A Japanese electronics retailer recently surfed and decided that employees could work until they were 80 if they wanted to.
Netizen: Thank you, I can't tell for a moment whether it is pension expenses or funeral expenses.
However, Japan also announced that the retirement age was 70 years old in April, and after a few days of not seeing, it was ten years older?
For Japanese social animals, the "culture of constantly delaying retirement + overtime" is simply unbearable, how bitter is it? Although the average sleep time in Japan is about 6 hours, there are still some workers who sleep only about two hours a day.
Recently, a Japanese girl named "Maruko" recorded her day on YouTube.
At 2:30 in the middle of the night, buy a bottle of beer and hit the taxi back home, everyone knows that the price of Japanese taxis is expensive, but the tram stops at about 12 o'clock, she has no way but to take a taxi, return home to simply prepare meals to continue to deal with work, while being scolded by the boss while numbly sorting out the documents.
At 4:15 in the middle of the night, I finally finished busy, and quickly washed up and went to bed.
Get up at 6:30 a.m., as a Japanese working woman, she does not dare to rely on bed for a minute, immediately wash and put on makeup, because in Japan, the average woman goes out to wear makeup to show her respect for others.
After cleaning up, she took the train to the company non-stop, and by the way, she solved the breakfast with a cup of black coffee + loose egg, and the company was 7:40, there was no danger, because in Japan, most of us will arrive at the company in advance, if it is a young employee, it is more necessary to perform well.
At 2:00 p.m., the pills that had been busy for half a day did not reward themselves with a hearty lunch, because the long stay up late and irregular diet had made her have no appetite and only bought a bottle of juice to fill her hunger.
After buying juice, she went to the park bench to relax the nervous mood, by the way to rest for 5 minutes, the result did not expect to sleep out of date, slept for 15 minutes, returned to the company, and was criticized by the leader, because the pills do business type work, so often have to negotiate with some customers, today she and the customer talk is not ideal, the leader said: "If you still can't talk to the customer today, then go to death."
Maruko can only endure silently, digging into the sauce to check the data to see that the "class nature" of Japanese companies is relatively strong, often offending a boss, may be ruining their own industry prospects, so most people choose to endure.
Busy, the next day at 1:30 a.m. finally arrived home, Maruko still took a beer back home in a taxi, today she is very happy, because today is an hour earlier than yesterday, but the boss's phone call also follows like a nightmare.
In a round of criticism + apology, the boss angrily concludes: "You will be at the company at 6 o'clock tomorrow".
So today Maruko finished her work after dinner and only slept for an hour, but she was not in the mood to think much, and could only find a moment of peace in the pitiful sleep time.
At the end of the video, I don't know what Maruko will face at 6:00 the next day, but I know that she is most likely repeating every day, without a pause button.
As soon as the video was sent, it exploded on YouTube, resonating with countless animals, more students who had not yet entered the workplace or the new in the workplace, and the shock of foreign friends: "All the times have been made, and there is such a natural lack of morality boss? ”
Some netizens advised her to find a job that made her happy, after all, long-term late sleep, the body will not eat, especially girls, more likely to cause a series of diseases.
If you say something like, "It feels so hard,"
It was as if I had been defeated
Can you understand Maruko's desire to live a good life through her own efforts, but when did it start that saying "tired" became a sin, and when did a healthy routine become a luxury? Maruko said at the end of the video: "I think I can still persevere, this is life, becoming a cog of society, is the proof that the social animals are alive." ”
But this "use all your energy as fuel" has allowed the crisis to come slowly.
Although there are a few or even isolated cases like Maruko, more and more young people are not sleeping well, so that they have caused a series of "psychological" and "physical" diseases, including:
winter
Decreased vision;
Emotional instability: forgetfulness, fatigue, anxiety, depression;
Decreased overall immunity, more susceptible to infection or illness;
Endocrine disorders, which can lead to heart disease, diabetes, obesity, cancer;
Digestive system disorders, easy to cause gastroesophageal reflux, gallbladder diseases and other harmful effects;
Unstable skin conditions, various skin problems such as dark circles, and even suffering from seborrheic dermatitis;
This is also why more and more companies now realize that they should care about employee emotions and pay attention to the health of employees, promote efficient office and open "office gyms", so that physical and mental health can work efficiently.
So how do you sleep when your body and mind signal "uncomfortable"?
Before answering this question, let's talk about what misconceptions you have about rest?
For example, take advantage of the holidays to work hard, but still tired? Obviously lying down to play with the mobile phone for a day, but still tired to the point of mental atrophy? Anxiety to insomnia during the work day, and coffee the next day to survive?
If the above situation occurs, it is not that there is no good performance of rest, but that we will not rest.
In addition, most people are still circulating the wrong way of resting, do you have the following situations to check yourself?
One: Sleep hard during the holidays
Many people habitually regard "as long as you sleep enough for 8 hours, you don't stay up late" as a time law to comfort yourself, but this kind of sleep time is sufficient, but you can't guarantee the regularity of sleep.
To ensure a good rest of sleep, is to sleep enough for 6 hours, and sleep within a reasonable period of time, not too long or too short, the latest study in the Journal of the American Cardiology Society:
Sleeping less than 6 hours increases the risk of myocardial infarction by 20%, and sleeping more than 9 hours increases the risk of myocardial infarction by 30%.
Therefore, sleep time is too short or too long, and sleep time is too long, will make the whole body blood circulation slower, brain blood supply continues to decrease, which is why the weekend stay up late, during the day to make up for the wake up after the body fatigue, headache and nausea, sleep is not to make up for it.
Two: strong to endure fatigue charging
The University of Radberg in the Netherlands published research this year, and they explored the question of whether looking at your phone during breaks can restore your mental strength.
The conclusion is that playing with your phone during breaks makes you more tired.
The research team gathered 83 graduate students, surveyed and counted their time and fatigue in using their phones every hour, and then observed a terrifying phenomenon: The more people feel tired, the more they want to play with their phones.
Because "eyes", "ears" and "brains" are used when playing mobile phones, this makes people shift from focusing on learning and working to focusing on the information on mobile phones, and the body senses constantly receive and process information, so that they are more tired.
There will even be a psychological gap because of the comparison with other people's lives, such as: why she can drive a motorhome tour, and I am still struggling to move bricks, I have rested, but I am oppressed by some invisible pressure, so I am more anxious and irritable.
This feeling of exhaustion and anxiety can remain in the body all the time, so there will be a feeling that the holidays are more tiring than going to work, forming a vicious circle.
Physical and mental "rest prescriptions"
So how do you take a good rest and give your body and mind a "rest prescription"?
As mentioned above, even if there is a short sleep time every day, she will quickly adjust her mentality and not think about it, but enjoy this short period of peace and healing, her extreme sleep time is not advisable, but the method and mentality are worth learning.
If you want to rest well, you must first let your body rest
Physical rest is divided into active and passive two ways, active rest is to sleep enough time and master the rules of sleep, usually at noon tired can also rest slightly for 15 minutes, in order to alleviate physical fatigue.
And to understand that the exhaustion of doing nothing is draining the energy of the brain. To speak is to do what you like when you take a break.
Whether it is work or rest, as long as it is something you don't like, if you force yourself to do it, you will mostly feel tired.
At this time, you have to put aside all the troubles of the outside world, do what you like, you can meet with three or five friends to drink tea and chat, you can come to a sweaty sports event, you can hide on the balcony in a daze...
In short, stay away from troubles and try to make yourself feel happy, so as to heal your damaged body and facial features.
Choosing to let everything unpleasant be consumed in a glass of wine
In addition to physical rest, there is also psychological rest.
There are all kinds of unsatisfactory things in life, but we have our own choices, when we are tired, we can buy a cold drink of our favorite on the way to work like today's heroine Maruzi.
Let all unpleasantness be consumed in a glass of wine, and then let the tired heart bloom again with the seeds of strength.
Or anything else you like, British psychologist Hammond in the book "Deep Rest: 10 Psychological Solutions to Heal Yourself in Times of Anxiety", listed the "Rest Test" in 135 countries around the world, 18,000 people participated in the "Rest Test", and concluded that the world's top 10 most reassuring and effective "deep rest methods" are also the "non-toxic and no side effects" psychological therapy for "anxiety times" to cure themselves.
For example, simply paying attention to things to improve happiness, meditating on a thought wandering, being appropriately alone, paying attention to your emotions, avoiding all chatter, going into nature, and feeling strong vitality and appeal are all excellent ways to rest mentally.
Get rid of the things that make you stressed, look for things that really make you have mood swings, and give the mind a "rest prescription" .
In this way, you can save your energy and work and live better.
After all, young should be the most capable age anyway!
To sum up, the simple physical fatigue is enough to be eliminated when you wake up, but the entanglement, contradictions, yearning, weakness, and unwillingness after growing up can no longer use sleep to comfort.
In fact, many times, we regard desires such as yearning and unwillingness as ambition, but usually the ambition on the shell cannot be counted as a stage goal, and the real idea is the true ambition.
So in the life of hard running, we should also boldly take relaxation as a thing that must be done, and at the same time, we must accept that anxiety is a part of our life, after all, the selective pursuit of the word "most" is also an efficiency improvement.
Just like the letters A and Z, the small dots of bcdefgh in between are often the most real growth.
