The first one: you must sleep before the child - in the concept of health in the Shaolin Temple, sleep is the first major event in life. If you don't sleep before the hour of each day (equivalent to 11 p.m. to 1 a.m. the next day), many old monks and doctors will say, "I won't treat you." "In fact, it is not that it is not treated, but that it is not cured." People who stay up late for many years, whether male or female, directly injure the liver, hurt the kidneys for a long time, and gradually cause the body to lose both qi and blood, and when they look in the mirror every day, they will feel that their faces are gray. At this time, it is a daily nutrition product, exercising every day, and it cannot save the damage caused by lack of sleep or poor sleep. Therefore, it is okay to get up early, but it is absolutely not okay to go to bed late. Many people with low spirits have the habit of sleeping late, which is often easy to hurt the liver, sperm and gallbladder. Such people, the eyes are often not good, the mood is more depressed, there are not many happy times (lung qi is also affected, long-term can not get the reason for effective publicity). Some people think that sleeping late at night, you can make up for it during the day, in fact, you can't make up for it at all, either you can't sleep, or you can't sleep enough, even if you feel that you have made up for it, in fact, the body's qi and blood have been damaged for the most part.
The second rule: when sleeping, it is advisable not to think about anything - "regard this body as nothing, or as sugar into the water, first melt the big toe, then the other toes, then the feet, calves, thighs gradually melt, and finally disappear, naturally asleep." This is the ideal mental state when a Zen doctor falls asleep. Many times, insomnia stems from lingering distractions while falling asleep. At this time, do not toss and turn in bed, so as not to exhaust energy, it is more difficult to fall asleep, the best way is to sit up for a while and then fall asleep. In fact, for modern people, if you want to fall asleep before 11 p.m., it is also crucial to go to bed early to brew emotions, so as to give your mind a period of time to slowly calm down. "Sleep first, then sleep with your eyes", this is the truth. If it still doesn't work, you can try to simply press your legs before going to bed, and then sit cross-legged or squat on the bed naturally, put your hands on your legs, breathe naturally, feel the pores of the whole body with the breath, if you can tear and yawn the best effect, and fall asleep when you want to sleep.
Article 3: At noon, it is advisable to take a nap or sit still to recuperate - noon (equivalent to 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.), at this time, if the conditions are limited and you cannot sleep, you can sit quietly for a quarter of an hour and close your eyes to recuperate. Zen masters who meditate in a meditation hall are accustomed to taking a nap at noon. In fact, as long as you close your eyes and really fall asleep for 3 minutes at noon, it is equivalent to sleeping for two hours, but it is necessary to be right at noon. At night, it is necessary to fall asleep at the time of the first child, and 5 minutes is equal to six hours.
Fourth: Sleep must get up early - monks live a life of morning bells and twilight drums, even in winter, it will not exceed 6 a.m., and try to get up before 5 o'clock in spring, summer and autumn. For human health, getting up early is conducive to the body's metabolism.
The advantage of getting up early is that on the one hand, the metabolic turbidity can be excreted from the body, if you get up too late, the large intestine cannot be fully active, and the excretory function cannot be completed well. In addition, the body's digestive absorption function is most active from 7 to 9 o'clock in the morning, which is the "golden time" for nutrient absorption. Therefore, do not lie in bed, dizziness, fatigue is caused by snooze.
The above four precepts are very important, and I will summarize them:
1. Be sure to sleep before the child hour;
2. Sleep should not think about anything;
3. Take a nap or sit still at noon;
4. Sleep must be early.
