Laughter is always open, dispersing lung meridian.

There is a saying in Chinese medicine called "Laugh often and open your lungs". Modern medical research has also proved that laughter is indeed the best "exercise" for the body, and different degrees of laughter have appropriate coordination effects on respiratory organs, chest, abdomen, internal organs, muscles and other organs. Especially for the respiratory system, laughter can dilate the lungs, and people will unconsciously take a deep breath to clean the respiratory tract and make breathing smooth. In addition, when people laugh, they can absorb more oxygen into the body. With the blood flowing smoothly all over the body, every cell in the body can get enough oxygen.

Tips: Although laughter can cure diseases and strengthen the body, it must be moderate, especially for patients with hypertension, arteriosclerosis and postoperative patients. Pregnant women should not laugh often, so as not to cause severe abdominal convulsions and lead to premature delivery or abortion.

3 Breathing and clearing lung

Moderate breathing helps to clear the lungs. There are two relatively simple ways to breathe and clear the lungs:

Abdominal breathing: stretch your arms, expand your chest as much as possible, and then breathe through your abdomen. The purpose of this breathing method is to increase lung capacity, especially for patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and emphysema.

Breathing with contracted lips: take a quick breath and "blow" it out slowly like whistling when exhaling. The purpose is to make the air stay in the lungs for a longer time and make the gas exchange in the lungs more adequate. Patients with bronchitis can often do it.

It is best to practice the above breathing methods in one group every morning and evening, and the number of times in each group can be measured.
