A year's plan lies in spring, and spring health care is indispensable.
Huangdi Neijing said, "Spring is March, and it is called Chen. Heaven and earth are born and everything is glorious. " Among the 24 solar terms, spring begins in beginning of spring and then goes through six solar terms, including rain, fright, vernal equinox, Qingming and Grain Rain. With the warming of our weather, human metabolism accelerates, so keeping in good health in spring should conform to the characteristics of rising yang and everything starting to grow. So what should we pay attention to?

First, raise yang in spring.

In spring, the temperature rises gradually, and the yang of human body and nature begins to rise and grow. Therefore, with the warmer weather in spring, people began to go outdoors one after another, and the amount of activities increased, accompanied by an increase in sweating. At this time, it is necessary to prevent cold pathogens from entering the body and causing cold diseases. Therefore, it is also suggested that you should not cut your clothes too early in the early spring, which will lead to respiratory diseases such as colds and coughs caused by wind-cold. In addition, some people say that "spring is sleepy and autumn is lacking." This reason is because after the four seasons change, the peripheral blood of the body increases, sweat secretion also begins to increase, and the load of various organs also begins to increase, resulting in a decrease in blood supply to the brain. So at this time, the ancients said that "early to bed and early to rise" is also the same reason. After getting up in the morning, you can take a walk and jog.

Second, prevent diseases.

In the case of normalization in COVID-19, it is suggested that everyone should wear masks when going out, and try not to go to crowded places, especially those with basic diseases. In addition, spring is also a time when influenza, pneumonia, bronchopneumonia, bronchitis and other diseases occur frequently. We should pay attention to daily window ventilation, improve our immunity through diet and proper aerobic exercise, and resist the invasion of various diseases.

Third, nourishing the liver in spring

Chinese medicine has always said that "spring should nourish the liver". Spring belongs to wood, and the liver belongs to wood among the five internal organs of the human body. The main function of the liver is to regulate and relieve emotions. If the catharsis function of the liver decreases and the liver qi stagnates, it is easy to feel depressed. If there are too many drainage functions, you will be irritable. Therefore, to nourish the liver in spring, we must first keep calm and comfortable, and choose appropriate ways to adjust our emotions and relieve stress.
