I can talk to my internal organs

Chapter 63
If there is any group in China who knows how to keep in good health, it is undoubtedly Taoist priests.

These people spend all day studying how to live a long life with a good quality of life.

As Lu Jiu grew up, some of the health knowledge he knew came from Chinese medicine, and some came from the old man.

Before he went to college, he would visit the old man every day.

"Hehe, health preservation, let's talk about the eyes." The old man laughed.

Oh!
This is good!
In recent years, the incidence of myopia in children and adolescents in my country has soared all the way, and it has increased significantly with age.

In 2010, the "National Physique Monitoring Bulletin" made by the State Sports General Administration showed that the prevalence of myopia among elementary school students in Huaxia was 31.67%, that of junior high school students was 58.07%, and that of high school students was 76.02%.

By 2014, the Ministry of Education’s “National Student Physical Fitness and Health Survey” showed that the detection rate of poor vision among primary school students in Huaxia reached 45.71%, that of junior high school students reached 74.36%, and that of high school students reached 83.28%.

Now it's 2023, and I don't know how far the data is. Lu Jiu feels that it is only high but not low.

Behind such a terrifying myopia rate is actually a serious loss of energy.

In the theory of Chinese medicine, there are generally three situations that lead to myopia.

One is congenital myopia, which means that the internal organs are not balanced at the beginning due to insufficient life fire at birth. The second is that acquired diet and living habits cause damage to the internal organs to varying degrees, resulting in a lack of energy and spirit. The third is that organic diseases occur in organs, such as elongated eye axis.

The first type is difficult to solve, because it is a problem brought about by birth, and even top Chinese medicine doctors can't do anything about it.

The second type is a bit like the pseudo-myopia we are talking about now, which usually returns to normal after recuperating the internal organs, but many people choose to use glasses to correct it at this time, and do not realize that it is an internal problem that causes myopia.

The third type is also more troublesome, because the eyeball is damaged by excessive use of the eyes, and the internal organs will also be damaged. Therefore, the third type of myopia is difficult to be cured by traditional Chinese medicine.

Although the liver dominates the eyes, human eyes can see, and it is not only the liver that is at work.

"The Yellow Emperor's Canon of Internal Medicine" mentioned in the chapter of Lingshu Dahuolun, "The essence of the five viscera and the six internal organs are all injected into the eyes to form the essence. The essence of the nest is the eye, the essence of the bone is the pupil, the essence of the tendons is the black eye, the essence of the blood is the network, the essence of the nest is the white eye, the essence of the muscle is the restraint, and the essence of the muscles, bones, and blood is bound together to form a connection."

This sentence refers to the connection between the structure of the eyes and the five internal organs in the body. The liver governs the kernels of the eyes, the heart governs the canthus, the spleen governs the eyelids, the lungs govern the whites of the eyes, and the kidney governs the pupils.

And because the kidney is responsible for storage, the essence and blood of the whole body of the human body will be stored there, so vision impairment has the greatest relationship with it.

For example, when many people stand up suddenly after squatting for a long time, they often have the kind of dark situation in front of their eyes. This can actually be understood as a short-term loss of qi and blood, and the five internal organs and whole body qi and blood suddenly cannot be focused on.

Therefore, the decline of vision should not only depend on whether there is an organic lesion in the eyeball, which is actually very incomplete.

Nowadays, the myopia of most children has nothing to do with genetics, or even has much direct relationship with excessive use of eyes.

Like many young people who secretly go to Internet cafes to play games since they were young, and stay up all night all year round, sleep in class and go to the playground after class. When they go to college, he still has a vision of 5.0.

Why is that?
There is an old saying that goes well, the kidney governs the bone, and the shape of the bone is good for hearing and eyesight.

If you observe carefully, those children who are active and like to run around every day generally have very little myopia. Those children who stay at home all day are actually a group with a very high rate of myopia.

Going out to play every day not only makes me feel happy, but also does not accumulate emotions in the body, so the liver wood will not be blocked, and the sun outside will strengthen the kidney qi.

If the liver and kidney are well maintained, it means that the body has energy. Among the five elements, water can produce wood, and wood can produce fire. The power of water and wood is sufficient. Even if there are some minor problems in other five internal organs, it will not cause too much damage to the eyes.

Using a game as an analogy, learning is equivalent to fighting with people in the game, and going out to play is equivalent to returning to the spring to replenish the state.

You only know how to burp every day, but don't know how to make up your body, so don't you have to burp?
The game can be restarted, once the eye is injured, it will be difficult to recover.

At least Lu Jiu has never tried to treat myopia, but according to the theory of Chinese medicine, myopia is not an irreversible disease.

It's a pity that many people don't know this, and they take their children to some kind of vision correction institution. To be honest, the effect of this thing is really limited.

Instead of spending that money, it is better to take the children to play more in the sun and exercise.

It can not only relax the mind, exercise the body, but also prevent myopia, why not do it?
"Hurry up and talk, it's best to talk about what to do if the eyes are damaged!" Lu Jiu said.

The old man said with a smile, "My method is called Jiuyang Lianmu. The biggest feature of this exercise is to use the sun's yang energy to maintain eyesight. In this season, the sun will only rise around six o'clock, so you have to get up before six o'clock and make sufficient preparations to practice facing the sun."

Lu Jiu was surprised, "Facing the sun? Oh, yes, the rising sun is not dazzling."

Lu Jiu practiced the Eight Parts Vajra Kung Fu all the year round, and he was very familiar with the morning sun, but he didn't realize it for a while.

After all, it has become a mindset that the eyes cannot look directly at the sun.

The old man stood up with a smile, and demonstrated while explaining, "When you are ready, find an open place, rub your palms together to warm them up, then apply them to your eyes, and use your own Qi to complete the eye-catching action. After you finish, stand still, close your eyes and pronounce the hei formula nine times, then rub your palms upside down on your lower back again, with your fingertips facing each other, with your thumbs facing down, and look up at the sun."

Lu Jiu looked at it for a while, then simply put little bald aside, got up and followed suit.

"After gazing at the sun, the eyes start to stick to the upper eye socket and turn left 36 times, then turn right 36 times, and then use the panning method, from left to right 36 times, from top to bottom 36 times, the speed should not be too fast, try to slow down, here is still panning, but the direction should be from upper left to lower right, and then from upper right to lower left. After each 36 times, stare at the sun for 3 minutes."

"The moving part is over, and the next part is the quiet part. Here we need to close our eyes for two to three minutes, and then concentrate our thoughts on the palm of our hand. This is halfway done. After that, we need to find a green plant, which can be a tree or grass, and use it to replace the sun. Repeat the steps of eye movement above. After finishing here, we have to rub our palms against our ears up and down nine times. Finally, we need to collect our power by rubbing our palms to warm up.

"This is the whole Nine Suns Refinement, you can do it once or twice a day, and don't do it after the sun is dazzling."

Lu Jiu just tried it for a while, and tears began to flow from his eyes, "Old man, my eyes are so sore from practicing this exercise, it feels like my eyeballs are going to be squeezed out."

The old man laughed loudly, "Just get used to it."

Under the twilight, the old man's eyes couldn't see a trace of white, and the ink-like eyeballs glowed with bright black light.

"Then can you practice when there is no sun?" Lu Jiu asked.

"Of course, just because the sun is covered by clouds doesn't mean it doesn't come out." The old man said.

"Okay, I'll go back and do my research." Lu Jiu picked up the little bald man and said goodbye to the old man.

The old man smiled and waved, watching Lu Jiu leave.

Lu Jiu knew the old man's routine, but this man really worked from sunrise to sunset.

As for the Nine Suns Refinement he taught just now, no matter whether it is useful or not, practice it first, it can improve eyesight the best, if not, it is nothing more than a waste of half an hour.

Some people can spend a whole day and night playing with their mobile phones, how about half an hour?
Those who say they don't have time are nothing more than lazy!
