In midsummer, "it is appropriate to be quiet and temperament", and in summer, autumn is more and more obvious.

Second, daily aftercare

After the summer heat, the temperature gradually decreased and the daily temperature difference increased. At this time, in daily life, we should pay attention to increasing or decreasing clothes according to the temperature. The solar terms in summer are in the alternate period from hot to cool, and the yang in nature tends to converge, and the rise and fall of yin and yang in human body also changes accordingly. At this time, the daily routine should be adjusted accordingly. Pay attention to going to bed early and getting up early, which can avoid the cold in autumn. Getting up early is helpful to stretch the lung qi.

Third, exercise.

Exercise should not be too much, try to choose activities with less exercise to avoid sweating and hurting the yang, such as Ming? Gao Lian wrote the sitting method in Eight Notes on Respect for Life: every day (3-5 am), sit up straight, turn left and right, beat your back 5-7 times with your hands, then knock your teeth 36 times, breathe and swallow body fluid. You can also do more radio gymnastics, play Tai Ji Chuan and take a walk.

Fourth, diet aftercare.

In summer, the liver and heart are weak and the lung is full of qi, so the diet should be salty and pungent, replenish qi and tendons, and nourish the spleen and stomach. It is advisable to eat more salty foods, such as water chestnut, astragalus root and kudzu root, and less spicy foods, such as ginger, onion, garlic, leek, star anise and fennel. On the other hand, you can also eat fresh fruits and vegetables, such as tremella, lily, lotus seeds, honey, glutinous rice, sesame seeds, beans, milk, etc., to prevent autumn dryness, which is in line with the clearing nature of the lungs, and can also be combined with medicated diet for conditioning.
