What do you mean by February and August?

It means that the weather turns from cold to hot in February, from hot to cold in August, and from hot to cold, which is changeable. Coupled with physical differences, people naturally wear different clothes.

Generally speaking, winter goes to spring, which is a transitional stage from cold to hot. Although the weather is getting warmer, the climate often changes, sometimes warm and sometimes cold. It is often sunny after the sun comes out, and it will be cold when it rains. Because people are used to wearing more clothes in winter, if they take off too much in spring, they will not adapt to climate change and get sick easily. Therefore, in the early spring, you should deliberately cover a little and slowly reduce your clothes.

Going to Qiu Lai in summer is a transitional stage from hot to cold. Although the weather is getting cold, there is a process of transformation. Some people wear a lot of clothes in autumn, and even put on cotton-padded clothes too early. This is not good, because putting on cotton-padded clothes too early will make the body unable to exercise cold air, reduce the cold-proof ability, and is not conducive to the adjustment of human functions. In this way, when the nose and trachea are attacked by cold air, the blood vessels inside can't resist and contract, which will reduce the blood flow and weaken the antibacterial ability and hide in the nose. Therefore, it should be frozen again in autumn, and clothes should be added slowly.

Indiscriminate dressing in February and August varies from person to person:

What does it mean to dress indiscriminately in February and August? Why do you wear clothes indiscriminately in February and August?

Casual dress season

There is an old saying in China, "Dressing in disorder in February and August", which means that in February and August of the lunar calendar, people's clothes and dressing are prone to "disorderly collocation", while in the solar calendar, these two periods are also the time when winter and spring change seasons and summer and autumn change seasons.

Among the "disorderly wearing" ethnic groups, some follow the body feeling, while others advocate "covering spring and freezing autumn". The latter emphasizes that people's physique will become stronger and stronger after experiencing "autumn freezing", but the expert's view is that "freezing in spring and autumn" will vary from person to person. Autumn freezing is to improve people's tolerance to the gradually cold environment, but if the individual's physique is weak, it is best not to freeze. The so-called "freezing in spring and freezing in autumn" means that through appropriate "freezing in autumn", the human body can slowly adapt to the gradually decreasing temperature and prepare for the coming winter. Just like subtle exercise, "autumn freezing" can improve people's physique invisibly. On the other hand, in the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, autumn is the season of nourishing yin. Wearing too much will encourage yang, which is not good for your health.

Autumn is also a period of high incidence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. For middle-aged and elderly people with this medical history, cold protection is particularly important. Experts said that it would be very dangerous for this group of people to try to "cover the spring and freeze the autumn". For example, although wearing slippers is fashionable and comfortable, the rhythm of peripheral circulation is disrupted, which is easy to cause symptoms such as elevated blood pressure. People with large temperature fluctuations and weak constitution should pay special attention to protecting the three key parts: head, hands and feet.

It is worth mentioning that even healthy people have the conditions to "cover the spring and freeze the autumn". In general, when the sunshine temperature is 15℃-20℃, people can reduce their clothes appropriately, but this principle is no longer applicable when it is really close to early winter. It is definitely not advisable to blindly "freeze in autumn".
