Winter belongs to yin, so the essence of yin should be protected, and less body fluid should be discharged. Therefore, it is necessary to "dispel the cold and warm it" in winter to prevent the cold from invading. But don't warm up suddenly and violently, especially avoid thick clothes and fur, getting drunk with fire, roasting your abdomen and back, and suddenly warming up and sweating.
Heavy snow solar terms are characterized by dryness and low air humidity. In addition, clothes should increase with the decrease of temperature, keep warm and close to the skin, and don't make the skin sweat to protect the yang from infringement. At night, the temperature will be lower. When you lie down at night, you should add more clothes and quilts to keep your limbs warm and your blood flowing smoothly, which can avoid many diseases, such as colds, bronchitis, bronchial asthma and cerebral thrombosis.
2. Go to bed early and get up late in daily life.
It's sunny in winter, especially at night, so "go to bed early and get up late". Go to bed early to nourish yang, and get up late to solidify yin essence. Everything is hidden in the snow season, and health care should also conform to the laws of nature and work hard on the word "hidden". It is advisable to go to bed early and get up late in daily life, and to converge and nourish the lungs. The temperature difference between morning and evening is large, so the elderly should be careful about their lives and exercise properly to enhance their adaptability to climate change.
3. Correct parenting.
The so-called golden mean is to be just right. Not too much, not too late. If you are too cautious, it will lead to the loss of aftercare and you will be at a loss. Doing a little work is afraid of wasting gas and hurting the spirit. If you have a little difference between cold and heat, you will stay indoors. When eating, I am afraid of being fat, sweet and tired, so I go on a diet and eat less. Too much restraint in this state is not only harmful to the body, but also impossible to "spend the rest of your life safely."
4. Don't be biased.
Comprehensive aftercare should be moderate. Some people regard "tonic" as nutrition, so diet emphasizes nutrition and food must be supplemented; Daily life emphasizes comfort and rest; In addition, it is supplemented by nourishing drugs. Although food supplement, medicine supplement and rest all belong to the category of health preservation, excessive use will affect health.

Always keep your feet clean and dry, wash your socks frequently, wash your feet with warm water every day, and massage to stimulate the acupoints on your feet. Walk for more than half an hour every day to exercise your feet. In addition, it is also important to choose a pair of comfortable, warm, light and hygroscopic shoes.
Step 6 drink plenty of water
Although sweating and urination decrease in winter, cells in the brain and body organs still need water to nourish them to ensure normal metabolism. In winter, the daily hydration should not be less than 2000-3000ml.
7. Maintain a good mental state
Winter is easy to make people feel depressed. The best way to change depression is to take part in activities, such as jogging, dancing, skating and playing ball games, which are all good medicines to eliminate winter boredom and maintain spirit.
8, ventilation and brain.
In winter, indoor air pollution is dozens of times more serious than outdoor air pollution. Always open doors and windows for ventilation to purify the air and refresh your brain.
9. Drink porridge to recuperate
Avoid sticking cold food in winter. Experts advocate drinking hot porridge in the morning and dieting and nourishing the stomach at dinner. Especially mutton porridge, glutinous rice, jujube and lily porridge, eight-treasure porridge, millet milk and rock sugar porridge are the most suitable.
