In this circle, the spleen and stomach are yin and yang, which is the central axis, and everything revolves around it.
In other words, in this human body, the five internal organs are distributed up and down, and their functions are also directional. The movement of qi guided by these zang-fu organs is dynamic.
Let me describe this painting to you.
First of all, the kidney is at the bottom, which belongs to the water dirty. Chinese medicine says that kidney contains fire in water, water is kidney yin and fire is kidney yang. We will understand this fire. It must rise. What does it give birth to? Fire produces soil, that is to say, fire comes up to warm the spleen, so what is the spleen responsible for? It is responsible for sending nutrients absorbed by the stomach (called subtle substances in Chinese medicine) to the whole body. One feature of this spleen is that it goes up, because some nutrients go to the lungs and combine with fine substances in the inhaled air, and the lungs help transport them to the whole body.
Spleen qi rises from the left.
Where's the water in the kidney, aquatic wood? In other words, under the nourishment of water, wood gas also began to get nutrition. If it is development, its development direction is also rising. Like trees, this liver qi rises from the left. The qi of the spleen rises, and there is a saying in Chinese medicine that "the liver rises with the spleen and the gallbladder falls with the stomach", which is what it means.
Many people say that the liver of traditional Chinese medicine is on the left, but the anatomy is on the right. Traditional Chinese medicine talks about liver qi, which is the function of the liver and a functional system, not just the essence of that organ.
Therefore, the left side of the body is sick, and sometimes it is necessary to consider whether the qi of the liver and spleen rises normally, especially the liver qi.
The liver belongs to wood, and the four seasons are like spring, which symbolizes the birth of all things.
At this point, you can see that this qi machine rises to the top with the liver and spleen, and here are the lungs and heart. As we all know, the combination of wood fire and five zang-organs is the heart, and the combination of four seasons is summer. The characteristics of heart fire are actually upward, but because of the existence of lungs, heart fire is taken downward.
The lung belongs to gold, and the four seasons are in autumn, so the main body falls. It gets hotter in summer, and when it comes to autumn, the gas begins to drop. This heart fire was supposed to rise, but because there was lung gold on it, it fell down and went straight to the kidney, so that the kidney water would not be too cold and warm. Kidney water reaches the position of heart fire with liver wood, so that heart fire will not overheat. This is called "fire and water ji ji".
Sometimes, this downward process is destroyed, so the heart fire can't come down. If you hold it on it, you will see that it is hot above and cold below.
Thirst, red eyes and sore mouth, but the legs below are still cold.
When lung gold drops, what people eat in their mouth enters the stomach, and then it also drops, so the stomach qi will drop. The spleen belongs to the yin, the stomach belongs to the yang, and the yang should fall, and the yin should bear it.
When the stomach qi decreases, the gallbladder qi also decreases, which is what we call "gallbladder decreases with the stomach". At present, there are many stomach diseases, that is, stomach qi goes up and bile goes down, which is the result of retrograde qi movement.
You should also note that the decline of stomach qi and gallbladder qi comes from the right.
Therefore, if the right side of the human body is sick, it is necessary to consider whether there is trouble in the downward movement of Qi.
Now you can see that the spleen goes up to the left, the liver qi and kidney water go up, the stomach qi goes down to the right, and the gallbladder and heart fire go down. Is this a circle that goes up to the left and down to the right?
In this circle, the spleen and stomach are yin and yang, which is the central axis, and everything revolves around it.
This is Huang Yuanyu's theory. Finally, he attributed all the diseases to the abnormal operation of this circle. If something goes wrong, the movement of the circle is blocked by a "click" and it can't rotate, then there is a problem. What should I do at this time? Drugs must be used to adjust the flow of qi and make them run up and down again, so that the human body will recover itself.
I make this circle very simple, which is probably the reason. Huang Yuanyu himself elaborated more carefully, and there are many terms. You can refer to his book.
Then someone should ask, is this circle meaningful? Can you treat this disease?
I tell you, Ma Ruiting, the fifth generation descendant of Huang Yuanyu, took out a prescription called "Xia Qi Decoction" from Huang Yuanyu's book, and with a little addition and subtraction, it became a prescription for improving the medicinal properties and harmonizing the spleen and stomach. The old man has basically used this prescription for treating diseases all his life. When a patient arrives, he will adjust the prescription and add or subtract it slightly, and the patient will be fine. Look at his medical record, there are ups and downs. My feeling is that he just put the medicine on someone else and started this circle again. As a result, Ma Lao's life is "living without counting", and patients are like clouds. In particular, there were many serious blood diseases, which were really cured by him.
Since Huang Yuanyu realized the operating law of human qi-moving, the clinical effect has been getting better and better.
It will help us if so many people come to us. We can take the opportunity to observe how Mr. Huang uses this circle.
Ladies and gentlemen, whether you are a medical student or not, some situations can be explained by yourself after you understand the truth of Qi-flowing. Otherwise, someone must be strange. Why are my legs so cold, but my face is always covered with red? It's as different as ice and fire. Why?
Let's give another example. The surname Zhao is. His illness is called "breathing", which is similar to what we are talking about now. Some people may have seen this disease. Open your mouth and lift your shoulders when you are sick, and you can't breathe. Their voices are very harsh. The famous singer Teresa Teng died of this disease without taking medicine. Comrade Zhao's attack is quite characteristic, that is, it is particularly easy to commit in autumn and winter. When he began to get sick, he first started sneezing, then his nose ran, then he felt his throat blocked, and then he began to gasp.
This is too uncomfortable. I don't think you've ever felt a blocked throat. Breathing is the most normal thing for ordinary people, but it is simply beyond their reach.
what can I do? Everyone is so worried. There are many ways to put this matter on hold now. There are many spray preparations in western medicine, which can relieve throat spasm, and there are also many hormone drugs, which can save the emergency, but they are prone to dependence. You can't live on hormones in this life.
At that time, there was no western medicine at all, and Comrade Zhao simply felt desperate in life. At this time, it was said that Huang Yuanyu of Changyi was eager to learn and vowed to study medicine because of his physical disability. Since it is worth it, why don't we invite him?
So I came to Comrade Zhao's home. At this time, Huang Yuanyu has completely got rid of the sadness caused by disability, and he has recovered his confidence from the process of treating others.
Let's take a look at the diagnosis process of Huang Yuanyu!
Huang Yuanyu asked the patient, "Besides breathing, what symptoms do you have?"
Comrade Zhao said: "I always feel bloating (this is very important, I will explain it to you below), and sometimes I vomit (this is more telling), but I just want to give up."
Huang Yuanyu nodded, in fact, at this time he had fully understood, but he still asked: "How did this disease come from?"
Comrade Zhao looked at his family for a while and said, "It was an autumn in my twenties. I had dinner in the evening. A damn black cat fell from the eaves and landed on my back, which scared me. I have been ill ever since. After I played there, I was afraid to have dinner. If the cold wind blows at night, or it rains, or you eat too much during the day, you will get sick. It takes two or three days at a time, and sometimes it takes eight or nine days or twenty days. Now you have been ill for twelve years! "
Hearing this, Huang Yuanyu said, Oh, my God, it's been twelve years. This patient is really miserable. He is very sympathetic at the thought of this.
Therefore, Huang Yuanyu took pains to tell the story of this circle to the patient and his family.
The story of this circle is too important. After understanding, we can actually analyze many diseases by ourselves.
The main idea of this story told by teacher Huang is this: this asthma is a disease in which lung qi comes up, that is, lung qi does not fall. Under normal circumstances, there is a circle in our body, and this lung is at the top of the circle. Why not descend? Because the stomach qi is not falling. As we said, the spleen and stomach are the axis of the center of this circle, and the stomach qi descends from the right. If the stomach qi does not drop, then the lung qi can't drop, so it will be stuck there and become sick.
But why is this stomach unhealthy?
That's because the spleen is suffocated by water, and it doesn't rise any more, and it doesn't absorb the food accepted by the stomach (Chinese medicine believes that the stomach controls the reception and the spleen controls the absorption, and part of the function of the spleen is actually the function of the intestine). The spleen does not absorb here, so what the stomach receives from the mouth is not blocked in the stomach. The result is that I can't get down.
Why do you think Comrade Zhao has bloating? Is that the spleen and stomach are stuck there.
Why are you vomiting? This is because the stomach qi can't go down and can't go up.
Look at the reason why he is ill. When eating, he was afraid. There was a problem in the circle. When he was so scared, the food stopped in his stomach and the rotation of the circle was hindered. As a result, he fell ill. Huang Yuanyu said, "It's usually wet, and the stomach is bad for him. It's no secret to sting people in the fire. Whenever something extraordinary happens, he will move his mind and pull up the tree. " My soil was insulted by cold water, so my temper was heavy; The thief in the soil is in Jiamu, so the stomach qi goes up. "He discusses how the circle is abnormal from the aspect of mental shock, which is fundamental.
Then why do you get sick on rainy days? Because of the heavy humidity in rainy days, the temper with heavy humidity is stagnant; I get sick when I'm full. That's because the stomach gas is already stuck there. Will you give him more burden without getting sick?
Then how to treat it? Huang Yuanyu said: I will remove your moisture and make the qi in the spleen rise. I'll adjust the liver qi again to make the spleen rise faster. In this case, if I use some medicine to reduce stomach qi, won't the circle turn?
The prescription is: Poria, licorice, Pinellia ternata, dried ginger, asarum, dried tangerine peel, cassia twig and Amomum villosum.
This is a small prescription that we are all familiar with. Among them, Poria cocos removes moisture, which makes the spleen soil rise, while Glycyrrhiza uralensis is located in Zhongzhou, which supplements the spleen and stomach, and Pinellia ternata dries the dampness, which makes the stomach qi fall. As I said, these three drugs are typical axial thoughts; Dried ginger warms the spleen and kidney, because the moisture is heavy and you can't go without hot medicine. Let me tell you something about asarum. This medicine dispels cold, is violent and has certain toxicity. So there is a saying that "Asarum is not expensive", but that refers to powder. If it's a liquid medicine, there is actually no problem, but now pharmacies are absolutely not allowed to take more than three grams of medicine. The characteristic of asarum is that it can use the true qi in the kidney to drive away the cold, so it has an effect on some stubborn wind-cold headaches, coughs and asthma, but there is a problem. After using asarum, people with insufficient kidney qi are likely to need to tonify the kidney because of using kidney qi. I once prescribed a prescription for intractable cough. After using asarum, the patient recovered quickly. However, in the middle and back of the tongue, there is a coin-sized tongue coating missing, that is, there is no tongue coating in this place, which is a manifestation of kidney-qi deficiency. I immediately let the patient take Jinkui Shenqi Pill, and after a few days, the coating grew up.
The orange peel in the prescription is the qi that combs the lung meridian, which can relieve cough and reduce adverse flow; Guizhi Huang Yuanyu's statement is that the liver temperature is heavy, which makes the liver qi rise (this is Huang Yuanyu's unique experience); Amomum villosum is a drug that can strengthen the spleen and stimulate appetite. If the stomach gas is blocked by food, some Amomum villosum can immediately cheer up the stomach gas.
Moreover, Amomum villosum also warms the kidney, dries the dampness, sucks wind and tonifies the kidney, which is a good thing for multiple purposes.
The main idea of this prescription is to dredge the spleen and stomach, and there is no medicine to relieve cough. In the best case, orange peel can help. It is estimated that some comrades will ask, can such a simple prescription cure asthma without cough medicine?
Let's see what happened to Comrade Zhao after taking the medicine.
Comrade Zhao Yanwei, after taking medicine for more than a dozen times, he recovered from his illness and has never had an attack since.
So what is the truth of teacher Huang's theory? Can you cure all diseases by drawing a circle like this
In fact, Huang Yuanyu's "Middle-earth Circle" theory put it bluntly, that is, the functions of various organs of the human body are interrelated. If something goes wrong, it will affect the functions of all other organs. If we adjust from any of these links, we can make the human body move in the normal direction, and Huang Yuanyu thinks that the most important link is the spleen and stomach.
