الخطة لمدة عام تبدأ في الربيع. كيف ينبغي للمرء أن يحافظ على صحته في أوائل الربيع؟? الأكل المستمر خلال فترة رأس السنة يشكل عبئاً كبيراً على الكبد والمعدة. لذلك, بعد عيد الربيع, “حماية الكبد وتغذية المعدة” مهم بشكل خاص! Traditional Chinese medicine states that the “Liver Meridian is in Command” in spring. At the beginning of spring, why not start from all aspects of clothing, طعام, housing, and transportation, and quickly nourish the body and mind, and cleanse the liver!
The fundamental principle of health maintenance in early spring is to promote the rise of Yang energy. However, as the weather is still transitioning from cold to warm, one should not rashly reduce clothing. There are many considerations in terms of clothing, طعام, housing, and transportation:
Clothing: In early spring, the Yang energy can only be referred to as “Lesser Yang”. To protect this minimal Yang energy, keeping warm is the priority, which is also known as “Bundling up in Spring”.
→ In early spring, avoid reducing clothing rashly.
ينام: The period from 11 PM to 3 AM, which corresponds to the hours of Zi and Chou in Chinese timekeeping, is the best time for liver cell repair. خلال هذا الوقت, the liver operates at high efficiency. Once the liver is well-restored, it naturally promotes the rise of Yang energy.
→ Try to avoid staying up late and aim to be asleep before 11 PM.
يمارس: Movement can raise Yang energy. Engaging in appropriate outdoor activities such as jogging or walking every morning can effectively promote the rise of Yang energy.
→ Be mindful to avoid excessive sweating. Moderate exercise is beneficial for both the body and mind.

In terms of dietary habits, two main principles should be followed: dispersing through pungency and warming supplementation. ال “pungent” principle can promote the rise of Yang energy, and foods like coriander and leeks are excellent seasonal vegetables for spring. “Warming supplementation” involves consuming more sweet-tasting foods, such as dates and Chinese yam.
