Why is it important to go to bed early and get up early?
Because going to bed early and getting up early is the foundation of a person's health. Traditional Chinese medicine meridian health theory says that the human body has 12 meridians, and each meridian has its own running time.
We usually get into the habit of going to bed early and getting up early from five to ten. In fact, "five to ten" is an interval concept and refers to a time period.
Why this time?
Next, I will take you to find out!
Please look at the illustration above. Shi Mao is from five to seven in the morning, which is the season of large intestine meridian ("season" means on duty). At this time, the sky is basically bright, the Tianmen is open, and it is normal to wake up at five o'clock. At this time, it is necessary to defecate normally, discharge garbage toxins, and develop a healthy habit of defecating early.
At 2 1-23:00 in the evening, it is Shihai, and the triple energizer meridian is in season (triple energizer refers to the omentum-like area connecting the internal organs). The triple energizer must be unobstructed, or you will get sick.
In addition, the zodiac of Shihai is a pig. Pigs purr to sleep when they are full. So we will have a rest in the sea, let the body and soul be immersed in the warm darkness, and let life and body cycle in the rest.
Of course, this is also affected by the time zone, which is not the same. For example, in Xinjiang, it's 7: 00 a.m. to 12, and we have a two-hour time difference with the coastal areas. You can make corresponding adjustments.
Having said so much about meridian health, I wonder if you can really understand it?
In fact, going to bed early and getting up early is not only for health, but also for the day. Huangdi Neijing also mentioned that there are four seasons in a year and four seasons in a day. Twenty-four solar terms in twelve months a year; There are twelve hours and twenty-four hours in a day. One day is a year's concentration. Therefore, the rhythm of people's daily life should be consistent with the changes of "spring, summer, autumn and winter".
9 pm to 3 am is a winter day, called Sunday winter;
3 am to 9 am is the spring of the day, called Richun;
We can also see the necessity of speaking early and getting up early from the four seasons.
Of course, this is just a simple popularization for everyone. Those who know more can pay attention to the last egg ~
I don't know if you have noticed, but early to bed and early to rise. It can be seen from this order that only going to bed early can guarantee getting up early.
The night system mentioned in the rambling life time management system I recently studied is very valuable. The time management course "Life Without Borders" is the most systematic and comprehensive course I have ever studied, whether it is paid or free, and it is completely free.
Through life, we need to sort out the correct golden thinking and do the right thing at the right time. Night is the time to rest and sleep, and morning is the time to learn fitness. Coupled with the contents of meridian health care mentioned above, we should pay more attention to doing relaxing things at night to relax our body and mind.
We have warm and comfortable bedtime rituals. Since we were disconnected from the Internet, we have been focusing on our bedtime rituals. According to the links and standards of bedtime rituals set by yourself, it can not only help you meditate, but also help you sleep healthily. With going to bed early, getting up early will naturally form a habit.
It is not easy to form the habit of going to bed early and getting up early. Why did I tell you so much about the importance of going to bed early and getting up early from the beginning? Combining meridian health preservation with Huangdi Neijing is to let everyone know the theoretical level first. When you really realize that this good habit will bring you endless benefits, you will put it into practice! Develop the right golden thinking and do the right thing at the right time.
Watching the news every day can see that many young people suffer from premature ejaculation or cancer because they don't care much about their health. These problems have actually existed in your body for a long time. We can't wait until cancer happens to remember how to treat it. But to manage your health in advance and be responsible for your body.
In the morning system of life, there is a magical domino wake-up ceremony, which I like very much. It is to determine every link from the time you get up early, and then practice deliberately every day according to this determined link. Slowly, you will get up early effortlessly, and everything will be as smooth and natural as dominoes.
What do you do after getting up? !
This is another reason why many people can't get out of bed. Many people are confused and don't know what to do early.
Actually, getting up early can do a lot of things. You can read books, learn English or take various online courses. It has been almost two months since I participated in the morning study room of Walking Life. In these two months, I have learned nearly half of the courses of walking life, drawn a mind map and completed the homework of deep reflection.
You must not ignore the 25-minute tomato clock every day. During this time, everyone studied together and made progress together. Teacher Li Xiaolai said, don't ignore the power of compound interest. I want to say, don't ignore the power of compound interest in time, it is also endless.
25 minutes a day is the time when you are completely undisturbed. You can learn anything you want. I won't be too tired to work late and have no energy to study. The morning study room lets you say goodbye to procrastination and giving up halfway. Learning is a happy thing, and it is a happy thing for everyone to study together.
Get up early on weekends, and you will find that you have so much free time in a day. You can climb mountains and go outdoors. It's so pleasant and beautiful. Many of my photos were taken when I went hiking and walking in the morning. Not only are there few people, but the scenery is also beautiful. You will find the beauty of the morning everywhere.
Go home after exercise and have a big breakfast. Do you think this weekend is not enviable and desirable?
In the next article, I will share with you my own breakfast action guide that I have practiced for many years, so that you can not only make a hearty breakfast, but also have fun.
The Origin of Four Seasons in One Day —— Excerpted from Huangdi Neijing
There are four seasons in a year and four seasons in a day. Twenty-four solar terms in twelve months a year; There are twelve hours and twenty-four hours in a day. One day is a year's concentration. Therefore, the rhythm of people's daily life should be consistent with the changes of "spring, summer, autumn and winter".
9 pm to 3 am is a winter day, called Sunday winter;
3 am to 9 am is the spring of the day, called Richun;
9 am to 3 pm is a day of summer, called the sun;
From 3 pm to 9 pm is an autumn day, called Riqiu.
"Spring is born, summer is long, autumn harvest, winter storage". Only according to the four seasons of heaven and earth can we live a long and healthy life. Beginning of winter at 9 o'clock in the evening at 9 o'clock in the evening, heaven and earth fell asleep. People don't sleep, just like people are tug of war with heaven and earth. "Man's strength is not as good as that of nature", and the result of "tug of war" is that nature will win. The rhythm of human body changes is consistent with the rhythm of heaven and earth, so as to "borrow the power of heaven to return manpower"
Sleeping after 23 o'clock at night makes me feel cold physically and mentally, which means that "Yang does not live in Yang" and the cold enters the room. 20 o'clock is the day of "first frost", and "frost beating eggplant" describes the situation that plants suffer frost in late autumn. Sleeping before or after this makes me feel very different.
Go to bed early to "nourish yang" and sleep late to "typhoid fever". In ancient times, it was 19 to go to bed early and 2 1 to go to bed late. Most long-lived old people in the world have the habit of going to bed early. There are two situations when you go to bed too late at night: one is that you can't sleep at night, and the other is that you don't sleep when you are sleepy. Can't sleep is the time when the sun be the spirit should be collected.
Autumn is the main harvest, and it is autumn from 3 pm to 9 pm. People should gradually enter the state of harvest. "The yang is full of eyes, and the yin is full of eyes." If you do something exciting at night, the yang will not come back, and it will be difficult to sleep if the yin can't dominate.
The second situation is to stay awake, which is a deviation of ideas. I don't know the truth of day and night, and I don't know how to conform to the laws of nature.
Sleeping too late at night will hurt your courage. In severe cases, people will suffer from depression. Huangdi Neijing said: "Qi encourages courage." "Eleven collectors rely on courage." 23:00- 1:00, the gallbladder meridian is the most prosperous. People accumulate bile during sleep, and bile needs metabolism. When people fall asleep in childhood, bile can complete metabolism.
Not sleeping will consume bile, and in severe cases, it will produce "fear", which is what modern medicine calls depression. 1: 00-3: 0 is ugly, and the liver meridian is the most prosperous. Need deep sleep! This is the best time for liver repair. Waste blood needs to be eliminated, and fresh blood needs to be produced, all of which must be done in an ugly time.
At this point, you must go into a deep sleep state and let the liver get enough energy. If you don't fall asleep, the liver is still outputting energy to support people's thinking and action, so you can't complete metabolism and get liver disease easily.
9 pm to 3 am is the best time for people to sleep. Sleep in other time periods can hardly replace "day and winter".
Get up in time. At 3 am, it is "beginning of spring" and at 6 am, it is "vernal equinox". Take the initiative in spring. At the beginning of spring, when the wind blows the tree, it flows like a well and injects nutrients into the tree. After the vernal equinox, warm air came, and the buds appeared overnight. People and plants are creatures, and they all have the same sense of nature.
Heaven and earth wake up at 3 o'clock, and the cells of human body wake up under the induction of this time and space. In ancient times, it was 3 o'clock to get up early and 5 o'clock to get up late. 5 o'clock is a day of "shock", the body and mind are awakened, and the qi and blood are accelerated, which is conducive to the promotion of yang. If you continue to lie in bed, it will oppress your pulse and make your blood stay. So I don't get up when I'm in the shade, and I'm sad and weak, which means that acid is already corroding the viscera.
You don't need to sleep when you wake up from three to five every day, but sometimes you will get more and more tired when you sleep. People who wake up in the morning and don't get up are just like "tug of war". People can't pull out heaven and earth. If you don't get up before 5 o'clock, you won't be able to get out at 6 o'clock in the vernal equinox, and you will lose mentally. In particular, many people like to stay in bed and watch TV after getting up on weekends. If they are sleepy, they will continue to sleep, and they will only become more and more sleepy and have no spirit.
The above is the wisdom I want to share with you today about going to bed early and getting up early.
