Birth, aging, illness and death are the objective laws of life, and no one can avoid them. Since ancient times, no one can escape this natural law. But from the perspective of health care, the elderly should never be psychologically afraid of being old. Although they are old, their hearts cannot always be the first key to health care for the elderly. Some elderly people are sick and afraid of cancer, and think that they have poor memory, forgetfulness, unstable walking, loss of appetite and poor sleep. They are old and inactive. This is an unhealthy mentality.
Spirit can become matter, spirit is not old, and body is not bad. As Samuel holman, an American life scientist, said, "Youth is not a sign of a certain period of life, but a psychological state that people should have." Since it is a state of the human body, it can also be said to be a spirit. "If we want to stay young forever, we must have a strong will, rich imagination and stirring enthusiasm, and we must also have the courage to overcome timidity and the desire to never compromise with difficulties and take risks. People will not rot because of the passage of time, but the extinction of the ideal fire is the beginning of the next year. " Therefore, "a man's youth is directly proportional to his beliefs, and his aging is directly proportional to his doubts." Whoever can maintain spiritual vitality and have a young mind will be full of youthful vitality and young physique.
People are mental animals, and the radicalization and decadence of mental state directly affect the changes of brain and organs. Enterprising and optimistic spirit can excite the central nervous system, improve digestion, absorption, secretion and excretion, promote metabolism and enhance human immune function, and aging will naturally be postponed. On the contrary, unhealthy mental factors such as excessive tension and depression not only promote people's aging, but also "push the hand of cancer".
Therefore, people are not afraid of being old, but they are afraid that they are old and old. The most prominent feature of the old heart is that it always misses its old age with the door closed all day. The more you think about it, the more depressed it becomes, so that people die before their hearts die.
An investigation team of gerontology once investigated hundreds of elderly people aged 80 ~ 100 in Yishou Township, Bama, Guangxi, and found that most people who live long are open-minded, carefree, cheerful and energetic, and there is no sign of aging in their twilight years. This is a sign of mental health, that is, the heart is not old. Most people in their 80 s are still farming and grazing, and they can also fetch water and firewood. Some centenarians can not only take care of themselves, but also cook and wash clothes.
In short, people should not be old when they are old. Don't be afraid of getting old. It is unhealthy to think that you are old every day. Should be refreshed, optimistic, and energetic, you can be physically and mentally healthy and prolong your life.
