In ancient China, many famous people, whether thinkers, writers, educators or doctors, all lived to be sixty or seventy years old, or even eighty or ninety years old. In their own life, experience and practice, they have explored many methods of health preservation, which are still a good reference for our future generations today. How to sleep: Lu You, a famous writer, historian and patriotic poet in the Southern Song Dynasty, died at the age of 85. He left more than 9000 poems for later generations in his life. His regimen is to pay attention to sleep. When he studies at night, he usually looks at his watch for the second time (about 10pm) as the latest limit. Sleep is the need of life and the best way to eliminate physical fatigue and mental fatigue. Often staying up late will not only lead to immune dysfunction, memory loss, slow response, forgetfulness, dizziness, headache and other symptoms, but also may lead to high blood pressure or sudden death in severe cases. * * * Method: Su Shi, one of the "Eight Masters of Tang and Song Dynasties", a famous writer in the Northern Song Dynasty, strongly advocated the * * * method of health preservation. He once built a "Yixixuan" in Dan County, Guangdong Province, and wrote a poem: "Nothing is like this * * *, and one day seems to be two days; To live for seventy years is one hundred and forty. " The * * * method requires correct sitting posture, tight eyes, concentration and calmness, and the intention is to stay in the abdomen. Every time * * * time can be about 15 minutes to half an hour, which is a good way for people to continue to rest after using their heads. Walking method: Tao Hongjing, a famous medical scientist, health care scientist and writer in the Southern Dynasties, once said, "You don't have to sit or lie down when you are full. If you want to go, you have to go." Walk slowly. The elderly and infirm may wish to bring crutches and stop to have a rest if necessary. Walking is the simplest, most economical and most effective method for preventing and treating diseases and strengthening the body, and it is also the most widely known exercise mode. It can also be used for adjuvant treatment of osteoporosis, cervical and lumbar spondylosis, obesity, hyperglycemia, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, coronary heart disease, arteriosclerosis, apoplexy sequelae, neurasthenia, depression, constipation, and hypoimmunity. Bathing method: Shen Kuo, a politician and scientist in the Northern Song Dynasty, once said: "Wash clothes frequently, smell incense, and return to the original state ... then God will get peace and win." "Book of Rites" also put forward the requirement of "three days with bath and five days with staff". Regular bathing can not only remove dirt, secretions and dandruff on the skin surface, but also improve the blood circulation of skin and muscles, and play a role in eliminating fatigue and bodybuilding. Leisure appreciation method: Gao Lian, a famous drama writer and health care scientist in the Ming Dynasty, once wrote Eight Notes on Respect for Life, and Yan Xianqing, one of the eight notes, is an important part of literati's health care. After reading and writing, planting flowers and grass in the garden, feeding birds and raising fish, fresh air and elegant environment can cultivate people's interest and effectively coordinate the pace of life. Poetry-chanting method: Lu Youshi said: "I helped an old Hou Xi and told him that the wind had not healed for a long time;" "I don't need to ask more heroes, but I woke up after reading my poem. Reciting a good poem can not only bring beautiful enjoyment to people's hearing organs, but also produce great psychological effects through people's thoughts and feelings, or purify the mind, or save the body with inspiration, or make people feel happy or forget the pain, which is very beneficial to people's physical and mental health. Escape method: Mr. Dongpo said: "Mountains and rivers are affectionate and impermanent, and idlers are teachers. "China has beautiful mountains and rivers and a vast territory. The ancients have long said "spring outing and autumn outing". Devote yourself to nature, explore wonders and indulge in famous mountains, rivers and lakes, which can make people relaxed and happy, and fatigue and depression will naturally disappear. Sleeping and swimming: Ni Zan, a famous poet and painter at the end of Yuan Dynasty, wrote in An Interview with Gu Zhongzhi: "Take a chrysanthemum bed as a sacrifice and mountains and rivers as a sleeping and swimming. "The viewer enjoys the scenery in the tour, thus gradually forgetting the illness. Once a person is old and weak, the feeling that he is willing to do more than he can do is revealed. At this time, he may never go out to enjoy the famous mountains and rivers again. However, if you hang many beautiful scenery on the wall of your room, you can lie down and enjoy them even if you don't leave home.
