Staying up late is a normal thing, but often stay up late can have a very bad effect on the body, I overlooked this article, reproduced here, perhaps to often stay up late peers will help.
The trick to sleep
According to medicine and my experience, observation, a person really sleep only two hours at most, the rest are a waste of time, lying on the pillow dreaming, no one does not dream. As for waking up and feeling that he did not dream, it is because he forgot.
Usually a person sleeps two hours is enough, why do people have to sleep seven or eight hours? That is your habit of lying on the pillow to rest, not that we need so long to sleep, especially meditation do kung fu people know, noon as long as the eyes closed for three minutes really asleep, equal to sleep two hours, but to the right time of noon. At night, we need to fall asleep at midnight, five minutes is equal to six hours.
On this time of learning and big, with the laws of the universe, the laws of the Earth, I Ching yin and yang, and you will feel, there is a force down below the heart, and the Dantian (kidney) power fusion, the so-called “water and fire both,” the open, that you sleep enough, the spirit of a hundred times.
So people who have insomnia or really want to stay up late at night, must sleep even for 20 minutes at the hour of the first hour, and train yourself to fall asleep even if you can’t sleep.
It’s bad that you won’t want to sleep after about 12:30 after the midnight hour. Worse, by the time it is almost dawn, four or five o’clock, five or six o’clock dawn, you are sleepy again and want to sleep, at this time if a sleep, the day will be dizzy.
Therefore, people who want to work late at night, even if there is a big thing in the day, we must set down and sleep it for half an hour, and do not sleep when you want to sleep at dawn, that is enough spirit for the day.
But insomniacs are past twelve o’clock, tossing and turning in bed, and as a result, fall asleep at dawn, to the next afternoon are drowsy, so you will feel insomnia, sleep deprivation, in fact, you have no experience.
Sleep and health
During the Warring States period, the famous doctor Wen Zhi said to King Wei of Qi: “My way of health puts sleep at the top of the list, people and animals only sleep to grow, sleep helps the spleen and stomach digest food, so, so sleep is the first major tonic for health, people do not sleep one night, its loss for a hundred days is difficult to recover.”
21:00 pm to 5:00 am is the effective sleep time. People are animals, and plants belong to the same biological, daytime (5:00 am to 21:00 pm) activities to generate energy, the night (21:00 pm to 5:00 am) began to cell division, the energy into new cells, is the human body cells to recuperate, push the new time, but also people with the rotation of the earth to the side of the back to the sun. Yin is the main quiet, is a good time for people to sleep, rest at this time, in order to have a good physical and mental state. This is the same reason that babies who sleep a lot grow fat and fast, while children who love to sleep are stunted.
Sleep is a major function of health, raising is to replace the corrupt cells with a large number of healthy cells, such as a night of sleep can not be replaced by new cells. If say a million cells perish during the day, a night only to make up for half a million cells, then your body will have a deficit, a long time, people will chaff, like chaff carrot. Why are there centenarians in the world? Because they go to bed every night at 21 o’clock sharp.
Plants absorb the energy of sunlight and grow at night, so the sound of plucking can be heard at night in the crops in the countryside. Humans and plants belong to the same biological, cell division time period is roughly the same, miss the good night sleep, the new life of the cell far from catching up with the extinction, people will prematurely aging or disease, people want to go with nature, should follow the sun, that is, the sky awake I wake up, the sky sleep I sleep. People are as small as dust in front of the sun, “against the sun” is a stupid choice, sooner or later will be the sun’s huge gravitational force to collapse. This is the objective truth.
In real life, many people have difficulty falling asleep, sleep quality is not high. Poor sleep is a comprehensive problem, such as excessive liver fire, sleep alert; excess stomach fire, sleep restless; liver yin deficiency, sleep tired.
Second, sleep and disease
Modern habits and lifestyles bring a lot of negative impact on people’s bodies to form the “four diseases”: fruit disease, refrigerator disease, television and computer disease, stay up late disease. The liver has a characteristic: lying is the return of blood, sitting and standing outward blood supply.
Ziji (23:00-1:00), in fact, 23:00 is the beginning of a new day, not 0:00, which is a misunderstanding we make. Liver and gall bladder phase, mutual family, 23:00 bile meridian open, if you do not sleep, a big injury to the bile, because the eleven viscera are dependent on the bile, bile gas a deficiency, the whole body viscera function down, metabolic power, immunity have dropped, the human body functions greatly reduced, bile gas support central nervous, bile gas injury prone to various mental illnesses, such as depression, schizophrenia, obsessive-compulsive disorder, mania, etc.. The bile has to be replaced at the hour of the son, the bile meridian is gradually flourishing, if people do not lie down, the bile turnover is unfavorable, too thick and crystallized into stones, which will lead to gallstones, if the bile is removed, once removed, the cowardly, the whole body’s immunity is reduced by more than 50%, so it can not be removed, but to use its huge potential of the system to turn it off.
The liver meridian is at its peak at the ugly hour, the ugly hour (1:00-3:00) without sleep, the liver can not lift off the toxic substances, produce fresh blood, because the blood collection is not conducive, the face is blue, long prone to all kinds of liver disease, now some people’s liver is not very good, especially in Europe on average 4 people have a major or minor triplets, mostly because of the violation of the natural law after the son of the hour without sleep caused. Hepatitis A is more treatable, but hepatitis B is very difficult to treat. In the case of hepatitis B carriers, the virus has reached the cells because they often do not sleep at night and are too weak, which means that the order is too chaotic. In other words, the virus of hepatitis B has reached the cells, but now it does not have the ability to cause hepatitis, when the human body is at its weakest point it forms into hepatitis, and hepatitis B means 40% – 60% of cirrhosis in the future. Smart people are the ones who should understand the relationship between heaven, earth and people, and the ones who are not smart are the ones who should be eliminated.
How much damage does garbage sleep bring to the liver?
The liver is the master of drainage, not sleeping past the zipper can cause unfavorable drainage of the liver, liver qi stagnation, visible irritability, headache and dizziness, red eyes, eye pain, tinnitus, deafness, chest and rib distension, women’s menstrual disorders, constipation, can also cause insufficient liver qi ascension, people will be tired of the eyes and tired, waist and knees sore and weak, dizziness, insomnia, palpitation, mental trance, heavy will faint in the street, unconscious.
The liver has the function of blood collection and blood regulation. Not sleeping past the zi zi hour will cause insufficient blood in the liver, which will also cause bleeding symptoms such as vomiting, nosebleeds, subcutaneous bleeding, gum bleeding, bleeding under the eyes and bleeding from the ears.
The liver is open to the eyes, so not sleeping past the hour of the zipper will cause liver deficiency, which will lead to blurred vision, presbyopia, night blindness, photophobia, tears in the wind, and other symptoms, as well as glaucoma, cataract, fundus arteriosclerosis, retinopathy and other eye diseases.
The liver is the master of tendons, and its Hua is in the claws. Not sleeping past the zipper can cause a lack of liver blood, which can lead to tendon pain, numbness, flexion and extension difficulties, spasms and convulsions, easily causing gray nails, calcium deficiency, patellar tenderness, epilepsy, osteoporosis, etc.
Liver and heart, not sleeping past the zipper can cause liver blood deficiency, because the heart is the main blood vessel, the liver has the function of storage and regulation of blood, will cause insufficient blood supply to the heart, causing symptoms such as heart panic, heart fibrillation, serious formation of heart disease, hypertension and other cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
Liver and spleen, not sleeping past ziwu will cause liver and stomach disharmony, because liver helps spleen and stomach digestion, because liver qi is too weak to help spleen and stomach digestion, so that people have poor spleen and stomach digestion, manifested as thick tongue coating, which will cause the collapse of middle qi in the long run.
Liver and lung, not sleeping past zi zhi, unable to nourish yin and submerge yang, liver yin loss, causing excessive liver fire to burn the lungs, appearing dry cough, or cough, coughing phlegm and blood and other symptoms of wood and fire interfering with gold, easily leading to various skin diseases such as psoriasis.
Liver and kidney, do not sleep past the zipper, liver deficiency leads to kidney deficiency, due to liver and kidney homologation, prone to reproductive system diseases, infertility, bone disease, dental disease, hair loss, diabetes, kidney failure and other diseases.
Third, the method of sleep
Traffic rules – you do not understand it is easy to have an accident. For example, 23:00 to 3:00 a.m. for the son ugly time, the most active bile and liver meridian, the liver and gallbladder to return blood, “lie down to return blood, stand up to supply blood”. If you lie down every night around 22 o’clock, quietly do not talk, by 23 o’clock, also fell asleep. The liver and gallbladder begin to return blood, filtering out the toxic blood and producing fresh blood, and by the age of 100 there will be no gallstones, no hepatitis, no cysts, and other diseases. If you stay up until 1:00 every day, the liver can’t return blood, toxic blood can’t be removed, fresh blood can’t be produced, and the gallbladder can’t change bile, so these people are prone to gallstones, cysts, major and minor triplets and various diseases.
In the European region, an average of four people have a hepatitis virus carrier, which is called not know the rules. Half an hour before bedtime it is best not to talk, and even more so when sleeping, such as a talk, the lung meridian moves, and then the heart meridian moves, (because the heart and lungs together for the upper focus) people are prone to enter a state of excitement, so it is difficult to fall asleep.
21:00-23:00 is the time of Hai. The Sanjiao meridian is flourishing at Hai, and the Sanjiao leads to all the veins. Sleep at the hour of the day, all the veins are moistened, so the centenarians have a common feature that 21:00 (the hour of the day) before going to sleep. Women who want to maintain a long time look good, should do early to sleep early.
Sleep to close the window, can not open the fan, can not open the air conditioning, people get sick a lot with this, because people in sleep, the circulation of Qi and blood slow, body temperature drops, the body will form a Yang layer on the surface, this Yang layer it makes people called “ghosts do not invade”, what does it mean, Yang Qi people, do not have nightmares, is this Yang Qi, accounted for The upper hand. Open air conditioning, open the fan, the situation is different, open the window, the window is the wind, the wind into the tendons, if open air conditioning, there is wind, wind into the tendons, cold into the bones, get up in the morning, the body yellow, face yellow, the back of the neck tendons hard, sore bones, and even some people began to fever, this is the wind and cold invaded the tendons and bones, which is also the gas injury. If you say sleep at night without opening the window, not open the air conditioner, not open the fan, even the door is closed, the best effect, if hot, the door open, the window closed, the effect is a little worse, but he did not get up the next morning weakness, back stiffness.
Some people open the living room air conditioner, open the bedroom door, and directly open the air conditioner to sleep is similar, after opening the air conditioner, the air conditioner that cold into the bone, so the heart chills, where the heart, the heart in the brain marrow, brain for the marrow of the sea, the marrow has cold, then certainly the heart is cold, how to do, replenish the kidney Yang, replenish the middle qi, when to replenish the heart is not cold, the fever receded, the cold went out. Sleep as early as possible, sleep late, hurt the less Yang qi, inevitably the next day is tired and weak, to close the windows, do not turn on the air conditioning, electric fans, to protect Yang qi.
Liver and gallbladder in the lower jiao, if the stomach problems, he will appear to sleep restless, one is the stomach cold, if the person’s stomach Yang is already insufficient, too much green tea, there will be stomach cold, stomach cold when people are not sleeping well, or eat too much with mud and sand, the stomach vaguely cold, is definitely not sleeping well.
Another is the stomach heat, that is, heat upward, the mouth gasping are hot, like this situation is also bad sleep; another is the stomach dry, dry mouth and tongue, the stomach feels dry;.
Another is the stomach thick, the smell of taste, stomach thick, this situation is to eat this thick and greasy taste, some people eat seafood, eat fish, eat chicken stew, taste good fresh, eat more, delicious can not be used, these things in the inside to dilute it, not dilute it, it is too thick in the taste, so this is also bad sleep;.
Another abdominal rise, the abdomen is up bulging, also can not sleep, tossing and turning can not sleep; another is the stomach is too weak, cold sweat, which is also not good sleep, these reasons may form the stomach is not peaceful, the stomach is not peaceful sleep.
When sleeping, the limbs should be warm, the limbs should be warm, because the limbs are the essence of Yang, this we all know, the limbs are not warm, it is certainly a lack of kidney Yang, should be covered before going to bed to warm the hands and feet, hands and feet and navel, behind the door of life should be covered.
Sleep method varies from person to person, the following 3 practices are introduced.
1, simple leg press before going to bed, then sit naturally on the bed, overlapping hands on the legs, natural breathing, feel the whole body pores with the breath of a closed, if you can tear yawn the best effect, to sleep when you want to fall down and sleep.
2, lying on your back, natural breathing, feel the breath like the spring breeze, first melting the big toe, then the other toes, then feet, calves, thighs gradually melted. If you are still awake, do it again from the beginning.
3, people who fall asleep quickly can lie on the right side, the right palm to the right ear. The right palm is fire, the ear is water, the two form the water and fire that is to help, in the human body to form the heart and kidneys together. For a long time, nourish the heart and nourish the kidneys.
Sleep must get up early, even in winter, not more than 6 o’clock to get up, spring, summer and autumn try to get up before 5 o’clock, because people get up at c (3:00-5:00) when the lung meridian is strong, so that the lung gas can be stretched to comply with the Yang Qi Shu long, to complete the metabolism, purge down the turbid gas, so that the lung gas clear, which helps to nourish the lungs and in line with the sun’s heavenly potential to rise the body Yang Qi Otherwise, it is like an engine, after this good time it is difficult to start the human yang, the human yang accumulates in the lower part of the human body can not be launched by the life gate upward to rise, will form obscene gas, seriously damage the physical and mental health of people.
5:00 am to 7:00 am is the most prosperous time for the human colon, the human body needs to metabolize the turbidity out of the body, at this time, if you do not get up, the large intestine can not get full activity, can not well complete the turbidity function, so that the turbidity stays and the formation of toxins, endangering the human blood and viscera hundred bones. 7:00 am to 9:00 am human stomach meridian is the most prosperous, 9:00 am to 11:00 am human spleen meridian is the most prosperous, when the human digestive absorption and transportation capacity is the best, if you do not get up at this time, the human stomach acid will seriously corrode the gastric mucosa, the human body in the best absorption of nutrients time can not get nutrition, long-term will suffer from spleen and stomach disease, resulting in malnutrition, collapse of the middle gas. So do not stay in bed, stay in bed will cause dizziness, exhaustion, lack of sleep, but should get up on time, many great people in history are the habit of getting up at three or four o’clock, such as Washington, Napoleon, Emperor Kangxi, Zeng Guofan, etc.. In addition early rising can increase the effectiveness of work, as the saying goes: “three days early rising, a day of work”.
Modern medicine proves that people who go to bed early and get up early have less mental stress and are less likely to suffer from mental illness. Do not go out too early in the morning to exercise, because in the morning before the sun does not come out, the underground Zhang Qi, turbidity is going up (especially in the city), these gases on the human body damage is very serious.
Three important things to maintain the body, a sleep, two convenience, three diet, the rest of the living, clothing, etc. are all auxiliary.
Sleep is the first of the three things. However, the stomach is not harmonious, night sleep restless, so to facilitate the second. And the diet is uncontrolled, hunger and excess, the stomach and intestines will be injured, and nutrition is reduced. Sleep is mainly to calm the mind, the mind to the main, should be in line with the age of the strong, up to seven hours to eight hours, more sleep will be dizzy dizzy eyes red swollen, limbs weak, childhood must sleep a full eight hours, or more than nine hours do not hinder, old or sick up to six hours is sufficient.
Sleep in the disease warning can not be ignored
Attention should be paid to.
(a) sleep should be early, do not pass ten o’clock, the elderly to eight o’clock for the right, do not pass nine o’clock. Where the delivery of eleven o’clock, for the Yang Sheng time, belongs to the kidneys, insomnia at this time, the kidney water will be deficient, the heart and kidneys are connected, water deficiency is fire, most likely to hurt the spirit. Do not sleep with sleeping pills to help sleep.
(B) the pillow should not think about calculating future events, sleep should not think about everything, nasal breath, their own quiet listening to its gas, from coarse to fine, from fine to micro-fine and rest. See this body as nothing, or as sugar into the water, into nothing, natural sleep.
(3) If there are thoughts, can not rest, do not turn around on the pillow to think, this is the most depleted, can sit up for a while and then sleep.
(4) such as at noon, that is, 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 a.m., for the time of Yin Sheng, is the heart, if you can not sleep at this time, you can sit quietly for a quarter of an hour, close your eyes to nourish the mind, then the heart is strong. Anyone who has heart disease should pay attention to this two times a day, then the vital energy is stronger, no heartbeat abdominal discharge or urinary frequency of disease.
(E) summer up should be early, winter up should be late. In the north, it is advisable to prevent cold, such as in Guangdong and Guizhou provinces, early rise to prevent disease in the mountains and miasma. Do not sleep on your back after eating, get up early if at 3:00 to 5:00 in Yin time, do not be depressed and angry at this time, it will damage the lungs and hurt the liver, we hope to pay attention to.
