Whoa, you learn fast. But first you have to figure out the type of internal heat before you can use the appropriate medicine. For example, think of the heart fire I just mentioned. If you have too much fire in your heart, you will feel annoyed, you'll be insomniac, and you'll get sores on your tongue. At times like this, you get really good results from using lotus seeds to get rid of internal heat.

关注吸气时腹部向外的涨起推出，呼气尽量将肚脐贴向脊柱的方向，使我们肺内沉积而污浊的气体向外地呼出。此时我们像是一朵晨间悄悄开放的莲花，没有尘世的污染，只有自身的洁白。

Notice that when you are inhaling, your abdomen rises and pushes outwards. Try your best to press your belly button to your spine when you are exhaling. This allows the impure air that has built up to exit our lungs. Right now, we are like a lotus flowers gently blossoming in at dawn. We are untouched by the pollution of this world. All we have is our own purity.

大自然里的生物体都要遵循这个规律。另外，补什么是因人而异的。比如，肠胃不好的人，就不要大鱼大肉了，可以喝些莲子粥、山药粥，鱼片粥等容易消化的食物。肺不好的人呢，可以用百合、枸杞泡茶喝。

They should use lily buds and wolfberries when they make tea.
