How to prevent spring fatigue in spring health care

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that spring sleepiness is a natural physiological phenomenon. In spring, everything comes back to life, the days are bright and the temperature rises from below zero in winter to above zero. The higher temperature makes many people feel sleepy, which is what we commonly call spring sleepiness. In addition, the gradual lengthening of daylight hours, the shortening of day and night time, and the shortening of sleep time are also factors that lead to spring sleepiness. Below, the editor will teach you some tips to overcome spring fatigue and help you restore your energy and spirit.

First, use external sensory stimulation to prevent spring sleepiness

For those who often sit for a long time in front of the computer, play games, or read books, it is easy to become sleepy after a long time. At this time, we can divert our attention, look at the distance outside the window, the surrounding high-rise buildings, and the fresh flowers in the bedroom. Or we can listen to music with fast rhythm changes to stimulate our sleepy ears. Or if there are some delicious snacks around, it can also help to refresh the mind by exercising the upper and lower teeth. If you feel particularly sleepy, you can do some simple exercises on the spot to promote your body's metabolism. The blood supply to the whole body and brain will speed up circulation, thereby preventing spring sleepiness.

Second, use external exercise to stimulate behavior and prevent spring sleepiness

There are many acupuncture points on the shoulders of our human body. At the same time, the shoulders also bear the weight of the brain and take into account the balance. After a long time, our neck will feel stiff and numb, and it will be easier to feel sleepy if time goes on. The shoulder lifting exercise is suitable for people living in a small space. Keep the body straight, turn the head, straighten the chest, shake and swing to exercise our neck and shoulders at the same time. Do it for a while every morning and evening to relieve numbness in the neck and shoulders. The heel-lifting exercise is mainly aimed at people with cold hands and feet, who have low levels of exercise and poor blood circulation, which causes them to feel listless and sleepy. Moreover, most of our body muscles are concentrated in the lower body, so the heel lifting exercise can also exercise the leg muscles of the feet. The specific steps are as follows: sit up straight, with legs and feet at 90 degrees and close together and vertical, raise the heels off the ground according to the beat, hold for a while, and then slowly press the soles of the feet with your toes as a set. Doing a few sets every day during the time when you are prone to drowsiness can easily relieve drowsiness. Kegel exercises are also a good choice. Kegel exercises are not restricted by time or place.

According to historical records, as early as the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, anus-lifting exercises were popular among the people to drive away spring sleepiness. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the anus in the human body is the gathering place of meridians, which can regulate the increase of yang energy in the whole body and speed up the circulation of venous blood. The anus lifting exercise only requires us to contract the anus with one inhalation and one exhalation, and one lifting and one relaxing as a set. Do it every day and spring fatigue will be far away!
