Standing on tiptoes every day can nourish the kidneys and maintain health. Do some head exercises such as bending forward, turning the neck, and leaning back during work breaks, or gently tapping the head with empty fists.

The best way to nourish your liver is to close your eyes

A person's spirit can be drained away through his eyes. There is a great health-preserving method in ancient times: just closing your eyes is nourishing your liver. Because "the liver stores blood" and the liver governs the eyes. For example, dry eyes and tears in the wind are both liver diseases. Tears in the wind are due to insufficient astringent function of the liver; dry eyes are due to insufficient essence and blood in the liver, so the best way to nourish the liver is to close your eyes. Close your eyes and calm your spirit. Lightly press your eyelids with your index finger and rub them gently until your eyeballs feel warm and swollen. You will then feel your anger subside.

Both eyes simultaneously focus on a large fixed object in the distance, rotating the eyes from left to top, then to right, then bottom and back to left, while keeping the head still, and move the eyes 10 times. Then move from the right to the top, to the left, to the bottom and back to the right, rotating your eyes 10 times. It has the effect of eliminating eye fatigue and improving vision.
