2. Avoid adding clothes too early. "Spring covers and autumn freezes" means that the body temperature should not be high in autumn, which is conducive to the convergence of yang. Because when heat goes out, there will be cold exchange. However, when you go out at night, you should add clothes to protect the yang. At the same time, it is cold in the morning and evening, so we should pay attention to increasing clothes.
Sun protection in early autumn is also very important. Some MM think that when autumn comes, the sun will become gentle, and sunscreen is no longer a necessity. In fact, this idea is not correct. Although the temperature drops and makes people feel cool, in fact, ultraviolet rays are as strong as summer. In addition, people often travel in autumn, and sun protection is still a major event in skin care. Not only should we continue to use sunscreen, but also the sun protection factor should be the same as in summer. Generally, ordinary creams containing sunscreen value can't meet the demand.
4. Drink more and talk less to prevent autumn dryness. Chinese medicine believes that autumn corresponds to the lungs of the human body, and autumn dryness hurts people and lungs. Drink more water at this time, don't wait until you are thirsty. There is a famous saying in Chinese medicine that "cold drinks will hurt the lungs". The weather is getting colder in autumn, so cold drinks should be avoided. Dry autumn makes people's skin evaporate more than 600 ml of water every day, so it is necessary to replenish water in autumn. Usually, you should drink 500 ml more water every day in autumn than in other seasons to maintain the normal humidity of the lungs and respiratory tract, but pay attention to a small amount many times. In addition, talking constantly every day will also hurt the qi, especially the lung qi and the heart qi, so we should pay attention to "talking less"
5, home and clothing are brightly colored and visually stimulating, which is conducive to eliminating the lack of autumn. If you are engaged in indoor work for a long time, you can add some colorful and energetic ornaments and flowers in the workshop and desk. Women can wear more brightly colored clothes, send signals of excitement and joy to our bodies through their eyes, and promote the recovery of internal organs.
6. Stretching can also alleviate the lack of autumn. Even when you are not tired, you will feel comfortable by consciously stretching a few times. Stretching can make the chest organs of the human body squeeze the heart and lungs, which is beneficial to the full movement of the heart and makes more oxygen supply to various tissues and organs.
7, eat more white food, the climate turns cold in autumn, and the air is slightly dry. Traditional health care believes that white food enters the lungs, indicating that white food can promote lung health and has a good health care effect.
8. Eat more foods that clear away heat and soothe the nerves. From the health point of view, it is suitable to eat foods that clear away heat and soothe the nerves, such as tremella, lily, lotus seeds, honey, yellow croaker, scallop, kelp, jellyfish, celery, spinach, glutinous rice, sesame, beans, milk, etc., but these foods should not be eaten too much at a time. In addition, the autumn dryness is getting stronger and stronger after the heat. In order to prevent dryness from damaging the lungs, you can eat more foods that nourish yin and moisten dryness, such as pears, crystal sugar, tremella, Adenophora adenophora, ducks and other foods that nourish yin and promote fluid production, or health foods that have the effect of benefiting qi, such as Radix Astragali, Radix Codonopsis, squid and turtle.
9. Eat more fruits and vegetables and drink more porridge soup. After the summer heat, the climate gradually becomes dry, which hurts the lungs. If you often eat spicy fried food, it is easier to hurt your lungs and aggravate your dehydration and dryness. The best way to deal with "autumn dryness" is to drink more water. You can add salt or honey to boiling water, try to eat less fried, barbecue and hot food, and eat more fruits, lilies and some porridge soup that nourishes yin and moistens lungs, moistens dryness and promotes fluid production. Summer and autumn overlap, you can eat more sour fruits, such as oranges, hawthorn and green apples, and eat less sweet watermelons. Eating more porridge in autumn morning can not only strengthen the spleen and nourish the stomach, but also bring a refreshing day. In autumn, we often eat porridge: hawthorn rice porridge, pear rice porridge, rabbit rice porridge, white radish rice porridge, almond rice porridge, orange peel rice porridge, persimmon rice porridge and so on.
10, put less seasoning when cooking. It should be noted that autumn is cool and dry. When the weather turns cold, many people not only start to make up, but also put onions, ginger, garlic, leeks, peppers and other seasonings in their dishes. In autumn, the function of the lungs is on the high side. Eating too much spicy food will make the lung qi more vigorous, which will hurt the liver qi. Therefore, it is recommended to pay attention to the amount of seasoning when cooking, to be moderate, and not to put too much seasoning.
1 1. Blow less air conditioners and turn on less electric fans to keep healthy. The temperature difference between morning and evening in summer is large, and respiratory diseases such as pneumonia and asthma are easy to attack, and it is also a high incidence period of diseases such as hypertension, coronary heart disease, myocardial infarction and stroke. Frequently blowing air conditioners and electric fans may cause diseases such as scapulohumeral periarthritis, cervical spondylosis and gout; It may also lead to digestive system diseases such as diarrhea, gastritis and enteritis.
12. Apply moisturizing cream as soon as possible after bathing. Skin care products should be adjusted at any time according to seasonal changes and personal skin conditions. After autumn, you should choose skin care lotion or cream with low irritation, high water content and moisturizing function. Pay attention to sun protection when going out during the day. Don't take a bath for too long at night, and keep the water temperature below 39℃ to prevent water and oil loss caused by overheating. After bathing, under the condition that the skin is not completely dry, immediately apply emulsion or skin care products to moisturize the skin, thus forming a protective film on the skin surface, which helps to keep the skin moist and prevent the skin from moisture volatilization, thus effectively reducing the phenomenon of dry skin.
13, autumn fat should be posted step by step. In early autumn and summer, poor appetite gradually improved, and people began to actively or passively stick on autumn fat to store energy to cope with the cold in autumn and winter. However, people's gastrointestinal function is weak in summer and solar terms, and too much high-protein foods such as meat will increase the burden on the stomach and affect the gastrointestinal function.
14, develop abdominal breathing, abdominal breathing is very simple, that is, the abdomen bulges slightly outward when exhaling, and the stomach slowly contracts inward when exhaling. However, this breathing method can fully absorb oxygen into the body and convert it into the energy needed by the body, exchange it with the waste gas in the body, and discharge the waste gas out of the body, which can not only make you have a healthier body, but also maintain a balanced mental state.
15, do more exercise, you can choose walking, cycling, gymnastics, jogging, skipping rope, etc. The degree of exercise can be a little sweating all over. While exercising, you can bask in the sun moderately. Sunbathing time should be chosen in the evening, about half an hour at a time, and shelter should be chosen when sunbathing. Through moderate physical exercise and sunbathing, you can feel the comfort of outdoor sunshine and air, improve the utilization rate of oxygen, promote blood circulation, maintain vigorous metabolism in the body, and make sebaceous glands and sweat glands secrete normally, thus moisturizing the skin and preventing discomfort symptoms such as dryness, itching and peeling.
16, can adhere to the habit of cold water bath, cold water bath exercise must adopt a step-by-step method, such as the temperature gradually decreases in autumn, and the human body gradually adapts to the cold and cold water, and always adheres to it. In late autumn and early winter, it's not too cold to take a cold bath. The cold water bath should be gradual, including the bathing parts from local to whole body, with the water temperature from high to low and the bathing time from short to long.
17. Take good care of your navel. After the summer solar term, the weather is getting colder, and people begin to transition from heatstroke prevention to cold protection and warmth. Everyone knows that cold starts from the feet, and health care first raises the feet, but less attention is paid to the navel, which is also very susceptible to cold. The epidermis at the navel is the thinnest, and there is no adipose tissue under the skin, but there are rich nerve endings and nerve plexus, so it is particularly sensitive to external stimuli and is the easiest to penetrate and spread.
