For natural life, physical health is not enough, and we can't ignore the role of emotions.
Zhong Nanshan said: I believe in one sentence, half of health is mental health, and half of disease is mental illness. A large number of clinical medical studies show that everything from colds to coronary heart disease and cancer is positively related to emotions and psychology.
From the perspective of TCM health culture, Huangdi Neijing also gives the answer. The reason why people get sick is nothing more than external evils and six evils, internal injuries and seven emotions, diet and daily life, and sports problems.
Exogenous six evils refer to six pathogenic factors in nature, such as wind-heat, summer-heat dampness and fire dryness. However, if the human body has strong resistance and can adjust its health state accordingly, it is possible to "avoid the wind due to deficiency", so that even if the six evils invade, it is not a minor illness and can completely heal itself.
The problem of diet, life and exercise refers to bad eating habits, bad living rules and bad exercise habits. We can completely correct and adjust this through human intervention. These are all visible behavior habits, which are easy to correct and minimize negative effects.
There are only seven emotions, and emotions are the most difficult for us to control. "Emotion, anxiety, sadness and fear" are entrenched in our minds/subconscious, and they are influencing our behavior all the time. It is unpredictable and changeable.
Therefore, it can be said that the biggest secret of longevity lies in "emotion". People may have great differences in living habits, but emotionally, most of them have similar cores.
Some people have good living habits and regular life, but they hide their negative emotions and fail to guide them correctly in time, which leads to the deterioration of their physical condition and many adverse effects on their health. Compared with other people with bad living habits, their life expectancy is not dominant, and even examples of premature death are heard from time to time.
Because all grievances, entanglements, anger and depression are an immune storm.
It is a psychological portrayal of most people to put on a mask of laughter and hide all negative emotions in their hearts, but in fact, we don't have to be masked people.
In the field of modern medical experience, there are many sudden diseases, and they don't know the specific causes. But modern people are more and more prone to all kinds of diseases. Is it because they don't pay attention to health?
Not exactly.
On the contrary, many people care about health, but don't want it. Take the body as a machine in the way of western mechanism. Repair it if it is broken, and replace it if it can't be repaired. But they forget that people are creatures, and treatment and maintenance are two different things, and body, mind and spirit are one.
Humans are used to expressing positive emotions, while negative emotions such as sadness and fear are suppressed. Grievances, grievances and pressures have accumulated in the body for many years. When it reaches the critical point, the immune storm can take people's lives.
When there are psychological problems, more than 70% people will digest their emotions by attacking their body immunity, which is one of the biggest reasons for the symptoms.
When we are about to get sick and feel unwell, we often subconsciously think: Is there something wrong with our bodies? But in fact, constant negative emotions are behind the scenes.
Never ignore the huge wounds hidden at the bottom of emotions.
We often hear people complain or vomit: I am so angry and stressed. Why? This is the negative emotion at work.
Many diseases are caused by our own emotions, even if we temporarily control them with various drugs; But when our emotions come up again, our health will gradually drift away.
The body will not refuse, it faithfully helps us to store all emotions. Being sick reminds us to properly handle emotional problems, and the body's endurance has reached its limit. Sub-health problems should not only pay attention to the body, but also find the knot.
