Combing your hair before going to bed can regulate the whole body's meridians. According to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, the head is connected with the meridians of the whole body, and properly stimulating the acupuncture points on the head is helpful to improve the brain function, regulate the meridians of the whole body, and achieve the purpose of preventing diseases and preserving health. Stimulating acupuncture points on the head through a comb plays an auxiliary role in treating diseases. You can use a comb to comb your hair, or you can directly use your fingers instead of a comb. Comb the hair with both hands and fingers from front to back, from the forehead hairline to the back of the neck hairline, and rub the scalp while combing, slowly and gently combing for about 10 minutes at a time.

Stretching is the simplest and most practical health training. Stretching can relieve fatigue, replenish blood and nourish the heart. Proper stretching of the body, such as stretching, is helpful to dredge the meridians, promote the circulation of qi and blood, and adjust the balance of yin and yang of viscera. This is a good self-care method. When stretching, the body should be stretched as far as possible, the limbs should be straight, and the muscles of the whole body should exert their strength. Inhale as much as possible when stretching, and exhale as much as possible when relaxing, so that the effect of exercise will be better.

The foot is the farthest part of the human body from the heart, which has a great influence on blood return. Soaking feet with hot water before going to bed can not only relieve fatigue, but also promote sleep. Soaking feet with hot water can improve local blood circulation, dispel cold and promote metabolism. The best water temperature for soaking feet is below 50℃, and the best time is 15-20 minutes. If the time is too long and the local blood circulation of both feet is too long and too fast, the blood in the body will flow more to the lower limbs, causing cardiovascular overload.

There is another particularly simple way, raise your hand. Keep your arms straight, lift them horizontally to both sides, and hold your palms in any direction, whether standing or sitting. I feel uncomfortable when I raise my hand. However, the strangeness of this action lies in its pain and numbness. Pain, numbness and swelling indicate that qi and blood in the body are blocked. In the process of mobilizing qi and blood, any block will inevitably cause pain and numbness. As long as you endure the pain and numbness, it will be relieved, indicating that the blockage has been lifted.
