Calligraphy is a traditional art in China. Because Chinese characters originated from hieroglyphics, which are described by objects existing in nature, calligraphy and painting are homologous. Calligraphy and painting are both plastic arts, and both vividly express the artistic ideas in the creator's heart with the pen in their hands. Engaging in painting and calligraphy creation is not only an artistic enjoyment, but also a good way to keep fit.

Calligraphy and painting is a creative activity. In artistic conception, the emphasis is on "adjusting one's mood, eliminating other thoughts and unifying all spirits". The creator must correct his posture, adjust his breathing, close his eyes, examine himself, control his feelings, concentrate his consciousness on one point and enter the realm of artistic creation where all thoughts are empty. Modern medicine believes that in this state, people's physiological response has four characteristics: the cerebral cortex is stable; The energy consumption is reduced; Lactic acid in the blood (a fatigue element in the human body) is reduced; Calm and sober. This state is a good nourishing process.

Not only wrist strength, arm strength and finger strength can be fully exercised, but also many good sitting and standing exercises can also play a good role in exercising the waist and legs. Fully exercising wrists and fingers can strengthen the brain, and exercising waist and legs can reduce waist and leg diseases, delay aging and benefit people's health and longevity.
