Features: The Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon (hereinafter referred to as Inner Canon) is one of the earliest medical classics preserved in China. It is not only a great medical masterpiece but also a brilliant work on health preservation and rehabilitation. Because it comprehensively reflects and absorbs the achievements of health preservation and rehabilitation before the Qin and Han dynasties, it provides a relatively comprehensive and systematic discussion of the relevant theories, principles, and methods of traditional Chinese medicine in health preservation and rehabilitation. This book is divided into two parts. The first part focuses on the academic thoughts of The Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon, appropriately citing the academic views of ancient medical scholars and health preservation experts as evidence, and elaborates on theories and methods of health preservation in a relatively comprehensive manner. The second part explains various aspects from the perspectives of clothing, food, shelter, and transportation, combined with the current status of society, aiming to make the content easy to understand. It encourages readers to respect reality, draw lessons from ancient wisdom, master methods, and achieve the goal of health preservation.
