Suggestions for middle-aged and elderly people: don't carry it hard if you can't sleep, stuff it in the pillow, and sleep soundly at night

Aunt Tong, 63, has suffered from insomnia for more than two years. Even if he finally fell asleep, he could only sleep for four or five hours, and the next day he was in poor spirits and dizzy. Gradually, Aunt Tong became reluctant to go out, did not communicate with others, was in a bad mood, and was particularly prone to anger. Her wife and children were often scolded by her for no reason.

I believe that many friends will have such problems. When they are young, their physical energy recovers quickly. Even after staying up late, they can maintain their energy during the day.

But as you get older, especially in middle age, menopause, and even old age, sleep quality declines dramatically, along with these problems:

● A little movement will cause you to wake up, and it will be very difficult to fall asleep after waking up. Even if you fall asleep again, you will still be in shallow sleep, keep dreaming, and wake up early in the morning every day.

● After taking a nap at noon, I can't fall asleep at night. Although I feel tired, I just can't sleep. I can only rely on sleeping pills to help me fall asleep.

● Decreased memory and concentration. For example, if you buy vegetables at a normal price, you will forget the money in less than 1 minute.

In addition to the above symptoms, insomnia will also be accompanied by dizziness, headache, palpitations, constipation and other problems, long-term reciprocation, and even life-threatening.

People cannot escape insomnia all their lives. Fortunately, some people have only a temporary or temporary experience, while a small number of people are in long-term torture and struggle. The latest data shows that nearly 40% of Chinese residents suffer from sleep disorders, of which nearly 300 million are suffering from insomnia.

Insomnia, Chinese medicine for insomnia, is caused by lack of nourishment or restlessness of the mind, mainly reflected in the two aspects of sleep time and sleep quality, the light is difficult to fall asleep, or insomnia is not insomnia, wakes up every time, or can no longer wake up after waking up. Sleeping soundly, or staying up all night.

Normal sleep depends on the body's "yin and yang secrets", the zang-fu organs are in harmony, the qi and blood are sufficient, and the mind is stable. A person can be insomnia for several days, but not sleepless for several days. Why is this? Because of movement, yang is generated, and yang is consumed by yin. If yin is consumed for a long time, yin will be depleted, and the body will naturally be unable to bear it. The final outcome is not "Yin Ping Yang Secret", but "Yin and Yang Divorce".

There is qi running on the surface of the human body, like the guards around the human body, famous for guarding qi. Wei qi is fixed on yang qi. It travels in the yang element of the human body during the day and travels in the yin element at night, that is, it travels in the yin meridian. As long as the yang qi enters the yin meridian, people want to sleep. After Wei Qi has walked in the Yin meridian, the moment it leaves the Yin meridian, a person will wake up.

For our human body, it is like a Tai Chi. During the day, Yang is generated by movement, and the human body’s yang energy is distributed to the outside, so people are active and sunny during the day, showing a masculine energy. When the movement reaches the limit and the Yin points are consumed excessively, people will be tired and need to rest. When the human body goes into stillness or falls asleep, the yang qi begins to converge and the consumption decreases, which in turn promotes the metaplasia of yin elements. Only when the yin elements are adequately nourished can the human body have sufficient yang qi the next day.

After a simple understanding, you can see why patients with long-term insomnia have wrinkles on their faces and disordered palms. This is due to long-term insomnia, yang does not enter yin, yin cannot be transformed, and the internal organs and six viscera are insufficient.
