There are two best times a day for people to work and study. The plan of the day lies in the morning, after a night of recuperation, the yang energy is also in the peak period of germination, so in the morning people are energetic, work and study efficiency is high, this needless to say, everyone knows.
When is the best time to do so? I think many of my friends might not hesitate to say "night". Because now working overtime at night and putting the most of their work at night is already a habit for a considerable number of people, especially many mental workers, who feel that the night is quieter, in a better state, and more suitable for their work.
In fact, it is not the case, Chinese medicine says that heaven and man correspond, at night Yang Qi collects, Yin Qi rises, heaven and earth fall asleep, people should also follow the opportunity of heaven and earth, sleep at night, and be active during the day. So another of our best time to work and study is during the day, and since the morning has been used, this time is of course in the afternoon.
Some people may say, people are sleepy in the afternoon, can the energy be good? Besides, with so much time in the afternoon, can you concentrate all the time? I would say that most of the people who are sleepy in the afternoon are because they didn't take a good nap at noon, or they didn't get a good rest the night before, and it's no wonder that others are sleepy.
We also have a peak of energy in the afternoon, when we are very efficient in both work and study, that is, around 16 o'clock, which is the time of application.
In Chinese culture, the twelve hours correspond to the twelve genera, and Shen Shi belongs to the monkey. The nature of monkeys is lively, and the ancients called this time in the afternoon the Shen Shi of the monkeys, which is to use the lively nature of monkeys to metaphorically use the lively nature of monkeys to metaphorize people who are very energetic and energetic during this time.
Monkeys are not only lively and agile, but also smart and cute, so Shenshi is also a time when people have the best memory and are very active in thinking. The ancients said, "Teach in the morning, and learn in the evening", "Chao" is the morning, and "Xi" refers to the Shen time in the afternoon.
In the morning, when the mental state is at its best, I learn new knowledge, and in the afternoon, when my memory is at its best, I review and memorize it, so that what I have learned can be digested and absorbed in time and will not be forgotten.
Of course, the reason why Shen Shi people have active thinking and good memory is more accurate is because Shen Shi is dominated by the bladder meridian, and the bladder meridian and the kidney meridian are on the surface, their functions are connected, qi and blood are connected, and the kidney and brain are closely related.
"The Yellow Emperor's Neijing" says that "the kidney hides the essence, and the essence grows the marrow", and "the brain is the sea of marrow", so the function of the brain, in layman's terms, whether the brain is good or not, and whether it turns ineffective is largely determined and regulated by the kidneys. When the bladder meridian qi and blood are at its most vigorous, the function of the kidneys will also be regulated and improved when the bladder meridian qi and blood are strong, and correspondingly, the human brain will be better than usual at this time.
In fact, the bladder meridian not only indirectly improves the function of the brain by regulating the qi and blood conditions of the kidneys, but also "visits the brain in person, directs and coordinates" - the bladder meridian is a meridian that runs through the whole body, starting from the eyes, descending to the little toe of the foot, up to the Baihui acupoint on the top of the head, and entering the brain from the top of the head to connect with the brain, which can be said to be the internal and external "enveloping" of the entire brain.
In addition, it is also the "sea of yang veins" - the "left and right arms" of the Du pulse (located on the left and right sides of the Du pulse), which runs through the entire yang side (back) of the human body, and is the meridian with the most yang energy among the twelve main meridians.
And Shen Shi is on duty when the bladder meridian is on duty, the qi and blood are the most vigorous and the function is the best, so that the brain in the busy and tired can be replenished with qi and blood in time, and when the qi and blood are sufficient, the work will naturally have energy. It's like when we're too hungry, we're exhausted. When the meal is full, the spirit and spirit are all back.
But some people are just exceptions, as he gets more and more tired in the afternoon, as the working hours are extended, and at three or four o'clock he begins to fight with his eyelids, yawning for days, and being sleepy. What is the reason for this?
Obviously, this is a manifestation of weakness and lack of qi and blood in the bladder meridian yang!
Because after most of the day's work and study, by three or four o'clock in the afternoon, the major organs of the human body are already a little tired, and the body's yang energy is in a stage of rapid decline.
If the bladder meridian is very weak and the qi and blood are insufficient, it is impossible to disperse the power to support the other organs of the body and provide qi and blood support to the brain. Do you think people can not be sleepy?
Therefore, if we want to be in good spirits, we must nourish the bladder meridian so that it, the "yang energy storehouse", can provide us with timely and effective support when necessary.
So how do we maintain the bladder meridian so that it maintains sufficient qi and blood?
The first is to eat well (not to eat partially, not to diet, not to eat indiscriminately) and to sleep well (especially the "meridian nap"), which are the two most basic points.
On this basis, you can buy a small health care hammer, if it is a man, it is recommended to buy a small rolling pin that is more than a foot long, and use it every day before going to bed to beat the bladder meridian on your back through your clothes, relax the meridians and activate the meridians, and promote the circulation of qi and blood in the bladder meridians.
The back is very close to our internal organs, and on the bladder meridian on the back, there are dorsal acupoints corresponding to the five internal organs. If the five internal organs are compared to the electrical appliances, then the Yu acupoints are the functional adjustment switches of each electrical appliance, through which we can directly adjust the qi, blood and functional status of the five internal organs.
Tapping the bladder meridian on the back is the easiest and most effective way to stimulate these acupuncture points, and it is also a good exercise and stimulation for the back muscles, muscles and bones, especially when our body is very tired, it is also a good way to relax.
You can tap the bladder meridian on your back before going to bed, or between work, especially at three or four o'clock in the afternoon, when the bladder meridian is the main time, which can quickly relieve fatigue, improve yang energy, and invigorate the spirit.
