In Beiliuluo Village, Guangxi, there lives a hundred-year-old birthday star Yang Yue who loves to sleep. It is said that people get less sleep when they get older, but Yang Yue is an exception.
Yang Yue’s youngest daughter Li Shouqing said that her mother lived a regular life. Every night at 8 o’clock, Yang Yue starts to go to bed, and usually wakes up naturally at 8 o’clock the next morning. At about 11:00 noon, she began to take a nap again, often not getting up until about 3:00 pm. In this way, Yang Yue sleeps about 16 hours a day. Li Shouqing revealed that his mother had insisted on this sleeping habit for 40 years. In the eyes of her family, she is getting smaller and smaller and has “baby-like sleep”.
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that sleep is the first of health preservation, and high-quality sleep can not only restore the spirit and physical strength, but also help the self-repair of various systems of the human body. Of course, apart from sleeping, Yang Yue’s other schedules are full. When she wakes up, she walks around and moves her body. In his spare time, he also goes to the ground to weed and pick strawberries. After dinner, she still has her own nightlife – dancing square dance. In the square, following the young man twisting his body to the music, Yang Yue was so happy not to mention how happy she was.
Usually, Yang Yue also pays great attention to personal hygiene, keeping the inside and outside of the house clean. When she has nothing to do, she will do storage at home, first sorting and packing things, and then putting important items in a prominent place, and she is busy for an hour or two. “Doing housework and moving is good for the body.” Yang Yue said.
