What to do about insomnia during seasonal changes
During the transition from summer to autumn, people often experience insomnia. Once insomnia sets in, it can lead to listlessness and poor appetite, which are actually symptoms of sub-health. So, how can people摆脱 the trouble of insomnia?
1. Regulate your breathing with deep breaths. When breathing, concentrate the Qi in the Dantian area, which is the lower abdomen. Then, exhale. Inhale through your nose, mentally counting to 4. Hold your breath for a count of 7. Then exhale through your mouth, mentally counting to 8 to finish exhaling. You can do this every night before bed to provide oxygen to the brain by regulating your breathing.
2. Close your eyes to rest and massage acupoints. Find a quiet place, close your eyes to rest for 3-5 minutes, and you can配合 with soothing light music, such as classical music featuring violin or piano. Use the fingertips of your two thumbs to firmly massage the Fengchi acupoint with moderate force and speed, 10 times clockwise and 10 times counterclockwise. Finally, massage the Taiyang acupoint in the same manner, 10 times clockwise and 10 times counterclockwise.
