Entering the spring, many people will wake up earlier and earlier, the spring yang energy rises, and even some of the garbage toxins in our body are also being discharged, since we wake up in the morning, it is better to get up homeopathically, which also helps our body yang energy to rise.
Some people get up early and are full of energy, feeling that the day is full of energy, but some people get up early, and after two hours they start to get sleepy, and they are always tired, and they don't want to do anything, in fact, this has a lot to do with our sleep, as the saying goes, medicine is not as good as food, food is not as good as sleep, and sleeping well in spring is more important than anything else.
The Tao Te Ching says: "All things are negative yin and embrace yang, and they are impulsive and peaceful." "This not only reveals the basic movement changes of the world and the laws of yin and yang harmony and transformation, but also guides us well in maintaining our health. "Treatise on Typhoid Fever" cloud "Yin and Yang are self-harmonious, they will heal themselves", that is, Yin and Yang are in harmony, so that they can **. Sleep is the basis for maintaining the balance of yin and yang in the human body, and the most important thing is to master the timing of the meridian nap.
Meridian sleep, refers to the time and noon sleep, that is, the 11 o'clock in the evening to 1 o'clock in the morning and the noon time period from 11 o'clock in the afternoon to 1 o'clock in the afternoon, these 2 hours of sleep is very important for our sleep, many people like to stay up late, often go to bed at two or three o'clock in the middle of the night, sleep until more than ten o'clock in the morning, but sleep like this for a long time, feel that the body will become more and more tired.
Therefore, sleeping for a long time is not the same as sleeping well, the key is to sleep at the right time, these two time periods are the period of the transformation of heaven and earth, yin and yang, and the body needs to rest well at this time of transformation.
This is also the sleep mode of Nan Huaijin, a master of Chinese culture, who has studied the classics of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism all his life, and also focuses on health preservation. Passing away at the age of 94, he said: "Chinese medicine and Western medicine are not as good as going to bed early, Buddhism and Taoism I still believe in sleeping." "A good night's sleep is not a static parking lot, but a gas station for the body. He can save your work and body, and is the absolute first productive force, as long as you use it in the right way.
Nan Huaijin said: "So people who have insomnia or really want to stay up late at night, in the middle of the night, even if they have 20 minutes, they must sleep, and if they can't sleep, they must train themselves to fall asleep." "Most people with insomnia experience 12 o'clock, tossing and turning in bed, and the next day they are dizzy, so you feel that insomnia is causing you to lack sleep, in fact, you are inexperienced.
Nan Huaijin, a legendary old man, slept very little in his life, only sleeping for 2 hours (i.e. 4 hours) a day. The secret is to sleep well. Not only did he not have a sleep deficit, but he was healthy and enjoyed a long life. As Nan Lao said, even if you want to stay up late and work overtime, you have to squint for a while at 12 o'clock, and the same is true at noon.
And sleep well, not only clear mind, but also nourishing the heart, our heart is 24 hours a day in the fluttering work, only into sleep, in order to take a little rest (heart rate drop), stay up late to lose blood, unconsciously will hurt the heart, the heart is the main mind, restless, the brain is even less bright.
Compared with the sleep of the child, the nap seems to be much easier, many people will sleep for half an hour at noon, to "recharge" themselves, and there is rarely a situation where they can't sleep and take a nap, the most difficult thing to do is the sleep of the child, many people even if they lie in bed at 90 o'clock, they still can't sleep over and over, and can't help but brush their mobile phones.
If we are not the kind of people who can fall asleep with a pillow, we can try these methods of the following Nanshi.
Method 1: Spend less time on your phone and sit quietly
There is too much information in the mobile phone, whether it is looking at joy or sadness, it will mobilize our emotions, emotional excitement, naturally it is not easy to fall asleep, we go to bed an hour before going to bed, that is, from ten o'clock to eleven o'clock, either listen to the soothing **, or read some books that make people sleepy, and unconsciously sleepy will come.
You can also meditate during this time, which is very recommended by Nan Huaijin, with a posture to calm people's minds, and the specific way of meditation is as follows:
Mr. Nan Huaijin uses the "Seven Branches Sitting Method", which refers to the seven main points of the limbs
1.Diplopod (double cross-legged). If you can't use two discs, use a single disc. Or put the left foot on top of the right foot, which is called wishful sitting. Or put the right foot on top of the left foot, which is called vajra sitting. When you start to sit and a single disc is not possible, you can also cross your legs.
2.The spine is erect. Make each bone joint of the back like an abacus stacked vertically. However, if the body is weak or sick, you should not be too rigid and upright at the beginning, let alone exert too much force.
3.The left and right hands are knotted under the dantian (under the lower abdomen) and placed flat on the hip bone. Place the back of your right hand flat on top of your left palm with your palms facing upwards and gently press your thumbs together. In Buddhism, this is called "knotting mudra", and this gesture is also called samadhi (which means fixed seal).
4.The left and right shoulders are slightly spread so that they are even and moderate, and the shoulders should not be heavy.
5.The head is straight, and the back of the head is slightly retracted backwards. Adduct the anterior jaw (not lower the head) and slightly press the movement of the two large arterial canals on the left and right sides of the neck.
6.The eyes are slightly open, as if they are closed and open, as if they are half-open and half-closed. The gaze is arbitrarily determined to be seven or eight feet in front of the seat, or one foot or two feet. (For example, if you usually work with your eyes, it is better to close your eyes at the beginning of meditation.) )
7.The tongue licks slightly against the palate, just like a baby who has not yet grown teeth is asleep.
Method 2: Rub the palms of your hands and feet
Many people don't sleep well, can't sleep, there are also factors of heart and kidney incompatibility, you can soak your feet before going to bed, rub your feet after soaking, the position of the palms of your hands corresponds to our hearts, and the position of the centers of your feet corresponds to our kidneys. Rub your left foot with your right hand and vice versa for 3 minutes on each foot.
Method 3: Make good use of sour jujube kernels
Jujube kernels have always been considered to be the gospel of people who sleep poorly, jujube kernels are known as "Oriental sleep fruits", which can help people settle down, and the way to eat jujube kernels also determines its effect.
Raw sour jujube kernels have an exciting effect, people who don't sleep well should not eat raw, we have to fry them, and then beat them into powder or boil them to eat, and boil them into a paste to eat.

There is also a night can not sleep, often in the middle of the night sweating to wake up, so you need to eat tangerine peel and sour jujube kernels together, tangerine peel relieves depression, protects the liver and spleen and stomach, but also dispels dampness, and mild and not irritating, plus fried sour jujube kernels, moistens the lungs and strengthens the body, can also make us sleep better.

Method 4: Pillows are also important
Many people sleep uncomfortable, will find all kinds of reasons, but ignore the pillow we sleep on every day, in ancient times most of the pillows were high and hard, it is uncomfortable to look at, the height of our pillow varies from person to person, the most important thing is to suit yourself, for people who like to lie flat, put a fist between the pillow and the cervical vertebrae, this height is more appropriate.
When sleeping, we should pay attention to putting the pillow under the neck, the highest point of the pillow arc is directly behind the neck, and the part in contact with the back occipital should be low, which plays an auxiliary role, so that the head and shoulders are supported by the pillow, which is conducive to maintaining the natural physiological angle of the cervical spine and helping the cervical spine to recover and release pressure.
Therefore, the pillow is actually used to pillow the neck, many people like soft pillows, in fact, it is not comfortable to sleep, soft and hard should be moderate, and the height should be moderate.
I am using this herbal cervical pillow, in addition to the soft and hard height, I also like the inner core material inside, which is filled with natural herb particles, and I can smell the faint fragrance of flowers and herbs when sleeping, which are some herbs that calm the nerves and help sleep.
I like to use this pillow with 2 points, one is that its height is really appropriate, and the fluidity of the herb is very good, the height is easy to adjust, I sleep is the kind that is not honest, can meet a variety of sleeping positions, sleep without tired neck.
The second is that these herbs in it have some calming effects, so that I can sleep more soundly, 15 kinds of herbs, are crushed into fine particles, poured into the inner tank to make a pillow core, the inner tank is very thick, there is no need to worry about the herbs exposed inside, the stitches are also very dense.
The outside is not very comfortable to be close to the skin pillow, it can be used in all seasons, the pillow is not stuffy in summer, the pillow is not cold in winter, the pillowcase is best to wash by hand to avoid deformation, the inner tank inside is separated by three or five differences, and it is sunbathed to avoid the herb dampness for a long time.
