Many people wake up in the summer morning and feel thirsty. Zhangyan, a professor at Liaoning University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, told reporters that due to the high temperature in summer, it is inevitable that people will have insufficient body fluids after sleeping all night. At this time, people can lie still and let their tongues rotate in their mouths, from left to right for 36 times and from right to left for 36 times. Speed from slow to fast, action from small to big. In the process of tongue rotation, saliva is produced in the mouth. People can swallow their pride. Doing so has the effect of nourishing yin and moistening dryness. This action takes a minute and a half.
Next, people should keep their upper body still and try to turn their necks to their sides several times. Yao, a professor of orthopedics at Liaoning University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, said that it is easy to "cold evil" when the window is opened or the air conditioner is turned on in summer, and the temperature is low at night. The neck is the most vulnerable to cold. Therefore, the above practices can help people dredge the neck qi and blood, on the one hand, judge whether there is a stiff neck, on the other hand, it can reduce dizziness and confusion after getting up in the morning. If neck pain occurs during this process, Li Zhigang, a professor at Beijing University of Chinese Medicine, suggested that people can slowly turn their necks while pinching Neiguan point. This can effectively relieve the symptoms of neck pain. This process takes one and a half minutes.
After the first two movements are completed, people can spend a little time lying on the bed to move their fingers and toes, so that they can tighten, open, tighten and open again regularly and do abdominal breathing at the same time. Chen Yiguo, dean of the School of Acupuncture and Massage at Liaoning University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, said that stretching and massaging limbs, especially toes, in the morning can nourish the internal organs and regulate the peripheral blood circulation of the body, which is very good for the body. He also has the habit of massaging his toes after getting up in the morning. This process takes two minutes.
6 to 10 minutes after waking up, wake up the digestive function.
After the above conditioning, the body has basically been "activated". In particular, the intestinal function began to become active after being nourished by body fluids in the mouth. Chen Yiguo, dean of the School of Acupuncture and Massage at Liaoning University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, suggested that people might as well massage the Xiang Ying points on both sides of the nose and the back of the forearm on the toilet, as well as the straight groove point 3 inches behind the wrist. These two acupoints have the function of helping people defecate, so that the garbage in the body can be eliminated more cleanly. This process takes two and a half to three minutes.
Zhangyan, a professor at Liaoning University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, reminded that Chinese medicine believes that the heart and small intestine are exterior and interior, while the lungs and large intestine are exterior and interior. Because the abdomen needs to be forced when relieving oneself, people with poor cardiopulmonary function should be alert to "stealing the mother's gas." If people really feel that their brains and hearts are not refreshing after standing up, or even feel sleepy and confused, they can open the window and drink warm water while stretching and taking a deep breath. The windows in the east, southeast and south are better, which can nourish yang and smooth qi and blood. If you still feel dizzy at this time, you might as well put down the water cup and massage the auditory point (the depression when opening your mouth) located in front of the notch between the tragus, the pupil opening and the temple at the outer edge of the eye socket. This can help people improve their eyesight, clear their hearing and improve their mental state. This process takes two to two and a half minutes.
