Du Fu Shiyun: "Fifty years seem to be back. ”
For 50 years, the camp has been camped, but it is just a flick of a finger.
Once upon a time, I was always chasing hard, thinking that the more I had, the better.
But as I get older and more experienced, I know that less is gained, and more is confused.
After the age of fifty, less is the highest level of health preservation, and it is also the most sober way to live.
01
Eat less
"Su Wen" has a saying: "Eating and drinking is self-doubling, and the stomach hurts." ”
When people reach fifty, they have tasted the ups and downs, and walked through rain, snow, wind and frost.
At this time, it is inevitable to look forward to enjoying life and satisfying your appetite without any scruples.
As the saying goes, it is a blessing to be able to eat, three meals a day, and eating well is a rare blessing.
However, eating well is wisdom, and eating too much and too much will inevitably increase the burden on the stomach and intestines and damage the health of the body.
Eat less, seven points full at each meal, and often have three points of hunger, which is really just right, so that all diseases do not attack each other.
Mr. Liushahe, a famous writer, has only two daily health regimens: one is to eat less, and the other is to eat nutrition.
Although his diet is light, it is rich in nutrients, especially porridge, pasta, vegetables and fruits, and he is never greedy.
Even if he has never done physical exercise in his life, his weight is not more than 100, he is not blessed, he walks vigorously, and he lives to the age of 88 years old.
Zhu Xi, a master of science, also said: "Dieting is less sick." ”
In the second half of life, the absence of illness and disaster is the first priority.
Self-control, regular diet, eat small and frequent meals, in order to stay away from diseases and prolong life.
02
Without further ado
As the saying goes, "Sickness comes from the mouth, and misfortune comes from the mouth." ”
When people reach a certain age, they have to recycle, grow and mature in silence.
After all, many times, opening your mouth at will provoke right and wrong at least and ruin your reputation.
A person who learns to speak for two years, learns to shut up all his life, and speaks little is a true wise man.
During the Three Kingdoms, Jia Xu lived to be 76 years old, saved his family, and was one of the few advisors who had a good death.
The reason is that after surrendering to Cao Cao, he would never say more unless necessary.
Cao Cao vacillated on the establishment of the heir and asked Jia Xu for his opinion, but he did not give a reply for a long time.
It wasn't until Cao Cao asked again and again that Jia Xu said: "I'm thinking about Yuan Shao's father and son and Liu Biao's father and son." ”
Jia Xu said a few words, using the past as a metaphor for the present, not only taking care of himself, but also answering questions, which can be described as the best of both worlds.
As the old saying goes: "The water is deep and silent, and the people are steady." ”
If you say more, you will lose, say less about blessings, and control your mouth in order to walk the road of the rest of your life.
03
Nothing to worry about
"Disciple Rules" says: "Don't care about yourself, don't be idle." ”
The red world is disturbed, and they want to interfere in everything, which will only hurt others and tire themselves.
Mind other people's affairs and spend time and energy on yourself is the most transparent way to live.
Don't care about the family affairs of relatives, it is difficult for a clean official to decide family affairs, you are kind and caring, and it is often thankless.
What's more, casually pointing fingers at other people's lives is not for the pleasure of helping others, but for crossing the line to ask for disgust.
Don't care about the difficulties of friends, no diamonds, don't do porcelain work, please put away your generosity.
It's not indifference, it's a well-thought-out trade-off, and taking care of yourself is the top priority.
Don't care about the private affairs of your children, don't be stupid or deaf, don't be a family, and your children and grandchildren will have their own blessings.
Opening one eye and closing one eye, going with the flow, and learning to let go is the best gift for children.
Mo Dao Sangyu is late, for the sun is still full of sky, after the age of fifty, the real life has just begun.
Take care of yourself, don't care about others, be pure, and move forward lightly, so that you can live a wonderful life.

Less greedy
Lao Tzu said: "There is no greater misfortune than discontentment." ”
Indulging one's greed and desires is tantamount to aggravating the shackles of one's heart.
But everything in the world, life does not bring it, death does not bring it, it is all fleeting.
When people are over 50, they should look away and reduce their desires in order to enjoy the abundance and happiness of their souls.
When Mr. Qian Zhongshu was teaching at Tsinghua University, there was no furniture in his home except for a simple table and sofa.
There are no telephones, televisions, or video recorders, and Chen Daoming said after the visit: "In Qian's hometown, the only thing that rings is the medicine pot." ”
The desire is minimal, but the soul is abundant, and Mr. concentrates on reading and writing, sharing the family with his wife and daughter.
In his home, you can smell the fragrance of books, hear calmness, and see calmness, which is the envy of countless people.
There is a saying: "Those who have many desires are tired, those who have few desires are safe, and those who have no desires are strong." ”
The road to simplicity, complexity in the hearts of the people, often contentment, the heart of less desire, is the way to nourish the heart, the way to be good.
05
Less gas
As the saying goes, "All diseases are born of anger." ”
Anger ruins the mood and hurts the body.
If you want to spend the rest of your life happily and healthily, you must control your emotions and be less angry.
If it's not your fault, if you're angry, you're punishing yourself for someone else's fault.
On the other hand, if it is your own fault, where do you have the qualifications and right to be angry?
Chairman Mao once wrote his own 16-character aphorism for health preservation, the first sentence of which was: "Don't be angry when you encounter something." ”
He was open-minded, mild-mannered, and an out-and-out revolutionary optimist.
As he wrote in the poem, "No matter the wind and waves, I walk leisurely", there is almost no moment of anger and anger.
Therefore, even as a national leader who works day and night, he has lived to the age of 83.
As the old saying goes: "I'm not angry when others are angry, and there is no one to replace me when I'm angry." ”
Thinking about being open, looking down, smiling more, and getting angry less is the best way to treat yourself.
