In spring, the sun is shining and the weather is beautiful. To adjust your spirit, you should be able to vent your emotions freely, be open-minded, be optimistic, and avoid depression and anger to cultivate your nature. On holidays, you can go outing, travel by mountain and water, and cultivate your temperament. This will regulate your qi and blood and make your spirit vigorous.2. To keep warm in spring, you should go to bed late and get up early, do more activities outdoors, stretch your body, and have more energy for the day. In spring, special attention should be paid to keeping warm, nourishing yang and restraining yin. As the weather in early spring changes from cold to warm three times a day, you should not reduce the amount of clothes suddenly. Taking off winter clothes too early can easily damage the lungs due to cold and cause respiratory diseases. According to the principle of "cover in spring and keep warm in autumn", you must add or remove clothes as the temperature changes to adapt to the changeable climate in spring. 3. Adjust your diet . In spring, the metabolism is vigorous, so the diet should be sweet and warm, rich in nutrients, and the principle of diet should be to strengthen the spleen and support yang. Avoid food that is too sour and astringent, and eat light and delicious food. Avoid greasy and cold food. In particular, avoid taking too much spicy and hot food, such as ginseng, antlers, aconite, strong liquor, etc., so as not to help heat and generate fire. In spring, it is advisable to eat more foods rich in protein, minerals and vitamins (especially B vitamins); especially various yellow-green vegetables, such as lean meat, soy products, eggs, carrots, cauliflower, cabbage, bell peppers, celery, spinach, leeks, etc. In addition, you should also be careful not to eat cold drinks and other foods too early, so as not to damage the stomach and damage the yang. 4. Exercise and practice: A year's plan begins in spring, which is the best season to invest in physical fitness. The air in spring is fresh, and this environment is most conducive to expelling the old and taking in the new, and nourishing the internal organs. Exercising more in spring will enhance the rabbit's immunity and disease resistance, and reduce the risk of various diseases such as influenza throughout the year. It also makes people more agile and less fatigued. People can choose outdoor activities according to their age and physical condition, such as Tai Chi, jogging, kite flying, spring outings, etc. 5. Prevent spring sleepiness. Although the weather is sunny and warm in spring, many people still feel sleepy. Fatigue, dizziness, and drowsiness, and not waking up in the morning, this phenomenon is what we call "spring sleepiness". Feeling sleepy in spring is not because you need more sleep, but because of seasonal differences in circulation in the body. The climate becomes warmer in spring, the blood vessels in the skin dilate, the circulatory system functions better, the blood supply to the skin extremities increases, sweat secretion increases, the burden on various organs increases, and the blood supply to the brain is relatively reduced. The brain feels insufficient in oxygen and therefore feels sleepy and weak. So how to reduce and prevent spring sleepiness? First, ensure sleep, go to bed early and get up early, and overcome negative and lazy thoughts and emotions; second, actively participate in exercise and outdoor activities to improve blood circulation; third, increase nutrition appropriately. Studies have shown that lack of B vitamins and overeating are the main causes of spring sleepiness, so it is advisable to eat more foods rich in B vitamins and not to eat too much. Fourthly, keep the indoor air circulating and smoke less. If it is not too cold, take off some clothes appropriately or wash your face with cold water, which will eliminate the sleepiness as soon as possible. 6. Health care and disease prevention: Spring is warm and windy, which is most suitable for bacteria. The reproduction and spread of viruses and other microorganisms can easily lead to diseases such as influenza, pneumonia, bronchitis, meningitis, scarlet fever, mumps, and viral myocarditis. Therefore, you must pay attention to hygiene, wash and dry clothes and quilts frequently, eliminate pests, open windows for ventilation, improve your defense capabilities, go to public places less often during epidemics, and avoid infection. Spring is also a transitional season with alternating climates. If you do not pay attention to health care, or eat too much spicy and hot food that helps fire, and then be triggered by seasonal evils, some old diseases will easily relapse, such as migraine, chronic pharyngitis, allergic asthma, hypertension, myocardial infarction, mental illness, etc. Special attention should be paid to prevention in all aspects of food, clothing, housing and transportation. |
