There are many schools of health preservation and longevity in ancient China. A school represented by Laozi and Zhuangzi advocates rest. Lao Tzu believes that "life has a period of time, and it is limited to a hundred years. Those who protect it can reach a thousand years." Legend has it that Lao Tzu lives to his 300s. How long does
people live?
"Lingshu·Tiannian" says: "A person dies when he lives a hundred years old." "Su Wen·Ancient Innocence Theory" also says: "Everyone can live a lifespan, and he will die after he lives a hundred years old." Modern scholars have proved from multiple research that a person's lifespan should be over 100 years old. Most scholars believe that at around 120 years old, some scholars believe that they can live to 180 years old, while Soviet scholar Sukhalev believes that people can live to 400 years old. During the 1979 census, my country discovered a 142-year-old man, Wu Yunqing, . It is reported that Wu Yunqing is a Buddhist. He meditates and rests at night and rarely sleeps flat.
Why do modern people rarely live to be over a hundred years old?
One of the reasons is that you don’t know how to rest. Yin-Yang Theory believes that movement is yang, stillness is yin; outside is yang, inside is yin. The foundation of life is based on yin and yang. Only when yin and yang are balanced can we live long. Modern people pay more attention to nourishing yang (mobile nourishing), not paying attention to nourishing yin (quiet care), only emphasize external training of muscles, bones, and skin, and internal training, which artificially causes yin and yang imbalances.
Maintaining yin energy and reducing dissipation is one of the secrets of longevity. As for the modern people's life slogan "Time is money, efficiency is life", it is more important to cultivate yin energy. " Neijing " points out: "The person who lives in the yin essence is worshipped, and the person who lives in the yang essence is descended from the yang essence." That is to say, those who have strong yin energy in the sky live long. Protecting yin energy and reducing dissipation are also the foundation for maintaining yang energy. In a person's life, the yin energy is very easy to dissipate, so maintaining yin and nourishing yin through quiet rest is the foundation of longevity. The essence, blood, fluid, fluid, etc. in the human body belong to yin, The ancient health care workers also used essence to nourish the brain and swallow body fluid and throat fluid to nourish the yin .
Why do women mostly live longer than men?
is Because women generally have more stillness and less movement, the yin energy is too strong, and the yin energy is dissipated less, and the cell division is slower . Men like to move less stillness, have strong temperament, strong qi, dissipate more yin energy, and accelerate cell division, so their lifespan is not as long as that of women.
From the perspective of bionics , the reason why turtle and snake live long is inseparable from its strong yin energy. The hygienic tiger , and the leopard has a short lifespan, and this is the reason. Taoist . The Buddhist health care method is mainly about resting. The old Chinese doctors should regulate their breathing (adjust breathing) when treating doctors and taking pulses. Calligraphers and painters should concentrate on their writing and painting, and they should keep their minds in mind. They are also methods of resting. Therefore, Taoists, Buddhist health care workers and calligraphers and painters generally have long lifespans. The average lifespan of more than 400 Chinese medicine practitioners recorded in history is over 80 years old. The way to live longer is to nourish the yin energy .
In nature, yin energy mostly exists in oceans, rivers, lakes, deep mountains and dense forests, and fields with overgrown flowers and plants. There are many anions there, which can replenish the yin energy of the human body and is an ideal place for rest.

Li Qingyun believes that human life span is long and short, which is dominated by vitality. He vividly compared the care and the uncaring energy to the place where candles are stored: if the lit candle is placed in the cage, the burning time will be relatively long; if the candle is placed in the wind and rain, the burning time will be much shorter, and it may even be extinguished immediately. The same is true for health preservation. He admired Lao Tzu's words very much: "Don't work your body, don't shake your essence, and don't let your thoughts linger (entangled). Less thinking to nourish the spirit, few desires to nourish the essence, and few words to nourish the energy." He said that this wonderful purpose is often ignored by mediocre people who are not good at maintaining health.
He pays great attention to maintenance. He usually does not smoke, drink alcohol, or drink tea. He eats regularly and regularly, goes to bed early and gets up early. If there is anything strange, it is that he loves to store long nails and often uses small bamboo tubes to protect his fingers. When the nails grow to about six inches, he cuts them off and puts them in a wooden box to store. When the penis dies, he has a small box of nail shells left.
When talking about his daily life and diet, Li Qingyun said: "If you can't eat enough, your stomach and intestines will be damaged; if you can't sleep for a long time, your essence will be dissipated. has been around for more than 200 years, and you have never eaten too much food, nor do you have to sleep for too long."
He also warned people: if you are not careful in cold and warm, if you walk too hard, you will suffer from alcohol, sex, lust and pleasure, you will suffer from the body. If you are extremely injured, you will die. Therefore, according to the health preservation techniques of our ancestors, we should not walk quickly, our eyes should not look at each other, our ears should not be too extreme, our ears should not be too exhausted, and our lying down will not be too extreme; we should first wear cold and wear heat first, we should first eat hunger and eat thirst and drink thirst, and we should not be too frequent, and we should not be too frequent; we should not be happy, angry, sorrow and happiness should be tied to our hearts, and we should not be moved by wealth, honor and disgrace. It is also said that hunger, cold, pain and itchyness are not allowed to be replaced by parents, aging, sickness and death are not allowed to be replaced by wife. Only the way to love and be self-improvement is the principle and key to health preservation.
