论书画的养生功能

Keep - fit Function of Painting and Calligcaphy

以前医学界常说:"病从口入"。现代医学发现从心入的病难以治疗。如果一个人长期处在焦虑、忧愁、妒忌的状态,会得高血压、心脏病、胃病、糖尿病、甚至癌症。所以良好的心态是健康的首要条件。轻快悦耳的轻音乐能使人消除疲劳,获得舒缓柔和的快感。目前音乐的医学疗法正在一些发达国家推广,其实中国的书画跟音乐一样是有医学疗效和养生功能。

As the old medical saying goes, illness finds its way in from the mouth, yet what the modern medicine holds is that the illness that finds its way from the mind is hard to cure. Being in a state of anxiety, grief, and jealousy for long, one may suffer from hypertension, heart disease, stomach trouble, diabetes and even cancer, therefore a good state of mind is the primary condition of health. Pleasant light music can relieve people of their tiredness and help them get mild pleasant sensation, so medical music therapy is now being popularized in some developed countries. In fact, Chinese painting and calligraphy is as good as music in medical efficacy and keep - fit function.
