Be a person who is not trapped by troubles.
It's hard to believe that Benchang You is 77 years old. He is as thin as a young man, with neat legs and feet. There is not even an age spot on his smooth skin, and there are no wrinkles as deep as other old people's knives. He was 52 when he played Jigong. Although I have reached the age of knowing my destiny, I am as confused as everyone else. It was his fate to meet Jigong, because from Jigong, he got the greatest inspiration in life: "Anyone who wants to live a life without troubles must learn from Jigong. What is optimism? Optimism means that the heart is happy and comfortable at any time and anywhere, and there is nothing to worry about. 」
Before filming Jigong, he went to the temple for advice. "The biggest feeling is to understand what is an enlightened person and what is a wise man. Why is' helping the public' not called' helping the private'? Public and private are the watershed between consciousness and unconsciousness. Caring about your private affairs every day is not a smart person. Jigong's "wine and meat penetrate the intestines" is not bound by some rules and regulations, which shows that his heart is free, so no matter what he eats, there is no difference. Modern people are trapped by fame and fortune because they care too much about their own interests and can't let go of too many things. 」
Knowing this, his eyes suddenly widened, and during the filming, he gradually felt the change of his mood. "I used to get angry when others looked at me. Even others wear hats when they go to the streets in winter, but I don't, and it makes me uncomfortable to look at them. But when filming, how do you feel more and more smooth and lucky? It was summer, and the temperature was 39 degrees Celsius. It was very hard to shoot, but it was cloudy and cold when I came to shoot in the afternoon. It's rainy in Hangzhou, sometimes it's cloudy, and it doesn't rain until we finish shooting. By train, the person in front couldn't buy a ticket, and he just came to me to refund the ticket ... "The happiness in life became more and more, and he suddenly realized that this was called the situation. Maybe life is so happy, but he didn't realize it before and didn't find it.
Don't take illness as a burden.
Now, looking at healthy and happy Benchang You, who would have thought that he was once an "old patient"? In his own words, "when you enter the hospital, you can apply for anything except gynecology and pediatrics." Chronic gastritis, arthritis, neurasthenia, chronic rhinitis, pharyngitis, laryngitis ... he has everything. Who would have thought that the older he is, the healthier he will be, and he will live to 77 years old without illness or disaster, so that "there is no medicine to be reimbursed for a long time now." 」
In his opinion, if you are sick, don't take it as a burden. A good attitude is very important for recovery. "Everyone has pathogenic factors. Just as light and darkness are opposites, health and disease are opposites and can be transformed into each other. So the key is how to adjust and make sick people become healthy people. 」
"Tell you a typical example, that is, how I deal with insomnia." Benchang You has suffered from neurasthenia since he was in his twenties. In the entertainment circle, he has seen too many people who have been tortured by neurasthenia all their lives. They can't play, everything is postponed. What they worry about every day is whether they can sleep at night. "I summed up that the key to insomnia lies in the word' fear'. People are always worried that' it will be dawn in four hours, and there are still three hours ... if I have to go to work tomorrow morning, what should I do? If he doesn't want to be afraid, he forces himself to form an idea that lying is rest. Lying is better than sitting, and sitting is better than standing. If you can't sleep, just lie quietly, even if you sleep for 4 hours. "Even if you stay up all night, you have to go to work the next day. what can I do? Can I die? Like Jigong, he put his face in front of the reporter and asked with a serious smile. " This is what Jigong said: the heart governs everything. Let go of insomnia, don't cling to it, you can fall asleep without taking sleeping pills. 」
Invented "swimming fitness"
Benchang You always said, "I am a person who never keeps in good health. Because in his view, people live to do what they want to do. If they don't just live leisurely, such health care is meaningless. For him, the goal of fitness and health preservation is clear, so that this trick can be played all the time, which requires physical obedience and self-control. At the end of last year, at the age of 77, he made five films in three months, which benefited from his fitness style of "continuous exercise". He entered Shanghai Theatre Academy from 19 years old until today. In the past 60 years, it has become a must for him to cheat, hold his legs and touch the ground every day. " It's hard not to do it. "At some point, he suddenly raised his leg, made a beautiful big split, and raised his leg to his ear, which made people admire and marvel at the 77-year-old man.
In addition to exercising, rubbing the whole body from top to bottom every day is also a compulsory course for him. He named this set of movements "Swimming for Fitness". "The key is to move every skin and joint from head to toe. No matter what method you use, you can rub, knead, pinch, pat, or take a dry bath like a bath. Rub it if you feel uncomfortable, but you must stick to it every day. Arthritis and chronic rhinitis are old problems of Benchang You, so his daily concern is: 1. Use your hands alternately to make the back of your hand 30-40 times until it burns. 2.*** Xiang Ying points are located on both sides of nose (eyes are straight up, eyes are straight down, and thumb is about 1/2 wide on both sides of nostril), which is beneficial to the prevention and treatment of chronic rhinitis. 3.*** Face, starting from the face, rub it slightly with your hands until it is a little hot, and then gently press the acupuncture points around your eyes with your fingers until you feel slightly sour and numb, each time about *** 1 minute. 4. Push your hands up and down, relax and stretch, and try to move your joints and bones.
"As an actor, if you are 80 years old, you can still act. This is happiness. " This is the biggest motivation for Benchang You to pursue health.
