Liqiu is the 13th solar term in the twenty-four solar terms, and it is also the first solar term in autumn. However, the lingering power of the summer heat is still there. It is often very hot during the day and cool at night, and the temperature difference between morning and evening becomes larger.
At the beginning of this solar term, we should pay attention to adapting to seasonal changes, adjusting our diet and daily life, adapting to natural changes, and taking good care of our bodies.
Key points for health care in the beginning of autumn
1. Diet: less spicy, more sour and less spicy
The weather turns cooler after the autumn. At this time, the body should not be too cold. Try to eat less onions, peppers and other categories that are easy to make the body hot to prevent getting angry. You can eat more pomegranates and lilies to quench thirst, nourish the lungs and moisten dryness.
2. Dressing: cover spring and autumn frost to improve resistance
In early autumn, the heat is not over, and the cool breeze is coming. When the weather suddenly turns cold, it is necessary to add clothes appropriately Otherwise, instead of preventing disease, it will invite disasters. From a medical point of view, “spring cover and autumn freeze” is very good for health. Because proper “freezing” can enhance the body’s ability to resist viruses.
3. Work and rest: go to bed early and get up early to prevent vascular disease
In work and rest, you should go to bed early and get up early. Go to bed early in the fall and get up early to compensate for the lack of sleep in summer. Generally speaking, it is more appropriate to go to bed at 9:00 pm to 10:00 pm and get up at 5:00 am to 6:00 am in autumn.
It is suggested that people who live in the city should go to bed before ten o’clock from the previous eleven o’clock, so that you can synchronize with the heaven and the earth. After the beginning of autumn, the weather has gradually become cooler. It is not as hot, humid and sultry as in the summer, which makes people unable to sleep, and the quality of people’s sleep will also improve.
In addition, entering autumn is a great time to carry out various sports exercises. People can choose different exercise programs according to their specific conditions, such as jogging, mountain climbing, ball games, etc. The amount of exercise in autumn and winter is compared with that in summer. It can be appropriately increased, and the exercise time can be lengthened, but pay attention to gradual progress.
