The sting of the 24 solar terms has arrived on March 5, 2024, and the sting means that all things have begun to recover. According to the natural law of spring, summer, autumn harvest, and winter storage, the growth of all things enters a critical period at this time.
After the sting, we still have to be vigilant against the cold spring
There is a popular saying among the people, "the rain has no water, and the spring cold is stung" means that there is no rain in the rainy season, and when it is time to sting, there will be a spring cold. This year's spring is really a bit of a cold spring. The folk saying also says: "If the spring cold does not come, just look at the sting." "If the weather is still very cold on the day of the stinging solar term, then there may be a cold spring phenomenon in the next period of time. The inverted spring cold is like spring playing a little joke on us, making us suddenly feel a chill on a warm day.
The temperature warmed up, the spring thunder struck, and the rain increased, but the weather in Zhengzhou on March 5 seemed to be colder than usual, and there was a slight drizzle in the sky on March 6. This all means that the weather in Zhengzhou is experiencing a cold spring. The spring rain also sent some distress signals to the body, and some people with rheumatism, wind cold or underlying diseases began to "sing the opposite" and appeared various uncomfortable symptoms.
Professor Zhang Qingyun, the inheritor of Yizhishu and Zhang's Sanyuan Traditional Chinese Medicine Surgery, believes that the inverted spring cold has an adverse impact on agriculture and human health, so we must pay attention to preventing the inverted spring cold and take countermeasures.
Spring pours the spring cold, drains the cold of your body, and shields the cold of the outside world
Traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes the "harmony between man and nature", that is, man and nature should coexist in harmony. In the spring, with the growth of yang energy, the human body should also conform to this natural law, after experiencing a winter of cold, many people's cold constitution has not been dissipated, therefore, all kinds of rheumatism, wind and cold evil still become an important factor that troubles your health.
This is because, in the weather of "inverted spring cold", after the human body is stimulated by low temperature, there will be sympathetic nerve stimulation, and the capillaries of the whole body will constrict, which will increase the load on the heart and brain and cause blood pressure to rise, and the brain will be ischemia and hypoxia, which will become the key factor of various underlying diseases. At the same time, the cold constitution has not been removed, the blood flow is still in a relatively sluggish state, and the dry climate in spring consumes a lot of water, which can easily lead to blood viscosity and slow down blood flow. can be a trigger for various health problems.
Again, at this time, the temperature is fickle, and the yin and evil in the outside world often take advantage of the opportunity to enter, making your already cold physique even worse. This is because the cold evil prevails when the "spring cold" is prevalent, and the cold is mainly retracted, which has the characteristics of cold and coagulation, which is easy to damage people's yang energy, and makes people's body surface cold and stomach cold, and makes people's blood flow slow down, or even stagnate, and the veins are rigid.
Therefore, in an environment where climate change is unpredictable and the cold of spring affects the body's physique, Professor Zhang Qingyun believes that you should first drain the cold of your body and shield yourself from the cold of the outside world.
How to get rid of the cold, Professor Zhang Qingyun has something to say
It is safe to say that the internal cold of the human body and the external cold evil are the key factors that hinder the growth of the body. Professor Zhang Qingyun gave an example. In spring, everything grows, but the cold climate and environment hinder the growth conditions, just like the wheat seedlings in the field, which are affected by freezing snow and cold environment, which is not conducive to the growth of wheat seedlings.
On the other hand, when it comes to people, the weather is cold, the yin qi is heavy, the body cannot be yin and yang, the evil of cold and dampness hinders the qi and blood meridians, and the body will not be healthy without a good hair growth condition. To relieve the cold of the body, Professor Zhang Qingyun believes that the spleen yang and kidney yang should be warmed and replenished through the Yizhi technique and Zhang's Sanyuan**.
When the body's yang energy rises, it is nourishing the liver and promoting the excretion of the liver, "Su Wen: Yin and Yang should be like the Great Treatise": "The East gives birth to wind, wind gives birth to wood, wood produces acid, acid gives birth to liver, liver produces tendons, tendons give birth to heart, and the liver is the main eye......."Anger hurts the liver, sorrow beats anger, wind hurts tendons, dryness beats wind; Soreness hurts tendons, bitterness is better than sour. ”
Judging from the text of the ancients, spring corresponds to the liver, the liver is like a tree that grows in spring, it likes Tiaoda, does not like depression, and at the same time it does not like too much sourness, sourness will make it converge, and it will not grow well. Therefore, in this cold spring, you must remember to drain the cold first, nourish the liver, and create a warm and accessible environment for your body.
