"On a sunny day, the warm wind produces wheat, and the green shade and grass are better than flowers", the May Day holiday has come to an end, and it has also ushered in the first solar term of summer, the beginning of summer. In ancient times, the beginning of summer was known as the "end of spring", representing farewell to spring and welcoming early summer. According to the law of growth in nature, after entering the beginning of summer, it is the season when all things flourish and grow, and the metabolism in the human body will also become faster. Compared with spring, you should make some changes in your living habits after summer, so that you will be more comfortable throughout the summer. In this regard, the elders in the family will repeatedly advise every year when the beginning of summer is approaching: 1 do not hurry, 2 do not sit, 3 do not wash, 4 do not blow, and the summer will go smoothly.
Below, let's take a look at what the solar terms of the beginning of summer are paying attention to, raising them with the right time, and spending the summer full of energy.
1Non-urgent
Emergency landing floor
After entering the summer, the sun comes out relatively early, and some middle-aged and elderly people do not sleep as well as when they are young, and they may have just woken up at dawn. I want to remind everyone that when you just get up, don't rush to get out of bed, otherwise your brain is not fully awake at this time, your limbs are not sharp, and it is easy to fall when you get out of bed in a hurry.
The correct way is to wake up, first keep lying in a lying position on the bed for a while, move your hands and feet slightly, you can also stretch your waist, about 5 minutes, at this time you have fully awakened, your limbs are also moving, you can slowly get up, change your clothes, and start a new day.
2. Do not sit
Do not sit on the threshold
According to the relevant records in the "Taihu County Chronicle", "(Beginning of summer) does not sit on the threshold, does not invade during the day, and is said to be tired and sick in summer." The meaning of this sentence is that Lixia should not sit on the threshold, otherwise it will be easy to get tired, and at the same time, do not rest excessively, otherwise it will cause discomfort due to irregular work and rest.
Around the beginning of summer, the rain increases, and thundershowers come from time to time, which will wet the threshold, causing moisture. If you are still sitting on a damp threshold, moisture may enter your body and put a burden on your body. It is recommended that you bring a small bench with you when you go out, and you can sit down at any time when you are tired, so as not to have to sit on the threshold.
3. Do not wash
Do not wash your hair cold
The beginning of summer is the beginning of summer, and the weather will get hotter and hotter. Especially in many areas in the south of the mainland, before and after the beginning of summer, I have already felt the heat of dog days in advance, and when I come back from a trip, I am sweating profusely in an instant, and even my hair is wet. I would like to remind everyone to wash your hair diligently and maintain personal hygiene in the summer, but pay attention to the way you wash your hair.
The main thing is that you can't wash your hair with cold water. If you also wash your hair with cold water, one cold and one hot, it is easy to catch a cold, and it will also aggravate the accumulation of cold in the body. It is recommended that you use warm water when washing your hair, and dry your hair in time after washing to avoid catching a cold.
4 Fubuki
No direct air conditioning
In the summer, the frequency of air conditioning is also higher than usual, especially in the hot and humid weather, properly blowing the air conditioner can help cool down. But I want to remind everyone that try not to blow the air conditioner directly, that is, the whole person is facing the air conditioner and let the cold wind blow directly on you.
As we age, our physique weakens, and if we are left to the cold wind, it may cause various soreness and discomfort. It is recommended that you bring a blanket to protect your shoulders, neck, and back from the cold. At the same time, the temperature of the indoor air conditioner should not be lower than 26°C, and attention should be paid to opening the windows regularly for ventilation to keep the air flowing.
When the beginning of summer arrives, keep in mind: don't rush to get out of bed, don't sit on the threshold, don't wash your hair with cold water, don't blow the air conditioner directly, adjust your living habits according to the season, I believe everyone will gain a healthy body and a good mental state.
Finally, I wish you all good luck and peace in the summer!
