Dear friends, the beginning of winter has arrived, how to maintain health accurately? This is extremely important to us. Next, I will elaborate on the method of winter health preservation from the perspective of "three Tibets and five defenses".
Comrades, let me tell you a little story. Uncle Zhang is 68 years old this year, and he usually pays attention to diet and daily life, but after the beginning of winter, he has not adjusted his lifestyle. As a result, Uncle Zhang was in the first week after the beginning of winter, with sore bones all over his body and no strength all over his body. Later, he consulted a local ancestor, and only then did he know that he should take proper care after the beginning of winter, otherwise he would easily get sick.
At the beginning of winter, the temperature drops, and the time has come for the alternation of yin and yang. We need to adjust our daily life and diet in time to adapt to the change of seasons and ensure good health. It is mainly embodied in the "three Tibets and five defenses".
First of all, we should talk about the "three Tibets", Tibetan yang, that is, pay attention to keeping warm from the cold, especially to protect the chest and abdomen, which is the center of our human body. You can wear a few extra pieces of clothing, or warm your baby with a warm baby. To hide yin, you should eat more foods like black beans and black fungus to replenish kidney essence and nourish kidney yin. Storing essence is to avoid overwork, ensure adequate sleep, and don't stay up late to nourish your spirit.
Then there is the "five prevention", cold and wind, and the most afraid of cold in the beginning of winter is cold. Keep your head, hands and feet warm. To prevent dryness, pay attention to humidification at home, **apply moisturizer. Prevent colds, pay attention to ventilation, and remember to wear a mask when you go out. Anti-claustrophobia, that is, to ensure air circulation. These "five defenses" are designed to prevent external evil from invading our bodies.
Let me tell you about the diet therapy in the beginning of winter. "Three whites" refers to Sydney, white fungus and ginkgo seeds. These three are all cool foods, which are very suitable for seasonal consumption, which can clear away heat and phlegm, and nourish yin and nourish the body. The "five blacks" are more nourishing and strong, with black beans, black sesame seeds, black fungus, black wolfberries and black rice. These foods have a good function of calcium and iron supplementation, especially suitable for middle-aged and elderly people.
The ancients paid attention to "the beginning of winter to replenish the kidney", which is the most important way to maintain health in the beginning of winter. Let me introduce you to the famous secret recipe for the beginning of winter in history - turtle jelly. This plaster is made of a variety of medicinal materials such as turtle plate and poria cocos, and its function is to nourish the kidney essence, which is very suitable for eating in the beginning of winter. As long as the beginning of winter comes, ordinary people will hurry up to eat some, especially those who are more than half a hundred years old, and the effect is better. This ancient recipe has been passed down to this day, which proves its health benefits.
Next, I would like to give you some more advice. In the beginning of winter, we must control the "three mouths". "One bite of rice", don't overeat, it's easy to get flatulent if you eat too much. "One breath", to breathe more fresh air and absorb yang energy. "One word", don't make a loud noise, that will easily hurt your strength. In addition, I also recommend that you exercise appropriately, especially Tai Chi, Baduanjin, and Wufowl Opera, which are very helpful for overall conditioning. Finally, I advocate that everyone should be closer to nature, you can go for a walk in the countryside, pick some fruits, and fly kites, which can relieve stress and cultivate temperament.
Let me tell you another controversial little story. Aunt Li's wife, Uncle Liu, is 65 years old this year, and her biggest hobbies are smoking and drinking. After arriving at the beginning of winter, Aunt Li persuaded him to stop smoking, and health preservation was the most important. Uncle Liu disagreed, saying that he had been used to it for many years and couldn't quit, and smoking and drinking also brought him a lot of fun, and he didn't want to give up. Personally, I think it's a matter of degree. It is true that you need to take proper care after the beginning of winter, but you can't ask people to completely change their lifestyle. I think we can take a gradual approach, such as asking Uncle Liu to smoke less and drink less alcohol at the beginning, and then gradually reduce it, and finally achieve the goal of quitting.
It is indeed important to maintain health in the beginning of winter, but the method cannot be one-size-fits-all, it must be different from person to person, step by step, which is the true meaning of the way to health. I wonder if you have any wise advice on my opinions?
