The head of the cardiology department of a well-known university suffered a heart attack and was in a very serious condition, and after experiencing a desperate situation, he began to seriously think about his life, and during the three months of hospitalization, he sorted out his life experience, and then summed up two rules of life.
These two rules of life are not a good prescription for health care. Rather, there are two very simple ways to behave in the world:
Rule 1: Don't waste your energy on sesame trivials, and rule 2: Everything is sesame.
I deeply believe that the more I dwell on small things, the more it will affect my emotions. You may not know that emotional fluctuations such as anxiety, depression, anger, and frustration can be signs before the body collapses.
According to the World Health Organization, when people have negative emotions, more than 70% of them digest them by attacking their own body organs.
A new Danish study involving 9,870 adults over an 11-year period starting in 2000 found that:
Compared with those without the corresponding problems, the mortality rate of those who often experienced emotional distress due to the relationship was 1 times;
People who are often anxious about parent-child relationships have a 50% increase in mortality;
The mortality rate of people who quarrel with their families is doubled, and the mortality rate of those who quarrel with neighbors is doubled.
Stress makes people emotional, and the body sends out "alarm signals" along with it. Before the body collapses, it will give you these 7 signals, and you must pay more attention to it in life.
1. Get angry
From a health point of view, the five kinds of qi, idleness, resentment, sullenness, gambling and anger not only make people feel bad, but also leave a "bad record" in the body.
When angry, the face is pale, the lips are purple, and the hands and feet are cold, which can lead to low immune function and organ lesions over time. In particular, the elderly who are not in good health are prone to cerebral hemorrhage, heart disease and myocardial infarction when their blood pressure rises instantaneously when they are angry.
Solution:
1. "Anger" is the slave's own heart, at this time, you must give yourself psychological hints, and you must not be a slave of emotions;
2. It is best not to be angry for more than 3 minutes;
3. Increasing the intake of fat and protein appropriately can calm the mood, and a spoonful of peanut butter a day is a good choice.
4. Carbohydrates such as buckwheat and brown rice can also stimulate the secretion of complex amines, which makes people quiet.
2. Grief
"Don't think about tea and dinner" and "borrow wine to eliminate sorrows" are all manifestations of excessive sadness. At this time, the human sympathetic nervous system secretes a large amount of stress hormones, which will cause the arteries to constrict, which can easily lead to a heart attack.
Traditional Chinese medicine also believes that when a person is sad, he often has shortness of breath or even can't cry, which can easily cause damage to lung qi.
Solution:
1. When you are sad, you can try to pretend to be smiling, this kind of "psychological feint" is conducive to releasing bad emotions;
2. Use the "happy memory method" to think about some previous happiness, divert attention, and be sure to communicate with people when you are sad;
3. Whole grains and foods rich in tryptophan can help you stay away from sadness, such as fish, meat, black beans, pumpkin seeds, etc.
3、恐惧
When a person is threatened or may be hurt, there is an instinctive emotion that arises, and this is fear.
It can give rise to many other emotions, such as nervousness, anxiety, fear, restlessness, etc.
If you are in a constant state of fear, you will feel flustered, shortness of breath, confusion and even fainting.
Solution:
Fear is a normal psychological response and does not have to be stressful and burdensome. You can start by listing the various possible factors of your fear and learn to face it head-on. In addition, you can eat some of your favorite foods, which can help relieve tension and fear.
4. Melancholy
Often in a state of melancholy, it can lead to excessive production of adrenaline and cortical cholesterol, which accelerates the aging process of the body. Many elderly people are surrounded by loneliness and melancholy because their children are not around after retirement, and it is easy to "age fast".
Solution:
1. In the face of depression, you can think backwards, see the good side of the problem, and actively seek happiness;
2. Making friends can divert one's attention and help eliminate the depression in one's heart;
3. Magnesium has the effect of stabilizing mood, eating more bananas, apples, grapes, oats, etc., can improve mood.
5. Hostility
Hostility can turn into anxiety, which can damage the immune system and in more severe cases, damage to the heart.
Negative emotions are associated with declining lung function, which in turn accelerates the decline of lung function in the elderly. In addition, hostile emotions can cause heart disease, asthma, etc.
Solution:
1. 80% of hostility can be overcome, face up to social and workplace rules, think more about work, and less about interpersonal relationships;
2. When there are signs of hostility, you can make yourself a cup of green tea, which helps to stabilize your mood and clear your mind.
6. Suspicion
Suspicious people often feel lonely, lonely, flustered and anxious, especially some elderly people, even if it is a small thing, they have to ponder and suspect for a long time.
They are nervous every day, which can eventually lead to a psychological breakdown, loss of appetite and malnutrition due to restless sleep.
Solution:
1. If you feel suspicious, you can record one of your advantages every day, which will help enhance self-confidence, enhance the ability to communicate face-to-face with others, and reduce misunderstandings.
2. Eating some seafood products can improve your mood and eliminate your uneasy state.
7. Seasonality is out of control
Studies have shown that about 10% of people are prone to emotional out-of-control and frequent arguments and friction during the hot summer months, and in the winter months, there are more people with depression than usual. These mood problems are collectively known as "seasonal affective disorders", and people who are particularly sensitive to the environment and climate can develop anxious or depressed moods, and in severe cases, they can also cause a decline in the normal functioning of the body.
Solution:
1. Actively adjust your diet and daily life in summer, and use swimming and other exercises to eliminate negative emotions.
2. Eat more vegetables and fruits in winter, participate in more outdoor activities, bask in the sun, improve indoor natural light, etc., which are conducive to dissolving negative emotions.
That's right, the biggest reminder you can give before your body breaks down is that your emotions start to become unstable.
Someone once said, "A lost soul can kill you much faster than germs."
On the road of life, the biggest enemy we encounter is not ability, not condition, but emotion.
There are some troubles in life that cannot be avoided, there is nowhere to escape the troubles found by others, we cannot change others, but you can adjust yourself: do not argue, do not explain, do not care.
Or the old saying: "How to deal with the world that deceives me, hates me, and deceives me?"
You just have to remember: "Ignore him, stay for a few more years, and watch him." ”
Don't worry, some people don't have things that matter at all. But do good deeds, don't ask about the future, but be yourself, don't care about others.
I hope each of us can calm down and say to our emotions and bodies: thank you, hard work!
In the days to come, let us work together: gentle, interesting, not too intense, three meals, four seasons, do not have to be too rushed, grateful, brave, do not have to be too flustered.
Unhurriedly, looking forward to a longer spring in the future.
