? I look at the Hinoeuma with the eyes of Oriental medicine

When I hear the word "Pingwu", I feel that it sounds like an old story.
There are various legends, such as the year of strong fire and the fierce temper.
However, if you look at it from the perspective of Oriental medicine,
Bingwu can be taken as a soft meaning of "a year when the fire is a little too intense".

? A year full of fire

Bingwu is both "Yang Fire" in the "Bing" of the Ten Trunks and "Wu" in the Twelve Zodiac Signs.
Since the fire overlaps in double, it is easy to gain momentum.
Fire is inherently an important existence that gives brightness and warmth.
But if you are too energetic, you may feel a little restless.
For example
　? I feel a bit nervous
　? Face is prone to hot flashes
　? Difficulty falling asleep
　? Feeling rushed
It is easy to feel such a feeling, which is a characteristic of strong fire.

? The power of "water" to gently wrap fire

When fire is strong, it is important to have the opposite nature of water.
In Oriental medicine, water corresponds to the "kidneys" and symbolizes tranquility and calmness.
When the fire crackles,
The presence of water gently snuggles up to you.
So in a year of fire like Bingwu,
Nourishing the kidneys (water) leads to the stability of the mind and body.

? In the year of Bingwu, a gentle regimen

● Take care of your kidneys with black ingredients
Black beans, black sesame seeds, kelp, hijiki, kikurage, etc.
Black is the color of the kidneys, which nurtures a quiet power deep in the body.
● A little food to calm hot flashes
Yams, lotus roots, pork, lily roots, and mushrooms.
It softens the momentum of the fire and deepens your breathing.
● Make time to relax
　　? Deep breathing
　　? Turn off the lights early at night
　　? Don't overheat
　　? Don't overpack your schedule
In the Year of Fire, just slowing down makes your heart feel lighter.

? Because it is a year of momentum, choose tranquility

Bingwu has long been said to be a "strong year".
But strength is not a bad thing, it's just that there is momentum.
The more momentum there is,
If you are aware of tranquility and looseness, you will be able to balance your mind and body.
In the year of fire, water curing.
Take a breather in the year of movement.
Such a way of spending time is also somewhat comfortable.
