Chapter 24 Section 7 Get rid of sub-health problems

He who cannot rest cannot work.What does it mean to take a break?The meaning given by modern science is active rest.This is an active way of rest, which is a qualitative improvement compared to the passive rest method of resting when you are tired. In today's highly competitive society, people's fatigue is spreading, and the most popular greeting has changed from "Have you eaten" 10 years ago to "Have you been struggling?"Around us, there are many such "workaholics". They go to work early, leave work late, get off work all day and all night, even on Sundays and holidays.Many people's health has been seriously damaged at a young age, and even "karoshi" has occurred.

"Karoshi" is the result of development and deterioration on the basis of chronic fatigue syndrome.Chronic fatigue syndrome is a syndrome mainly characterized by persistent or recurrent debilitating fatigue for at least half a year. Feeling very tired, lack of energy at work, lack of fun in life, and often accompanied by emotional reactions such as depression and anxiety, that is, in a third state that looks like a disease but not a disease, that is, a sub-health state. Mr. Thomson, an artist who has just passed his thirties, although his work and life are decent, his status and income are relatively mediocre.Not reconciled, he moved around and took several part-time jobs, including an art teacher at an art school, a creative director of an advertising company, and a consultant at an art exhibition center.Just when he was proud of his spring breeze, his body protested to him, and he summed it up in one word-tired!Every night when he came home, he felt that his bones were about to fall apart, and those inexplicable dreams bothered him when he went to bed.

Anthony is nearly 40 years old, a typical office worker, most afraid of night.Because I don’t know when, he became a person without sleep, and almost exhausted all the local methods and foreign remedies except medicine, but they failed to solve the problem of insomnia.Not only that, symptoms such as loss of appetite, neurasthenia, and loss of libido also came to join in the fun one after another, and no problem was found in the hospital. The human body is like a "spring", and fatigue is an "external force".When fatigue exceeds the limit or lasts too long, the spring of the body will produce permanent deformation, leading to aging, exhaustion, and death, so everyone must be careful to maintain its elasticity and not exceed its elastic limit.Therefore, proper rest and decompression are the best ways to maintain "elasticity". "Death from overwork" can only be prevented. There is no specific medicine for "tiredness" disease.Alternating work and rest can maintain elasticity, increase endurance, and maintain vigorous vitality.People should learn to adjust their life. Short-distance travel, visiting scenic spots, climbing mountains and looking far away, broadening horizons, breathing fresh air, increasing mental vitality, taking time out to listen to music, dancing and singing, watching flowers, birds, fish and insects are all ways to relieve fatigue and relieve nervous nerves. An effective way to relax and a good mental medicine to prevent fatigue.

Japan's "Death from Overwork" Prevention Association lists ten signs of "Death from Overwork": (1) The "general's belly" appeared early. People aged 30 to 50 have a big belly, which is a sign of maturity and a potential danger signal for hyperlipidemia, fatty liver, high blood pressure, and coronary heart disease. (2) Hair loss, alopecia areata, premature baldness.Every time I take a sauna, a lot of hair falls out, which is caused by work pressure and mental stress. (3) Go to the bathroom frequently.If your age is between 30 and 40 years old, and the frequency of excretion is more than normal, it means that the digestive system and urinary system are beginning to decline.

(4) Decreased sexual ability.Premature backache and leg pain in middle-aged people, loss of libido or impotence in men, and premature amenorrhea in women are the first signs of overall physical decline. (5) memory loss, began to forget the names of acquaintances. (6) Mental arithmetic ability is getting worse and worse. (7) Often regret doing things, irritability, irritability, pessimism, difficulty controlling one's emotions. (8) Inattention, and the ability to concentrate is getting worse. (9) The sleep time is getting shorter and shorter, and it is not exhausting to wake up.

(10) Frequent headaches, tinnitus, and dizziness, and no results from examinations. The Japanese "Karoshi" Prevention Association also announced a self-examination method: those who have the above two items or less are in the "yellow light" warning period, and there is no need to worry about it; If there are more than 6 items, it is the second-level "red light" danger period, which can be listed as "comprehensive fatigue certificate" - "death from overwork" reserve army. The method of preventing sub-health can start from the following five aspects.

First, get enough sleep.We often say that those who do not rest cannot work.This sentence brilliantly summarizes the dialectical relationship between rest and work, and it is also a "panacea" for modern people to prevent "overwork injuries". What is "will rest"?The meaning given by modern science is active rest.In recent years, scientists have proposed a new way of rest—active rest, that is, to rest before the body feels tired and the state of mind reaches a critical state, including active rest for body and mind.This is an active way of rest, which is a qualitative improvement compared to the passive rest method of resting when you are tired.

Second, adjust your mental state and stay positive and optimistic.A wide range of hobbies will benefit people endlessly, not only for self-cultivation, but also for assisting in the treatment of some mental illnesses.Treat stress well, regard stress as an inseparable part of life, and learn to reduce pressure moderately to ensure a healthy and good mood. Third, adjust the law of life in time and combine work and rest.Moderate work and rest is the mother of health, the normal operation of the body clock is the guarantee of health, and the "wrong point" of the body clock is the beginning of sub-health.In the process of evolution, the human body has formed an inherent law of life movement, that is, the "biological clock", which maintains the law of blood circulation and metabolism in the process of life movement.Going against the clock will destroy this law and affect the normal metabolism of the human body.

Fourth, ensure a reasonable diet and balanced nutrition.Vitamins and minerals are essential nutrients for the human body.Develop correct eating and living habits: eat less and eat more, eat less food and more vegetables, less salt and more vinegar, less desire and more food, less worry and more sleep, less anger and more laughter, avoid smoking, alcohol, fried, smoked and moldy food, Diversify the mix of thickness, eat more fruits, vegetables, soy products, eat less pork, and eat some beef, mutton, chicken, fish, etc. appropriately. Fifth, increase outdoor physical exercise activities and ensure a certain amount of exercise every day.Modern people are keen on urban life, busy with their careers, and have less and less time for physical exercise.Strengthening self-exercise can improve the body's resistance to disease.The human body has many commonalities in the process of life movement, but there are also individual differences.Therefore, physical training should be a highly individual knowledge.
