How to cultivate one's emotions in summer? Huangdi's classic "Four Qi Tunes the Spirit" points out that it is necessary to "make people's emotions not angry" and "let people's anger vent".
First, ambition is not anger but power.
"Make your mind angry", that is, a person should not suppress himself emotionally, just like sweating in summer. In hot summer, people should calm down and avoid getting angry because of emotional excitement. Chinese medicine believes that the heart governs the gods and is the official of the monarch. The "heart" in Chinese medicine not only refers to the heart, but also includes the function of the brain nervous system. It is important to pay attention to mental health, nourish the heart first and adjust the mood. In summer, the hot summer heat often makes people irritable and harmful to physical and mental health. Therefore, it is extremely important to keep an indifferent and quiet mind for summer health. Be calm, broad-minded, calm down, avoid internal fires, and achieve "peace of mind is naturally cool."
Second, let the gas out.
In summer, we should pay attention to the conditioning of the mind, be clear-headed, broad-minded and full of energy. Just like flowers in bud need sunshine, they have a strong interest in external things and cultivate an optimistic and outgoing personality, which is conducive to the ventilation of Qi. Ji Kang, a famous ancient health preserving family, said, "It's hot in summer, so it's better to calm down and it's often like ice and snow." This paper points out the summer health preservation method of "keeping a cool head and being cool naturally". In the summer when everything is thriving, you should have a wide range of hobbies and take part in some meaningful entertainment activities in your spare time, such as playing chess, swimming and poker. If you have the conditions, you can also participate in summer camps, tours, summer vacations and other activities, which not only makes people relaxed and happy, but also can exercise.
