On November 7th of this year, we officially entered the solar term of Beginning of Winter, marking the beginning of winter. Although the frozen weather in Canada has already begun for a while, I still want to share some tips for staying healthy after the Beginning of Winter with everyone.
What is the Beginning of Winter in the 24 solar terms?
The Beginning of Winter is the 19th solar term of the 24 solar terms, marking the official start of winter and the time when everything starts to be collected. At this time, the autumn crops have been harvested and the animals will start to prepare for hibernation. Therefore, it is time for us to nourish our kidneys and Yang energy, and prepare our bodies to stay healthy throughout the winter.
Suitable things to do after the Beginning of Winter:
1. Go to bed early and get up late, and get up with the help of sunlight to keep you energetic.
2. Get plenty of sunlight to absorb Yang energy and stay energetic.
3. Soak your feet in warm water before bed to keep warm and promote blood circulation.
4. Wear enough warm clothes before going out.
5. Eat nourishing foods such as chestnuts, black beans, and walnuts.
Things to avoid after the Beginning of Winter:
1. Avoid excessive and strenuous exercise, sweating too much, and depleting your energy.
2. Avoid staying up late and prioritize getting enough sleep.
3. Avoid eating raw, cold, and cooling foods to avoid being invaded by the cold.
Recommended soups after the Beginning of Winter:
1. Dried Agrocybe Aegerita Mushroom Soup Packet to replenish Qi, nourish the spleen and kidneys, nourish blood and calm the mind, and delay aging.
2. Dried Angelica Sinensis Soup Packet to replenish Qi and blood, enhance immunity, regulate the spleen and stomach, and improve mental health.
