What should I do if I have insufficient yang? Four moves and methods teach you to replenish Yang Qi

Yangqi is the driving force of material metabolism and physiological function of the human body. All human activities need to consume Yangqi. As the saying goes, "people live in one breath", this breath is Yangqi. According to traditional Chinese medicine, the growth and rejuvenation of people are dominated by yang; The generation of blood essence and body fluid is all transformed by Yang Qi.

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the Qi of the human body fills the whole body, which is divided into five Qi, namely, vitality, zong Qi, ying Qi, wei Qi, and zhong Qi, collectively known as yang Qi. For example, Yang Qi stored in the kidney is vital energy. It is often said that "vital energy is seriously damaged", which means that Yang Qi is damaged. With the increase of age, Yang Qi is getting less and less, and diseases are getting more and more. So how to replenish Yang Qi?

1. The simplest: bask in the sun

The simplest way to keep the sun is to bask in the sun. It is best to sit in the sun and backlight, because there is a meridian on the back that can not be ignored - the governor meridian.

Generally, the best time to bask in the sun is between 10 and 11 am, when the sun is abundant and the light is soft. The best effect is to bask in the sun. The length of time spent in the sun can vary from person to person. Young and middle-aged people can spend 1-2 hours each time, while the elderly can spend about 30 minutes in the sun. Don't bask in the sun through the glass, it is difficult to achieve the desired effect.

4. Most comfortable: bubble feet

Foot soaking can not only keep warm, but also promote the circulation of qi and blood in the whole body. It can adjust the body's yin and yang qi and blood by stimulating dozens of acupoints on the foot.

The best way to protect the kidney is to soak your feet at 9 pm. The reason why we choose this time to tonify the kidney is that the kidney meridian Qi and blood are weak at this time. At this time, the feet will be soaked. After the body heat increases, the blood vessels in the body will expand, which is conducive to promoting blood circulation in the body.
