Since ancient times, from emperors to the summer solstice common people, they are looking for the secret of longevity, longevity is a permanent subject, the longevity of the elderly is the blessing of the family, and the continuation of this blessing depends on the attitude of the younger generation to the elderly. As the old saying goes: "If you are old for two years, you will live a long life", these are the words left to us by our ancestors. The special "two years" are very exquisite, and the old people need to pay more attention!
These two years of kan actually refers to the 73 and 84 years old, the people have been circulating a saying "seventy-three, eighty-four, Yan Wang does not call himself to go", many old people will also have some worries about these two "watersheds", because, in the past, it represents longevity, on the contrary, it is death.
Why 73 and 84?
Some people ask, why 73 and 84 years old? What to say in these two years? One of the reasons is that because Confucius and Mencius, one lived to be seventy-three years old, the other lived to be eighty-four years old, Confucius and Mencius are representatives of Confucian sages, Confucius and Mencius are difficult to escape these two hurdles, ordinary people are even more difficult to survive, so later generations believe that 73 and 84 are the two more critical hurdles in life.
Another reason is that the ancients divided life into multiple stages, generally in a 12-year cycle, 73 and 84 years old is exactly the first and last two years of the seventh cycle, which means that a new cycle has begun or is about to begin, at this time life can be rejuvenated, as long as this level is passed, you can smoothly pass another cycle.
In fact, the most important reason should be that the ancient medical conditions are backward, the average life expectancy is relatively low, Confucius and Mencius in ancient times are considered the "king of longevity", Confucius, Mencius is a saint, in the hearts of the Chinese people have a high status, over time, people regard these two ages as a hurdle. However, in the modern era of developed medical conditions and abundant materials, it is not surprising to live a long life.
So what should be done at these two ages?
1. Do not eat supplements, food supplements are the last word
Health preservation is not about eating expensive supplements, emphasizing that health preservation is in ordinary life, using ordinary ingredients to achieve the effect of nourishment, that is, often said "medicine and food are the same source".
2. Maintain a positive and optimistic attitude
As the saying goes, health care is to nourish the mind, and a healthy mind can maintain good health.
3. Insist on exercise, work and rest combination
As the saying goes: life lies in movement. Middle-aged and elderly people should learn to enrich their lives, go out and move their bodies more, and make themselves more energetic and energetic.
As the saying goes: "There is an old man in the family, if there is a treasure", I wish all middle-aged and elderly people who look at it again, strive to "be as happy as the East China Sea, and live up to this beautiful era"!
