【容易受驚嚇體質】膽小如鼠有藥醫?
#嚇到個心離一離呀
#容易受驚嚇原來是腎氣虛
#星期三問題多多
養好腎不做膽小鬼
阿驚:「EC,我覺得自己好細膽,小小事都驚,嚇一嚇都心跳,細膽是否天生無藥醫?」
CheckCheckCin:
膽小,即容易受驚害怕。其實人人都有恐懼,有人怕鳥、怕昆蟲,也有人害怕的東西匪夷所思,但如果嚴重到影響日常生活和社交,人人都覺得你煩厭就要正視了!以中醫角度來看屬於「驚恐」,正所謂「恐傷腎」,恐是腎的情志,如果腎氣不足,恐懼狀況會更為嚴重。我們平日說「驚到瀨尿」原來是真的,是因為受驚影響腎控制水液的功能。腎虛的人通常伴隨健忘、心煩失眠、疲憊乏力及盜汗等症狀。
想改善膽小情況,可以從「思勝恐」入手,通過理性的思考告訴自己所恐懼的事情是沒有意義的,嘗試克服恐懼;其次可以補益腎氣,適量進食黑色食物如黑芝麻、黑豆、黑米、黑棗、海參等,可以補益腎氣,亦可助你更「大膽」!
養腎常暖敷腰部
腎俞穴及命門穴都在小腰位置,經常暖敷有固本培元,強身防病的功效。
Keep a healthy kidney to avoid being chicken
EC, I’m scared of everything and my heart jumps at the smallest things, is being chicken something that can be fixed?
CheckCheckCin: Everyone has fears, some people are afraid of birds, others bugs, for some there might be unimaginable fears, but if these fears effect daily and regular social life, then it is something that should be addressed! From Chinese medicine perspective, fear can hurt the kidneys. If you have deficient kidney qi, it can also worsen your fears. Those with asthenic kidney may experience forgetfulness, irritability and insomnia, fatigue, and night sweats.
To improve the situation, try to talk to yourself logically to understand your fears have no grounds to overcome them. You can also replenish your kidney qi by eating black colored foods such as black sesame, black beans, black rice, black date, and sea cucumber.
You can also warm compress your lower back area to strengthen your kidneys. Kidney Shu and Ming Men acupuncture points are both in the lower back. Warm compressing them regularly can strengthen your overall health and improve immunity.
