A Comparative Study of Wang Yangming’s View of Health Preservation and the Concept of Emotional Health in Traditional Chinese Medicine—Taking the Emotional Thoughts Discussed by the Two as an Examples

王阳明养生观和中医情志养生观都属于中国传统养生理论的重要板块，在理论内涵和具体实践层面存有共同点，也存在一定的不同点。情志思想对二者进行比较研究：二者均认同情绪对健康有影响，王阳明主张“心”是一切的主宰，以实现“致良知”为目标；中医情志则主张从脏腑协调的角度开展多种形式的养生，王阳明着重强调“致良知”跟“惩忿窒欲”，而中医倡导运用“治未病”模式，尽管两者在理论内涵与实践路径上有所差别，但都显示出了中国传统学术对养生的重视，且对当今社会的身心和谐及养生模式具有重要的引导意义。Wang Yangming’s concept of health preservation and the concept of traditional Chinese medicine emotional health preservation both belong to the important plates of traditional Chinese health preservation theory, and there are similarities and differences in theoretical connotation and specific practice. Emotional thought makes a comparative study of the two: both agree that emotions have an impact on health, Wang Yangming advocates that “heart” is the master of everything, with the goal of achieving “conscience”; Wang Yangming emphasizes “to conscience” and “punishing anger and suppressing desire”, while traditional Chinese medicine advocates the use of the “cure before disease” model, although the two are different in terms of theoretical connotation and practical path, but they all show that traditional Chinese scholarship attaches great importance to health preservation, and has important guiding significance for the physical and mental harmony and health model of today’s society.
