Heavy snow in three seasons
In ancient times, people divided heavy snow into three seasons: one waited for the quail to not sound, the second waited for the tiger to make love, and the third waited for the lychee to emerge.
Hé dàn does not chirp during heavy snowfall, and even the cold trumpet birds (i.e., the compound-toothed squirrel) no longer chirp during the snowy season.
Because this is the peak period of Yin Qi, the so-called prosperity and decline, and the Yang Qi has sprouted, so the tiger has begun to have courtship behavior.
Li Ting, a kind of orchid called Li Ting, also draws out new shoots due to the germination of yang qi.

Heavy snow regimen
It is advisable to keep warm: the snow is dry in the north and the air humidity is very low. Dress should increase with the decrease of temperature, do not make the skin sweat out, and protect the yang from invasion.
The temperature at night will be lower, and when lying down at night, you should add more clothing, keep the temperature of your limbs, and flow your qi and blood, so that you can avoid the occurrence of many diseases.
Ventilation: It is cold in winter, and some people like to close the doors and windows or cover their heads to sleep, which is a very bad habit.
In addition to opening doors and windows during the day and allowing air to convect, small air windows should be opened for ventilation at night. Late at night, the body's resistance declines, and it is necessary to strengthen the monitoring of weak and sick people.
