Five steps of yoga will help you get rid of spring sleepiness!

Spring really makes people feel uncomfortable. They often feel heavy and tired, have no appetite, and have no energy. This turns out to be a very uncomfortable "spring fatigue".

In addition to spring fatigue, what makes white-collar workers uncomfortable is shoulder and neck pain, because the weather is suddenly warm and cold, and the temperature is low, which can easily induce joint swelling, joint stiffness, and poor mobility. To get rid of spring fatigue and relieve shoulder and neck pain, we can no longer be lazy pigs. We insist on doing some yoga stretching movements every day. In this era, we like "spiritual beauties".

In spring, it is not easy to rely on sweating to detoxify drugs. The weather is still relatively cold and humid, and the body is prone to accumulate moisture. First, it causes skin slack, especially the face, eyes, etc., which may easily cause skin edema; Second, when moisture enters the human body through human breathing and other channels, it is easy to get wet and trap the spleen and stomach, causing the entire spleen and stomach to malfunction, and causing the person to lack qi. When dampness disturbs the clearing of the orifices, it will cause fatigue, fatigue, dizziness and drowsiness, so spring is particularly easy to feel sleepy.

In addition, many organs in the human body have the ability to dissolve toxins. The skin discharges some toxins and excess water through sweating; but spring is an awkward season. The weather is neither cold nor hot. Sweating is used to detoxify and eliminate dampness. There are fewer times. Various toxins in the body will make the skin rough, causing symptoms such as freckles, black spots, and rashes, damaging skin health and beautiful appearance.
