Four valuable experiences of spring health preservation
Yang Qi 1
What is Yang? That is what people usually call "firepower", that is, the metabolic capacity of the human body.
If the firepower is insufficient, there will be symptoms such as chills and cold limbs. There are many ways to maintain human yang in spring. The important thing is to "cover", that is, as the saying goes, "spring covers and autumn freezes", and clothes should not be reduced. People who are weak should pay attention to keeping their backs warm. In order to maintain yang, you can also eat more leeks.
Although leeks are evergreen all year round and are eaten all year round, it is best to eat more in spring.
Step 2 tonify the liver
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the liver corresponds to the "wood" in the five elements, and spring is the season of lush vegetation, so spring governs the liver.
There are many ways to maintain the liver, such as not being too tired in spring, so as not to increase the burden on the liver.
Patients with liver disease and hypertension, especially mental patients, should take medicine on time in spring to maintain mental health and avoid mental stimulation, so as not to aggravate their illness.
Step 3 prevent asthma
Spring is the flower season, which can lead to pollen allergy, itchy eyes, stuffy nose, sneezing, runny nose, tears and other symptoms. In severe cases, it can induce allergic diseases such as bronchial asthma, allergic dermatitis, laryngeal edema, urticaria and neurovascular edema.
Therefore, people who are allergic to pollen should pay attention to the places where flowers and trees are flourishing as little as possible. If they go, they must remember to bring medicine.
4, diligent exercise
In spring, people often suffer from "spring sleepiness", which is manifested as listlessness, drowsiness and lethargy. It can be eliminated by exercise, and it is absolutely forbidden to sleep, because Chinese medicine believes that "long lying down hurts the gas." Long-term sleep will cause slow metabolism, poor blood circulation, stiff bones and muscles, fat accumulation, decreased ability to absorb and carry oxygen, and toxins can not be excreted in time, leading to physical weakness and diseases.
Huangdi Neijing also pointed out: "Lie down at night and get up early, stride forward and slow down your mission." It means that people should go to bed late and get up early in spring, let their hair hang freely, stretch their bodies and walk in the courtyard, which can make wisdom and inspiration endless.
Keeping warm, not being tired, always paying attention to one's emotions, exercising diligently and avoiding allergens are all valuable experiences of the ancients in keeping fit in spring, which are worthy of serious implementation by modern people.
