As the old saying goes, "Eat in the morning to strengthen the fire, discharge the residual sperm in the afternoon, and the life is short and the yang is declining", the warning of the ancients, do not ignore it
China has a long history, profound cultural heritage and vitality.
Among the four major ancient civilizations in the world, our historical civilization has been shining for thousands of years and will continue to shine to this day.
In the long history, we have witnessed many incredible things, and behind them are the wisdom of the ancients.
Many believe that today's technology is very advanced and far superior to the past on all levels.
It will be difficult to find arguments against this point of view for some time to come, but we must say that we should never deny the wisdom of the ancients, because there are many things created by the ancients that we today cannot replicate even with advanced high technology.
One of them is the Zeng Hou Yizun plate, which is considered to be the most intricate and beautifully crafted bronze of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, with a structure so complex that we cannot accurately count the number of dragons.
After a long period of research by experts, it was found that the body was decorated with 28 dragons and 32 dragons, and the disc was decorated with 56 dragons and 48 dragons.
The dragon is also a sacred and terrifying dragon-like creature, resembling a snake, so they all look like dragons and are too dense to count on the disc.
That's why modern technology can't scan and model it in 3D accurately, let alone reproduce it perfectly.
In addition to the incredible handicrafts, the indigenous people have received a good education in health and fitness, and many of the things they highlighted are still relevant today.
The extreme heat in the morning, the exhaustion of residual essence in the afternoon, and the decline of yang energy in the short term are the age-old health warnings that make these warnings not really take life seriously.
What do these suggestions of the ancients mean?
Eat early to strengthen your body. I think a lot of people have a hard time getting up in the morning, sometimes getting things done so they don't get late, sometimes they even have a hard time setting the alarm clock, but whenever the alarm goes off, it's a kind of what we call it"Sober"'s anger will increase.
So I especially admire people who don't use an alarm clock and even get up when they hear it ring, but even then the alarm clock goes off, it's just that some people hide it well.
This means that, in fact, we light most of the tinder every morning.
This layer of breakfast means, many people think of breakfast"The fire is big", it will not affect health, so do not pay attention to the restrictions.
In fact, this is a misunderstanding, because the ancients believed that Wanghuo is a very hot fire, which can even corrode the essence and spirit of the human body.
Ancient health care beliefs believed that essence is the foundation of life, and the loss of essence qi can lead to illness and even life-threatening.
It is not advisable to eat greasy and hot food in the morning, because there is a burning sensation, otherwise it will only aggravate the body"It's scorching", making people eat hotter and hotter, which is not good for health.
Take, for example, the diet of ancient emperors. They have the wealth of the world and can enjoy the world's food at will, but they pay great attention to the balance of their diet, rather than eating whatever they like in the morning.
Otherwise, we wouldn't have hired so many eunuchs and imperial cooks.
But today in order to avoid"Add fuel to the fire"We need to restrain our anger in the morning and then eat something nutritious and light.
Day and night are reversed. The ancients believed that the yang energy was at its peak and the yin energy was the weakest at noon every day, so the ancients liked to execute prisoners at this time, usually at 3 p.m.
In terms of health, the ancients believed that noon was the key time for the human body to replenish oxygen in the blood, so ancient dignitaries liked to doze off at noon, no matter how busy they were.
Take Cao Cao in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" as an example: Cao Cao is a person who likes to doze off, so he likes to go to his favorite concubine to take a nap at noon, and then behead her directly at his own request because the concubine did not wake him up in time.
For us today, the lunch break is also very important, sometimes the morning is very busy, you can take a nap at noon, and then the whole afternoon is refreshed, this is what the ancients often said, the body fills the essence, otherwise you will feel particularly tired.
If you don't rest at noon and continue to work in the afternoon, you will over-consume the essence in your body.
If you have sex in the middle of the day, it will lead to a loss of kidney essence and yang energy will not be replenished, thus endangering your health.
That's what the Aborigines say"Spermatozoa in the afternoon"。
If this unhealthy habit continues, the result will be:"Short-lived"。
Time waits for no man. The ancients believed that short life was almost always due to a lack of yang energy, and eating strong fire in the morning and leaking surplus sperm in the afternoon were bad habits that led to insufficient yang energy.
Therefore, you first need to change these two habits to fit your health and lifestyle.
Many people say they are busy and don't have time to take a nap in the middle of the day, but it's important to remember that time is limited, and even if you can't sleep sometimes, it's good to close your eyes and rest for a few minutes.
In ancient Chinese history, the most powerful emperors had the most important resources for survival, and therefore lived the longest.
But in fact, this is not the case, some emperors can't restrain their desires under the ** of beauty, they are unscrupulous, and they can't wait to vent themselves day and night, not to mention"Leak at noon"Finish.
This is the fundamental reason why there are many short-lived ghosts among the emperors, they have no congenital diseases, and their bodies are twice as healthy as they were at the beginning.
We can see that the advice of the elderly is very reasonable and should not be taken seriously, because it contains a lot of wisdom for the elderly to maintain their health.
Many people may think that these words cannot be taken seriously, after all, the old living environment and today's living environment are two different worlds, and the old concept of health may not be suitable for modern people.
In fact, people don't change much after they become perfect, so the wisdom of our ancient ancestors is very useful in the present environment.
Therefore, no matter what time of day you are, you should restrain your anger in the morning for the sake of your physical and mental health. Get plenty of rest in the middle of the day to refuel your body.
