Light snow time in 2022:165438+1October 22nd 16:20: 18, 20221October 29th.
Every year165438+1October 22nd and 23rd, when the sun reaches 240 degrees of the longitude of the Yellow River, it is light snow. The temperature dropped and it began to snow, but it was not the season of heavy snow, so it was called light snow. Before and after the light snow, it began to snow in the Yellow River basin (snowfall in the south is two solar terms later); In the north, it has entered the freezing season.
The story of xiaoxue
When you point at yourself, it's cloudy, the cold is not deep, and the snow is not big, so it's named Xiaoxue.
Xiao Xue Sanhou
When the rainbow disappears, the weather rises, the atmosphere drops and is blocked, it becomes winter.
"Snow in winter, snow in winter, slight cold in winter",1October 22nd or 23rd, Xiaoxue, the 20th solar term of the year, will arrive as scheduled on the long-standing 165438+ in beginning of winter every year. At this time, the direct point of the sun moved to 240 longitude, and the cold air force in the north increased, and the temperature quickly dropped to about 0℃. Snowflakes will appear during precipitation, but this is the first snow stage, and the amount of snow is small. The Yellow River basin began to snow after the light snow festival, while the southern region was covered with flowers and frosted on the ground, showing the breath of early winter.
The ancient book "Qunfangpu" said: "The light snow is cold and it will snow, but the ground is cold and the snow is not big." It means that the temperature drops in the light snow season, so snowflakes are produced; However, the snow at this stage is often half frozen and half melted, or it melts immediately after landing, which is often called "sleet". There is less precipitation and more fog before and after the light snow, so we should pay special attention to health care, protect the yang in the body, maintain a good mood and healthy living habits, and thus successfully spend the cold winter.
What does Xiaoxue eat?
1. In the north, it is mainly to replenish qi and blood, consolidate the foundation and cultivate the yuan. However, in this subtropical region of Guangdong, it is necessary to replenish qi and strengthen yang on the basis of nourishing yin. The medicinal materials available are Radix Angelicae Sinensis, Radix Rehmanniae, Fructus Lycii, Radix Paeoniae Alba, Atractylodis Rhizoma, Poria, Fructus Jujubae, and Radix Glycyrrhizae. Radix Angelicae Sinensis, Radix Rehmanniae, Fructus Lycii, Radix Paeoniae Alba, Poria, Fructus Jujubae and Radix Glycyrrhizae 2. Eat more radish, rape, spinach, fresh lotus root, edible fungi, celery, tomatoes, bitter gourd, black fungus, pork, tofu, chicken, beef, mutton, apples, oranges, chestnuts, oranges and other foods every day. White radish green radish carrot rape spinach lotus root edible fungus celery tomato bitter gourd black fungus pork tofu chicken beef mutton apple chestnut orange.
1, avoid hot and dry products, such as velvet antler, deer fetus, aconite, etc. Deer antler and deer fetus say that aconite 2, avoid eating cold fruits, ice cream, frozen drinks and so on. This cold food hinders the spleen and stomach, which is not conducive to water and moisture transport. It can accumulate dampness and produce phlegm, and aggravate the symptoms of chronic bronchitis and cough and expectoration that are easy to occur in winter. Frozen drinks ◎ Four kinds of food can keep out the cold.
It's getting colder and colder after the light snow. It is a good way to warm your body quickly by guiding food to replenish energy. We should eat more food that can effectively resist the cold. The following four foods can make people feel warm quickly:
Meat: protein, fat and carbohydrate are called thermogenic nutrients, and dog meat, mutton, beef and octopus are all rich in these nutrients. Eating these kinds of meat properly in Xiaoxue Festival can promote metabolism and speed up blood circulation, thus playing a role in keeping out the cold.
Roots: Studies show that root vegetables rich in minerals, such as carrots, sweet potatoes, lotus roots, cauliflower and potatoes, can effectively improve the cold resistance of human body.
Foods with high iron content: Iron deficiency often leads to iron deficiency anemia, and poor blood circulation caused by iron deficiency anemia can reduce the body's heat production and lead to low body temperature. Therefore, eating more foods rich in iron, such as animal blood, egg yolk, pig liver, bovine kidney, soybean, sesame, yuba, auricularia auricula, etc., is of great benefit to improving the cold resistance of human body.
Foods with high iodine content: thyroxine can accelerate the oxidation of tissues and cells in the body, improve the body's heat production capacity, enhance the basal metabolic rate, and accelerate blood circulation, thus achieving the purpose of keeping out the cold. Generally, foods with high iodine content can promote the secretion of thyroxine, such as kelp, seaweed, shellfish, spinach, fish and shrimp.
◎ Clever use of food to regulate emotions
Due to the sudden drop in temperature and insufficient light, many people's emotions will fluctuate to varying degrees before and after the cold light and light snow solar terms, which are manifested as losing their temper, fidgeting and inexplicable loss. At this time, if you eat some foods that have the effect of calming the nerves and removing mania, you will achieve a good conditioning effect.
When you fly into a rage, you should eat more melon seeds, because the B vitamins and magnesium rich in melon seeds can eliminate heart fire, stabilize blood sugar and make your mood tend to be peaceful.
Eating bananas is the best choice when you feel wronged. According to the survey, both depression and depression are caused by low serotonin content in the body, and bananas are fruits rich in serotonin, so eating bananas can quickly make people feel better.
I feel anxious, mostly because there is something wrong with the central nervous system. At this time, the first food is oats. Oats can not only delay the release of energy, but also inhibit the brain from being overexcited because of the sudden increase of blood sugar. Its rich vitamin B 1 is a "lubricant" for balancing the central nervous system, which can calm people down as soon as possible.
Xiaoxue should eat the most.

Light snow health is fundamental ● Yang deficiency, frostbite and even
Frostbite is a local skin inflammatory injury caused by cold. Before and after the light snow, the outdoor temperature in many areas has dropped below freezing point, so this is the high incidence of frostbite, especially in the hands, feet, nose tip, ears, earlobes, cheeks and other parts.
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that chilblain is closely related to deficiency of both qi and blood. Before and after the light snow, qi and blood run more smoothly, and chilblain will naturally come uninvited. In addition, overwork, too little exercise and improper methods of keeping out the cold can also lead to frostbite; People with special hands and feet in love sweating tend to dissipate heat quickly, so the chances of suffering from chilblain are higher than the average person. Health pointed out that before and after the arrival of the light snow solar term, people with insufficient yang and weak constitution should pay special attention to prevent freezing as soon as possible.
Specifically, people with yang deficiency should first pay attention to keeping warm, keeping clothes, shoes and hats dry and comfortable, and paying attention to "taking heat" in diet. People who often work at their desks and students sitting in front of computers should also pay attention to the combination of work and rest, and often get up and exercise to ensure the smooth flow of qi and blood in the body. If you have chilblains on your hands and feet, soak them in warm water at about 45℃. If there is chilblain in other parts, you can use a towel to compress it. Doing so can promote local blood circulation and accelerate the recovery of frostbite.
● Maintain peace of mind.
Cold weather often makes people feel depressed and depressed, especially before and after the light snow festival with low temperature and short light time. Bad mood will not only affect the quality of our study, work and life, but also do harm to our health, so we must learn to adjust our mentality and mood.
Chinese medicine believes that a good mood and cheerful personality can make people healthier, while people who are often impatient or pessimistic are often in poor health. This is because bad emotions will consume energy and hurt the soul, leading to disharmony between yin and yang in the body and loss of viscera. Over time, various diseases will come to you.
According to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, bright sunshine can make people feel happy and mentally happy. This is because sunbathing helps to develop the yang in the body. When the yang is sufficient, the meridians will be smooth, the qi and blood will be harmonious, the mood will naturally be more comfortable, and people's mental state will be better. Therefore, in the light snow season, we should take part in outdoor activities and physical exercise, often sunbathe and supplement the yang, so as to have a good mood and do our best.
Xiaoxue daily hygiene ◎ Brush your teeth with warm water to protect your mouth.
Human teeth and gums can only be metabolized normally at a suitable temperature. Too cold or too hot water can irritate the oral cavity, even lead to various tooth and gum diseases and shorten the life of teeth. In the light snow season, the temperature has dropped to 0℃ or even lower. At this time, more attention should be paid to maintaining the constant temperature of the oral cavity, especially for patients with oral diseases such as tooth allergy, dental caries, periodontitis, gingivitis and oral ulcer. Avoid brushing your teeth with cold water and overheated water, otherwise it will easily aggravate your condition.
Specifically, brushing water should be controlled at around 35℃ this season. This kind of warm water can make people feel very comfortable, and can remove the bacteria attached to the mouth and the food residue between the teeth to the maximum extent. In order to better protect teeth and gums, we should try to avoid eating food that is too cold or too hot; Brush your teeth or rinse your mouth with warm water immediately after three meals to keep your mouth clean and prevent oral diseases from taking advantage of it.
◎ Xiaoxue soaking feet plus Chinese medicine
Soaking feet with hot water is a popular way for many people, especially middle-aged and elderly people, especially before and after the light snow festival in cold weather. Chinese medicine believes that the foot, as the "second heart" of the human body, is closely related to human health. Every part of the body has a corresponding reflex zone on the foot. By stimulating these reflex zones, we can not only relax the channels and activate the collaterals, adjust the functions of viscera, but also make physiological changes in the corresponding parts of the body, so as to achieve the so-called purpose of treating diseases and strengthening the body with foot bath in traditional Chinese medicine. That is to say, different Chinese herbal medicines are mixed with warm water, and the medicinal components developed after the Chinese herbal medicines are fully dissolved reach the internal organs through the acupoints of the feet, thus achieving the effect of "treating internal diseases externally". For example, people with qi deficiency are suitable to choose Codonopsis pilosula, Astragalus membranaceus and Atractylodes macrocephala to soak their feet; People with blood deficiency and kidney deficiency are suitable for soaking feet with angelica, red peony root, red pepper and dipsacus root. Patients who are taking traditional Chinese medicine decoction to treat some chronic diseases can choose symptomatic drugs to soak their feet, such as chrysanthemum, medlar and mulberry branches, which are suitable for patients with hypertension, and Tianqi and Danshen are suitable for patients with stroke. In addition, you can also soak your feet with the residue left after boiling traditional Chinese medicine, so as to achieve the effect of two-pronged treatment.
Efficacy.
It should be noted that Chinese medicine foot bath also needs to choose a footbath. Metal and plastic will affect the curative effect, so we should avoid using these two pots for Chinese medicine foot bath. If the skin of the foot is damaged or cut, you should stop using Chinese herbal medicine to soak your feet to prevent wound infection. Of course, traditional Chinese medicine foot bath is mostly adjuvant treatment, so don't rely too much on it, so as not to delay the illness.
Light snow fitness ◎ Six ways to keep yourself from being impatient and overly nervous.
The cold weather in the light snow season makes people feel depressed, negative and restless. Once these negative emotions persist for a long time, they will definitely harm people's health. Here are some ways to relieve these bad emotions.
The first trick: take a deep breath. Inhale slowly and deeply, then exhale slowly, and repeat this process many times. While using deep breathing to relax, you can constantly give yourself psychological hints, that is, say "relax" and "relax" ...
The second trick: divert attention. Focus all your attention on one thing. For example, in daily life, we can stare at a lamp, a painting or a wall for a long time, carefully observe and appreciate their beauty, and our mood will tend to be calm unconsciously.
The third measure: imagine. Sit in a comfortable chair or lean back on the soft sofa, gently close your eyes, slightly loosen your jaw and relax your whole body, and calm down to imagine a beautiful scene or a fascinating thing, such as the afterglow of the sunset, the beautiful gold coast, the slowly flowing clear spring and so on.
The fourth measure: muscle tension. Close your eyes hard, and then slowly relax; Bite your teeth hard and then relax slowly; Clench your fist hard, then slowly relax ... relax all parts of your body from head to toe in turn. Of course, there is a simpler way: stretch a lot, and then relax, and you will immediately feel a lot of relaxation, and the effect of relaxation will be immediate.
The fifth measure: put the word "big". Lie on the bed and stretch your limbs, put yourself in a "big" shape, put a small pillow under your neck and knees, close your eyes, let your body relax completely, concentrate, and move your fingers or toes frequently.
The sixth trick: listen to music. The specific operation method is: in a quiet place, bathed in warm sunshine, relax yourself by sitting or lying down, close your eyes and listen to some soothing and soft music. Wonderful piano music and touching national classical music are all good choices.
Light snow sports health ◎ Light snow is flying, and dance is nourishing the soul.
With the arrival of the light snow solar term, spring is chilly in most parts of northern China; The weather in the south is also very wet and cold, and emotions such as sadness, loneliness and melancholy are likely to follow. According to the traditional theory of health preservation, the sadness and joy of the mood will affect the health of the body to some extent; Similarly, the quality of the body will directly affect the change of mood. Therefore, in the light snow season, it is a good choice to keep an optimistic and cheerful mood and take part in more sports activities, such as dancing.
Dancing with beautiful music is very beneficial to people's physical and mental health. Because dancing can promote blood circulation, speed up metabolism, fully stretch and exercise various organs of the body, and effectively nourish muscle tissue; At the same time, dancing in cheerful and soothing music can make people forget fatigue and tension, not only feel relaxed and happy, but also get a beautiful enjoyment. Therefore, the dual regulation of dance on human physiology and psychology is incomparable to other sports.
Although dancing has many benefits, but in the cold light snow season, dancing should pay attention to several issues:
First, when dancing, don't take off too many clothes at a time because you want to "go into battle lightly", but gradually take off your clothes when your body gets hot after dancing for a while. Pay special attention to keep warm after sweating, and don't stay in wet clothes for too long to avoid catching a cold.
Second, try to dance in places with few people and smooth air circulation. It is not advisable to "get together" in places with many people to prevent physical discomfort caused by lack of oxygen.
Thirdly, because people's vascular elasticity will become worse when the weather is cold, dancing with too fast rhythm will make people breathe faster, blood pressure suddenly rise, and heart rate will accelerate, which is easy to induce cardiovascular diseases, and people with relevant medical history may even aggravate their illness.
Fourth, don't dance immediately after eating too much. This is because dancing with a full stomach will affect digestion and easily induce gastrointestinal diseases.
Fifth, the time of dancing should be properly controlled, and attention should be paid to rest in time. If you feel dizzy, chest tightness, shortness of breath or rapid heartbeat during dancing, you should sit down and rest immediately.
Intimate reminder:
When you are alone, you can also dance in a relatively spacious place such as the living room or yard at home. Choose your favorite music and your favorite movements. Maybe our dance is not beautiful, but the most important thing is to devote yourself to the wonderful melody and feel that kind of comfort and relaxation. Dance is just a form, and the purpose of dancing is to fully relax your body and mind.
