Autumn is the season when everything is ripe and harvested, and the climate changes from hot to cold, which is a process in which the yang gradually closes and the yin gradually grows, and the metabolism of yin and yang in human body begins to transition from eliminating yang to increasing yin. Autumn health care should start from two aspects: spiritual feelings, diet and daily life.

First, the spirit of aftercare

1, autumn should be in the lungs, and the lungs are worried about their ambitions.

Autumn is a pleasant season, the air is crisp in autumn, but the climate gradually dries up, the sunshine time decreases and the temperature begins to drop; Dead leaves of grass and dead trees of flowers often cause a sense of desolation and admiration in some people's hearts, resulting in emotional changes such as melancholy and irritability, especially emotional people, especially sentimental "literati".

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that autumn belongs to "lung" and "lung is anxious for worry", which means that sadness and anxiety are easy to hurt the lung, especially in autumn, which is more likely to produce sadness and hurt the lung.

Especially for people with lung-qi deficiency, the body's tolerance to bad stimuli is reduced, so it is more likely to have a sad complex in autumn.

Step 2 stay optimistic

Autumn health care must first cultivate optimism. In ancient China, there was a custom of climbing mountains to enjoy the scenery on the Double Ninth Festival, which was also a method of emotional recuperation. By climbing high and overlooking, people are relaxed and happy, and bad emotions such as depression and melancholy can be eliminated.

Second, daily aftercare

1, early to bed and early to rise

"Su Wen Si Qi Diao Ling" says: "In autumn and March, get up early and go to bed early, and have fun with chickens". What do you mean? Simply put, the daily life in autumn should be adjusted according to the four seasons. How to adjust? Early to bed and early to rise, chickens crow. Why? This is because the yang in nature tends to converge in autumn, which is a process from yang to yin, and the yin grows and the yang disappears. Going to bed early conforms to Yang Qi's convergence, and getting up early makes the lungs stretch.

2. Clothing changes

In early autumn, the heat is not over, the cool wind is blowing gently, and the weather is changeable. Even in the same area, there will be a situation of "four seasons a day, ten miles without weather". Add clothes in time according to the weather changes. In late autumn, when the wind turns cold, we should pay attention to increasing clothes in time, especially for the frail elderly and children, and pay more attention to preventing colds.

Therefore, keeping in good health in autumn, all spiritual feelings, diet and daily life, and exercise are based on the principle of nurturing and receiving.
