As the saying goes: "Spring covers autumn frost, do not produce miscellaneous diseases." ”
However, spring cover is not just as simple as wearing more clothes.
Just take off the autumn pants, the cold wave will kill a horse gun;
I changed into winter clothes again, but it was hot again.
Hot and cold alternate, and if you don't pay attention, you will get sick.
Chunfu is exquisite, does not understand the rules, and the body has to suffer a big loss!
Cover where
- Cover your stomach
The stomach is the place where the organs gather, and it is also the key to the operation of qi and blood.
Especially the navel, which is called "Shen Que Acupoint" in Chinese medicine.
Protecting this acupuncture point can encourage the spleen and stomach yang qi.
Especially people with cold stomach, diarrhea, and irregular menstruation, we must pay special attention to the warmth of the stomach.
Do not wear low-rise pants or crop tops.
You can also use the kneading method to warm this acupuncture point:
Every night before going to bed, on an empty stomach, rub your hands warm, fold on the navel, and rub until it is slightly warm.
If diarrhea is usual, it can be rubbed counterclockwise; people with constipation can be rubbed clockwise.
- Cover your back
Chinese medicine believes: "The waist is the house of the kidneys." ”
When people are weak in the kidneys, they are prone to waist soreness, fear of cold, frequent urination and other symptoms.
In the process of strengthening the kidneys, supplementing the kidneys, strengthening the kidneys, and protecting the kidneys, we must pay attention to the warmth of the waist.
The waist and eyes of the back of the waist are scientifically called "kidney acupuncture points".

Put your thumb on the kidney Yu points on both sides, first press 9 times clockwise, and then press 9 times counterclockwise, this is 1 group, 2 groups each time, long-term persistence can better warm the kidney Yang.
- Cover your feet
The ancients said: "Hundred diseases start from the cold, and the cold is born from the feet." ”
The kidneys arise from the feet, and the fountain points in the heart of the feet are their main points.
The blood circulation of the lower limbs of the human body is worse than that of the upper body, and it is more susceptible to wind and cold.
Every day before going to bed, you can soak your feet with warm water and rub your feet vigorously.
It can relieve fatigue, strengthen the kidneys and strengthen the body, and delay aging.
It can also prevent the occurrence of colds, high blood pressure, coronary heart disease and other diseases.
Each time soaking feet should be 20 minutes, and hot water should be added at the right time to have an effect.
Cover for how long
As the folk proverb goes, "Leave the cotton clothes in February, and there will be pear blossom snow in March."
He also said, "After eating the Dragon Boat Dumplings, I sent the cotton clothes."
The increase or decrease of spring clothing has never been defined.
Depending on the weather changes, your physical fitness.
In general, a temperature of 15 °C is a critical value.
When it is below this temperature, you may wish to "cover" for two more days;
When the temperature continues to stabilize above 15 ° C, it is necessary to reduce clothing appropriately.
When the temperature difference between day and night is large, clothing should be added or subtracted in time.
For the health of you and your family, don't be afraid of trouble.
Especially in the recent period, the cold wave has just passed.
It takes a while for the temperature to rise, and the elderly and children should also cover for a few days, and the clothes should not be reduced too quickly.
How thick it is
Sun Simiao, the medicine king, once said: "Spring should not be thin, it makes people typhoid, cholera, food can not be consumed, headaches." ”
Spring is the season of yang growth, and you can't dress too tightly.
Tight clothing, obstructing the flow of qi and blood, it is easy to hold the yang qi, the body will be colder.
Therefore, it is best to wear loose and breathable clothing.
Not only is it warm, but the skin is not prone to dryness and itching.
The thickness of the clothes should still be based on personal comfort, preferably feeling warm and not sweating.
Ancient health practitioners said that spring clothing should be "thick and thin".
The jacket is slightly thinner, which is conducive to the promotion of lung qi;
The lower body is slightly thicker, which is conducive to the preservation of kidney qi.
Pants, socks, and shoes must be kept as warm as possible, do not change too quickly, take off too early.
"Covering" the head too much, the accumulation of yang qi in the body is too much, it is likely to turn into a hot evil attack, causing symptoms of fire, which is also harmful to health.
