It is the nature of women to love beauty. The skin of the feet is radiant and rosy from the inside out.

Go to bed before 11pm
Introduced by Tianqi , Night is to the human body as winter is to nature, nature sleeps in winter, people also need to sleep at night, 11:00 pm is midnight, which is the winter of the human body. If you don’t sleep, the yang qi floats outside the body; when you sleep at this time, the yin, essence, qi, blood, and yang qi of the human body are all replenished. Therefore, going to bed early is better than the best tonic.
Early sleep and afternoon nap to nourish yin and yang
Sleep napping is one of the ancients’ sleep regimen, that is, to fall asleep at midnight and noon every day to achieve the purpose of longevity. Zi Shi is from 23:00 to 1:00 am, when the yin is the heaviest in the day; noon is from 11:00 to 13:00, when the yang is at its peak.
“The Yellow Emperor’s Classic of Internal Medicine” says: “When the yang qi is exhausted, you will lie down, and when the yin qi is exhausted, you will sleep soundly.” Yu Tianqi pointed out that these two periods are also the best time to sleep. Going to bed on time during these two periods is conducive to the growth of yang qi and the maintenance of yin qi. Therefore, at noon, “Heyang” has to sleep for a while. Even if he can’t sleep, he should “enter tranquility” to recuperate.
Perhaps for many people who are working hard in the workplace, going to bed early is a task that is more than enough but not enough. Yu Tianqi suggested that you might as well find time to take a nap. He believes that naps can not only eliminate the tension and fatigue of work during the day, but also eliminate irritability and maintain a good mood, and improve work efficiency in the afternoon.
