A brief analysis of birth-growth-transformation-collection-storage and its influences on sleep and blood pressure
Birth-growth-transformation-collection-storage are five stages summarized according to the periodic change laws of all things,which are similar to the modern concept of biological rhythm.The biological rhythm,also known as the biological clock,is a rhythm that changes repeatedly according to the respective time order of all living things,including people.Studies have shown that the sleep-wake cycle,blood pressure,heart rate,body temperature,hormone secretion,nerve excitation and inhibition in human body all have obvious circadian rhythms.For example,blood pressure and sleep often show pathological changes due to the abnormal functions of collection and storage at night.From the perspective of birth-growth-transformation-collection-storage,some chapters in Huangdi Neijing(《黄帝内经》)can be well interpreted,and the ancient people's construction and understanding on human physiology,pathology,health preservation and disease prevention and treatment can be understood.The human body cannot be separated from the external environment.Through the study and perception on the various stages of birth-growth-transformation-collection-storage,we can personally feel the ancient people's awe of nature,better understand the ancient people's ways of thinking,and have a clearer understanding of chronic diseases such as hypertension and sleep disorders.
