What should we pay attention to in health care during the Beginning of Summer?Traditional Chinese medicine believes that people should adapt to the changes in the weather at the turn of spring and summer and pay special attention to the heart. The heart is a yang organ and controls yang energy. The heart's yang energy can promote blood circulation and maintain human life activities. The heart's yang and heat energy not only maintains its own physiological functions, but also has a warming effect on the entire body. The body's water metabolism, sweat regulation, etc. are inseparable from the important role of heart yang. After the beginning of summer, the weather turns hot. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that "heat can easily damage the qi" and "heat can easily enter the heart." Therefore, at this time of year, people should pay attention to mental conditioning and strengthen the care of the heart. Especially the elderly should consciously adjust their mental health, maintain a clear mind and a happy mood, and avoid extreme sadness or joy, so as not to hurt the heart, body and mind."Suwen - The Great Treatise on the Four Qi and Regulating the Spirit" says: "The three months of summer are called the time of abundance and beauty; the qi of heaven and earth interact, and all things blossom and bear fruit." The three summer months refer to the period from the beginning of summer to before the beginning of autumn, including the six solar terms: the beginning of summer, the grain fullness, the grain in ear, the summer solstice, the lesser heat, and the greater heat. The Beginning of Summer and Grain Full are around the fourth month of the lunar calendar, which is called Mengxia (the beginning of summer). The weather is getting warmer and plants are flourishing. This season is beneficial to the physiological activities of the heart, so people should follow the flow when the solar terms intersect. Therefore, we should pay special attention to the care of the heart during the whole summer health care. "On the Origin and Development of Medicine" says: "The heart is the master of the body, and all organs and bones obey the heart, so it is the monarch. The heart stores the spirit, so it is used for the spirit." In traditional Chinese medicine literature, the heart is explained as the heart of flesh and blood and the heart of the spirit. The heart of flesh and blood refers to the physical heart; the divine heart refers to the function of receiving and reflecting external things, and carrying out activities such as consciousness, thinking, and emotions. The "Introduction to Medicine" says: "The heart of flesh and blood is shaped like an unopened lotus, located below the lungs and above the liver. The heart of the spirit... dominates everything, and is empty and clear." |
