Elderly People Should Have Seven Little Habits For Health Preservation, With Strong Physical And Mental Health

Jul 29, 2024

At a certain age, not only will various physiological functions change, but psychological abnormalities will also occur, which can easily lead to pessimistic psychology. In addition, with less work more leisure, and a preference for fatty and sweet foods, it is inevitable to suffer from common diseases in old age.

In addition to physical health preservation, elderly people also need to strengthen their psychological "health preservation" - remember these "seven taboos" to keep their body and mind in the best state.

Be less angry

Anger is the enemy of the health of the elderly. The Inner Canon states: "All diseases arise from qi", "Anger harms qi", and "Anger harms the liver". Being angry can cause a lack of emotional flow, leading to qi reversal and stagnation, which can cause various diseases, especially cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Therefore, elderly people should avoid anger.

Less desire

Ancient health experts believed that having a clear mind and few desires, being calm and empty, would lead to sufficient righteous energy and good physical and mental health; If one is blinded by greed and pursues fame and fortune, it will disrupt the qi system and easily lead to diseases such as qi stagnation and blood stasis.

Less color

Everyone who lives a long life regards "distant curtains" as one of their experiences. Excessive sexual activity can damage the kidneys, and kidney qi damage can lead to aging. Young people can also age prematurely. Moreover, elderly people have a weakened yang body, so it is more advisable to reduce or prohibit color to preserve essence.

silence

Talking too much can be frustrating. Speaking too much can lead to uneven breath, which can easily damage lung qi and also damage qi. Qi is closely related to essence and spirit. When Qi gathers, essence becomes abundant, and when essence becomes abundant, spirit becomes pleasant. Therefore, speaking less can accumulate qi and produce essence, and having enough essence can make one fully focused. In addition, elderly people tend to make mistakes in their words, which may not please their children and grandchildren, but instead turn happiness into worry.

Eat less

The spleen and stomach are the foundation of postnatal development and the source of nutrient intake throughout the body. Drinking too much can make it difficult to get wet; Food should not be consumed excessively, as excessive consumption can lead to stagnation. If the long-term diet is rich and the intake exceeds the body's needs, it will lead to food accumulation, qi stagnation, phlegm turbidity, and blood stasis heat. Therefore, traditional Chinese medicine advocates that one should not eat when extremely hungry, as eating is not enough to fill oneself. Eating less of the spleen is easy to grind and transport, which can fill the muscle marrow with the Qi of Qi and promote health and longevity.

Sleep less

Sleep is an important factor for physical health. The elderly have good sleeping habits, but they also need to exercise restraint. Lying down for a long time can damage one's yang energy. If a person's yang energy does not extend, their body's activity ability will decline, and the digestive function of the spleen and stomach will also weaken. Therefore, the elderly should move more and sleep less.

Sit less

Sitting too much can damage muscles. Some elderly people are idle at home, addicted to TV and playing cards, and use cars for transportation when going out, which can cause blood stasis, local skin bruising, bruising, and even venous thrombosis. Therefore, elderly people should not sit for long and can take regular walks to move their limbs and maintain smooth blood flow.
