The end of summer (when the time of the spleen) and autumn (when the time of the lungs) is much more moisture in the air than usual, so during this time there are also more problems associated with moisture in the body. We’re talking about sinuses, a dumpling in the throat, wet cough – catharsis, increased fungus and dandruff, oops from the eyes, cysts. Mucus also obsesses organs that are not bloodied enough and therefore do not work as they should.

Most moisture comes into the body via food (milk and dairy products and flour) and through a humid environment (mold in the bedroom, stay next to water sources, sleeping on a water bed…)

In September and March, when the equinox is due to the regulation of the jina and yang moxanje more efficient. That doesn’t mean you can’t run it for the rest of the month.

The main task of the moxe is to keep warm and melt the moisture. Moxa is an herbal heating rod that is lit over a candle (it takes about 3 to 5 min) to become glowing and then heat a certain area of the body. Naturopathically used in the following areas.

• On the navel: when the area on the abdomen is cold and damp, when cysts are present, irregular periods.
• In the area of the lungs (between the warts or the back between the shoulder blades, if we moxamo others), when a wet cough is present, catalytic.
• In the area of the third eye, when the nose is smoling, sinuses are present, but we feel it’s damp. If it’s hot and dry, it’s pointless to warm up further. In this case, use salt and water inhalation and tissue salt consumption ferrum phosphoricum and Natrium Chloratum. It’s necessary to stand in front of a mirror while the third eye is being moxed, never lie down in front of you so that a piece doesn’t fall into your eye!

Children under the age of 12 we do moxibustion in the area of the lungs between the shoulder blades, across their pyjamas when they fall asleep.

Once moxate the belly button, you can add 1 teaspoon of plain kitchen salt to the belly button. Salt is a conductor, and you can see how much moisture is present in the body after completing the moxanjuing. If there is a lot of moisture, the salt becomes slightly moist (but it does not melt).

It’s imperative that you carry yourself, while you moxate a glass jar for investing, where you shake off the moxo, so that when you moxa your body, there is no particles on the skin.

If you also have tissue salts included in your therapy, I advise you to use e.g. 3 grains if you are 30 years and over, 4 grains if you are 40 years and over, 5 grains if you are over 50 years… tissue/Schussler salts and crush a little, in the belly button and in the same way as salt, warm the belly button. The tissue/Schussler salts are highly diluted and act as information, so they will get deeper into the body with the help of moxe (in addition to enjoying them).

Use

• Calcium Fluoratum: Sagging of the uterus or other organs
• Calcium Phosphoricum: after disease to facilitate recovery, in calcium deprivation, osteoporosis, for strength and courage
• Calcium Sulfuricum: brown vaginal soothing, vaginal inflammation
• Ferrum Phosphoricum: Iron deficiency, excessive cold in the body
• Kalium Chloratum: fungi, white mucus (white catarrh, white vaginal discharge)
• Kalium Sulfuricum: yellow mucus, fat metabolism problems
• Magnesium Phosphoricum: painful periods, abdominal cramps
• Natrium Chloratum: to increase hydration, for dry skin
• Silica: for elasticity with Calcium Fluoratum

Turn off the moxa by putting it in a glass (as a place to invest) and cover with a lid. Because the oxygen runs out, it goes out. Then place the glass in a safe place, e.g. on tiles (not wood or plastic) because the bottom of the glass is hot so that nothing ignites.

After moxing, prolong the effect of the action by placing a beehive coat on the navel or lung area (back on the back) and wearing a lower wool and silk shirt. This is indispensable during autumn and winter, as it absorbs excess moisture and warms the body. It is important that we are always warm, so we will not lose unnecessary energy.

We do not use when we have fever or there is too much heat, inflammation in the body. In addition, it should not be used by pregnant women in the area of the navel (lungs and third eye may).

In the meantime, enjoy more food that warms up: chestnut, beans, ginger, cinnamon, turnips, radii, arugual-melting mucus, chicken soup, peach. It is essential to remove milk and dairy products and flour products, including bread as little as possible, prefer to tortilla from puree or kamut’s wholemeal flour, as it does not contain as much moisture and yeast, which is particularly recommended in the case of fungi – which like a moist and sweet environment.

If you’ve missed the moxanje since the beginning of September, it’s okay. Moxajte at least 2 days before the equinox, on the day of the equinox (22 September) and two days later. Or anytime of the year (not in summer).
