Summer is the most vigorous period of human yang. "If Yang is in the sky, if Yang is lost, it will be lost." Comparing the yang of human body to the sun of celestial body highlights that yang is the foundation of human life activities and the source of all things. The basic substances of human body (qi, blood, body fluid and essence) must rely on the warmth and gasification of Yang Qi to transform Shui Gu into subtle substances. This shows the importance of this Yang. The weather is hottest in summer, and the human body's yang is also the strongest at this time. At this time, raising yang often has a multiplier effect. So, how to raise yang in summer?

The human body is peaceful in yin and yang, with abundant yang heat in summer and relatively insufficient yang in the body; Therefore, people who have yang deficiency, are often afraid of cold, and are prone to catching a cold should eat more products that tonify yang in summer. At this time, the spleen and stomach function declined. If you are greedy for cold, it will damage the spleen and stomach, and it is easy to vomit and diarrhea. Moreover, it is not suitable for eating greasy and sweet food, because the digestion and decomposition function of the spleen and stomach is weakened, and eating too much will help damp heat. Therefore, the summer diet should be light, less greasy, mainly warm, and eat more vegetables, lean meat and seasonal fruits.

Motion adjustment

Physical exercise can achieve the functions of harmonizing viscera, dredging qi and blood, and dredging meridians. In summer, the yang in the human body grows with the yang in nature. At this time, exercise should be used to help the yang in the body grow. However, the hot weather in summer consumes a lot of people, and long-term exercise in the sun can lead to heatstroke. At this time, we should choose appropriate sports, such as Tai Ji Chuan, Taijiquan, jogging, walking, swimming and so on.

Life adjustment

In summer, the days are long and the nights are short. People get up early, but go to bed relatively late at night, which is easy to cause insufficient sleep. Therefore, it is more necessary to take a lunch break to eliminate fatigue, keep energetic and let the brain and all systems of the whole body have a rest. However, a lunch break is not beneficial to everyone. For example, patients with low blood pressure and blood circulation disorder, especially those who often feel dizzy due to cerebrovascular sclerosis and stenosis, are not suitable for taking a nap; Because after lunch, the digestive system gathers more blood and the brain is relatively ischemic and hypoxic, such patients are more serious and can't achieve the purpose of rest. Therefore, it is said in Neijing that "life is unrestrained, and half a hundred will decline", which shows the importance of life for health preservation.
