Original text and translation of Su Shi's health preservation

Su Shi's original text: Dongpo lay man has passed now, but he has only one skill and one meat. Respect guests, wealth is the third, but the loss is not increased. Someone told me to hold it first, and the master stopped until he made a mistake. On the one hand, rest happiness, on the one hand, expand stomach and nourish qi, on the other hand, save money and raise wealth.

I heard that the Warring States policy has one side and my service has been effective, so I will pass it on.

Its medicine has only four flavors:

On the one hand, nothing is precious, on the other hand, going to bed early is rich.

On the third day, walk slowly to make a car, and on the fourth night, eat meat.

My husband is hungry, vegetables are too precious, but I'm full, and I'm afraid I can't hold on. If it is good for the poor, it is not good for the Tao. Relax, eating late is beautiful, just like cars and meat. The car and meat are still in the chest, so there is this saying. (Excerpted from Dongpo Zhi Lin, Zhonghua Book Company, 2007)

Dongpo lay man (I) from now on, (every meal) does not exceed a jue wine, a kind of meat. With distinguished guests, the rich diet will triple, which can be reduced, but not increased. Invite my friend to dinner and tell him this standard in advance. If the host doesn't exceed this standard, (I) will stop him. One is to keep one's duty and nourish the blessings, the other is to relax the stomach and nourish the spirit of Taoism, and the third is to save money to support the family.

I heard that there was a prescription in the Warring States period, and I used it very effectively, so I respectfully submit it to you. This recipe has only four flavors: first, it is safe as a powerful person, second, it is rich and early, third, it is slow as a chariot and horse, and fourth, it is delicious to postpone eating. Eat when you are hungry. Vegetables are more delicious than food. After eating, even if the delicious meat is in front of you, I hope to get rid of it early. It can be said that it is good at coping with poverty, but it is not just a way to keep fit. Walk slowly to make yourself comfortable, postpone eating and enjoy the food. Is it necessary to treat it as a food for horses and chariots? The food of horses and chariots is in the chest, so there will be such a scenery.
