each kneading should be pressed 36 times, which can be operated many times a day.
