How to prevent colds in spring
1, mental conditioning
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the physiological and pathological changes of human body are closely related to mental activities, and repeated mental stimulation will promote the imbalance of qi, blood, yin and yang and induce diseases. Therefore, if you want to prevent colds in spring, you need to have a good mood. Don't always think too much and be unhappy. If you think too much all day and feel depressed, your health will get worse and worse, which gives you a chance to get sick.
2. Pay attention to the spring cover
Covering in spring is necessary for health preservation in spring, because in spring, although the temperature is much higher than that in winter, wet and cold air often appears due to frequent rain. If you don't cover it, you will catch a cold easily. Among them, Chunwu pays attention to the principle of "thin on the top and thick on the bottom, emphasizing hands and feet". This is because Chinese medicine believes that the cold is from the bottom up, and the blood circulation of the lower body is worse than that of the upper body. If you don't wear the lower body, it is easy to be attacked by the cold.
