Spring Begins solar term

Spring Begins Solar Term Health Guide

Spring Begins is the first solar term of the year, yang energy rises and life awakens.

🌱 The core features of Spring Begins

The Great Awakening
🌅 Yang Energy Ascends: Winter dormancy ends + Spring vitality emerges = “Nature’s Grand Revival”
🌿 Liver Season Begins: Wood element activates, liver qi rises and spreads throughout body
Body Alert Points
😤 Liver qi stagnation: irritability, mood swings, and frustration from blocked energy flow
🤧 Spring allergies emerge: pollen and wind-borne pathogens challenge immune system
😴 Spring fatigue: body exhausted from transition, needs adaptation time despite increasing energy

🍃 The Golden Rules of Traditional Chinese Medicine for Health Preservation

▶️ Diet Three Should-be and Three Taboos

Should Eat:
Spring greens and sprouts 🌱 (leeks, spinach, bean sprouts – support liver’s upward energy)
Sweet and mild foods 🍯 (dates, yams, honey – nourish spleen and harmonize liver)
Pungent herbs in moderation 🧅 (scallions, ginger – help yang qi rise and disperse)

Should Avoid:
Sour and astringent foods 🍋 (contract liver qi when it needs to spread freely)
Heavy greasy foods 🍔 (burden spleen and liver during activation phase)
Excessive spicy foods 🌶️ (overstimulate rising liver yang causing anger and headaches)

▶️ Key Points of Living
🌅 Wake up 6:30-7 AM: Practice “Winter Spring Transition” routine + Unblocking Meridians (check Coach Delphine’s program for techniques)
🚶 Morning outdoor walks: Expose yourself to rising sun and fresh air to harmonize with nature’s awakening
🌙 Sleep before 10 PM: Allow liver to detox and regenerate during 11 PM-3 AM optimal window
