Four cornerstones of health

Do you know what this is?

Traditional Chinese medicine has always attached importance to sleep and health preservation, believing that "sleeping and eating are important tasks of health preservation" and "those who can sleep and eat can live forever". Li Yu, a physician in the Qing Dynasty, once pointed out: "The key to keeping in good health lies in sleep. Sleep can be refined, sleep can nourish qi, sleep can strengthen the spleen and stomach, and sleep can strengthen bones and muscles. "

Sleep should be "falling asleep on time, not waiting for obsolescence."

Taking a nap for a quarter of an hour can make up for an hour in the evening.

Body and brain are used together, form and spirit are together, and god is the rule. "

It is suggested to sleep at midnight (9: 00 ~ 1 1: 00) and midnight (11:00). Chinese medicine believes that when Yin Qi is strong, you will fall asleep, and when Yang Qi is strong, you will wake up. When the child is weak in yang and full in yin, sleeping at this time can nourish yin and improve the quality of sleep. Getting up at 7 am is helpful to the development of poplar. If you go to bed late the night before, you should get up before 7: 00 in the morning and take a nap during the day. It is very important to improve the resistance to diseases.

9 pm to 3 am is the best time to nourish the liver and protect the gallbladder. 65438+ 0 -3 am, the liver meridian is the most prosperous. Huangdi Neijing says that "blood belongs to the liver when people lie down", and the best time for nourishing blood and producing blood in the liver is 2 1 to 3 am. If people stay up until 1 o every day, the liver can't get back blood, toxic blood can't be discharged, fresh blood can't be born, and human viscera can't be nourished by qi and blood, which is very easy to get out of balance and cause disease.

The early symptoms of staying up late are black eyes, dry eyes, fatigue, sunken eyes, dizziness, headache, mental fatigue, inattention, and even serious visceral disorders and various diseases.
