For friends with cold body, it is also the time when the cold in the body is most easily pulled out. As long as we seize this period of time, it will be more effective to recuperate our physique.
"This year's dog days.
Yang Canshuang, so we should pay attention to these two points. "
It is really hot this summer.
Especially in the early stage, it happened that in 2022, there were five movements, six qi and three qi. Dominant qi and politeness are both shaoyang and fire, adding fuel to the fire. It can be said that the yang energy between heaven and earth has doubled.
Many people in deep cold around me like this summer very much.
I like perilla, and told me a while ago that I think the weather is just right without air conditioning. My body is sweating slightly, my hands and feet are warm, my calves are not cold, and even my menstrual flow is much larger ~
How can we make the best use of this opportunity? I have prepared two tips to pay attention to.
①
"External cooling"+"Internal cooling" synchronous cleaning
Cold invades the human body from the outside to the inside, from light to heavy, but generally speaking, it is mainly divided into three stages:
When cold is in the skin and muscles, it belongs to "external cold".
The main way of conditioning is "relieving exterior syndrome and dispelling cold", that is, sweating. It is to mobilize body fluids in the body and form sweat to penetrate the skin. Simply put, it is equivalent to bathing the body and washing away evil spirits from the inside out.
When the cold reaches the viscera, it is "internal cold". Shallow sweating has limited effect. At this time, it is even more necessary to warm and nourish the yang, restore the self-healing ability of the viscera, and let the body drive out the cold independently from the inside out.
In recent years, I will even advise you to pay attention to the external cold in the early stage, and then replenish the yang after cleaning up your body to expel the internal cold.
But this year, due to the abundant yang, the yang in the body is also boiling, the pores on the body surface are wide open, and the body is transparent, and the old cold hidden in the depths of the viscera emerges early.
You can seize the opportunity in advance, connect "relieving exterior syndrome" with "warming the sun" early, and pull out the cold from the inside out in one breath.
②
While expelling cold, we should also pay attention to heatstroke prevention and dehumidification.
In dog days, the summer heat is enough. Summer "summer" is different from "hot" and means "cooking". The ancients said that summer is inseparable from humidity. Summer is hot and humid, and people are easily sleepy, unable to eat, wet and hot, and the whole person is lost.
Wet and sticky will hinder the circulation of qi and blood. If you don't clean up at the same time, directly dispel cold and replenish yang, cook porridge on the fire:
Before replenishing new qi and blood, the original damp heat repeatedly transpires and condenses, and the rice grains become sticky and evolve into more complicated "phlegm", which continues to block the meridians, which not only has little effect on expelling cold, but also makes people particularly prone to get angry.
We have written a lot about the methods of eliminating dampness before. You can reply "Humidity" in the background of WeChat official account to get this year's dehumidification plan.
Finally, according to this way, I have specially prepared a set of programs for you to dispel cold and tonify yang in three volts, hoping to help you restore a stable and comfortable state ~
"The cold exclusion.
Mainly "back drying" and "moxibustion"
Our bodies are very sensitive. As long as the meridians and acupoints are properly activated, the circulation of local qi and blood can be accelerated, the pores are wide open, and the cold is discharged with sweat.
And "back drying" and "moxibustion" are the best ways to activate meridian points.
①
Sun-drying the back-targeting the meridians
The back is the part where the bladder meridian of the foot sun circulates. Although it is a yang meridian, it has more blood and less qi, and its ability to keep out the cold is not enough, so it is easy to be affected by evil.
For example, many friends who need to wait for a long time in air-conditioned rooms often feel shoulder and neck pain, backache and a lot of fat, which are all manifestations of the cold and heavy bladder meridian.
Sunbathing the back is the best way to get through the bladder meridian, which is equivalent to carpet scanning. The firepower is not fierce, but the area is large.
After a while in the sun, the whole body will start to get hot and even sweat, which is equivalent to activating the yang of the whole body, and it is gentle and can gradually drive away the cold on the body surface.

Moxibustion-Aiming at Acupoints
In Neijing, it is said that "cold and heat are real deficiency and fire is positive." Cold constitution, or treating diseases caused by dampness and cold or cold evil, is very suitable for moxibustion.
It allows the heat to scan the body accurately and deeply, mainly aiming at acupuncture points, and can regulate the cold and uncomfortable places of the body in a targeted manner.
What acupoints are there in dog days moxibustion?
If you have mild body cold, or have no time, it is recommended to moxibustion the three main points of Mingmen, Guanyuan and Yongquan.
Mingmen point: Mingmen point is called "Mingmen" and is the Yang point on the Du meridian of human body. Has the effects of warming kidney, strengthening yang, nourishing yuan and tonifying kidney.
Guanyuan point: it is one of the most powerful points in the human body, and it is the intersection of yin and yang, which can strengthen kidney yang and replenish lower jiao.
Yongquan point is the starting point of human kidney meridian. Moxibustion at Yongquan point can cause fire to descend and warm the lower body.
If you are very cold, even in such a hot summer, wrap yourself up.
It is suggested that moxibustion at different acupoints should be selected in each stage according to the three stages, namely, before, during and after, so as to drive away the cold more deeply.
Moxibustion needs attention
"Cold in that row.
You can drink "ginger jujube tea"
The cold inside is discharged, mainly the cold in the middle coke.
Especially for girls nowadays, due to diet and long-term sedentary, the middle energizer is the weakest, and it is easy to accumulate cold and become a "swimming ring", and the spleen and stomach are deficient in cold.
Ginger jujube tea is the most direct and quick way to warm medium coke.
When the Huangdi Neijing talked about the middle jiao, it was described as "the middle jiao is like a raft". Lu means that to break down food, Yin and blood need to work with Yang.
Ginger supplements zhongyang, and jujube nourishes yin and nourishes blood. Together, the two have the meaning of "Yang rising and Yin falling", which can help the transportation of medium coke.
Many friends with stomach cold or dysmenorrhea, who drink 1 month of ginger jujube tea, will feel diarrhea and feel much worse during menstruation.
The practice of ginger jujube tea
It should be noted that dried ginger is recommended for ginger jujube tea.
The gas of ginger is lighter, and it will disperse if it does not reach the middle coke position, and it is more inclined to disperse cold. Only dried ginger, in the main temperature, goes deeper, can warm to medium coke, and better clean up the "internal cold".
The formula is
Ingredients: 3 pieces of dried ginger/3 pieces of red dates/brown sugar. Friends who have a health pot can directly cook dried ginger and red dates together 10 minutes to drink directly; If not, you can also soak in a thermos for 30 minutes before drinking; Friends who are cold and sweet can add a small piece of brown sugar to their tea to tonify the yang.

"In the dog days.
How should I get rid of a cold? 」
Many friends can't remember the methods and acupoints used in different stages of dog days, so we specially drew a dog days map for you, which can be printed and posted on the wall as a thoughtful reminder.
I hope it can accompany you and better discharge the cold ~
In addition, it is also necessary to remind everyone that the method of expelling cold provided by Sanfu is mainly suitable for friends who are pure cold.
If it is cold-dampness type, it is suggested to dispel dampness and drive away cold at the same time. At the same time, avoid drinking ginger and jujube tea directly. It is purely for nourishing yang, and is not suitable for damp and silting.
