Chapter 3 Chapter III Health Law of Mature Age

What is health?How to define, each has its own view.In a word: "The blood of the whole body flows unhindered" - that is health, the most easy to understand. Blood plays the role of carrying oxygen and nutrients throughout the body.If the blood is not smooth, the tissues that cannot be transported will have different changes.For example, part of the tissue will shrink, tissue destruction will produce ulcers, and even lead to necrosis and shedding. From this point of view, all causes of disease are caused by poor blood retention. The inner walls of blood vessels throughout the body are rich in nerves.In other words, nerves are like the director of blood vessels, regulating the expansion and contraction of blood vessels.

For example, when I suddenly heard the news of the death of a relative or friend, I was surprised with an "ah", and my face suddenly turned pale.This is a phenomenon caused by shocking psychological information transmitted to the nerves, acting on the blood vessels, constricting the blood vessels, and suppressing the blood flow for a while. On the contrary, during strenuous exercise, the blood vessels dilate and the face flushes. Similarly, in the hot summer, the blood vessels dilate to dissipate heat, and in the severe winter, the blood vessels constrict to retain heat. The internal regulation function of the human body is always positive and reasonable.Sympathetic nerves control vasoconstriction and parasympathetic nerves control vasodilation.The two are collectively called the autonomic nervous system.

To sum up, psychological activity and state of mind largely influence the autonomic nerve.When feeling stress such as nervousness, unhappiness, and restlessness, the sympathetic nerves are activated first, constrict blood vessels, and slow down blood flow.On the contrary, feel happy, refreshed, and relaxed, the parasympathetic nerve plays a leading role, the blood vessels relax, and the blood flow is smooth. These feelings abound in real life: If you drink at the same table with an annoying leader, you will not get drunk because of nervousness and discomfort.But after breaking up, going to a familiar bar alone or returning home, once you relax, the drunk will hit you immediately.

This is because the blood vessels in the stomach and intestines are constricted by tension, and alcohol cannot be absorbed well.And once you return to the familiar bar or home, your blood vessels will dilate as soon as you feel relaxed, and the alcohol in your belly will be absorbed all at once.All in all, relaxation increases intoxication. Recently, I often hear that some husbands feel nervous when they come home and face their wives drinking alcohol—it seems that everything is not easy to handle when they go home....If you are really nervous, you might as well hide in the bathroom and drink alone in the bathtub, which is also the best policy.One person is at ease, soaking in the bathtub without any scruples, humming a little song, drinking a little wine, why not do it? !

Now I am completely relaxed—the whole body is warm, the blood vessels are dilated, and people start to feel drunk.If you want to drink a little wine to enjoy the drunkenness alone, this is a good way.But the story of being so intoxicated, lying in the bathtub and unable to get up, also happens from time to time, so be careful. In any case, if the body and mind are happy and relaxed, the blood vessels will dilate and the blood circulation will be unimpeded; on the contrary, if you are sad, uncomfortable, irritable and depressed, the blood vessels will constrict and the blood circulation will be blocked.

As long as you understand this, you will know what state is harmful to the body. Mental stress such as distress, depression, and irritability can compress blood vessels and slow down blood circulation, so try to avoid it.On the contrary, being happy, sunny and optimistic will make blood vessels dilate and blood circulation smooth-whoever maintains this state has mastered the key to health. It is precisely for this reason that I have repeatedly suggested that everyone should be full of curiosity, try all kinds of new things with a childlike innocence that is interesting in everything. However, not everyone is always able to maintain a happy and cheerful state of mind.Occasionally, there will be depression, sorrow and pain.Or no matter how hard you work, you still attract failure or criticism from your leadership.

When encountering this situation, you should not be discouraged. Failure is a failure. When you know that you are wrong, you should immediately apologize: "I'm sorry." The next moment, immediately turn to a positive and optimistic new start.In short, switch emotions as soon as possible, try to forget boredom, and think of happiness as soon as possible. It is precisely this point that is emphasized in my book, to strengthen the power of mental insensitivity. For the Platinum generation, it is especially important to have insensitivity. To be dull in the positive sense.Unswervingly pursue happy, interesting, personal hobbies.In this way, the blood circulation in the whole body will be smooth, and the health of the body and mind will be maintained at all times.

In fact, the same is true. Cheerful and optimistic people are definitely healthy and energetic. On the contrary, people who are always gloomy, obsessed with trivial matters and neurotic are not only prone to diseases, but also slow to recover once they get sick, and their average life expectancy is also short. Whether you are healthy or not has a lot to do with your mentality—your mentality determines your health. Such a simple but important truth must not be forgotten.Whenever something goes wrong, immediately think of this sentence. Having said that, some people may still think that it is not interesting to live a long life-but don't think so.

A healthy and long-lived person not only did not cause trouble to others, but even on the day of the end of life, he died peacefully as if he was asleep after closing his eyes and resting for two or three days. This is true euthanasia without causing anyone trouble.
