For example, the ancients took getting up early to comb their hair as an important thing for health preservation, and they needed to comb their hair frequently, because combing their hair often could not only remove dust and dandruff, but also keep the hair clean and the air at the roots unobstructed, improve and enhance blood circulation, prevent hair loss and delay the process of gray hair. Shen Shi, an Amin, thinks that combing your hair once a day can dredge blood vessels and dispel wind and dampness. Xie Zhao's Five Miscellaneous Notes (Volume 12) also puts forward that the number of times of combing your hair every day is 1000 times. Ancient health care experts called the wooden comb "wooden tooth pill", saying that combing your hair 1000 times every morning can keep your hair dry and your face happy. What is worth remembering here is that health care experts call the wooden comb "Muya Pill", which shows that although it is a wooden comb, it does have the effect of a panacea. Because of the magical effect of combing hair, some people call it the "immortal shampoo method". Yu Yue quoted people in the Song Dynasty as saying: "Zhou Tianyi said that at midnight from the winter solstice, he combed his hair 1200 times to praise the stagnation of yang and make the qi of the five internal organs circulate all the year round, which is called the immortal shampoo method."
The head and feet are the upper and lower ends of the human body. Combing your hair and washing your feet before going to bed can improve your health and have a good sleep at night. In the Song Dynasty, some people even called these two things health essentials. Song Zhang's "Gui Er Ji" records: "Guo Shangxian has fallen into a book. Since Yang Zhaiwei gave him a job and tasted the guidance of bait, two things are very important to his health. It is also important to comb his hair and wash his feet. Shang Xianyun:' comb your hair and wash your feet, and you will live forever. When you fall asleep, you will be very calm. "As can be seen from the poem, combing your hair and washing your feet is not only conducive to longevity, but also a real enjoyment when you are going to sleep!
The ancients often put "washing" and "washing" together. "gargle" means gargle, the purpose of which is to clean the mouth and prevent oral diseases. "A Thousand Women" said: "Rinse your mouth several times after meals to keep your teeth undefeated and your mouth fragrant. "Lao Lao Heng Yan also said:" After eating, it is the most tiring to leave a gap between teeth. " "If you eat something sweet, you should wash it. Every time you see your teeth fall out before you reach your age, it's sweet to keep them, and gradually you become a worm. "Rinse your mouth after eating, especially after eating sweets. Moreover, ancient health care also believed that it is necessary to gargle early before going to bed, and the effect of gargling before going to bed is far better than getting up early. " Washing at night is not as good as washing at night "is the obscene record." As for the water for gargling, warm water is the best, but if you can get used to gargling with cold water, the effect will be better. "You can lose your teeth forever, that is, when you want to lose them, you can avoid pain. "
Although it hurts to urinate on paper, it is inevitable in life. Under normal circumstances, people urinate about once every 1 to 4 hours, which decreases at night due to slow metabolism. It is best to defecate once a day to form a habit. In order not to violate normal physiological functions, except in special circumstances, don't hold your urine and hold your stool at ordinary times. Shen Shi, a man of the Ming Dynasty, warned in the Book of Scripture: "It is inconvenient to endure five drenches of urine and paralysis of knees; Endure defecation into five hemorrhoids, and urine is so hard that your knees are cold; Exhale, defecation, backache, eyes. " It can be seen that the consequences of "forbearance" and "forbearance" are serious. The ancients believed that if you can grit your teeth when urinating, you can avoid the trouble of toothache and trembling.
