With the improvement of living standards, modern people have a higher pursuit of life, among which how to reduce the occurrence of diseases, ensure good health, improve the quality of life and promote their own health and longevity is the wish of most people. Usually we call it keeping in good health.

Speaking of keeping in good health, I think of the ancient methods of keeping in good health that I know, and I have collected a wonderful knowledge to talk with you.

Since ancient times, people in China have always been very particular about keeping in good health. Let's take a look at what the ancients said about keeping in good health and pursuing longevity:

Confucius said in the Analects of Confucius: "Benevolent people live long, while virtuous people live long."

Sun Simiao, the king of medicine in the Tang Dynasty, said in his Thousand Golden Recipes: "A hundred lines of medicine are prepared every week, although there is no bait, which is enough for years. If virtue is not good, it is impossible to prolong life by taking Yuye elixir. " Hundreds of lines refer to all kinds of goodness. )

Gong Tingxian said in the Ming Dynasty: "Accumulate good deeds and make meritorious deeds, and always keep the virtue of yin, which can prolong life."

Did you get a look at him? The ancients paid attention to "morality" in health preservation. The "virtue" mentioned by the ancients refers to a person's psychological and spiritual behavior such as self-cultivation, morality and sentiment. To put it bluntly, the core of virtue is a person's inner thoughts. This should be what we often say about self-cultivation. We can also call him mental health. So what is mental health?

Mental health preservation is to keep a positive and sunny attitude in spirit, to ensure that people's body and mind are in a healthy state, so as to achieve the purpose of disease prevention, fitness and longevity. So, how to keep people's physical and mental health?

Kindness is the best nutrient for mental health, and tolerance is the regulator of mental health.

Kindness and tolerance is a good psychological morality, which not only includes understanding and tolerance, but also shows a person's tolerance and mind. When we can be aboveboard, of course, there will be no psychological burden, and of course we will rarely get sick.

Optimism is a panacea and pistachio for mental health. As the saying goes, "Smile, it's ten years old." Optimism can stimulate people's potential and give them confidence and courage to overcome difficulties. In this way, people can eliminate negative emotions such as disappointment, sadness, worry, sadness and sentimentality. People often feel comfortable, their appetite increases, and their metabolism is vigorous, which is conducive to promoting physical and mental health.

Indifference means indifference. Indifference makes people always in a peaceful state, so utilitarianism, jealousy and insidiousness, which are harmful to people's physical and mental health, are completely abandoned, which is conducive to prolonging life. Indifference is an immune agent for mental health.

If you want to live a long life, you must be confused. The ancients once said, "You are neither stupid nor deaf, nor a writer." When people reach a certain age, children have grown up. Don't care too much about children's mistakes and ways to deal with problems. Be open-minded. Some things need to be confused. This is not only used for dealing with family relationships, but also for dealing with interpersonal relationships.

There is a saying that contentment is happiness, and contentment is not greedy for enjoyment. Contentment means being generous, being indifferent, being able to look down on everything, and knowing how to choose before choosing. Contentment is not to stop and give up the ideal, but to have no excessive desire, to look down on wealth and material, to look down on fame and power. The content is broad, the content is broad, and at any time, anything can usually be picked up and put down.
