4. Four seasons maintenance

Self-help is the key to maintaining a Yin deficiency constitution. The weak links of people with Yin deficiency are the lungs and kidneys. The lungs are the upper source of water, and the kidneys are the lower source of water. Kidney yin deficiency is more likely to be caused by congenital factors. For people with insufficient lung yin, the lungs are the main characters in autumn. The Qi is restrained and the Yang is hidden. The lungs are responsible for descending and will suppress your liver and heart fire, keep your emotions stable, and allow the Yang to descend all the way, so that the kidney water is fully replenished and your Yin deficiency constitution is protected. So how do you make the lungs calm and peaceful? You need to understand the characteristics of the lungs. The lungs are a delicate organ and they like freshness and moisture. First, it likes cleanliness, and second, it likes moisture. Therefore, you should eat some cool and moisturizing foods, such as Adenophora Root, Ophiopogon japonicus, Polygonatum odoratum, lily, snow pear, and seasonal fruits in autumn: persimmon, etc., which are all refreshing. As long as you moisten it, it will naturally descend. This is the nature of the lungs and the way of life.

Among the five internal organs, only the lungs have a direct and very close connection with the outside world - breathing. The lungs are a delicate organ that cannot tolerate cold, heat, and especially dryness. So if you don't keep it moisturized in the autumn, your lungs will become dry. The nose starts to become dry, the mood becomes irritable, sleep becomes troublesome, and the stool becomes dry. It just can't be reduced. When you get up and cough in the morning, the first spit that comes out is often mixed with blood, and you may suffer from anal fissures and bloody stools. This is the result of not allowing the lungs to descend in a clear and moist manner. More importantly, it will aggravate your yin deficiency, cause your constitution to become unbalanced, and lead to sub-health. In more serious cases, you will get the susceptible diseases mentioned above. Therefore, autumn is the key to health preservation for people with Yin deficiency constitution.
