Su Dongpo's health preserving theory
2022-05-07

Su Dongpo, one of the eight famous writers in Tang and Song Dynasties and a famous writer in Northern Song Dynasty, not only made outstanding achievements in literature, calligraphy and painting, but also had in-depth research and unique views on health preservation. At that time, a good friend asked him for health tips. After a little thought, he wrote the following words: "Nothing is the most important; Going to bed early is the most important thing; Walking safety is the most important; Eating at night is the most important thing; " And he particularly emphasized that this prescription originated from the Warring States period, "I take it effectively", thus achieving its famous four health preservation methods.

Nothing is expensive.

Health care is the first, and Su Shi's health care first naturally begins with spiritual interest. Su Shi's official career was bumpy, he was repeatedly relegated, and his life was full of twists and turns. But the cruelty of reality, ill-fated fate, inner hesitation and disappointment with life did not make him lose confidence and courage. On the contrary, in the face of adversity, he tempered an open-minded and broad mind, regardless of honor and disgrace, indifferent to fame and fortune, positive and optimistic, happy with the times, quite the essence of Taoist style. He used poetry to express his ambition and feelings: "You can make food without meat, and you can't live without bamboo;" No meat makes people thin, no bamboo makes people vulgar; People can be fat if they are thin, but ordinary people can't cure them. " On the other hand, from the daily necessities and delicacies of Dongpo hat, Dongpo wine, Dongpo cake, Dongpo soup and Dongpo meat, which were quite popular among the people at that time, it is not difficult to find that Su Shi was not only extraordinary in spirit, but also actively joined the WTO in reality, and there was no lack of leisure and elegance.

Go to bed early to get rich.

Good habits of going to bed early and getting up early can effectively ensure the quality of sleep. It plays an irreplaceable role in restoring abundant physical strength, maintaining a good state of mind and effectively maintaining the human biological clock. In daily life, Su Shi seldom stays up late. Even during the day, he often practices meditation. In this regard, he once described it in "On Health": "Only when you are photographed, you are like a puppet." It has long been an indisputable fact that modern people have a fast pace of life and great psychological pressure. However, this can never be a reason to ignore health and waste life. Especially those young people who often work overtime or like to stay up late, they should have a clear understanding. Say goodbye to bad habits, ensure sleep, and make every day full of energy and vitality.

Walk leisurely instead of sitting in a carriage.

Go ahead and take a ride, there are two meanings here, one is to be casual and simple in life, and the other is to pay attention to exercise at ordinary times. As far as Su Shi is concerned, not to mention being relegated, even though he was an official in the imperial court, he lived a simple life and never pursued material luxury. To this end, he also specially wrote a poem: "When you go out, you will lose the lotus. The bridal chamber is the medium of cold and heat. White tooth Emei, chop the axe. Sweet, crisp and fat, the medicine of rotten intestines. " As for exercise, there are seven or eight places in Su Shi's cosmopolitan experience, namely Hangzhou, Xuzhou, Mizhou, Anzhou, Huizhou, Yingzhou and Yangzhou. Wherever he goes, he will never forget to travel and enjoy. This can not only dispel the depression and bitterness in the heart, but also achieve the purpose of exercising and cultivating temperament, killing two birds with one stone, and at the same time it just confirms his theory of "combining work and rest".

Eat it as meat at night.

It's probably not an exaggeration to say that Su Shi is an authentic food expert. In those years when he was relegated, only his original food included Dongpo wine, Dongpo cake, Dongpo soup and Dongpo meat, and even now, some of them are still one of the indispensable dishes in restaurants of all sizes. Even better, Su Shi also likes to cook "Euryale ferox porridge" and "ginger porridge" with Euryale ferox and ginger as raw materials. He said, "It's wonderful to finish the porridge and sleep after eating." Coincidentally, in traditional Chinese medicine, Euryale ferox is called "ginseng in water", which has the functions of strengthening the spleen and nourishing the stomach, tonifying the kidney and solidifying essence, resisting aging and prolonging life; Ginger can also benefit the spleen and stomach, dispel cold, and has obvious effect on preventing myocardial infarction. It is worth mentioning that in terms of eating habits, Su Shi advocates that "people should be hungry before they are full". Actually, this is also in line with common sense. When you are hungry, no matter what you eat, it feels delicious. When you are full, I'm afraid no matter how delicious it is, it's hard to swallow.
