What is the importance of Jingzhe? During the Jingzhe season, people focus on prevention rather than supplementation.

The Jingzhe season of 2017 is approaching and the temperature begins to rise slowly. So, what are the etiquette and taboos regarding the Jingzhe solar term? Let’s take a look together.

What is the significance of Jingzhe

Clothing

The weather turns warmer during the Jingzhe season, but the temperature difference between day and night is very large. In addition, there are many "late spring cold" phenomena before and after the Jingzhe season. Especially on rainy days, limbs exposed to the outside are prone to local numbness, soreness and other symptoms, which can cause arthritis over time. Therefore, you must pay attention to keeping warm and focus on "covering".

Food

Jingzhe is the only one among the 24 solar terms that emphasizes "prevention" rather than "replenishment". Around the Jingzhe season, the weather gradually becomes warmer. As for diet, it should be light and mild, and it should follow the nature of the liver, benefit the spleen, and keep the five internal organs in harmony. On the day of Jingzhe, people pay attention to eating pears, which are believed to improve the spleen and strengthen the body to resist the invasion of bacteria. In terms of daily diet and health care, it is recommended to eat more light foods that are high in plant protein and rich in vitamins. For example: spring bamboo shoots, spinach, bitter gourd, yam, lotus seeds, white fungus, etc.

Life

"When spring thunder sounds, all things grow." All things come back to life in spring. After the Waking of Insects, people often feel tired, weak, drowsy and wake up late in the morning. This is what people often call "spring sleepiness." However, we should follow the natural law of the rising of spring sun, make ourselves happy, strengthen our physical fitness, go to bed early and get up early.
