Learning Chinese medicine is a life discipline

Learning Chinese medicine is a life discipline

In the eyes of a true TCM practitioner, there is no such concept as “disease”, there are only the various disharmonies or imbalances that exist within each person’s body, and the doctor and the patient’s efforts are directed at adjusting these disharmonies and imbalances.

The real cure is not the old Chinese doctor sitting across the table, not the needle he uses, not his massage technique, not the bowl of soup we drink, but ourselves.

All kinds of external treatment techniques or herbal tonics, in essence, is actually a stimulating mechanism, which stimulates the operation of the body’s qi, allowing the body to complete the process of healing and repairing itself. The human body has a very strong ability to repair itself, without this ability, all doctors can not play a role in healing.

Sun Simiao, the king of medicine, did not prescribe medicine, but looked at the patient’s state of life at this stage, whether he was energetic or lost, and dealt with him according to the different states; then he asked the patient about his diet, various kinds of food, drink, sleep, and see what bad habits the patient had, and guided him to establish a healthy rhythm and habits; if these two tricks were not done, he gave the patient some food therapy methods, and if not, he gave the patient some food therapy methods. If these two tricks don’t work, he will give the patient some food therapy, then massage guide, then needles, and finally tonics. Medicine is the last resort.

Disease is a phenomenon, this phenomenon is not a single condition, but a variety of conditions arise. When a doctor treats a disease, he is actually trying to increase or decrease the conditions, and the phenomenon will be changed.

By learning Chinese medicine, we can better understand the world and things, “everything is negative yin but holds yang”, and at the same time, we can see the two opposite sides of things, and we can see the changes and exchanges between the two sides, and we are not bound to one side, which is the main principle of learning Chinese medicine.

When you encounter a good thing, you know that “blessings are the cause of disasters”, so you will not be too complacent; when you encounter a bad thing, you know that “disasters are the cause of blessings”, so you will not be deeply affected. When you have mastered both sides of a thing, you will have freedom, and you will be able to experience the state of “calmness in every big event”.

By learning Chinese medicine, we can live our life in accordance with the rhythm of nature, and live a more quality life, so that our mind can enter a state of relaxation and freedom, and we can deal with the world with more and more ease, without being suffocated.

May the people have knowledge of TCM and hope the country has a system for TCM. On the road to revival, we shout and witness together!
