Entering the winter solstice season, the weather will change in two aspects. First, the days begin to get longer and the nights begin to get shorter. The solstice in winter is the longest night in a year. From then on, the days will gradually get longer and the day will increase by a few minutes. The second is to enter the cold weather. The winter solstice begins, which is the coldest time in winter. The temperature in the north can reach MINUS 30 degrees, and the outdoor water drops into ice. As the saying goes, "3949, the stick can't be broken."
From winter to the future, due to the extreme cold outside, health care should be based on quietness, and outdoor activities should be minimized to avoid frostbite or sweating after exercise. Even if you insist on outdoor sports, you should wait for the sun to come out and exercise in the sun. At the same time, pay attention to wear more clothes, especially the soles of your feet, and be sure to keep warm to avoid the harm of yin and cold.
After the winter solstice, you should pay attention to supplementing calories in your diet. First, drink more hot water instead of cold water. Second, eat some high-calorie foods, such as mutton, yam, lotus seeds, jujube and so on. You can also drink more hot soup to increase the body's heat to resist the cold.
After the winter solstice, it is necessary to appropriately increase sleep time, pay attention to raising "yang", advocate going to bed early and getting up late, so that the spirit and body can get full rest and prevent artificial consumption of yang in the case of heavy yin.
Our people have summed it up through practice, and each solar term has formed a unique culture. In order to be healthy, we should make some appropriate adjustments to our daily life after entering winter.
