Winter is the main collection, collection for life is – to return to the root, and the most direct way to return to the root is – sleep!

The fifteen days of the winter solstice coincide with the eleventh month of the lunar calendar, which is called the “winter month” and also called the “smooth month”.

“Chang” means that everything is asleep in winter, full and not launched. During this time, it is advisable to use every deep and full sleep to let the body accumulate and develop. Because in the waxing moon, everything is “harassed” to prepare for spring, so there is no way to sleep well.

As the saying goes, “Sleep well on the night of the winter solstice and play well on the day of the summer solstice”. The winter solstice is a big festival crossing point, we can sleep well from the day before the festival, carefully take care of the rise of a Yang. The ancient people in the winter solstice “to the day closed, business travel can not be”, this is the ancient people to take care of themselves. Nowadays, we inevitably have to leave early and return late, the only thing we can do is to sleep early.

We should at least make sure that the Hai (21 ~ 23 points) to bed, the Zi (23 ~ 1 point the next day) deep sleep, so that the Yang can enter the Yin, Yin and Yang together, so that a good sleep with a moment of a thousand gold to replenish the Qi and blood.

The winter solstice is the most important time to maintain health and protect Yang energy!

In ancient times, the winter solstice was designated as the first month of the year. Among the twelve hours of the day, the zi hour is also the time when the yang energy of the human body is first born. Since the winter solstice, the yang energy of heaven and earth begins to rise and grow stronger, representing the beginning of the next cycle, as a day of great luck. At this time, the climate is cold, people’s activities are changing from strength to weakness, from movement to stillness, which is more conducive to harboring yang energy, “the time of day and personnel day to day, the winter solstice and the birth of spring”, in this yin and yang to the time, it is a good time to maintain health!

The winter solstice is the most important time to protect yang energy, especially for chronic disease patients and the elderly and frail, most of them have insufficient yang energy and deficiency of spleen and kidney, and every time the climate is cold in winter, they are more susceptible to attack by external evil, making yang energy more deficient.

After the winter solstice, the yang energy slowly rises and the days slowly become longer, which is the key season for the transformation of yin and yang, and the best time to warm up the yang energy, so in ancient times, the winter solstice also metaphorically means the beginning of a new life, which has positive significance for the recovery of chronic diseases. In ancient times, the practice of health care attached great importance to the period of the first birth of Yang energy. It is believed that when Yang Qi is first born, it should be carefully protected and nurtured like a farmer’s seedling, so that it can gradually grow.

In other words, umbilical moxibustion can regulate the balance of yin and yang in the body by penetrating into the skin and stimulating the tissues with the pure yang heat of moxa fire, thus opening up the qi and blood, regulating the five organs, healing and strengthening the body. Navel moxibustion at the winter solstice is an effective way to replenish yang energy.
