The ideal sleeping time is from 9:00 PM to 3:00 AM. This is because this is the winter period of the day, when energy is stored. Without storage in winter, spring and summer will not grow.
All medicines, whether in Traditional Chinese Medicine or Western Medicine, only treat symptoms, not the root cause. This is because all illnesses are the result of incorrect causes. If the incorrect causes are not eliminated, the incorrect results will not be eradicated. The root of health lies in the mind. All things originate from the mind. A pure mind leads to a pure body. Therefore, when you become ill, don't seek external help; rely on your own repair system to heal your illness.
Right perspectives can help patients eliminate illness far more effectively than expensive medications or dangerous surgeries. With right perspectives, you will make correct decisions and behave accordingly, preventing many illnesses from occurring.
All human wisdom is not learned from books but rather arises from a sincere, pure heart, and concentration.
The maintenance of a person's health relies on the body's inherent regulatory and repair systems, not on external factors, which can only play a supporting role.
Most symptoms of illness are manifestations of the body's adjustment and elimination of waste. They are manifestations of the body's automatic adjustment and balance. Therefore, they should be treated as normal physiological phenomena, not as the cause of illness to be eliminated.
Thus, when you are sick, you should remain calm. A calm mind leads to smooth qi, and smooth qi leads to smooth blood flow. Smooth qi and blood flow eliminate all illnesses.
Human health depends on two key elements:
1. Sufficient qi and blood
2. Unobstructed meridians (including blood vessels and channels for excreting waste).
Sufficient qi and blood rely on:
1. Adequate food + bile + the necessary time (after dark to 1:40 a.m.)
2. Quality sleep (during this time, the brain is completely idle, dominated by the autonomic nervous system) + good living habits.
Unobstructed meridians require a pure mind. All emotions and desires will disrupt a pure mind, thus disrupting the normal functioning of the meridians.
Maintaining a healthy body requires both "increasing Qi and Blood" and "reducing Qi and Blood loss."
Excessive food intake not only fails to increase Qi and Blood, but also creates a waste burden in the body, which in turn requires the consumption of Qi and Blood to eliminate it. The internal organs are a Qi and Blood processing factory. Food is the raw material, and its processing capacity is limited, while the supply of food is unlimited. Therefore, the amount of food consumed must be controlled.
