What can’t you do on the day of Great Cold?

1. Avoid cold radiation
During the Great Cold season, you should prevent the harm of cold radiation to your body. Specific measures are to stay away from overly cold walls and other objects, and stay at least 50 cm away from the wall when sleeping. If the temperature difference between the wall and the indoor temperature exceeds 5°C, the wall will often appear damp and even have small water droplets. At this time, you can place wooden boards or foam plastics in front of the wall to block and reduce negative radiation, thereby protecting the body from damage by negative radiation.
2. Avoid indoor ventilation
The weather is cold during the Great Cold, but the room needs to be ventilated in the morning and evening to prevent bacteria and ice from entering. For indoor heating, pour some water on the floor or put some wet towels to maintain the indoor humidity. The indoor temperature should be maintained at 15-20℃, not too high or too low; reduce the number of times you go to public places.
3. Don’t exercise too much
During the Great Cold season, you should avoid excessive exercise and sweating to prevent your Yang Qi from being lost with sweat and being damaged. Exercise should be done in a sunny place in a square. You can choose sports such as brisk walking, jogging, square dancing, etc. according to your preferences. The intensity of exercise should be determined according to your physical condition. It is best to sweat slightly. It is best to stop exercising on foggy or snowy days.
