1. "Three Hearts" Illuminate the Way Ahead
Although traditional Chinese medicine has a development history of thousands of years, with the development of society, changes in the natural environment, and improvements in people's living conditions, the body's constitution is changing, and the spectrum of diseases is also undergoing significant changes. Therefore, it is necessary for traditional Chinese medicine practitioners to constantly explore and strive for progress
In the ancient Chinese medicine book "Yuanji Qiwei", it is recorded that "the eye is one of the orifices. It can be seen with light, absorbing the vastness of mountains and rivers, and the fineness of the slightest light, understanding the height of clouds and the depth of springs and sand..."
2. Give your eyes a break
Nowadays, digital products such as computers and mobile phones are ubiquitous in people's daily lives. Staring at electronic screens for a long time can bring endless troubles to the eyes. To fundamentally solve eye problems, it is necessary to establish a sense of giving the eyes a break in the heart.
So, when looking at electronic screens in work and life, it's best to take a break of 5-10 minutes every 40-50 minutes; During rest, you can get up and walk out the window to gaze into the distance, or close your eyes to rest and relax your eye muscles.
In addition to avoiding bad habits such as excessive eye use, it is also important to avoid looking at electronic screens while moving in daily life. It is best not to look at the electronic screens of devices such as mobile phones, tablets, and laptops when taking transportation such as subways, high-speed trains, and airplanes. Because both devices and people cannot achieve complete stability while moving, in dynamic states, the target object is uncertain, and the eyes always need to focus, which makes it easier to pay more attention to fatigue.
Nowadays, more and more children are suffering from eye diseases at an early age, so teenagers and children should also pay attention to protecting their eyes in their daily lives. In terms of diet, one should not be picky and eat less sweets; Pay attention to strengthening physical exercise on weekdays, especially sports such as table tennis and badminton that allow the eyes to move with the ball, which is very helpful for exercising children's eye muscles; During homework classes, close eye contact should not be used for too long. After reading and studying, it is important to rest in a timely manner; During breaks, you can do eye exercises to clear the eye meridians and relieve eye fatigue.
3. Life care and nurturing "smart eyes"
Daily health preservation requires mastering the laws of life activities, following the guidance of relevant theories in the Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon, and following the laws of seasonal changes and day and night in accordance with nature, with a focus on regulating yin and yang. Therefore, it is necessary to adjust the relationship between the body's physiology and the external environment in a timely manner, maintain a coordinated and balanced state of the body. In this way, not only will one's own complexion improve, but their eyes will also become brighter.
To protect the eyes, it is also important to pay attention to one's own emotional balance, as excessive emotions can also affect eye health, such as long-term worry or excessive grief and anger, which may affect liver and spleen function and cause symptoms such as blurred vision.
4. Methods for alleviating dry eye syndrome
The main cause of dry eye syndrome is a decrease in blinking frequency, or external stimuli that prevent the eyes from receiving lubrication from tears, resulting in a series of symptoms such as dryness, foreign body sensation, and photophobia in the eyes.
On weekdays, artificial tears can be used to relieve dryness in the eyes, while also paying attention to eye hygiene, emphasizing scientific eye use, and avoiding staying up late can effectively alleviate dry eye syndrome.
Having a balanced diet, coordinating the body and mind, ensuring sleep, avoiding overwork, maintaining energy, and having a symmetrical and coordinated physique will naturally reveal a healthy and beautiful state from the inside out. Maintaining this state for a long time is necessary to cultivate healthy and shining eyes for oneself.
