4-7-8呼吸法使人快速入睡
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px][b]Now, one scientist claims he has a way of getting insomniacs to slip into a slumber in just 60 seconds – and it doesn't involve prescription drugs or strange lighting. [/b][/size][/font][font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px][b]现在，一位科学家声称，他有办法让失眠症患者60秒钟之内就酣然入眠——不要用处方药物，也不用奇怪的灯光。[/b] [/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]Dubbed the 4-7-8 breathing technique, the method is described as a 'natural tranquiliser for the nervous system' helping to reduce tension in the [url=http://www.enread.com/news/cultureandedu/100702.html]body[/url]. [/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]It was pioneered by Arizona-based Dr Andrew Weill who says on his YouTube channel: 'It is utterly simple, takes almost no time, requires no equipment and can be done anywhere.' [/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]To do the 4-7-8 breathing technique, you first need to exhale completely through your mouth while making a 'whoosh' sound. [/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]Close your mouth and inhale quietly through your nose to a mental count of four. [/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]Now hold your [url=http://www.enread.com/news/cultureandedu/100702.html]breath[/url] for a count of seven. [/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]After this time has elapsed, exhale completely through your mouth, making another whoosh sound for eight second in one large breath. [/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]Now inhale again and repeat the cycle three times for a total of four breaths. [/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]'Note that you always inhale quietly through your nose and exhale audibly through your mouth. The tip of your tongue stays in position the whole time,' Dr Weil says. [/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]'Exhalation takes twice as long as inhalation. The absolute time you spend on each phase is not important; the ratio of 4-7-8 is important.' [/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]The technique is based on pranayama, an ancient Indian practice that means 'regulation of breath.' [/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]The Harvard-trained doctor claims that 4-7-8 is such a powerful technique because it allows oxygen to better fill the lungs. [/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]This extra oxygen can have a relaxing effect on the parasympathetic [url=http://www.enread.com/news/cultureandedu/100702.html]nervous[/url] system, which promotes a state of calmness. [/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]During times of stress, the nervous system becomes over stimulated leading to an imbalance that can cause a lack of sleep. [/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]As well as relaxing the parasympathetic nervous system, Dr Weil says 4-7-8 helps you feel connected to your body and distracts you from everyday thoughts that can disrupt sleep. [/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]He says it can also help [url=http://www.enread.com/news/cultureandedu/100702.html]anxiety[/url].[/size][/font]
