Interpretation of steaming Yang Qi in May.

In May, the weather is hot and the sunshine is strong, which means that the sunshine is the strongest in a year.

The origin of the phrase "Yang Qi steaming in May is beautiful" is related to China's ancient theory of Yin-Yang and Five Elements. In the theory of Yin-Yang and Five Elements, May belongs to Yang, which is the most vigorous month of Yang. Steaming describes the climate characteristics of this month, that is, the weather is hot and the humidity is high, which makes people feel sultry. At the same time, Jiazi said that this month has special benefits for physical health and health preservation.

According to the theory of Yin-Yang and Five Elements, May belongs to fire, corresponding to the heart and blood vessels of the human body. Therefore, moderate exercise and exercise this month will help to consume excess yang fire in the body and achieve the purpose of balancing yin and yang and harmonizing qi and blood. At the same time, the hot weather in May can easily make people feel tired and sleepy. At this time, we should pay attention to maintaining adequate sleep and rest to avoid overwork and damage to the heart yang.

In terms of diet, you should eat some nourishing and calming foods in May, such as red dates, longan, lily and tremella. Avoid eating too much spicy food, such as pepper and ginger, so as not to aggravate yang fire in the body.
