1 pure air
Go out for fresh air every day, whether it is sunny or rainy. Consciously apply this method to daily life: when going to the store, replace the car with footsteps; When inviting friends for a walk, don't sit down and drink coffee as soon as you meet them; Hanging clothes outside not only exercises the body, saves electricity, but also feels the freshness of clothes; Leave the city at the first opportunity to breathe fresh air; Open the window every day to keep the indoor air circulating for at least one hour, and winter is no exception. Cool air is much better than suffocating heating.
2 sunshine
Remember, make full use of the existing natural medical and health means, and sunshine is naturally one of them. Sunlight helps to increase human nutrition and energy. It creates the necessary ecological environment for our survival: oxygen and carbon dioxide. It regulates the temperature and humidity to the extent required by life. The human body needs about 400 units of vitamin D every day. Bathe in the sun 15 minutes, and you will get more vitamin D than you need in a day. Vitamin D plus proper calcium and phosphorus can make people's bones tall and strong. Of course, as we all know, excessive sunlight is also harmful. So sunbathing should be moderate. Nevertheless, be sure to get some sunshine every day.
3 moderate
Don't indulge in only one thing, which means not only drinking, but also avoiding overdoing everything. Think about it. As soon as some people hear that they are going to exercise, they go out and run until they are exhausted. They really became runners. Some people go on a diet so hard that they get anorexia. The food they eat is so healthy that they dare not even eat it in other people's homes. Don't overdo it, don't go to extremes. Remember this principle: it is beneficial to be moderate; Harmful things should be given up.
4 rest
The body and brain can only work better after adequate rest. Therefore, to ensure adequate sleep every night, at least one day a week to engage in leisure activities. Everyone needs to temporarily avoid paid or unpaid work anywhere. On the rest day, you can travel with your family or relax near home, or you can sit on the sofa all day reading or do other things that are conducive to rest. If you are cultured, use this time to think about spiritual practice or read some articles with spiritual enlightenment. If you want to live a more balanced life, you must adhere to the principle of rest. Otherwise, it's not worth the loss. I've been running around day and night, and I finally got a two-week holiday, but I'm too tired to move.
The digestive system also needs time to rest. It usually takes five hours to fully digest food. Therefore, some health advocates believe that it is not appropriate to add meals between meals, which will make the digestive system have no chance to rest. Because all organs of the human body, whether visible or invisible, need rest. Between meals, you can drink drinks or tea if necessary. After 5 hours, have a full meal and eat a rich natural food. Chew slowly for an hour, and then let the digestive system rest. Drink some water or tea in the evening, or eat some digestible snacks.
Not only the internal organs of the body need rest, but also the whole body needs rest. Sleeping every hour before midnight is generally much more efficient than sleeping after midnight, so going to bed early and getting up early is good for your health. Try it for a while and see if this sleeping arrangement is better.
In short, eat a full meal as soon as you get up, and then eat again every at least 5 hours to ensure adequate sleep. Think of nature as your personal trainer and epidemic prevention doctor. This service is free.
5 sports
Exercise in fresh air helps to expel all kinds of toxins and wastes from the body. Go out for activities every morning and find a sport that suits you, such as walking or riding a bike to the store.
6 water
Water is cheap, so you can drink as much as you want. In order to clean the digestive system, drink at least 8~ 10 glass of water between meals. Stomach acid helps digestion. We should regard water not only as a clean thing for the body, but also as a tonic. Therefore, take a warm bath regularly, and then gradually transition to a cold bath, which will open your pores, make cells active and keep moving.
Water is also a natural medicine to treat various diseases. In the doctor's words, it is "hydrotherapy". Here is an example of hydrotherapy. The next time you have a headache, you don't have to open the lid of the aspirin bottle. Headache is caused by dilation of blood vessels in the head, and the pressure caused by dilation is the cause of pain. Put your feet in a bucket of hot water as long as the temperature is tolerable. This reflex can constrict the blood vessels in the head, and then apply cold compress to the head to help the blood flow to the hands and feet, thus leaving the head-which also promotes the contraction of blood vessels. Hot weather, scalding feet to contract blood vessels, scalp therapy and cold compress to drive away blood, heat to gather blood and cold to disperse blood-this is a reflective relationship.
7 nutrition
The degree of health varies with the substances absorbed in the body. According to the latest medical data, most diseases that plague modern people, such as heart disease, hypertension, some cancers and paralytic stroke, are mainly caused by unreasonable diet. The nutrition of all cells and tissues in the human body is supplied by the food we eat. The best way to take care of your health is to adopt the simplest and cheapest diet. These foods include all kinds of grains, fruits, grains, beans, nuts and vegetables.
