Health care is to maintain the body and mind, in layman's terms, health care. Health care is health care, and there is also a saying of health preservation. Health preservation is an eternal topic, which has always been valued by people. There are many discussions about "health preservation" in China's traditional medical literature, literature, history, philosophy, Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism. Some say that "health preservation" takes care of health, respects health and pays attention to hygiene, while others call it Shen Tao, Baosheng, Yisheng and Yi Yang ... Their main purpose is to tell people to conform to the laws of nature to maintain their body and mind and achieve the goal of health and longevity. Health care is all-encompassing, and opinions vary. There are also many traditional health schools. Generally speaking, Taoism advocates the unity of heaven and man, quietism; Confucianism attaches importance to practicality, rationality and self-improvement; Buddhism advocates meditation, massage, vegetarianism and drinking tea; Saints pay attention to the combination of dynamic and static. Health care includes health care methods and health care technologies. The way of keeping in good health is different from the way of keeping in good health: the way of keeping in good health refers to the theory of keeping in good health; The art of keeping in good health refers to the method of keeping in good health. The ancient ways of keeping in good health almost covered the theories of keeping in good health in medicine, diet, religion, folk customs, martial arts, etc. The contents were extremely complicated, but the details were nothing more than the following four points: 1. Comply with nature. Emphasize the unity of man and nature, and attach importance to the harmonious unity of man and nature and society. As advocated in Neijing, knowing astronomy from above, geography from below and personnel from the middle can last for a long time. Laozi's Tao Te Ching says "Taoism is natural", which means conforming to the laws of nature. 2. Both form and spirit. On the one hand, we should pay attention to physical maintenance, on the other hand, we should pay more attention to mental and psychological adjustment. The so-called "keep the spirit full" and "keep the spirit focused". 3. Combination of static and dynamic. It is advocated that "moving generates yang", and it is also advocated that "moving is quiet" and "not to be light." 4. Give support according to the situation. Advocate "examination and cultivation" and "syndrome differentiation and cultivation", that is, apply different health care methods according to time, place and person. The ancient art of keeping in good health required to be carried out under the guidance of the way of keeping in good health, which includes the following seven aspects: 1. Spiritual cultivation. Including mental and psychological recuperation, hobby recuperation and moral quality recuperation. Most of the contents involved are Chinese medicine culture, religious culture and folk culture. 2. Behavior support. Including daily life behaviors such as clothing, food, shelter, transportation and sex life. 3. Qi Yang. It is mainly the "internal cultivation" of medical fitness qigong, involving Chinese medicine culture, religious culture and martial arts culture. 4. cultivate. It mainly includes physical exercise and fitness activities. Mainly the combination of medical culture and martial arts culture. 5. feed and raise. As one of the main contents of TCM health preservation, it has a wide range of applications and is suitable for many people. The main contents are the selection, preparation and application of health food, as well as diet methods and control. It involves medicine, medicine, food, tea, wine and folk customs. 6. medicine The main content is the selection and modulation of health-preserving drugs. Its preparations are mostly pure natural edible plant medicines; Its preparation method is generally rough adjustment; Its dosage forms are also mostly combined with food. Therefore, there is often a saying of "medicated diet" in the field of Chinese medicine. 7. surgery. Use massage, massage, acupuncture, bathing, ironing, magnetic attraction, vessel stimulation and other therapies to preserve health. Mainly related to medical culture, it is a non-food and non-drug health care method besides the above health care technology. It must be mentioned that the characteristic of ancient health care is that it emphasizes "nurturing people" on the basis of health care methods and health care techniques, and does not adhere to the unity within the group. For example, a needs to maintain the body; B need to focus on conditioning diet; And c needs to focus on adjusting the spirit. If we indiscriminately ask Party A, Party B and Party C to strengthen physical exercise or change a certain diet structure, it may not meet everyone's health needs. Modern health care advocates self-care in theory. Modern health care has developed into an open and constantly improving system on the basis of inheriting many essences of ancient health care and combining with modern reality. Books about health care are also dazzling. To sum up, modern health care generally includes the following categories: psychological health care, behavioral health care, environmental health care, sports health care and diet health care. Modern health care advocates self-care in theory. The World Health Organization pointed out that health should be composed of four elements: parental inheritance accounts for15%; Social environment and natural environment account for 10% and 7% respectively, * *17%; Medical conditions account for 8%; Personal lifestyle accounts for 60%. The first two items are uncontrollable factors, accounting for 32%; Among the 68% controllable factors, personal lifestyle factors account for 60%, which is close to 90% of controllable factors. Therefore, the key to health is in your own hands. If you want to live a long and healthy life, you must rely on yourself. There are many ideas about modern health preservation methods, and they are too numerous to mention. The most popular ideas are put forward by the World Health Organization: reasonable diet, moderate exercise, smoking cessation and alcohol restriction, and psychological balance, which are the four cornerstones of a healthy life.
