  In this rapidly developing society, we are enjoying abundant materials, highly developed science and technology and colorful spiritual life, especially people living in cities. However, while enjoying a good life, we also have to face the effects of "high population density, fast pace of life, environmental pollution and social pressure." At this time, health care has become the focus of many people's attention. Next, I will introduce to you the concepts of health care that urbanites need to understand.

Revealed: The health theory that urbanites need to know

  In response to the various health concerns of urbanites, health care should have targeted strategies.

  First of all, we should realize that health care is multi-level and multi-angle. First, rely on the entire society (government, community) to create a good health environment for urbanites as much as possible. Air, water quality, soil, greening, sound and light, as well as social chaos, political atmosphere, people's customs, etc. are all elements that constitute the living environment. A good living environment in the city is conducive to the health care of the group; a bad living environment in the city is harmful to the physical and mental health of the citizens. We have both painful lessons and successful experiences on this point. The second is to rely on medical forces (hospitals and doctors) to actively play the role of health consultation, health guidance and early diagnosis and treatment of diseases. For a long time, urban hospitals and doctors have mainly been responsible for clinical medicine. With the changes in medical concepts and the expansion of the medical market, hospitals and doctors should also play a major role in the field of urban health care. The third is to rely on urban citizens (individuals and families) to consciously maintain their own health or help others to maintain their health. In life, there are external invasions of evil spirits, a sense of the weather, seven emotions and worries internally, diet, work and rest, and the occurrence of diseases is inevitable. The whole process of prevention before illness, treatment during illness, and recovery after illness must involve the participation or cooperation of health-preserving behaviors. The health-preserving activities at the above three levels have their own emphasis and are related to each other. The organic combination of the three can present a complete urban health picture with national characteristics and characteristics of the times.

  Secondly, we should realize that urban people should pay more attention to spiritual health in their health care. The so-called spiritual health care means that to maintain the body, one must first regulate the mind and mood, so that both physical and spiritual health can be maintained. Ji Kang, a famous litterateur during the Cao and Wei dynasties of the Three Kingdoms, pointed out in his famous "Theory of Health Preservation":

  “The spirit is to the body as the king is to the country. The spirit is irritable in the middle, and the body is lost in the outside. It is like the king is faint at the top, and the country is in chaos below. ”He also provided an example: "If you take medicine to sweat, you may not get it, and you will feel guilty and flow freely; if you haven't eaten in the morning, you will be eager to eat, and Zengzi will mourn, and you will not be hungry for seven days; if you sit down at night, you will be depressed and think about sleep, and if you are worried, you will not rest in peace; if you brush your temples vigorously and have a mellow complexion, you will get it. The anger of a strong man is impressive, and his hair will be crowned." ”

  There is no greater discussion in ancient and modern times than this about the importance of spiritual and emotional recuperation in maintaining physical and mental health. Ji gives an example, if you take medicine in order to sweat, it may not work as expected, but when you feel ashamed, the sweat will not stop; if you don't eat for a day, you will be unbearably hungry, but Zengzi (a disciple of Confucius) went to the funeral of a relative and went without food for several days; All these fully illustrate the important impact of spiritual and emotional activities on physical and mental health.

  The ancients said that "cultivating one's self and bringing peace to the family brings peace to the world." It can be seen that a good body is the foundation of everything, and health preservation is the key to it. Therefore, I hope that everyone will do a good job in health care in their daily lives.
