someone stood upside down in the vegetable field, and someone twisted his body on the square.
Some people betray others with high difficulty, and some fairy guides the way.
What do you think of when you see such a picture? First of all, I will be confused, but I will also admire their hard performance.
Secondly, you will guess whether this is the beauty show of online celebrities or post-modern performance art.
No, this is the real image of Yoga village.
Yugouliang village is an ordinary village in Zhangbei County, Zhangjiakou City, Hebei Province.
The average age of the permanent population is too old.
As the picture shows, the protagonists are all old people with silver hair and wrinkles.
When pictures and texts come, some people sigh: the gods at dusk.
Admiration is good, but the protagonists’ achievement of today’s state is not achieved overnight.

Yugouliang village is located in Bashang area on the southern edge of Inner Mongolia Plateau.
The climate is cold and dry, the natural conditions are extremely poor, the groundwater is seriously scarce, and the agricultural production conditions are poor.
But once it rains, it seems as if the ocean world appears, and the roads are muddy, which is very inconvenient for villagers to produce and live.
In the case of unsatisfactory agricultural production, many families can only eat enough throughout the year.
Young and middle-aged people choose to leave their hometown to work, and the village has become a hollow village: the resident village has a population of about 100 people, and 80% of them are elderly people over 65 years old.
These old people have only a primary school diploma, and they haven’t even left the village.
They cannot try emerging industries because it is too difficult to accept them; They can’t try physical labor, because their bodies can’t afford to toss.
The role of the latter is more obvious.
When arthritis, rheumatism and other symptoms afflict them repeatedly, the money they earn will become medical expenses.
They can’t live and produce continuously and efficiently, and then they can’t make a lot of money.
This is the typical dilemma of getting rid of poverty and becoming rich.
The rural development problem of poverty caused by illness is prominently reflected in yugouliang village, so that yugouliang has been a national poverty village for many years.
If there is no accident, it will continue to be hollow, filled with feelings of loss, and accept a hopeless future.
Faced with this situation, many village cadres were at a loss before.
03.
In 2016, luwenzhen, a teacher of Shijiazhuang Vocational and Technical College of Posts and telecommunications, and two colleagues came here to help the poor in the village.
He served as the first Secretary of yugouliang village.
The working group in the village soon found out the problem – poverty caused by illness, which is not difficult, but the way to solve it.
In order to find poverty alleviation ideas from the villagers, Lu Wenzhen went to the uncle and aunt’s home to investigate.
He found a surprising phenomenon – the older the villagers are, the more they will sit cross legged on the Kang.
And this trick is called yoga in the outside world.
Lu Wenzhen and the working group put forward the measures of “Fitness Yoga poverty alleviation” and “literature and art poverty alleviation”.
From the perspective of thinking, it can be said that through sports to strengthen the health of villagers, villagers start production, so as to get rid of poverty and become rich.
This idea is also unique in the country.
Most villages are engaged in cultural tourism poverty alleviation, e-commerce poverty alleviation, agricultural poverty alleviation, consumption poverty alleviation and crowdfunding poverty alleviation.
These models are traceable and convenient for reference.
“Fitness Yoga poverty alleviation” is too rare, so the idea is facing the problem of landing.

For example, as a new secretary, Lu Wenzhen has little prestige.
People thought that he came for gilding, so they symbolically applauded him.
When he asked everyone to practice at the entrance of the village, few people were willing to go, nor did they want to make time for busy farming.
The closest village committee team also doubted him.
Jin Xiuying, director of the women’s Federation, forced several villagers to join him in order to meet the face of “three fires of new officials in office”.
Just wait until the enthusiasm of the new secretary subsides.
For example, some postures of yoga are not understood.
“This awkward gesture is too unorthodox.” “It doesn’t rain, it’s these people.” “Does secretary Lu want them to join the cult?” Lu Wenzhen’s heart cooled when the wind review spread.
For example, how can yugouliang village in the North do yoga exercises in winter without delaying making money.
These problems have baffled Lu Wenzhen.
He has to solve them one by one.
First of all, Lu Wenzhen bought gloves and 100 yoga mats at his own expense.
As soon as he heard that he could get things, everyone came to participate.
Of course, everyone still didn’t study hard, at least they saw the signs that the new secretary wanted to do a good job.
Next, he took Jin Xiuying, director of the women’s Federation, as a demonstration.
Jin Xiuying has the old problem of waist plate.
Her legs are numb when she walks too much, so she can only walk for a while, stop for a while, and then walk for a while.
Lu Wenzhen bought the textbook “fitness yoga posture standard” for self-study and self-sale, and taught it to the first group of members, including Jin Xiuying, with a total of 8 people.
Although Lu Wenzhen is not professional, the process of self-study and self-sale also made him understand how to learn from villagers’ life and “make yoga a jade dog beam”.
In a word – Grounding gas.
In order to consider the villagers to get started anytime and anywhere, he taught the villagers Yoga under the scenes of cooking on fire, weeding on the ground, taking water from the well, grinding tofu manually, sawing wood, drying grain, etc.
In order to facilitate the villagers’ understanding, he renamed “samurai sitting” as “grandma sitting”, “plough type” as “upside down golden hook”, and “tree type” as “Golden Rooster independence”.
Next, we have to “strict teachers produce excellent students”.
Every day at 6:30 a.m.
and 5 p.m., he called the villagers to practice yoga for a total of four hours a day.
At first, the villagers were sore in the back and legs, but Lu Wenzhen did not compromise, forcing everyone to endure the pain for more than three months.
After three or four months, the first batch of students felt comfortable physically and mentally, and felt the effect of fitness.
Qiao zhanlian, an 80 year old orphan, can also do yoga “all lotus sitting” on the Kang at home.
65 year old Bai Yuxiang did yoga “tiger style” on her Kang after doing housework.
Xu Fu, 74, practiced yoga “tree pose” while herding in Caopu mountain depression..
