Maintaining a Yin-Yang Balance: Promoting Health and Longevity in the Elderly

February 6, 2024

Elderly people have a yin-excessive and yang-deficient constitution. To correct this problem, it is important to get up early and go to bed early, "go to bed when the rooster crows and get up when the sun rises". It is important not to stay up late or wake up and go for a run when it is already bright outside. It is advisable for elderly people to drink a glass of water before going to bed. This helps to promote smooth bowel movements and dilute the blood, thereby preventing the occurrence of cardiovascular diseases. During the process of defecation, elderly people should avoid excessive exertion, squatting position, and prolonged reading. Otherwise, it may easily trigger the onset of cardiovascular diseases. Elderly people should pay attention to a combination of physical and mental activities to strengthen the circulation of blood in the heart and brain. At the same time, it is important to cultivate hobbies so as to avoid feeling lonely in old age. To extend one's lifespan, it is necessary to achieve a harmonious balance of blood and qi. It is also important to keep the brain active. Combing the hair at least three times a day for no less than 10 minutes each time can help accelerate blood circulation and effectively delay the aging process.
