?[Insomnia Prescription] Traditional Chinese Medicine Lecture Notes 2
? From the dialogue between Liang Dong and Ni Haixia
? Insomnia is divided into two categories:
? 1. Mental insomnia, such as caused by work pressure, brain Couldn't stop at all. For this type of non-morbid condition, it is recommended not to drink coffee or tea after 7 or 8 pm. It is best to develop the habit of meditating. It is good to meditate for 15 minutes, 20 minutes or 30 minutes. The purpose is to train the mind to focus. Generally, you will sleep well after meditating.
Methods: Many, here are a few.
A. Counting: You can count from 1 to 10 in a loop.
B: Concentrate your heart between the eyebrows, or breathe into the Dantian
C: Light a small candle, watch the candle, and adjust your breathing slowly. The thinner and longer the ears are, the harder it is to hear. It is better to breathe.
Solve insomnia caused by work pressure. As a doctor, you must ask the patient what is the cause of his insomnia?
2. Pathological insomnia: deficiency syndrome and actual syndrome
? A. Deficiency syndrome: The heart hides the spirit, and the spirit is hidden in the center of the heart. There is always a drop of blood hidden in the center of the heart, and new blood replaces the old drop of blood. Just like a physical pendulum, new blood comes in and the old blood is kicked out. There is always a drop of blood in the heart, and God is hidden in this drop of blood. If the blood escapes, God will not be hiding here, and it will be difficult to sleep at night. This drop of blood is always there when you are calm.
How did this drop of blood escape?
For example: one day when your wife comes home, your son is naughty and hiding behind the door. As soon as the mother opens the door, the son suddenly jumps out and says "Ah!" and suddenly scares the mother. The son thinks it is funny, but the result is My mother was frightened. The moment she was frightened, the drop of her blood ran away instantly.
There are many reasons for being frightened, such as a car accident, etc.
After this drop of blood slides over, the middle will always be empty, and the drop of blood that hides the spirit will disappear. Originally, the normal situation was that new blood replaced the old blood and was renewed according to its own rhythm. Now this drop of blood is no longer there, and God cannot hide here. At this time we need to use some medicine. For example, use coptis donkey hide gelatin soup.
Coptis chinensis and donkey-hide gelatin soup: Coptis chinensis? Scutellaria baicalensis? White peony root? Donkey-hide gelatin? Chicken yellow
? ① Coptis liane and skullcap: bitter in mouth, filling the heart. Use Coptis chinensis and Scutellaria baicalensis to strengthen the heart. If the fire in the heart is not enough, we add firewood (coptis chinensis and skullcap) to increase the fire.
②White peony: Guizhi and white peony have different medicinal properties. "Huangdi Neijing" says that the radiance of Xin and Gan is yang, and Guizhi is the emanation of Xin and Gan. White peony root is sour, bitter and astringent. Guizhi increases arterial circulation, and white peony root increases venous circulation.
So in this recipe, we don’t use Guizhier, but white peony root, to speed up the body’s blood returning to the heart through the veins, so that a large amount of blood will return to the heart. After returning to the heart, we use donkey hide gelatin to replenish it. Although the blood returns to the heart, our blood does not increase, so we use donkey hide gelatin to make the body produce more blood. How do you set this blood to replenish the heart? We want this drop of blood to return to the center of the heart. At this time, we need a guidance soup that can guide the emperor and his ministers. Just like a person is lost and needs someone to guide her. Among our food, there is one thing that is always suspended in the air, which is chicken yolk, also known as egg yolk.
So when this recipe is boiled, add skullcap, coptis, and white peony root. After boiling, add donkey hide gelatin to dissolve. When the medicinal soup becomes warm, add egg yolk, only egg yolk. When it's too hot, adding egg yolk will turn it into egg drop soup, so you have to wait until the soup becomes warm before adding it in. After drinking this decoction, the blood can be suspended in the middle. After one dose of this medicine, the patient can sleep peacefully at night because God has returned to the heart. God must have a place to stay. When this drop of blood is absent, God has no place to go. If you prescribe a lot of blood-replenishing medicines but do not add chicken jelly, the blood will not return to the heart.
Many people don’t use chicken roe because they think their cholesterol is high. I have seen many cancer patients, including liver cancer, breast cancer, etc., and the patients who came here had very low cholesterol. There was a breast cancer patient. Everything was normal, but her cholesterol was very low. People with high total cholesterol do not have cancer. Low cholesterol will not cause heart disease, but too low cholesterol may cause cancer. ?
? Why are people with high cholesterol less likely to get cancer?
? The American Cancer Center conducted a research report on more than 7,000 case studies and found that people with low cholesterol tend to get cancer.
Ni Haixia also discovered this problem in his career. When we use traditional Chinese medicine to diagnose, we generally use the eight cardinal principles of syndrome differentiation, but they say they use the eight cardinal principles to treat syndromes. In fact, they only use the six cardinal principles of exterior and interior, deficiency and excess, cold and heat, and do not use yin and yang. The highest guiding principle of traditional Chinese medicine (diagnosis and medication rules) is yin and yang.
Sorry, very few people in mainland China understand yin and yang. For many years, I have used the yin and yang diagnostic method. There is yin and excess in the patient's body. When he first had cancer, I immediately detected it. I am probably the only person in the United States who can find a Chinese medicine practitioner to do a health check-up on a patient, and Americans are also willing to see me for a health check-up before testing.
? How to check? The yin and yang check method is a very fast way. We have six health standards. There are no standards for our scale diseases in traditional Chinese medicine. In fact, they do exist, but people don’t understand them and they are not clear about them. Our diagnostics are very precise, but this part is very specialized.
? Because I understand the dialectics of yin and yang, I can immediately tell if the patient has a syndrome of yin excess. When I check a patient's medical record, I check it from beginning to end. No matter how I check a patient with high cholesterol, there will be no signs of yin and excess. Through years of accumulated experience, I know that there is nothing wrong with having high cholesterol. . Western medicine says that high cholesterol can cause heart disease. In fact, there are many causes of heart disease. You cannot say that high cholesterol can cause heart disease. This will mislead others. If a person only pays attention to cholesterol and does not pay attention to other factors, it is easy to die from other reasons. So when you are a doctor, you must speak correctly.
? There are four situations that can lead to heart disease. A. Insomnia; B. Long-term chest pain, pain reaching the back, persistent chest pain; C. Cold hands and feet, tingling; D: Irregular stool. The occurrence of any one or two of the above items is a precursor to heart disease and a reminder of heart problems.
? Why does high cholesterol not cause cancer? According to traditional Chinese medicine, the heart is the organ of the monarch and is not susceptible to disease. If a person has heart disease, it is definitely not caused by your parents, unless your mother took western medicine when she was pregnant with you. Most of them are caused by eating a lot of antibiotics, overusing antibiotics, or using some vaccines to damage the heart. The heart itself is not diseased and its service life is more than 100 years.
In the early stages of heart disease, the feet are cold because the feet are the farthest place from the heart. When the heart function is good, it will force the blood to the ends of the toes, so your feet will be warm. When there is a heart problem, the person's strength cannot pump blood to the extremities of the limbs, and the hands and feet will become cold. This is the primary phenomenon of heart disease.
? The heart is the official organ of the monarch, why is it not susceptible to disease? We have all heard of brain cancer, liver cancer, and kidney cancer, but never of heart cancer. Because the heart is always hot, cancer cells cannot survive there. When you have a heart problem, you cannot conduct the heat from the heart to the extremities, and your body will gradually cool down, and some parts of your body will become colder. Will produce vaginal tumors. When the heart is in good condition, the limbs, hands and feet are all warm, and there will be no cancer in the body. People with high cholesterol have thicker blood and strong heart beats. The vitality of the heart will be stronger in the peripheral parts, and cholesterol People with high heart strength are stronger, so that the body will not produce Yin deficiency. But the cholesterol cannot be said to be very high. In clinical practice, I have seen that patients with high cholesterol between 207 and 214 are the best and have no cancer at all. If the cholesterol drops to 200 or below, even breast cancer and liver cancer will have very low cholesterol. I'm talking about total cholesterol, good and bad cholesterol added together. Cancer patients are basically like this, their cholesterol is over 100.
Eggs are high in cholesterol, but if you want to be in good health, you should eat more egg yolks. But don’t overdo anything, usually only eat two at most.
Traditional Chinese medicine says that God has run away. What is the logic of this?
? Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the liver stores the soul, the lungs store the soul, and the heart stores the spirit. These all belong to the will and spiritual level. Using Shen means that the mind can think, think about things, think, reason, and have the ability to solve problems. You can engineer, you can do math, you can research, you can invent new things, and it all depends on our God. When there is no spirit in the heart, there is no place to stick to it, and people will easily degenerate. In addition to insomnia, they will not be able to concentrate and their thinking ability will not be strong.
? The lungs hide the soul, and the soul is the white ghost, which means seeing ghosts during the day. It means that everything you see is suspicious, and this means that the soul is not in the lungs. People who really have no lung problems are very quiet.
? The liver stores the soul. If the liver has problems, the soul will wander around, such as 1:00~3:00. The liver hides the soul. If you take too many Western medicines, the soul will not be able to stay in the liver. Because your space is occupied by the toxicity of the medicine, the soul will not be able to stay and sleepwalk.
? B. Real disease, cancer patients cannot sleep, it has nothing to do with hard work. People can fall asleep because the soul and spirit can return to the organs. As for cancer patients, the strength of the heart is squeezed. If yang does not enter yin, tumors will grow in the body. For example, if a tumor grows in the liver, the normal liver metabolizes toxins and then the blood will enter the heart. But after a tumor develops in the liver, its ability to detoxify is not strong. At this time, the blood is poisonous and you cannot sleep. Liver bleeding occurs from 1 to 3 o'clock in the evening. People with liver problems, such as those with liver cancer, have had liver cancer since two years ago. At first, for the past two years, you couldn't sleep between 1:00 and 3:00 every night, but you didn't know it was liver disease.
? Some people have insomnia due to insufficient blood in other organs to support the mind. For example, due to liver problems, liver blood cannot flow back. When it comes to meridian flow, our body has its biological clock. This will affect the process of human qi and blood circulation. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that qi and blood circulate for 12 hours and enter 12 internal organs.
Our qi and blood flow has its earthly branch formula:
Fei Yin Damao Wei Chen Palace: Lung Kai Yin hour, the large intestine opens at Mao hour, and the stomach opens at Chen hour.
The spleen has already opened and the heart has not opened at noon: the spleen has opened at noon time, the heart has opened at noon time, and the small intestine has not opened at the right time.
Shen Shi You kidney pericardium garrison: Shen Shi opens the bladder, You Shi opens the kidney, and gushes the pericardium.
Haijiaozi opens the gallbladder and Chougan liver: Haijiao opens the third burner, Zishi opens the gallbladder, and Chouzi opens the liver.
This is a cycle of the human body. Looking at it in a scientific way, assuming it exists and we verify it, you will find that lung cancer patients have woken up on time between three and five o'clock in the past two years. Traditional Chinese medicine will trace your lung cancer back to the earliest stage. At this time, you will know that you have a problem with your lungs. At this time, we have to take action. This is called Shanggong to treat the disease before it occurs. There are many ways to start, such as the Rong point. Our Rong point is specially calibrated for time. For example, if a patient cannot sleep from 3 to 5 o'clock in the morning, we can use acupuncture to prick the Rong point of the lung meridian, which is the Yuji point. If it is from 1:00 to 3:00 o'clock on the Liver Meridian, we will prick the Xingjian acupoint of the Rong point on the Liver Meridian. This acupoint is the second acupoint of the 5 Shu points. This is the initial stage, and acupuncture can solve it. If you wake up from one to three o'clock every day, Yin Shi is forming at this time. At the beginning, when the patient's physical strength is very good, we will use tough medicine to clean out the toxins and Yin Shi inside. We will remove his toxins or After the tumor is removed, he can sleep well, which means that the tumor or toxins have been eliminated.
? So, if the theory of Chinese medicine is correct, he could not sleep from 1 to 3 o'clock originally, but after taking your medicine, he can fall asleep from 1 to 3 o'clock. He can sleep this symptom This proves that his illness was cured by Chinese medicine.
If you are diagnosed with liver cancer, you will not be able to sleep from 1 to 3 o'clock. If you go for an operation, you will not be able to sleep from 1 to 3 o'clock after the operation, and you will not be able to sleep from 3 to 5 o'clock. You will know that your disease has metastasized to the lungs.
If we encounter the third type of insomnia, we will determine what is wrong. For example, a patient with gallstones will have bile pain starting around 12:00 a.m. every day. They will roll on the bed in pain and call the emergency department.
There are three types of insomnia: mental factors, deficiency of the heart, and deficiency of viscera. Therefore, 1/3 of insomnia patients do not need treatment.
? (Personal supplement: ① Eat too much at night, the spleen and stomach are not harmonious, and the stomach qi is too strong, and people are easily excited and unable to fall asleep; ② Using mobile phones, the radiation of mobile phones affects people and makes it difficult to fall asleep. Therefore, to ensure a sound sleep, do not use your mobile phone one hour in advance. You can play soft music, read a book, and sit quietly. To prepare for efficient sleep quality, it is best to go to bed at 9:30 p.m. to nourish the liver and blood; ③ Use Kusha Therapy or national second-level medical equipment, the Daotong instrument can regulate the heart meridian, pericardial meridian or three meridians and one meridians, and can also regulate insomnia. The details vary from person to person.
