The benefits of flying kites for health
Flying kites in spring is very beneficial to one's physical health. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that those who fly kites bask in the warm sunshine and spring breeze, which has the benefits of "relieving internal heat and enhancing physical fitness." The historical book "Continued History of Natural History" also states that "flying kites, opening your mouth and looking up, can relieve heat. Research in modern health medicine has also shown that hiking and flying kites in the bright spring can stretch the muscles and allow the body to move continuously with the flying kites, thereby activating all limbs and bones; At the same time, by fully breathing in fresh air, exhaling the old and absorbing the new, it can promote the metabolism of the human body, improve blood circulation, and thus achieve the effects of eliminating winter qi stagnation, dispelling diseases, and exercising. In addition, when flying kites, facing the blue sky with both eyes and flying kites in various shapes can eliminate eye muscle fatigue, regulate and improve vision, and prevent myopia and amblyopia.
In recent years, some hospitals and sanatoriums at home and abroad have adopted the "kite therapy" to treat mental depression, neurasthenia, and intellectual disability in children, and have also achieved miraculous therapeutic effects.
Flying kites is also a brain building exercise that requires wholehearted dedication. Just dealing with the relationship between kite flying and wind direction and speed requires the pilot to use their brains: the necessary condition for a kite to fly is that there is wind on the ground, but if the wind speed is too high, it is also difficult to fly because the horizontal force of the air is too strong, making it difficult to "lift" the kite and control it; The biggest fear of flying a kite is the unpredictable wind direction, as the kite is most likely to "fall" at this time. The ancient people believed that the higher level of flying a kite is: when flying, they are connected by a single line. Before flying, it is like a horse lying in a trough. After flying, it is like entering a racecourse, and one should be energetic. The line should be pulled tightly like a reins, like training a horse, and then watch the sky calm down, running back and forth with the drift.
Flying kites can make people feel cheerful and happy. When released, the brain is highly concentrated, which undoubtedly eliminates people's inner distractions; When the pilot gazes at the blue sky, their heart and chest will also feel open; In addition, in spring, grass grows and birds fly, making it a sight to behold. Flying kites is a beautiful dialogue between humans and nature.
