First, adjust and maintain the spirit of the sun in daily life, warm washing and sun protection, cold and dampness.

The solstice in summer is the most sunny season. On this day, the day is the longest and the night is the shortest. So in summer, people pay attention to going to bed late and getting up early, and taking a lunch break to make up for the lack of sleep at night. Health care should conform to the characteristics of nature and pay attention to protecting yang.

Take a hot bath.

It can not only wash away sweat and dirt, but also make the skin clean and cool, relieve summer heat and prevent diseases, and also play a role in exercising. At the same time, it can also reduce the excitability of nervous system, accelerate blood circulation, improve the nutrition of skin and tissue, reduce muscle tension, eliminate fatigue and improve sleep to some extent.

cold-dampness

It is hot in summer, and it is vulnerable to wind, cold and dampness. When sleeping, it is not suitable to supply air to the air conditioner or fan. In an air-conditioned room, the temperature difference between indoor and outdoor should not be too large, and it is not suitable for sleeping at night.

Exposure prevention

During the summer solstice, you should avoid being exposed to strong sunlight. Take sun protection measures when going out, such as taking an umbrella, wearing a sun hat and applying sunscreen. You can also carry cool oil, Huoxiang Zhengqi water, etc.

Second, the diet should be cold, cool and greasy, and it is appropriate to eat sour and drink plenty of water.

Summer solstice is the most vigorous season of human metabolism in a year. At this time, people's digestive function is relatively weak. Therefore, the diet should be light and delicious, and avoid greasy and indigestible food. Summer nights are short, so don't eat cold and sticky things at night to avoid bloating, vomiting and diarrhea.

The food is sour and bitter.

Sweating in summer, excessive salt loss in the body in summer, at this time, we should eat more acid to consolidate the exterior, and suffer more to clear the heart. Because bitter food has the function of eliminating dampness, cooling and relieving summer heat. Such as bitter gourd, coriander and so on. However, bitter food is cold, and people with weak constitution should not eat it.

Drink plenty of water

When the temperature is high in summer solstice, a lot of water in the human body is easily lost. If water is not replenished in time, the blood volume of human body will be reduced, resulting in insufficient blood supply and easy to induce cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. In addition, when the human body sweats more, the blood vessels on the body surface dilate and blood pressure drops, which is prone to dizziness, headache and other symptoms, so it is necessary to replenish more water.

Third, exercise and recuperation should be moderate, and sweating should be controlled in the morning and evening.

Summer exercise is best done in the early morning or in the cool night. Walking, jogging and Tai Ji Chuan are all suitable. Don't do excessive and strenuous activities. If you exercise too much, you will sweat profusely, which will not only hurt Yin Qi, but also damage Yang Qi.
