preface
When I was a child, there was a saying in the countryside: "Men are afraid of three, six, nine, and women are afraid of two, five, eight."
What does it mean, I didn't understand it before, but later I learned that the original number represents the last digit of the age, and men should pay extra attention when they reach the age of these mantissas.
Of course, this is some folk sayings, there are elements of superstition, because in the past the social medical conditions were poor, people's life expectancy was not as long as it is now, so for some age checkpoints, will be very concerned.
From the perspective of modern society, many people generally believe that men will have a hard time in the middle and old age, 59 and 69 years old.
This article will analyze from a scientific point of view.
What does 59 mean for a middle-aged man?
According to the mainland's Law on the Protection of the Rights and Interests of the Elderly, the starting age standard for the elderly is 60 years old.
If a man is 50~59 years old and is still in middle age, then crossing 59 years old means entering the old age stage and becoming an elderly person in the real sense.
Therefore, the age of 59 is an important turning point in a man's life and a key year for the transition from middle age to old age.
This year, men's physical and psychological changes will begin to appear.
Physically, there may not be obvious signs of aging, mainly psychologically, to accept the fact that you have become an old person.
For a man, there is always a little boy living in his heart. At the age of fifty, you can still call yourself middle-aged, but once you pass the age of fifty-nine, you are no longer middle-aged, and the young years are gone.
This year, many men will be a little pessimistic and negative in their mentality, and even sleep at night will be very anxious, and at this special age level, the heart will be very tormented.
The main thing is that we must adjust from the mentality, accept the true self, follow the will of God, stop nostalgic for the beauty of the past, and bravely look forward.
69 years old - farewell to the "primary stage" of the elderly and start the "second spring" of the elderly.
Now many experts on the Internet, the 60~69-year-old old people, defined as "young old people" or "active old people", some Western developed countries even believe that after 69 years old, they can be regarded as the real sense of the elderly.
Because now people's living conditions are better and their life expectancy is long, many men are still full of spirit and vitality even though they are in their 60s. Hence these new statements.
Therefore, the year of 69 years old is another very critical year. After this year, it means that it is from the "primary stage" of the elderly to the middle and late stages of old age, and it is also an important transition period.
This year, mainly the changes in the body, are very noticeable.
Because many elderly people have been able to adapt to changes at the psychological level, but the aging of the body in this year, the speed will feel significantly accelerated, sometimes wake up, look in the mirror, will feel that the hair is a lot grayer.
In addition, the decline in physical strength will also be noticeable. If the young old people can also go to the park for fitness and exercise, they can lift dumbbells and other heavy objects, but at the age of 69, some heavy objects obviously cannot be lifted, and they are forced to participate in some strenuous exercise, they will also be easily injured, and they must be cautious in what they do.
To survive the crisis of 59 and 69 years old and open the "second spring" of the elderly, we must do these things
01. Adjust your mentality. Forget your age, accept your true self, communicate more with your peers, don't hold your emotions in your heart, and communicate with others more, which can make your mood more relaxed and happy.
02. Save as much as possible. In the past two years, with sufficient savings, you will have more confidence and a sense of security, and when you encounter a crisis, you can be at ease and will not be passive everywhere.
03. Active exercise, appropriate exercise. Life lies in exercise, but not excessive exercise, appropriate exercise, can increase the body's resistance, better to cope with the crisis and difficulties in life.
04. Read more poetry books to enrich your spiritual world. After old age, in addition to the material aspect, we must not neglect the spiritual enrichment, try to take time every day, read some books, cultivate your emotions, and purify your soul.
