Summer and March is a Chinese medicine term, which refers to April, May, June and March of the lunar calendar. Also known as Xia Meng, midsummer and the last month of summer. From Long Summer to beginning of autumn, there are six solar terms: Long Summer, Xiaoman, Mangzhong, Summer Solstice, Small Summer and Great Summer. Huangdi Neijing said: "The fiery heat is summer, which should be in the heart, and the heart should control the blood and store the spirit", so the focus of summer health care is to nourish the heart and keep the yang.
After the long summer, although summer is coming, the weather is getting hotter and hotter, and the temperature is rising obviously, but at this time, the temperature difference between day and night is large, so it is necessary to add clothes properly in the morning and evening. In addition, although the weather is hot at this time, we should pay attention to keeping the chest, back and abdomen warm to prevent catching cold. For people with joint diseases, we should avoid being greedy in summer, and pay special attention to moderation when using air conditioners and fans. Excessive greed may induce joint pain. For people who often go in and out of the environment with large temperature difference, because frequent temperature changes may lead to colds, it is best to prepare a long-sleeved dress or shawl, and increase or decrease clothes at any time with the change of external temperature.
Pay attention to keep warm to prevent colds. Although the solar term temperature in Grain Rain is mainly sunny and warm, it is still hot and cold in the morning and evening. Friends who leave early and return late should put on more clothes, especially when it is rainy or hot and cold. They should take extra care of themselves to avoid catching a cold. Suggestion: don't be greedy for cold in the morning, put on more clothes when it is cold, keep warm when sleeping at night, don't be greedy for cold, keep the indoor air fresh, and strengthen your health care according to the change of temperature. At the same time, it is reminded that "spring covering" is not recommended when the temperature exceeds 15℃. If you cover too much in spring, you will sweat all over and catch a cold.
To maintain a good mood and living habits, we must maintain a peaceful mind. As the old saying goes, "peace of mind is naturally cool", and you should avoid excessive emotions when you are in trouble. Go to bed early and get up early, smoke less and drink less. There are some words about summer health in Huangdi Neijing. It is said that in Xia San month, people should "lie down at night and get up early" and "make their hearts not angry", which means that in the three months of summer, people should go to bed early and get up early, don't get angry and keep a happy mood. Usually, they are strong, but under great pressure, or eat a lot of spicy food. These people usually get angry easily, often have swollen gums and sores on their mouths, or often have oral ulcers and impatience. You can take andrographis paniculata powder or gardenia powder in moderation, which can clear away heart fire, liver fire and stomach fire, thus preventing the occurrence of diseases.

Exercise should be done in the morning and evening. The best place is in rivers, streams, ponds and tree-lined places, and indoor exercise is also a very good method.
