Why does meditation have the effect of getting rid of diseases?
Do you know what is the most sought after fitness method now? Yoga, jogging, Latin dance, or aerobic exercise? No, it's meditation. Yes, it's sitting cross-legged, or sitting in a chair, with your legs drooping naturally. This "sit-in fever" swept the United States, Britain and other countries and regions. Hillary, Al Gore and NBA Lakers coach Jackson are all sit-in enthusiasts. Although it is difficult to use your fitness card so many times until it expires, you always believe that life lies in exercise. Of course, this is true and quite correct. However, in addition to sweating and rapid heartbeat, sometimes meditation is also a very beneficial exercise for physical and mental health. In America, meditation has become a very fashionable way of life. No matter government agencies, companies, schools, airports and prisons, meditation rooms have been set up. It is said that some schools have greatly reduced campus violence because they advocate sit-in demonstrations. Hospitals have also begun to offer sit-in courses to help patients relieve pain. In Britain, the charm of sitting still makes many people unable to refuse. Everyone opened up a world at home and sat quietly for a period of time every day. They think that while exercising, sitting still can make your attention more concentrated and your heart more peaceful. Sit quietly and get healthy quietly. We all work hard in the workplace, Du Lala. Every day is like a clockwork alarm clock, exhausted in one meeting after another, one email after another, and one PPT after another. Low back pain, nervousness and anxiety, dull complexion, dark circles that can't be covered by thick foundation … all inevitably become our close comrades. Meditation can not only improve immunity and relieve anxiety, but also achieve the goal of beautifying skin and slimming. If you don't have time to spend 1 hour in the gym every day, take at least 10 ~ 20 minutes to practice meditation! 1. Relieve stress and improve happiness. A medical professor at Harvard University said that practicing meditation can reduce muscle tension and serum lactic acid content. The test shows that practicing meditation for 20 minutes every day for a week can improve the ability of attention and emotional control, while the negative emotions such as anxiety, depression and anger are obviously reduced. Moreover, meditation training can dredge the blood circulation in the brain, and make the brain's reaction change from "confrontation or escape" to "acceptance of reality", thus improving a person's happiness. 2. After protecting the liver, will you choose to take a nap or go out for a walk immediately? In fact, it is best to sit still for about half an hour before doing other things, which is necessary for liver maintenance. After eating, people concentrate their blood on the digestive tract to participate in the digestion of food. When the body changes from lying flat to standing, the blood flowing into the liver will be reduced by 30%. If we go further, the blood flowing into the liver will continue to decrease. If the liver is in a state of insufficient blood supply, its normal metabolic activity will be affected. So, sit still after meals, close your eyes 10 ~ 30 minutes, let the blood flow to the liver as much as possible, and provide oxygen and nutrition to the liver cells. 3. Precipitate appetite and control weight. The fast-paced city life makes us not only have to hurry, but also make a quick decision at work and lunch, just like fighting a war. Once we have time to rest, we are prone to overeating and lead to obesity. In fact, overeating is the behavior caused by stress. When you urgently need food to release stress, you might as well "sit still" to relieve stress, relax your body and mind, and let the idea of "having a full meal" settle down before eating, which will help slow down the speed of eating. When you eat your food slowly, your appetite will gradually decrease, and you can say goodbye to the "bucket waist" easily. 4. Lower blood pressure and stay away from cardiovascular diseases. The United States once conducted a sit-in intervention treatment for a group of patients with hypertension. The results showed that the patients' systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure were reduced by 4.7 mm/Hg and 3.2 mm/Hg, respectively. It can be seen that meditation is very effective in lowering blood pressure, which can greatly reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases such as atherosclerosis, and will not produce side effects of drugs. Some people say that "sitting in an office is like gasoline, which is the source of energy". Working in the company for 8 hours a day, lunch break is very important. You might as well take 10 minutes every day and sit quietly. Maybe you will have unexpected gains. 1. Adjust the seat to a proper height, and lean your hips against the back of the chair. 2. Stretch your feet forward slightly, beyond your knees. 3. Palm up and put it on your thigh. 4. Keep your head upright naturally to avoid stiffness. 5. Relax your shoulders and don't shrug. 6. Close your eyes, spit out the dirty air, close your lips and put your tongue against your palate. 7. Inhale and exhale slowly, and keep your breathing slender and deep.
