Summer is the season when the human body's yang energy is most abundant, and the human body is in a state of "yang abundant outside and cold hidden inside" at this time; as the temperature rises, the skin relaxes, the pores open, and the human body's yang energy is released. For people with weak and cold constitution, the already insufficient Yang energy in the body will be released excessively in the hot summer, which will make the internal organs weak and cold and cause illness. When we open the refrigerator, a gust of cold air hits us. The food inside slows down its "aging" speed under the protection of the cold air. Have you ever thought about what would happen if there was also a "refrigerator" in the human body, and the life activities of various tissues and organs were slowed down by the "cold air"? Nowadays, many people are mobile "refrigerators", which means they have a cold constitution. Most of the illnesses people have nowadays are caused by a cold constitution. Compared with the past, due to changes in living environment and eating habits, there are more and more people with a cold constitution. What exactly causes your constitution to be cold? Let's take a look at those little habits that make you love and hate them! 1. Use air conditioning It is hot in the summer, and the human body should sweat more in accordance with nature. However, now we stay in air-conditioned rooms for a long time to work and sleep, which prevents sweat from being discharged. Instead, it is forced to sweat due to the cold air in the environment, which turns into fire. How can this not cause internal injuries? The cold air enters the body through the pores, and over time it will damage the body's yang energy, thereby making the body tend to be cold. 2. Love cold drinks It seems natural to drink cold things in summer, but have you ever considered how your spleen and stomach feel? They are protesting all the time. The spleen and stomach like warm food, which can help it digest and absorb nutrients better. Once cold food is eaten, the warm fire will be extinguished immediately. If this continues for a long time, it will protest against you with "stomach cold, stomach pain, stomach bloating, and stomach ulcer"! 3. Excessive cooling Most modern people have excessive internal heat. Once they show any signs of getting hot, they will desperately take heat-clearing medicines and drink herbal tea like boiled water. Many people don’t know that taking cold and cooling foods or medicines to reduce heat can easily make the cold in the body worse; it can damage the spleen and stomach, aggravate the cold and dampness in your body, damage the yang energy, and cause symptoms of cold below and heat above. Women, in particular, should reduce their intake of cold fruits and vegetables and various unnecessary medicines. After reading the above reasons, you know where your coldness comes from. Knowing it is useless, you have to find a way to solve it! In addition to everyone's determination to improve their living and eating habits, I will teach you 3 tricks to remove the big freezer in your body and keep you away from the harm of a cold constitution. Three steps to remove the big freezer in your body 1. Moxibustion Mugwort is a purely yang substance that can replenish original yang, dispel cold and blood stasis, dredge meridians, and replenish qi and blood. As a natural therapy, moxibustion is gentle and harmless to the body. With its warming nature, it can expel the coldness from the human body and quickly restore the balance of yin and yang in the body. It is natural that it can deal with various diseases caused by coldness. Acupoints for moxibustion: Zusanli, Guanyuan, Xuehai, Sanyinjiao. Moxibustion method: Use moxa sticks to apply moxibustion to each acupoint for 10-20 minutes. 2. Foot bath It is best to soak your feet before going to bed at night. No matter it is water boiled with mugwort, ginger water, pepper water, or just hot water, it will all have the effect of warming the meridians and replenishing kidney energy! Especially for moxibustion enthusiasts, long-term moxibustion will also cause internal fire to rise, and soaking your feet will lead the fire downward. 3. Drink mugwort tea Summer is here, and now is the best time to drink mugwort tea! Because the main functions of mugwort tea are to remove cold and dampness, stabilize the fetus, and resist allergies. Because after a winter and a spring, more disease will accumulate in the body. The most important thing is that in the hot summer, the pores of the human body are open, the yang energy in the body is empty, and a large amount of cold and dampness accumulates. Drinking a cup of mugwort tea at this time can not only replenish the body's yang deficiency to warm the middle, but also help the yang energy disperse to expel the cold. It is suitable for people with heavy cold and dampness in the lower abdomen, women with cold uterus (excessive and thin leucorrhea, dysmenorrhea), men with cold kidneys, and people with weak stomach and intestines and chronic diarrhea. It can be drunk frequently. |
