The survival and growth of all things are inseparable from balance, which means that life is in a relatively dynamic state, not a static absolute balance. Physical balance is the secret of people's health and longevity.
So, what is body balance? How can we achieve physical balance?
The human body, like everything in the world, is also composed of many balances, and these various balances are also necessary for the human body. As we all know, the human body is composed of various organs, and each organ is permeated with qi and blood. Only when qi and blood maintain a relatively balanced state can the normal functions of each organ be maintained.
For example, people's blood pressure can not be too high or too low, and both high blood pressure and low blood pressure will affect health; People's heartbeat can't be too fast or too slow, and tachycardia and bradycardia can lead to death; People's blood sugar cannot be too high or too low. If it is too high, it will cause diabetes. If it is too low, hypoglycemia will occur. People can't be too fat or too thin. Being too fat can easily lead to diseases such as hyperglycemia, hyperlipidemia and hypertension, while being too thin can lead to malnutrition.
In short, the human body is maintained by balance in all aspects. Without these balances, people's health will have problems.
In addition, the human body is the master of activities, and the human mind needs rest, and the combination of motion and static can maintain physical and mental health.
Psychological balance, physical needs and the psychological balance of healthy people, that is, psychological balance. A person's mental state has a great influence on his health. We can often see such a phenomenon in our life: some people are seriously ill, even terminally ill, but they can still live for a long time. This is psychological balance, that is, the power of spirit, which can prolong life for patients, let alone normal people.
If the mind cannot keep balance, the body will naturally lose balance, so the balance of the body is based on psychological balance. Only by balancing body and mind can we keep healthy and stay away from diseases.
To keep a balanced mind, we must face the gains and losses, honor and disgrace of life correctly and underestimate the unhappiness that happens to us. Without troubles, there will naturally be no complaints, so as to find a psychological balance.
Buddhists pursue "all behaviors are impermanent, and all dharma nirvana is silent". In fact, this is also the pursuit of a state of mind, is the pursuit of external and internal self-balance. From this point, we can understand why monks live longer.
What you want is bitterness, what you want is not happiness, and you underestimate the gains and losses. Without the ups and downs of emotions, people's emotions will be much less and they can maintain a psychological balance. As long as you find inner balance, your mind will be balanced, your mind will be fine and your body will be healthy.
Balance life: a small reminder that physical and mental balance is a good medicine for health and longevity. As long as we pay attention to some details and maintain a comprehensive balance between body and mind, we can find the secret of balanced health.
