     Self-care

    Sanford J.Brown(著)

    If we physicians are to maintain our mental and physical wellness -- and practice what we preach to our patients -- I believe strongly that we need to develop healthy passions outside of medicine and indulge ourselves deeply. Case in point: Besides dirt-bike riding, my greatest pleasure comes from getting on my mountain bike and searching out new single track. My old mountain bike wasn’t giving me the performance I needed, and it was heavy to boot,so I sought out a light-weight, full-suspension bike -- and found it! The minute I rode it, I knew it was right. The geometry felt good,it handled superbly and it weighed only 24 pounds. But it cost$2,250 without tax, plus the cost of the new shoes I would need to ride with clipless pedals. I had never paid more than $500 for a bicycle before. Now, I was in a quandary.

    It’s not that I didn’t think I deserved it or couldn’t afford it or felt I wouldn’t use it, but that was sure a lot of money for a bicycle. Still, I wanted it. I went out at least twice a week for five- to 10-mile outings and had recently begun riding with a group that’s even more obsessed with their equipment than I am. Finally, my wife made the decision for me: Buy it. So, I did, and vive la différence. The "Superlite" is the Rolls Royce of bicycles. Twentyseven gears make going up any hill a snap. Having my feet attached to the pedals translates into pure power, with no wasted motion. Front and rear suspension make it plush, and its lightness does matter. In fact, riding it is so effortless, I sometimes wonder how I am ever going to get any exercise! Oh well, I suppose I can always take up jogging.

    自我调节

    医生只有保持自己的身心健康才能做好病人的健康教育——我坚信我们需要激发医学以外的健康激情并沉迷于其中。例如:除了骑摩托车,我最大的快乐是骑上山地车,探寻一条新的山间小径。可这辆山地车的性能已不能满足我的要求了,另外它也重了点儿。我想换台轻便、全悬吊式自行车。我找到了!骑上试试,感觉不错,结构良好,把手也很好,只有24磅,不包括上税, 加上我要买的与脚踏板所匹配的新鞋总价为$2,250,可以往我买的自行车还没有超过500的,我有点犹豫不决。

    以前我没有想过要得到它,或者买不起,或感觉用不着。不过就自行车而言,的确贵了点, 可我又想拥有它。每周我至少有两次要跑到5~10英里外郊游,最近又加入了一个骑车郊游小组,小组成员对他们的装备比我要沉迷的多。最后还是我的妻子帮我做了决定,将它买了下来。27变速车登任何一座小山真是小菜一碟。我的双脚放在脚踏板上无需做多余的动作就转化为了动力。而它前后的悬吊式风格使其变得更加豪华, 更为重要的是它非常轻盈,骑着它毫不费力,有时我又想,我怎么锻炼身体啊,对了,我可以坚持慢跑。, 百拇医药
