The seven day long holiday is finally coming.
How will you choose to spend it? Whether staying at home or going out to play, the most important thing is to keep a healthy and happy body.
In the twinkling of an eye, the autumnal equinox has passed, and the symptoms of autumn dryness, autumn fatigue, and autumn depression also remind us that it is time to arrange health preservation in autumn.
Harvest in autumn and store in winter.
Autumn and winter are the best time for “storage” and health preservation in autumn focuses on “harvest”.
“Harvest” means “harvest”.
According to Ayurveda theory, when autumn comes, we have accumulated a lot of heat from summer in our body tissues, which belongs to the fiery pita.
After a summer’s exercise, the body is in the best condition.
At this time, excessive exercise should be avoided to reduce human consumption.
Ayurveda believed that everything in nature, including ourselves, was controlled by three primary elements, namely vata, pita and kapha.
Vata energy is composed of wind element and empty element.
it dominates creation and change, and tends to be changeable.
Pitta energy is affected by fire element and water element, and this energy is mainly used for transformation, achievement and metabolism.
Kapha energy is related to soil element and water element, and its characteristics are steadfastness, stability and growth.
On the other hand, the autumn harvest of all things makes the lungs vigorous and Qi dry, and “harvest” also means “harvest”.
With the leaves drying up and the autumn wind rising, vata begins to take the advantage, that is, the energy controlled by the wind element, which is characterized by change, instability and restlessness.
Therefore, in order to maintain health in autumn, we need to put away our anxiety and dryness, so that we can better maintain our physical state.
Therefore, the “harvest” of autumn health preservation should start from two aspects.
1、 Reasonably match the diet with foods that help heat and dry, such as peppers, prickly peppers, durian, mutton and other spicy and hot foods, which will aggravate the dryness in the body.
On the contrary, eat more foods that moisten the lungs and replenish water.
Sydney, cucumber and tomato contain a lot of water; Orange fruits and vegetables such as carrots, mangoes and colored peppers can also help alleviate the problem of autumn dryness after ingestion; At the same time, eating more soup porridge containing coarse grains, oats, barley, millet, etc.
can also help the body to replenish water.
2、 Attention should be paid to the fact that the human body is in the stage of convergence and internal maintenance in the autumn.
A certain amount of exercise should be maintained to prevent excessive sweating and excessive body loss.
If the exercise intensity is too high, muscle and joint injuries may occur, or headache, dizziness, chest tightness, palpitations and other symptoms may occur.
Yoga, with its character of cultivating body and mind, is very suitable for taking it as a health preserving exercise in autumn.
So as a yogi, how can I do “harvest” health preservation in autumn through yoga? It brings you a group of yoga sequences to relieve anxiety, which can help us prevent dryness and depression, and arrange quickly~downward dog posture to strengthen the spine forward flexion and extension, double angle backhand stick style, upward bow style, hero sitting shoulder handstand, plow style bridge style, shoulder handstand, and corpse spreading posture Note: you can enter forward bending from Mountain Pose, then enter downward dog pose, and then return to forward bending, repeat several times before doing back bending posture.
In this way, when you practice supported poses, you will feel calmer and more ready to receive their healing effects.
I hope that all Jias can get healthy and cured through yoga in this autumn.
