Three strokes of old Chinese help you sleep

Core Tip: Why do people sleep? In simple terms, there are three reasons: First, the heart and kidney do not pay, the second is blood deficiency, and the third is stomach disharmony. Today, Xiao Bian teaches you three strokes of old Chinese medicine recommended treatment of insomnia, to help you sleep a night.

According to traditional Chinese medicine, people's body surface has air running, like the guardian at the periphery of the human body, the famous guardian gas, and the guardian's breath is solid and yang. It is constantly transported and walked on the human body surface. During the day, the line of health is in the yang of the human body, and at night it is in the shade and it is in the yin. As soon as yang comes into the genitals, people want to sleep. When the Wei Qi walks in the Yin Jing, the moment he leaves the Yin Jing, the person will wake up. This is the explanation of sleep mechanism in traditional Chinese medicine. Why do people get insomnia? In simple terms, there are three reasons: First, the heart and kidney do not pay, the second is blood deficiency, and the third is stomach disharmony.

Interpretation of insomnia by an old Chinese doctor 1. The heart and kidneys fail to pay If a person's heart is on fire and kidney water descends, a heart-kidney separation image is formed. The heart-kidney separation causes people to fall asleep at night and is particularly tired during the day. The legs are heavy. Insomnia caused by failure of heart and kidney is more difficult to treat. In the past, a few doses of Suanzaoren soup, or warm bile soup, will cure it. However, these medicines are not yet effective. Because people's life is much more complicated than in ancient times, many people's insomnia is related to long-term staying up late.

Every night from 11 pm to 1 am, it is time for the gallbladder to sleep. When people do not sleep at this time, they will slowly appear to be in a state of insomnia, causing insomnia.

Second, blood deficiency can also cause insomnia. There is a saying in Chinese medicine, called the middle focus is the gas, Zhong Jiao is our spleen and stomach. Where does human blood come from? In fact, blood comes from the stomach. The body digests food through the stomach and converts the essence of food into blood. Blood is an energy that represents a kind of kinetic energy and loses its way to the human body.

We often refer to the problem of blood supplementation. If we understand Chinese medicine, we know that blood comes from the stomach. Therefore, it is not necessarily useful to eat a lot of so-called blood supplements. The best way is to eat well. The main stomach blood, so the stomach will cause blood deficiency, in order to supplement the blood we must protect our stomach. Insufficient blood, if not effectively lost in the brain, the brain will cause insomnia due to ischemia.

Third, if the stomach is not and restless, if you eat too much at night, it can also cause insomnia. People breathe a breath, and qi is used to sleep. It is also used to digest food. If you eat too much at night, the air will be blocked by the middle coke, yang can not be lost in the brain, causing insomnia.

In ancient China, health care paid no attention to food. It was to eat only two meals a day. At nine or ten o'clock in the morning, it was served at four or five o'clock in the afternoon and it was no longer eating at night. The rules of life are also sunrise and sunset, so people rarely sleep.

We also need to master a principle for eating dinner. And it is best to go for a walk after dinner, or do some other exercise, which is very good for improving the quality of sleep at night.

Three strokes to help you sleep one night, before bedtime, peace of mind, Chinese medicine believes that the foot is the beginning and ending points of the important meridians such as the foot three Yin and the foot Sanyang, and is also distributed in the soles of the organs are closely related to the organs Nearly 70 acupuncture points and reaction areas, with hot feet, stimulate these reaction areas, it can play a role in adjusting the function of organs and enhance physical fitness.

Drowsy feeling. While soaking the feet, if you are supplemented by a massage at Yongquan (about 1/3 of the center of the forefoot), the effect on insomnia can be further enhanced. Because Yongquan Point also has the effect of evacuation, sedation, tranquilization, and lowering blood pressure.

When taking a foot massage, you should pay attention to:

1, bathing time should not be too long, up to half an hour, especially for the elderly. Half an hour before and after meals should not soak the feet, otherwise it will affect the blood supply to the stomach, impeding the digestion and absorption of nutrients. It is best to drink a glass of water before soaking, which is beneficial to the metabolism and the supplement of body fluids.

2, the water temperature should not be too high, generally 30-40 degrees Celsius is appropriate.

3, it is best to use a flat-bottomed wooden barrel with a certain height, so that the water depth is submerged to the calf.

4. You can massage Yongquan at the same time as you soak your feet. You can also massage yourself after soaking.

5, if you add some vinegar in hot water (100-150 ml), the better.

Chinese medicine believes that the brain is the home of souls, so it should also pay attention to blood supply to the head. In leisure time such as resting or watching TV, we can comb the scalp several times with one hand. The direction begins with the forehead's hairline and ends along the hairline from the scalp to the neck. In this way, the five fingers can divide the head of the Governor Vessel, the bladder meridians, and the gallbladder meridians to achieve sedation and calming the nerves and calming the liver.

According to the attribution of the meridians, you can use the thumb to rub the following points: Neiguan, Shenmen, Sanyinjiao. The Neiguan point is located in the palm of your hand. The horizontal line of the wrist is 2 inches (the same as the body width, ie the width of each person's own thumb is 1 inch, the same below), between the long palm spasm and the flexor carpi ulnaris. The Shenmen point is located on the palm of the palm of the hand, and the radial side of the ulnar carpi tendon is depressed. Sanyinjiao is on the inner side of the lower leg.

Nutritional analysis: millet, also known as corn, is sweet and salty and cool. Li Shizhen said in the "Compendium of Materia Medica," that millet "congee porridge food Yidan, make-up damage, open the stomach." Its function lies in "spleen, stomach, and sleep." Modern medicine believes that the degree of drowsiness after a meal is often related to the content of tryptophan in the food protein. Tryptophan can cause brain cells to secrete a sleepy serotonin, 5-hydroxytryptamine, which can temporarily inhibit brain thinking and cause people to feel drowsy. The more this substance is secreted by the nerve cells of the brain, the more difficult it is for people. The content of tryptophan in millet is the highest in all cereals. It contains 202 mg of tryptophan per hundred grams of food, which is unmatched by other cereals. In addition, millet is rich in easily digestible starch, can make people feel full after eating, can promote the secretion of human insulin, and further increase the amount of tryptophan in the brain.
