Health culture in the twenty-four solar terms

At the vernal equinox, the wind is sunny, the spring breeze blows, the grass begins to grow, the flowers begin to grow tender, and everything is so beautiful. So, do you know how to keep fit during the spring equinox and solar terms? Next, let's take a look at the health culture in the spring equinox!

How to keep healthy during the vernal equinox

Health care Because the vernal equinox and solar terms divide day and night equally, people should pay attention to maintaining the balance of yin and yang in health care. Su Wenzhi's Theory of Truth: "Carefully observe the positions of Yin and Yang and adjust them to make them equal." That is to say, the human body should coordinate the physiological movements of viscera, qi and blood and essence with the external movements of brain, physical strength and exercise, so as to maintain the balance between supply and demand. It is necessary to avoid inappropriate exercise, which will destroy the balance of the internal and external environment of the human body, accelerate the damage of some organs and the imbalance of physiological functions, and then cause diseases and shorten people's life.

Su Wen Gu Kong Lun: "Adjust its yin and yang, if it is insufficient, it will be supplemented, and if it is excessive, it will be diarrhea." Traditional diet and traditional Chinese medicine treatment can be summarized as tonifying deficiency and purging excess. Such as benefiting qi and nourishing blood, nourishing yin and strengthening yang, replenishing essence and promoting fluid production to tonify deficiency; Relieving exterior and clearing heat, promoting diuresis and diarrhea, dispelling cold and expelling wind, and drying dampness can be regarded as diarrhea. The practice of TCM health care proves that no matter tonic or diarrhea, we must adhere to the principle of adjusting yin and yang and carrying out scientific diet and health care, so as to effectively prevent and treat many non-communicable diseases.

Beginning of spring solar term to Tomb-Sweeping Day Qi is the budding period of plant growth, and the human blood is also in a vigorous period, and the hormone level is also in a relative peak. At this time, the common non-communicable diseases that are prone to occur are hypertension, menstrual disorder, hemorrhoids and allergic diseases.

In traditional medicine, the vernal equinox regimen is said to be prone to diarrhea in the morning. The vernal equinox is supposed to be a period of balance between yin and yang, but the body with yang deficiency is too weak to balance with yin, so the essence of yang deficiency is more easily revealed. Therefore, five classes of diarrhea often occur, also known as chicken crow diarrhea, which is characterized by meal diarrhea, that is, diarrhea that does not melt after eating grain. People with white tongue coating, weak pulse, fear of cold and cold below the waist can take Fuzi Lizhong Pill or Jinbian Shenqi Pill to warm the middle and support the yang. Usually, you can often stew soup with dried ginger or eat stewed chicken soup with dried ginger.

Live a healthy life

Early to bed and early to rise should nourish the liver.

Huangdi Neijing said: "In the spring of March, this is called the birth of Chen, the birth of the world, the glory of all things, lying at night and getting up early, striding to court, being delayed, making life, not killing, giving without taking, rewarding without punishment, which is the answer of spring and the way of health preservation. After the vernal equinox, nature is full of vitality and everything is thriving. At this time, people should go to bed early and get up early, go for a walk in the morning, and relax their bodies so that their emotions are not invaded by spring, which is also a health preservation method to adapt to spring.

Don't cut down on winter clothes prematurely.

"No clothes in spring, no hats in autumn". After the vernal equinox, the temperature in some areas has not warmed up, so don't throw away your winter clothes too early. After wearing cotton-padded clothes for several months in winter, the regulation of body heat generation and radiation is in a relatively balanced state with the ambient temperature in winter. From winter to early spring, it is warm and cold, and the temperature changes greatly. If you take off your winter clothes too early, once the temperature drops, it will be difficult to adapt, which will reduce your body's resistance. Bacteria can easily cause various respiratory diseases and infectious diseases in winter and spring.

Open more windows and ventilate frequently.

The weather has just changed from cold to warm in early spring, and all kinds of pathogenic bacteria and viruses grow and multiply. In order to avoid the occurrence of various diseases in spring, preventive measures are essential. "In home life, we should pay attention to opening windows frequently to make indoor air circulate and keep the air fresh". At about 8 am, the temperature is generally low and the air quality is good, which is a good time to open the window for ventilation. In addition, the bedroom should be ventilated at least after a nap and before going to bed at night.
