How to Keep Healthy When the Millennium comes, the weather is getting colder, but many people seem to have not recovered from summer, so it is very important to keep warm during the Millennium solar term. In addition, after the Millennium, the temperature difference between day and night is large and the temperature is changeable, so we should also pay attention to preventing diseases.
1, soak feet in warm water to nourish kidney qi
After the beginning of the Millennium, the weather gradually turned cold. At this time, many people will have cold hands and feet, or cold limbs, fatigue and other symptoms, which are the manifestations of kidney qi deficiency. Therefore, we should pay attention to tonifying kidney and benefiting qi in the Millennium. At this time, soaking feet for 15 to 30 minutes at night is a very good way to keep fit.
2, the combination of static and dynamic recuperation mentality
After the Millennium is a good season for physical exercise in a year. At this time, the choice of exercise should vary from person to person, do what you can and persevere. Old people can take a walk, jog, play Tai Ji Chuan and enjoy themselves. Young and middle-aged people can run, play ball, dance and climb mountains. While doing the above exercises, you can also cooperate with some "static exercises", such as exhaling and closing your eyes, to achieve dynamic and static harmony. In addition, it is easy to feel depressed or even depressed in autumn, so we should pay attention to mental health and maintain a happy mood. Laughter can make the lungs inhale enough clear air, exhale turbid air, accelerate blood circulation and harmonize the qi and blood of the heart and lungs. Laughing often is also a kind of fitness exercise, which can stretch chest muscles and increase vital capacity.
3, the diet is moist, drink porridge to prevent dryness.
Autumn corresponds to the lungs, and attention should be paid to raising the lungs in the Millennium. However, the lung prefers moistening to dryness, so it cannot be blindly supplemented in the Millennium. It is suggested that the diet should be light and easy to digest, rich in vitamins, and eat more pears, tremella, honey, lilies, medlar, radishes and bean products. Eat more orange vegetables such as pumpkins and carrots. In addition, you need to eat some green leafy vegetables to supplement vitamin C, such as kale, spinach and cauliflower. And try to eat less hairtail, crab, shrimp, leek, cold food, pickles and foods that are too sweet, too fat and too greasy. At the same time, in the Millennium, drinking bowls of porridge in the morning can prevent autumn dryness, such as tremella porridge, lotus seed porridge, sesame porridge, jujube porridge, sweet potato porridge porridge and corn porridge.
4. Go to bed early and get up early in autumn and freeze moderately.
Now we will find that the yang is gradually converging and the yin is beginning to prevail, so your daily life should also adapt to this change. Try to go to bed early and get up early, and do appropriate activities after getting up, which can help the lung qi to spread. In addition, the air is fresh in the autumn morning, and getting up early is conducive to breathing fresh air in the lungs and maintaining lung vitality.
