Sitting motionless for a long time can cause immense pressure on the body's abdominal cavity, hinder blood circulation in the abdominal cavity and lower body, and affect the overall circulation of qi and blood in the body. In addition, on the surface of the kidney meridian and bladder meridian, prolonged sitting can compress the bladder meridian, causing poor circulation of qi and blood in the bladder meridian, causing bladder dysfunction, and thus leading to renal dysfunction. The so-called "prolonged sitting damages the kidney" is this principle.
Response measures:
1. Appropriate exercise
If you have been working continuously for more than 1 hour, you should stop your work and move slightly. Do some stretching, head turning, and body turning exercises. After work, you should participate in physical exercises such as badminton and table tennis. Jogging, brisk walking, and swimming are also good ways to exercise all over the body. Office workers should try to keep their back tightly pressed and lean against the back of the chair. If there are still gaps in the waist, a small cushion can be placed to support the waist, so that the muscles in the lumbosacral region are not too tired.
2. Eat some fruits and yogurt
Eating is a great way to deal with mental fatigue. Apples are very helpful in improving people's mental state. When you feel a decrease in memory, leaving the table and eating an apple is a good choice. In addition, because calcium has the function of relieving muscle tension and regulating endocrine, foods rich in calcium, such as skim yogurt, are also beneficial for relieving fatigue and irritability. Therefore, it is advisable to drink a glass of skim yogurt when you need to increase your attention.
3. Cushion a circular seat cushion
Don't underestimate the pain in your tailbone, it may mean that prolonged incorrect sitting posture has caused damage to your tailbone. To reduce the chance of tailbone injury, it is unnecessary to sit less and move more. If you have already started to feel pain, you need to try to minimize or avoid stress in the painful area.
