Beginning of spring is the most important solar term in a year. What should I pay attention to?

"Stop" means "start". Since the Qin Dynasty, China has always regarded beginning of spring as the beginning of spring. Beginning of spring is divided from astronomy, with warm spring and fragrant flowers in bloom. Spring is growth, cultivation and sowing. "One day in beginning of spring, a hundred herbs germinate", the east wind thaws, the stinging insects begin to tremble, the fish are frozen, and everything recovers. In spring, it's not too late to compete for the sun.

Li Chun from North and South: Health care should be different.

The climate in northern and southern China is very different. The north is still freezing and snowy, and the south is already warm in spring in bloom (this year is a special case, similar to 2009, and there is snow in the south), so the health care after the beginning of spring in the north and south is different.

North: "Spring covers autumn" is very suitable.

The health proverb "Spring covers autumn and freezing" says that it is not appropriate to take off your cotton coat in early spring to prevent spring cold. Spring is warm and cold, and the temperature difference between day and night is large. In spring, you must "cover" your body and pay attention to proper clothes. Generally speaking, there are often repeated cold weather in spring, and clothes should be gradually reduced, so it is advisable to wear warmer clothes.

South: It's time to strengthen exercise and prevent diseases.

After beginning of spring, the weather became warmer, the days became longer, and the temperature, sunshine and precipitation increased, which was more obvious in the southern region. In spring, everything revives and all kinds of germs are active. You'd better take the following measures: first, eliminate the source of infection; Second, open the window often to keep the air fresh; Third, increase outdoor exercise, strengthen exercise, and improve the body's defense and disease resistance; Fourth, eat more light food.

Six principles that should be paid attention to in spring health preservation

1, don't cut clothes too early.

"No clothes in spring, no hats in autumn". The temperature in early spring hasn't warmed up yet, 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 production and radiation is in a relatively balanced state with the environmental 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, it will be difficult to adapt once the temperature drops, which will reduce your body's resistance. Bacteria attack the body, which is easy to cause various respiratory diseases and infectious diseases in winter and spring.

2. Eat less tonic and salt.

Many people advocate winter tonic, but beginning of spring should be moderate in the later period. All the year round has the characteristics of "long spring and long summer, harvest in autumn and store in winter". Born in nature, we must conform to the laws of nature. In winter, according to personal physique, it conforms to the principle of winter storage and health preservation. However, during this period of spring, the amount of tonic, whether food or medicine, should be gradually reduced to gradually adapt to the seasonal characteristics of comfort, rising and arrival in the coming spring. At the same time, it is also very important to reduce salt intake, because salty taste enters the kidney, and eating too much salt is easy to hurt kidney qi, which is not conducive to maintaining Yang Qi.

3. Get up early and go to bed early to nourish the liver.

Huangdi Neijing said: "In the spring of March, this is called Chen Zhisheng, the world is born, and everything is glorious. He lies at night and gets up early, striding to court and being delayed, so as to live, live without killing, give without taking, reward without punishment. This is the answer of spring and the way of health preservation. On the contrary, it hurts the liver ... ". This means that after beginning of spring, 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, relax themselves, and let their emotions grow with spring without violating it. This is the way to keep fit for spring. If this method is violated, the liver will be damaged, which is the basis of spring delivery. So in spring, the way to keep fit is to relax and adjust your mood.

4. comb your hair one hundred times a day

Health theory says: "In spring and March, comb your hair one or two hundred times every morning." Combing your hair every day in spring is a good health care method. Because spring is the season when the natural yang rises, at this time, the yang of the human body also conforms to nature and has the characteristics of rising upward and outward, which is manifested in the gradual expansion of pores, vigorous metabolism and rapid growth. Therefore, combing hair in spring just meets the requirements of health preservation in this spring, and plays an important role in promoting qi circulation, relieving depression, dredging qi and blood, and invigorating yang.

5. Eat more leeks and coriander.

In spring, Yang was born. Besides nourishing yang, diet should also nourish viscera. We should eat some sweet products properly, not sour ones. Because the sour taste enters the liver, it has astringent taste, which is not conducive to the growth of yang and the release of liver qi.

Eat more: spring buds, bamboo shoots, honey, cherries, spinach, onions, ginger, garlic, leeks, red dates and so on.

Food can choose spicy onion, coriander, peanut, leek, shrimp and so on. Eat less spicy food.

Scrambled eggs with leek and shrimp skin is a good medicinal diet in early spring. Wash a handful of leeks, 2-3 eggs, and appropriate amount of shrimp skin. Cut the leek into small pieces and beat the eggs evenly after breaking the shell. Heat the wok. When the vegetable oil is warm, stir-fry the shrimps until fragrant. Then pour in the beaten eggs, fry the eggs until they are slightly shaped, and then pour in the leeks. Stir-fry for a while, then add salt, Jiang Mo and monosodium glutamate and stir-fry for a while. Leek is pungent and warm, which is helpful for human growth, soothing yang qi and nourishing blood with eggs. This dish can nourish the liver, nourish blood and nourish yang, so it is suitable for beginning of spring.

6, to prevent the recurrence of old diseases

There is an old saying: "A hundred herbs germinate, and old diseases germinate." It can be seen that beginning of spring is a season with frequent diseases. The frequently-occurring diseases in spring include pneumonia, hepatitis, meningitis, measles, mumps, allergic asthma, myocardial infarction and psychosis. Therefore, patients with hepatitis, allergic asthma and myocardial infarction should pay special attention to aftercare prevention.

Li Chun from North and South: Health care should be different.

Anger in spring is easy to hurt the liver, and anger does not last more than 3 minutes.

In spring, liver yang and liver fire rise, and the demand is released appropriately. The liver likes to relieve depression, and anger and anger can easily lead to liver depression and qi stagnation, leading to various liver diseases. Therefore, spring must be calm, optimistic and cheerful. Learn to be calm when you are angry, even if you are angry, don't be angry for more than 3 minutes.

Regular massage of Taichong point (located on the back of foot, 1 behind metatarsal space) in spring can relieve mood and chest discomfort. In addition, tapping the gallbladder meridian in spare time (sitting in a chair with one leg on the other leg, starting from the Huantiao point at the junction of the outer thigh and pelvis, tapping in the direction of the knee, once * * * four times, counting as 1 time every four times, and tapping the left and right thighs 50 times a day) can promote the function of soothing the liver.
