People with high levels of anger are prone to thyroid disease
I have previously treated a 20-year-old girl who had thyroid disease. We all know that the probability of girls getting thyroid tumors is quite high now, why? Because of the strong fire.
We Chinese like to talk about anger. What is Qi? In fact, qi is an energy trend. Why do you say that? We all know that the human body is composed of cells, which are made up of molecules arranged and combined by atoms. Our body didn't have swelling or tumors before, why did we have tumors later on? Because the arrangement of cells, molecules, and atoms is different.
Our human body is actually a combination of atoms, arranged in the form of humans, healthy people, and patients, all of which are this pile of atoms, just arranged in different ways. Who do atoms listen to? Listen to the words of energy. The form of energy in physics is called a field, also known as a field quantity, and in traditional Chinese medicine it is called "qi".
Life is alive, and the field determines the arrangement of atoms. In traditional Chinese medicine, "qi" determines "form" - the appearance of the human body. Furthermore, the "qi" of a person is determined by the "god", which means that changes in the spirit can cause changes in the operation of the body's qi and blood, and changes in qi and blood directly lead to organic changes in the body. If a person's' god 'is abnormal, it can lead to illness. In modern physics, information affects energy, and energy affects matter.
The liver meridian starts from the foot and runs upwards along the inner side of the thigh, passing through the liver of the body, and then continues upwards until it reaches below the nipple. Young people have a strong sense of anger, and if not restrained properly, their liver qi will rise.
If at this time, due to some external factors, he is unable to release his anger and his pent up breath is usually held in three positions: one is his throat; The second one is held in the chest. Most of the women who hold it in their chest are over 30 years old, and they hold it in the middle. So people who often get angry have a very stiff jaw and stomach. Especially after getting angry, this area is particularly tight and not loose.
Young people in their twenties have strong vitality and a tendency towards upward mobility. This girl is like this, her anger is rising and she's holding it in her throat.
Such people often have a stubborn personality. Stubborn personality and lack of flexibility can cause blockages in the liver meridian. Once the liver qi becomes stagnant and there is a blockage in the upper and lower parts, it can lead to illness. When she came to see me for medical treatment, her parents were right beside her. Her father said at the time, "This child has been stubborn since childhood. Now that she's driving, when someone else's car overtakes her, she insists on rushing over, overtaking them, and pushing them aside. That's just her personality
I said to the girl, "If you don't change your personality, no matter how you take medicine or treat it, it won't work because this qi exists. Your qi will cause a field energy in this area. Even if you surgically remove this area, this field energy will still exist. In the future, your diet will absorb nutrients, and these molecules will still gather here. After gathering, tumors will still grow, which is useless
So, I told her that in order to recover from illness, we must first start with our personality and modify it. Where to modify? Starting from filial piety towards parents, make modifications. Because 'filial piety is the first of all virtues', once a person shows filial piety to their parents, they will develop a sense of respect towards others. This positive attitude will naturally calm down the fire energy, and once the fire energy subsides, the meridians will be easily unobstructed. Once the meridians are unobstructed, the illness will automatically improve.
Then I asked her, "Are you at home and not doing any household chores?" Her mother nodded quickly beside her and said, "My daughter has been spoiled since childhood and doesn't do any household chores. She also likes to confront her parents." That's right, this is the most liver damaging part of nature. Because anger leads to anger, when a person is angry or hits someone, their anger suddenly rises.
People who often clash with their parents find it difficult to show respect to their leaders and elders in society. In society, not everyone is as tolerant of her as their parents, and they are always obedient to themselves. People with a wooden personality find it difficult to reflect on themselves and always believe that they are right. Such a personality is bound to hit a nail frequently, forming a vicious cycle.
The prescription I gave her is Si Ni San, which is a classic Chinese medicine formula for soothing the liver and regulating qi. At the same time, I told her, 'If you want to treat your illness, from today on, don't let your mother do all the housework when you go home.' Her mother was already in her fifties at the time.
I said to this girl, "As a young person, if your mother sweeps the floor, does housework, and cleans dishes every day at home, and you don't do any of the work, and you are lazy and lazy next to her, letting your parents do it, and even going against them, then your heart is not right, your heart is not right, your qi is not good, your blood circulation is not smooth, and you will get sick. From now on, you have to do all the housework, let your parents take a break, and you will also experience the fatigue of doing housework and the hardships of your parents. Do you still go against your parents
What is learned on paper is shallow, and one must put it into practice. Many things, many truths, cannot be explained clearly, and can only be understood by oneself in the process of doing them. Only after personally experiencing the difficulties of doing household chores, will children understand their parents' hard work and naturally develop a sense of respect. As long as a person shows respect, their anger will decrease and they will be peaceful; When one becomes arrogant, their entire body's qi and blood surge upwards.
A few months later, her parents brought her over again and she showed me the laboratory test results from the hospital. The tumor had significantly reduced in size, and T3 and T4 had basically returned to normal values. Everyone knows that thyroid tumors do not heal so quickly. She said the doctors in the hospital were very surprised, why did it disappear so quickly? In fact, there is a profound and simple truth here, which is that if we adjust our mentality well, our illness will heal quickly.
Long term absence of a smile on the face and poor circulation of organs and qi
Everyone knows that the mutual generation and restraint of the Five Elements are wood, fire, earth, metal, and water. Water born wood, liver represents wood, and wood represents trees. Trees grow well in areas with particularly rich soil and water sources. Water represents the kidneys, and a person's liver qi is particularly good, indicating that their kidney water is also particularly abundant. When a person has sufficient kidney qi, their liver qi is nourished and their body is healthy, which is called mutual growth.
What is Xiangke? Jinkemu. What does' Golden Qi 'refer to? Converge and kill. The weather corresponding to gold is autumn, when everything is desolate and there is a sense of solemnity. Some people are also too wealthy, and they have one thing in common, which is that they love to pick faults and nitpick, do not rub sand in their eyes, and never allow others to make even the slightest mistake. Since I have this psychological state, what would my face look like? Always with a straight face, never smiling. Many bosses are like this, unable to see a smile because they are always dissatisfied with their subordinates.
People like this often have a pale complexion and cold hands and feet. Why is that? Because firstly, people secrete purple toxic gas when they are angry; Secondly, it causes changes in the composition of the blood; Thirdly, it leads to poor capillary circulation. Everyone may have had this experience, feeling tired after getting angry, and feeling tired may easily cause numbness in their hands and feet. Why is that? Because when you are angry, the qi in your body goes up and dissipates the essence of your body. Fatigue consumes energy, and numbness of hands and feet means poor circulation of the ends.
As we mentioned earlier, the healthier a person's body, the weaker their muscles and bones, just like the softness of a baby's muscles and bones. As one gets older, their muscles and bones become harder, and the flexibility of the elderly is much worse than that of young people. Why is that? People who have a certain understanding of traditional Chinese medicine know that 'the liver controls the tendons, and anger can harm the liver'. Frequent anger can damage the liver. After the liver is injured, the tendons will become aged, stiff, and lose elasticity, just like rubber bands that have been used for a long time.
Let's reflect on whether our whole body becomes stiff and tense when we are angry, as if the rubber band is stretched to the extreme? If a person is frequently angry, their tendons will contract, forming a "tendon contraction" and causing blockages in their meridians. The meridians and organs are interconnected. Once the meridians become stagnant, the organs cannot receive the supply of qi and blood. Over time, problems may arise in the organs, which can damage their lifespan. There are many meridians passing through the head and face. If you keep a straight face all day long, your nerves will be tense and these meridians will not be connected. Over time, others may become intimidated by you, and you may also feel particularly nervous in your own heart.
And such people are prone to a disease called cirrhosis. I have treated a patient in the early stage of liver cirrhosis. When he came to see me, he had a stern face and didn't even smile. I told her, 'Your illness is caused by your introverted emotions, which easily lead to anger and damage to your liver.' I said, 'Being angry during the day alone is not enough to cause liver cirrhosis.'.
Another characteristic of you is that every night before going to bed, you have to hang yourself from the beam and beat yourself up How can this be explained? Because this patient has a heavy heart, there are still many things that cannot be let go at night and cannot be relieved.
When going to bed at night, she also needs to close her eyes and replay some scenes that she thinks were not good during the day, or things she thinks others did wrong, like playing a movie. That is to say, for the same thing, she suffers once during the day and again at night, exhausting herself until she finally falls asleep.
It can be imagined that her sleep quality is very poor. The next day, when I woke up, my body was still very tired and exhausted. Over time, an acidic constitution will form, causing liver depression and qi stagnation, gradually leading to the development of liver cirrhosis. So I often tell patients that this is called the 'disease making movement', which is a disease that you create yourself and work very hard to create. Many people, at a very young age, worked diligently to create illnesses, even leading to terminal illnesses.
So I prescribed some liver protective drugs to this patient and asked her to practice smiling every day. When a person smiles, their nerves relax and their meridians become more unobstructed. Later on, as she was practicing, she slowly figured it out. Two months later, I received a text message from her: "Whenever I thought of the scene where Dr. Peng told me about 'hanging on the beam and beating me up', I burst into tears and laughed. Many things don't need to be so serious. Let go of your emotions and feel more relaxed." Later, the patient's liver cirrhosis gradually improved on its own.
And she also told me that she didn't take the medicine I prescribed for her.
What does this mean? Mentality can affect the body. So, illness cannot be cured by taking medicine. Many diseases do not require medication, we only need to adjust our mentality a little, and our endocrine system will be greatly improved. Once the endocrine system improves, the body's self-healing ability will come into play, and many diseases will be cured. So, since diseases can be created or eliminated, it all depends on our collective efforts.
