How to read "Hot Summer"

The pinyin for "early summer" is chùshǔ.

Chùshǔ is one of the 24 solar terms in China, which means that summer is coming to an end and the temperature is gradually decreasing. It usually appears around August 23 or 24 of the Gregorian calendar. The word "summer heat" means that the summer heat is coming to an end and the weather is beginning to cool, which is a prelude to autumn.

In the traditional culture of China, summer is considered as the season when the yang is gradually closed and the yin is gradually rising. After the summer solstice, the yang spirit gradually weakens, and the summer heat marks the beginning of the balance between yin and yang. During this period, although the temperature is still high, it is not as hot as summer, and the climate begins to become pleasant. At this time, the harvest season has arrived, the crops in the farmland are gradually maturing, and people are busy preparing for the autumn harvest.

Matters needing attention in summer heat treatment

1, pay attention to sun protection: Although the high temperature in summer is gradually weakening, ultraviolet rays still exist, so you need to continue to pay attention to sun protection, especially when the sun is strong.

2, moderate warmth: the temperature is cool in summer, and the temperature difference between morning and evening is large. It is necessary to add clothes moderately to avoid catching cold, especially in the morning and evening.

3, strengthen exercise: proper exercise helps to enhance the body's immunity and improve resistance. Choose outdoor sports in the morning and evening when the temperature is pleasant, such as walking, jogging and playing Tai Ji Chuan.

4. Keep a good work and rest: In the midsummer season, the temperature difference between day and night is large. It is necessary to maintain good work and rest habits and ensure adequate sleep, which will help improve the adaptability of the body.
