In ancient times, people generally knelt to talk, read, eat, rest, etc., and the ancients were in very good physical condition. Kneeling means kneeling on the ground with your legs and your buttocks sitting on your feet. At this time, the spine is in a natural state, the lumbar spine is not under special pressure, the back muscles can function normally, and stability can be maintained. For many people, kneeling is a very painful thing. In fact, kneeling is a posture with more advantages than disadvantages. Kneeling is actually a kind of exercise, which has many benefits for our body and waist. Kneeling for 30 seconds every day can prevent diseases, nourish your body and mind 1. Nourish the stomach and help the stomach detoxify The stomach is the largest digestive organ in the human body and has the functions of storing, transporting and digesting food. Therefore, if you adopt a kneeling position in the early morning and practice abdominal breathing every day, it can promote blood circulation in the stomach, improve metabolism, and enhance the stomach's digestive ability. 2. Treat low back pain Kneeling is very good for the waist and can effectively treat low back pain. Most of the causes of low back pain are spinal misalignment, poor blood circulation, etc. In this case, we can improve the condition by kneeling for 30 seconds every morning. 3. Prevent and treat knee arthritis Kneeling upright can prevent and treat knee arthritis. The method is to kneel on the bed with both knees and practice kneeling after getting up in the morning or before going to bed at night. When kneeling, keep your back upright and move your arms as far back as possible, trying to touch the back of your feet. 4. Protect your feet and keep away the cold After dinner, put a pair of slippers on your knees, kneel there, hold on to the sofa, straighten your back and watch TV, and your stomach will feel much better. In addition, walking on your knees can also help "lead the blood downward", and you can try it while wearing a knee pad. The feet are far away from the heart and have relatively insufficient blood supply. When walking on your knees, qi and blood will easily flow to the knees, and the blood supply to the feet will be more sufficient. This is especially true for women with cold hands and feet. It also has a certain effect in dispelling cold. Of course, it is not recommended for patients with lower limb bone diseases. 5. Relieve knee pain and promote blood circulation When we kneel, we can massage the Dubi point, which can effectively relieve knee pain, lower limb paralysis, flexion and extension problems, and athlete's foot, and it can also dredge blood vessels, dispel wind and cold, regulate qi and reduce swelling. 6. Calm the mind and cultivate the body and mind Kneeling can also calm the mind and cultivate the body and mind. Therefore, kneeling when you are irritable can relieve your emotions. Friends who have difficulty calming down can try kneeling. Kneeling properly Just three steps 1. Kneel on both knees with calves touching the ground, upper body straight, buttocks sitting on calves and heels, with a dignified body and temperament, and eyes not looking to the side. 2. When kneeling, do not place the weight of your entire body on your feet with your buttocks. Instead, use the muscles of your legs to slightly support your body so that there is a space as big as a piece of paper between your buttocks and your feet. 3. When kneeling, we should straighten the spine and feel that the body is slightly floating. This will not only help us develop a good kneeling posture but also will not hurt our knees. Kneeling is a very practical way to maintain health. If you insist on kneeling for 30 seconds in the early morning or at night, it can nourish the stomach, cure low back pain, prevent and treat knee arthritis, and also cultivate your body and mind. |
