After the winter solstice, the days begin to get longer and the nights gradually get shorter. At this time, daily life should conform to the changes of natural laws and adopt good yang. You should go to bed early and get up late, and keep warm against the cold. Clothes and trousers should be warm, soft and loose, not too tight to facilitate blood flow. In winter, when the air is dry, the amount of perspiration of the human body is reduced, and there will be no large amount of scales mixed into the stratum corneum and skin sweat. If you take a bath too often, it will damage the stratum corneum, easily destroy the normal skin structure, and lose the protective effect on the skin. The water in skin cells will evaporate more easily and the skin will be dry. Therefore, bathing in cold season should not be too frequent, the water temperature should be controlled well, and the bathing time should not be too long to avoid bathing on an empty stomach or full stomach.
During the winter solstice, the climate is cold and dry, and with the effect of heating and air conditioning, the room is relatively dry, which is easy to cause respiratory diseases and "heating diseases". Therefore, attention should be paid to maintaining a certain indoor humidity in daily life. Usually, after 10 in the morning and 3 pm, open the window properly to exchange indoor air with the outside world, or put a humidifier indoors to increase indoor humidity. However, the humidifier should be cleaned regularly and changed every day to prevent microorganisms in the water from spreading into the air and causing respiratory diseases.
