Do some "healthy things" before going to bed

What do you do in the hour before going to bed every day? Watch videos, check your Moments, or watch TV? You might as well make full use of this time and do some "health-preserving things" to achieve the purpose of relaxation and conditioning your body.

Combing your hair before going to bed. Ancient Chinese health experts advocated that "hair should be combed frequently". Horn combs, jade combs, and wooden combs are preferred. Combing your hair frequently can massage and stimulate the acupuncture points on the head, which has the effects of dredging meridians and regulating brain nerves. Combing your hair before going to bed has a good health-care effect on people with cervical spondylosis, neurasthenia, and insomnia.

Drink a glass of water before going to bed. Chinese medicine believes that water can nourish yin, and hot water can warm the internal organs and play a role in warming yang. The heat of water can dilate blood vessels, open pores, promote the dissipation of cold air on the body surface, promote body sweating, accelerate metabolism and excrete toxins. In addition, drinking hot water can relieve stomach pain, invigorate the spirit, promote bowel movements, and prevent colds. The water temperature should not be too hot.

Rub your legs before going to bed. Bend over or sit down, let your legs hang down, and gently pat your legs with both hands, repeatedly patting from top to bottom several times; then make fists with both hands and place them on your thighs and calves, rotating and rubbing dozens of times.
