In winter, fear and stress are more likely to hurt the kidney, which is called "fear of hurting the kidney" by Chinese medicine. Fear and stress are taboos for nourishing the kidney, which can easily hide people's essence and cause fatigue, nocturnal emission, cold limbs, insomnia and other diseases.
Anger should also be avoided. Anger will not only hide the yang, but also easily lead to diseases such as tumors, because anger will produce many harmful hormones and toxins, such as norepinephrine, which can cause strong contraction of blood vessels and poor blood flow. Emma, an American physiologist, once did an experiment on the influence of emotional state on health: he inserted a glass tube into a container of ice-water mixture at 0℃ and injected "gas water" in different situations, that is, the water vapor exhaled by people in sadness, regret and anger and the water vapor exhaled in peace. The results show that when the water vapor exhaled by a person is calm and condensed into water, the water is clear and transparent, and contains no impurities. When you are sad, the exhaled water vapor condenses and has white precipitation; The vapor precipitate exhaled during regret is milky white; The "angry water" sediment exhaled when angry is purple. He injected the mouse with "water of anger", and a few minutes later, the mouse died. From this experiment, we can draw two conclusions: first, animals will secrete a lot of harmful hormones and toxins when they are slaughtered, so it is not recommended to eat too much meat; Second, being angry harms others and yourself, which not only harms others, but also does great harm to one's health. Therefore, anyone who is good at getting angry should always remind himself to "calm down".
The sunshine time in winter is short, the climate is cold and the sunshine is weak. Nature presents a bleak and bleak image, and melatonin secreted by the pineal gland increases greatly, which is easy to cause depression. So it is easy to suffer from winter depression in winter. The best way to prevent winter depression is to carry out self-psychological adjustment and have an optimistic and indifferent attitude. For those who like to dwell on the past, they should understand that the past, whether good or bad, can neither be reproduced nor made up for. "Now" is always the most important thing in life. If you indulge in the past, you will lose your present happiness. Our body is like a computer, and a positive attitude is like a set program, which determines the running track of this computer. A positive attitude is not only related to health, but also to family, career, happiness and even everything in life. So you should remind yourself every day: I am healthy! I am very happy! In this way, life will unconsciously get out of depression and become sunny and brilliant! Only by maintaining a positive and optimistic attitude can we stay away from all kinds of bad emotions. Take part in outdoor activities, such as morning exercises, mountain climbing, traveling, etc. , but also improve the mood. In addition, communicating with nature and talking with trees, mountains and the moon is also an excellent way to relieve psychological pressure for those who have no one to talk to. As the Canglang Pavilion couplets wrote, "The breeze and bright moon are priceless, and the moon is affectionate when you are close to the water." Some people in modern times are isolated from nature, with many psychological problems and many physical and mental diseases. Being integrated with nature can effectively relieve stress and experience many natural pleasures, which is an effective way to regulate body and mind.
