Mental health preservation method refers to purifying people's spiritual world, automatically eliminating greed, changing bad personality, correcting wrong cognitive process, adjusting emotions, making their mentality peaceful, optimistic, cheerful and open-minded, so as to achieve the goal of health and longevity. Mental health preservation method is equivalent to the mental health care method of modern medicine.
The key to mental health is happiness, which makes people's minds in a state of peace and contentment. Simply put, it is a happy life.
Now experts' definition of health is not limited to physical health, mental health is equally important, and mental health will also affect physical health.
Like quitting smoking, mental regimen is the easiest and most difficult regimen. The reason why it is the easiest is that mental health preservation can be completely dominated by people's subjective consciousness without special external auxiliary conditions; The most difficult thing is that it is difficult for a person to grasp himself and correct his inherent wrong way of thinking, and it is even more difficult to rule out the negative interference of objective things on his subjective consciousness.
Ancient sages often put self-cultivation in the first place and summarized many methods of spiritual health preservation:
Sit-in: Let the body and mind be in a state of relaxation, and with Buddhist scriptures or soothing music, let people enter a state of ecstasy.
Reading: Reading can not only enrich people, but also cultivate self-cultivation and make you more open-minded.
Feel the nature: in your spare time, go for a walk in nature, breathe fresh air, release pressure and liberate your mind.
Party: communicate with friends more and share happiness and troubles.
Educate future generations and students: Teachers are more responsible and pay more attention to introspection.
The ancients also summarized ten pleasures of self-cultivation: talking about righteousness, learning calligraphy, sitting quietly, making friends and talking, drinking half drunk, watering flowers and planting bamboo, listening to the piano and playing cranes, burning incense and frying tea, and going to the city to see the mountains, that is, playing chess.
The ancient method of nourishing the heart is still worth learning. Of course, the current urban rhythm makes it difficult for us to live like the ancients, but learning its essence and understanding its spirit are still very helpful to our health.
