February and the lung in Chinese medicine
6/2/12
From the Chinese calendar on Feb. 4 with Chun Li, which means we get in early spring and the first day of the new year. The vision to start the year with the onset of spring has its own logic in giving the same year cyclicity and stamina of all living beings.
The cycle of exactly how the cycle of life: a first time for development and growth with the spring, summer solar maximum expression, and slow decay of the initial fall and internalization and finally with death ' winter.
The organ connected to the month of February is the lung, his pet related is the tigre and its time is between 3 and 5 am.
With an inhale it enters the world with an exhale you leave this world. Breathing is connected with the life of the human body and also with the material aspect of life: the duality that is nothing but the law of yin and yang . If you do not accept and use both parts, you lose your balance and strength. A time to inhale-exhale for one, a time to make a non-doing, a time for everything by listening and without falling into the mechanical nature of the act, but by exploiting its potential.
Breathing has always been considered the most important focus of work of all the most ancient martial arts, yoga and qi qong. Although an automatic function of the body is performed through the use of will and concentration, and to date still not considered and used in the common Western education.
Cha said of Tigre, in classical mythology esoterically represents the duality of good and evil, creation-destruction. While in Chinese philosophy with the famous saying "ride the tiger", he sees an opportunity to leverage our aggressive nature, the wonder dangerous animal and making it gentle. An act of complete control, and of great potential power of choice, nothing to do with the vision of 'lamb that nothing else can do but be gentle. A goal that is contained in every martial art: putting violence in the service of non-violence.
Finally, the time is special, is the time when the dawn will come, but it still feels far away or only partially its light. I n this time many people wake up and can no longer go back to sleep. I do not think a case, we consider it as an impatience of the body to wake up, presumably given by overloading or over-excitement or overstimulation.
The lung is the first channel of energy circulation and receives the baton from the channel above it, the liver, which, as we saw in the previous month, that's what keeps more and tends to go live and then the excess. To work on This type of insomnia you need to work on the liver and its related organs and not only on the lung just as in all forms of asthma.
The diseases that affect the lungs from colds are helped by the direct treatment of the lung channel. Do you think that with the simple point LU 9 (shu point of the channel of the lung) (in English Lung meridian), you run a winter seasonal treatment according to the method applied to the channel of the I Ching Lung, useful as a preventative.
In acute cases it is useful to work in association with the spleen with which the lung forms the great canal called Tai yin or yin of the top layer on which it is possible to treat forms catarrose and excessive mucus production. Recall that the lung is also directly connected with the large intestine with which it forms a bond of organo-bowel, internal-external and with which it is possible to facilitate the elimination through the feces of the excess heat format due to the acute pathology.
Finally, the lung is connected to the urinary bladder, which is its opposite clock than the clock or if you prefer the Chinese calendar. The treatment in the acute phase of this channel may also favor the elimination of excess re-heat the urine, and drenandolo riequilibrandolo exactly like the herbal remedies focused on acute respiratory tree.
Come ho detto in altri post questo organo incredibile che è il polmone soffre il freddo, la secchezza e la tristezza che è la sua emozione. Un modo per aiutarlo è sicuramente quello di limitare e se possibile evitare il fumo e lo smog e respirare aria pulita . E ancora di evitare l'eccessiva secchezza causata dai termosifoni che in questa stagione spesso sono a manetta. Infine di non alimentare l'emozione della tristezza come atto di attaccamento nei confronti di quello che abbiamo perso. In sintesi non stringiamo i pugni per tentare di recuperare ciò che nella mano non c'è più.
Lasciamo andare e facciamo scorrere anche la sofferenza qualcosa d'altro colmerà non solo le nostre mani ma anche il nostro interiore esattamente come fa l'aria nei polmoni.

Le infezioni virali da herpes sono del tutto particolari, la famiglia degli herpes formata dal Simplex 1 o labialis, Simplex 2 o vaginalis, Simplex 1-2 a localizzazione mista e Varicella Zoster si muove in modo del tutto peculiare. Questi virus infatti una volta incontrato il corpo da infettare per la prima volta si annidano in esso e rimangono latenti a vita per risvegliarsi in condizioni esterne o interne specifiche.
Si, per i cinesi le stagioni sono 5 e non 4, come per Vivaldi e per il resto del pianeta. Ma direte voi, 'sti cinesi son proprio matti!
