At 23: 44 on August 22, 2020, the summer with coolness is finally coming.
Summer, summer. . . As a serious autumn solar term, it is often mistaken for a summer solar term because of the word "summer"
Because "summer" is always associated with summer.
In fact, "Chu" has a meaning of stopping.
The arrival of the summer heat means that we will finally say goodbye to the summer heat.
As usual, let's talk about three times in summer.
The first eagle is a sacrificial bird.
The ancients thought that although the eagle was fierce, it was a very spiritual bird, and the eagle would be the first to feel the chill of autumn and start hunting.
It is said that before eating, it will display its prey in the same way that humans sacrifice ancestors and heaven and earth.
Waiting for heaven and earth to begin.
What is the beginning of heaven and earth?
See when the leaves grow and fall, and you will know.
Why do leaves grow in spring?
Because the sun be the spirit from underground germinal, spring.
Why do leaves turn yellow and fall to the ground in autumn?
Because the sun's spirit began to sink. . . Fall into the ground
Yang spirit can fall, relying on the golden spirit and the chilling spirit of autumn spirit.
The ancients often said: there are four seasons in the sky, and the king has four policies. If four policies are four seasons, the general class is also the same.
Four seasons-spring, summer, autumn and winter
Four policies-celebration, reward, punishment and punishment
The so-called "asking after the autumn" is nothing more than the spirit of chilling and killing in line with the weather.
San Hou he nai Deng
People often say that they are busy cutting grain in the summer for ten days.
All kinds of rice, millet and wheat are ripe.
The eagle began to hunt food.
The chill of heaven and earth is getting stronger.
The leaves began to turn yellow and the sun's spirit began to sink.
The rice is getting heavy.
Summer is really autumn.
Do you guys feel it?
Although it is still hot at noon.
The temperature difference between day and night began to increase.
But in the wind blowing at night
Finally there is a hint of coolness.
So, how to maintain health in the summer?
The following three rules are suitable for adults and children, old and young. You are welcome to take them.
First, don't worry about putting on autumn fat after the summer heat
After the summer vacation in previous years, my clinic will be busier, and there are many children who have accumulated food.
After the summer heat, the summer heat begins to subside, and adults and children will have better appetites than before-they want to eat, but at the same time, because of the bitter summer ahead, their spleen and stomach are still weak.
While the spleen and stomach are still weak, the appetite is a little open.
Therefore, children are more likely to accumulate food after the summer heat.
Can you blindly stick autumn fat at this time?
It is important to want to eat, but it is more important to be able to eat.
Some children have a fever because they eat too much food after the weather is cool, and as a result, they are sick, coughing and catching a cold for an autumn.
At this time, it is better to eat some foods that clear heat, promote diuresis and strengthen the spleen, which can regulate the spleen and stomach to expel the evil of damp heat in the body, and at the same time promote the recovery of the spleen and stomach to prepare for winter.
Second, be careful to be warm and dry, nourish yin and moisten the lungs first
The temperature in Shanghai had fallen below 25 degrees in the summer of the year before last, but what about this year?
It is said that it will be the hottest day in August in history.
Although it is not a summer day, I sweat and lose water in the hot noon. . . Warm dryness sometimes hurts body fluids and lungs more than cold dryness, so many people will have symptoms of dry eyes, dry nose, dry throat, dry mouth, dry skin, dry hair and dry stool after summer heat.
At this time, I suggest you use lily, lotus seeds, coix seed, Glehnia littoralis and Polygonatum odoratum to stew the soup. If there is no meat, you can directly boil water with autumn pear and radish.
Chinese medicine believes that radish can eliminate stagnation (if you eat too much) and eliminate phlegm (if you eat too much fish, it will produce phlegm).
It can also help digestion (so eating radish can fart)
Our autumn pear cream contains Polygonatum odoratum, lily and radish. One helps digestion, the other clears away heat and strengthens the spleen, and the third nourishes the lungs and moistens dryness.
After the summer heat, if you want to stick on the autumn fat, you should make a detour to barbecue the leg of lamb, and try Yuzhu Lotus Root Soup, Yam Wax gourd ribs soup and the like, which will nourish yin and be much more moist.
Third, beware of allergic diseases after the summer heat
The autumn wind swept away the leaves, and in the second half of the year, Yangming was dry and golden in the spring, and the autumn wind was chilly.
Especially after the summer heat, the temperature difference between morning and evening widens, if the spleen and stomach are weak, the defensive qi is insufficient and the lung qi is weak. . . It can induce allergic rhinitis, cough, asthma and urticaria.
That is to say, the immunity of western medicine is weak, and it is easy to be attacked by wind evil, which leads to the recurrence of allergic diseases.
Want to prevent?
One is the law of eating and living, and the other is to strengthen the spleen, produce gold locally, and enhance the lung function. Remember that the lungs are moist and better for the lungs.
Finally, I want to remind everyone that from the perspective of the five elements, autumn should be in the lungs and correspond to sadness.
After the summer heat, the leaves turn yellow, and the autumn wind gradually rises, and there will be a scene of cold in heaven and earth. Especially in the year of Gengzi this year, Geng is a strong gold, and people are prone to negative emotions.
All kinds of countervailing conflicts will exist.
The second half of this year will be really harder.
Sometimes you have to have it in your life.
Don't insist on it all the time in life
I hope everyone can adjust their mentality in time, pay attention to convergence, calm down and be calm. This is the best way to nourish the lungs and preserve health.
