However, the sun is also very particular. If there is no light on a cloudy day, the sun is not strong enough, and the sun is cloudy and cannot be basked in. To choose sunny days, it is best to 1 1 in the morning and 1 in the evening. The air is good at this time, which makes people feel warm and soft. 20 minutes to 30 minutes is appropriate. At the same time, the heart meridian is the most prosperous at noon, and the yang is the most prosperous at noon. In the afternoon, the yin is getting stronger. When yin and yang are exchanged, it is advisable to take a break. It is more effective to maintain the heart meridian at this time. Therefore, if you can take a nap at noon, it will not only be of great benefit to nourishing your heart, but also make your afternoon work full of vitality.
Tip 2: Always rub three acupoints.
The human body has its own "Yang Qi nest". Rubbing the following three acupoints every day in winter is not only effective in treating diseases, but also plays an important role in supplementing Yang Qi and strengthening the body.
Yongquan point: Yongquan point is located at the bottom of the foot, in the depression of the front of the foot when the foot is curled up, and at the intersection of the front 1/3 and the back 2/3 of the line connecting the toe ends of the second and third toes of the sole with the heel.
Before going to bed every night, you can relax, sit on the bed, then rub the soles of your feet back and forth with your palms, preferably until the soles of your feet are hot, then press Yongquan point with your thumb, and stop changing the other foot when you feel sore, which will help to relieve the cold hands and feet.
Guanyuan point: Guanyuan point is located in the ren meridian of the "sea of yin pulse" of the human body, on the front median line, three inches below the navel. The ancients described Guanyuan point as a place where men store sperm and women store blood, which shows the importance of Guanyuan point.
You can rub your left or right palm counterclockwise and clockwise for 3 ~ 5 minutes every day with Guan Yuan as the center. Then, the index finger of both hands and the abdomen are overlapped together, and the acupoints are pressed for 20 times, so that it is appropriate to have a feeling of local soreness. Regular massage can play a role in invigorating vitality, strengthening body and essence, and dispelling cold and restoring yang.
Sanyinjiao point: This point is the intersection of the spleen meridian of Foot Taiyin, the kidney meridian of Foot Shaoyin and the liver meridian of Foot Jueyin, and is located on the inner side of the calf. Massage Sanyinjiao with fingertips frequently can not only strengthen the spleen and promote blood circulation, regulate the liver and kidney, but also soothe the nerves.
Tip 3: Eat less cold.
It is pointed out in "Eight Stories of Respect for the Holy Spirit and Winter Photograph News" that "the sun enters in winter and the yin is outside, and the elderly often suffer from heat and cold." After beginning of winter, the weather gradually turned cold, and cold pathogens turned into yin pathogens, which easily hurt human yang, which is rooted in the kidney, so cold pathogens most easily hurt kidney yang. Therefore, at this time, we should pay attention to nourishing and warming the kidney, and should eat more foods that warm and tonify the kidney to improve the cold-proof ability of the human body.
People with kidney yin deficiency are prone to dry mouth, yellow urine, dry stool and poor mental state. They need to nourish yin and tonify the kidney, and they can eat more food such as medlar and tremella. People with kidney-yang deficiency often show pale face, chills, cold hands and feet, listlessness, insomnia, forgetfulness, soreness of waist and knees, frequent urination at night and so on. It is advisable to tonify yang and kidney, and eat more tonics such as mutton, beef, longan and red dates.
Tip 4: Stay healthy.
In winter, you should recharge your batteries, avoid high-intensity exercise and preserve the yang, but you can't help but move. The best choice is aerobic exercise. It is suggested to practice mild health exercises such as Baduanjin and Tai Ji Chuan, which have the effects of nourishing yin and strengthening yang, replenishing yuan and benefiting qi.
At the same time, with the decrease of temperature, the functions of various organs of the body, including muscles and joints, are at a low level of metabolism, and muscles and ligaments are relatively stiff, so warm-up activities should be carried out for a certain period of time before exercise.
Tip 5: Reject beautiful "frozen" people.
In winter, some beauty lovers may ignore the problem of keeping warm, but the neck, back, abdomen and feet should be kept warm. Wearing a turtleneck and scarf can prevent the head and neck from catching cold.
For women, abdominal warmth is one of the effective ways to avoid dysmenorrhea. Massage and protect the kidney with some actions, such as rubbing the waist with both hands, especially the lower back on both sides of the spine, which can warm the kidney and strengthen yang and dredge qi and blood; First of all, you should avoid showing your ankles. There are many acupoints on the feet. Once attacked by cold evil, you will feel unwell. If possible, you can often do foot bath and massage.
