Chapter 74 Learn to relax and relieve fatigue

Many women always complain that they live in fatigue every day: they need to go to work during the day, and they have to endure the scolding from the boss and the torture of those annoying documents.After get off work in the evening, I still have to do housework and take care of my husband and children-there is really no joy in life! In fact, I really feel sorry for this lady, because until then she didn't have a correct understanding of fatigue.In fact, the cause of her fatigue was not from the outside world, but from herself. As early as a few years ago, scientists have come to this conclusion through research: No matter what work you do, as long as it belongs to those jobs that do not require a lot of physical exertion, then you will not be able to experience fatigue at all.I am not jumping to conclusions here without evidence, because scientists have found that when the blood passes through the active brain of humans, there is no fatigue phenomenon at all.

I must explain here that I am not denying that the human body can produce fatigue.If you could take a sample of blood from the veins of someone who was doing physical labor, you'd find that it was literally full of "fatigue hormones," and that caused those people to feel really tired.However, if you were able to extract some blood samples from the veins of Einstein, who was concentrating on his research, you would be surprised to find that there is not a trace of "fatigue factor" in it.Why?Why is Einstein, a scientist with such a large brain, not a little tired, but ladies who use far less brains than her feel so tired every day?

In response to this problem, I once consulted Professor Donald, a famous American psychopathologist, and he told me very positively: "Whether you admit it or not, those mental workers who are in good health will not be tired at all. If they If you really feel tired, then it must be due to your own psychological factors, or you can say emotional factors.” I agree with Professor Donald, because this theory has been proposed before. I believe that the ladies have understood what I want to say. Indeed, tension is actually the culprit of fatigue, but this tension is caused by women's own emotions.Of course, these emotions that cause tension cannot be those positive ones, but those negative emotions such as boredom, dissatisfaction, and various anxiety.They consume a large part of the energy of ladies invisibly, make your energy decline, your limbs become weak, and finally make you physically and mentally exhausted and tired.We should therefore say that much of what is called fatigue refers to mental fatigue.

I once interviewed the famous novelist Vicky Baum. During the chat, she told me an interesting story that happened in her childhood.Once, the naughty Vicky ran to the field alone to play, but accidentally broke her knee on the way.At this time, an old man came over and helped her up.While helping her dust off her body, the old man chatted with her: "Little girl, when I was young, I used to be a clown in a circus. You know, clowns have to do a lot of funny moves to make others laugh Yes, and many movements are dangerous. However, I never hurt myself because I know how to relax. Girl, the reason you get hurt is because you don't know how to relax. You should put yourself Think of it as a very old, very worn handkerchief."

Then, the old man taught Vicky how to relax herself, and before leaving, he specifically told her: "Remember, imagine yourself as a very old, very old handkerchief, then you will really relax yourself. " In fact, a lot of wisdom comes from ordinary people, just like this old man.Ladies, you can also do what the old man said.You should relax yourselves all the time, anytime, anywhere.But it is important to remember that you must never be nervous and tell yourself to relax, because then you will actually create new tension for yourself. Learning to relax is not terribly difficult, and while it may take you a long, long time to change your current bad habits, the effort is definitely worth it.Because if you really learn to relax yourself and get rid of fatigue, then your whole life may change accordingly.Some women may ask, "Where do I start? With my mind? Or with my spirit?" No, ladies, none of this is for you.What you should do now is first learn to relax your muscles.

Let's do an experiment!Ladies, you can focus on the eyes for relaxation, but you will have to tense up for a while because you have to read this text first.You lean back in the chair, close your eyes slowly and easily, and say to yourself, "Relax, relax, stop that nasty frown, relax, relax, relax, relax... "Don't stop ladies, you should last at least a minute or so. How are you, ladies?Are you starting to feel it?I have, because I'm using this method too.My eye muscles are beginning to obey and my whole face is less tense.I felt as if an invisible hand drove away all the tension.I did not choose the eyes as the test site at random, because the most important organ that causes fatigue is the eyes.

Dr. Eric Johnson of the University of Washington once said that once a person can relax the muscles of his eyes, he can completely free himself from worry.This is because the energy consumed by the human eye nerves accounts for about a quarter of the energy consumed by the nerves in the whole body. Ladies, next, you can follow this method to get rid of the tension in your face, neck, shoulders and whole body.
