Do people tend to feel sleepy in autumn?

We often say that we feel sleepy in spring because the temperature in spring is not very high and the human body does not exercise too much. It is easy to feel sleepy if you stay in a small place for a long time. Relatively speaking, the temperature in autumn is very pleasant, which is very suitable for going out. Many people go hiking in autumn to exercise. But now some people feel that they have no interest in anything in autumn, and feel low in spirits and very sleepy every day. Is this normal?

In summer, people sweat a lot, which causes water and salt metabolism disorders, weakened gastrointestinal function, and increased burden on the cardiovascular system. After entering autumn, the human body enters a periodic rest phase. Water and salt metabolism begins to restore balance, the burden on the cardiovascular system is relieved, and the digestive system functions gradually return to normal. The human body will naturally produce a physiological reaction of autumn sleepiness. At the same time, "autumn fatigue" is also related to work stress and long-term fatigue.

The feeling of drowsiness is actually caused by brain hypoxia. Overloading in the morning will cause fatigue and hypoxia of brain cells, which will manifest as drowsiness and low efficiency. It is a warning that your physical fitness is deteriorating and your resistance is decreasing. The "autumn fatigue" phenomenon is most obvious among young office workers and students.

Is there any good way to keep away from autumn sleepiness and be a real autumn tiger with full energy?

Drink plenty of water

When we feel thirsty, it means that the body has lost a lot of fluid. As the fluid level in the body decreases, our physical strength will also decrease. This is fatigue caused by low blood pressure due to lack of water. Therefore, in autumn, you should generally drink 1500~2000ml of water a day. If you pay attention to drinking enough water, you can avoid fatigue caused by low blood pressure.

Make the surrounding colorful

If we add some warm-colored decorations, such as yellow, orange, and especially bright-colored decorations, to our daily working and resting environment, these bright colors can make our nerves excited. This is the impact of visual stimulation on the nervous system.

Drink Codonopsis tea regularly

People who work hard and are thin are prone to fatigue and repeated colds in early autumn. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that this is caused by qi deficiency. Due to weak lung qi or deficiency of lung and spleen qi, the body's ability to resist external invasion is weakened, and the spirit is also insufficient. Drinking some Codonopsis tea regularly, combined with some Astragalus, can effectively overcome symptoms of fatigue.

Stretch and comb your hair

When we stretch, the chest organs exert a certain amount of pressure on the heart and lungs, which can make the heart move more and thus deliver more oxygen to various parts of the body.

Combing your hair can also relieve body stress. Rub your hands on your face, or use your fingers to comb your hair like a comb. This can promote blood circulation in the head and relax your mind.
