Although Lu You has experienced ups and downs in his life, he still wrote at least 30,000 poems, and in ancient China, where the average person was 30 to 40 years old, he lived to the age of 85 before he died, which can be said to be the star of longevity at that time. So, what is the secret of Lu you's longevity?
Optimism
When Lu You was young, because of his loyalty to the king and patriotism, he was rejected and suppressed by the traitors, resulting in a poor career. He returned to his hometown and began a idyllic life like a crane.
Exercise appropriately
Now to promote national fitness, we must often move our muscles and bones, relax our mood, and Lu You has also done this. Lu You has always regarded sorting out books and sweeping the floor and wiping the table as activities to exercise his body. Sweeping the floor is an activity within the reach of the ability, which can dredge the blood and qi, enliven the bones and muscles, and do both housework and exercise. When Lu You was idle in the countryside, he often engaged in some manual labor of collecting firewood and cutting grass, and he believed that it was beneficial to do a little labor within his ability. This kind of health experience of the ancients is still very applicable to today's people, and I hope that everyone will take time to do more activities.
Reasonable diet
Lu You mentioned in many verses the benefits of eating porridge for longevity, porridge is conducive to digestion, easy to be absorbed by the human body, and has great benefits for longevity. Lu You to the old age, basic vegetarian, he believes that vegetarianism is frugal and healthy, but Lu You is not completely vegetarian, he believes that eating meat also has certain benefits, not absolutely prohibited, he advocates "vegetarian-based, and meaty"
Good habits
Lu You was so deeply aware of the method of washing his feet and maintaining health, and he insisted on washing his feet with hot water before going to bed. The eighty-two-year-old Lu You wrote a very famous poem that is still familiar to this day: "The old man does not return to the nongsang, and the chicken and dolphin have not forgotten." Washing his feet and going to bed is really fast, and the young grandson gradually dissolves the soup. "This means that people are old and no longer farm, but they still can't forget the housework such as raising chickens and feeding pigs." At night, the little grandchild boils a pot of hot water, waits to wash his feet, and then goes to bed.
Lu You regards "washing your feet and going to bed" as a very happy thing, not exaggerated. The foot is considered to be the second heart of the human body, soaking the feet with hot water before going to bed can make the feet warm, promote blood circulation, dredge the meridians, and also sleep peacefully.
