Li Xia and the Transition into Summer

As spring fades away and the days grow longer, nature undergoes a remarkable transformation, signaling the arrival of summer. In the traditional Chinese calendar, this is marked by the first solar term known as Li Xia and it symbolizes the official commencement of summer.

Li Xia typically begins around May 5th each year, as the sun’s celestial longitude reaches 45 degrees. It is a time when the Earth absorbs more solar energy, warming the land and allowing plants to flourish. During this transitioning time, we should focus not only on increasing our sun protection but as well as the following:

Attention 1
Paying close attention to dehydration

Despite not yet experiencing the scorching heat, the May sun is already unleashing waves of intense heat. A glass of ice-cold water would be most welcome to prevent excessive perspiration for a day! During hot weather, people tend to sweat profusely and require more water, often feeling parched and in need of hydration. It is essential to replenish fluids promptly to avoid dehydration.1

Attention 2
Checking in with our emotions

Excessive heat can trigger a range of unwarranted behaviors, such as increased irritability, conflicts, arguments, and even public outbursts. This is attributed to the discomfort caused by high temperatures, which can lead to feelings of irritability and restlessness. In such situations, it is crucial to maintain adequate hydration levels by consuming more water, as this can play a pivotal role in stabilizing one’s emotional state. 2

Attention 3
Avoiding fatigue

The phenomenon of fatigue and the inclination to take summer naps can leave one with a sense of depletion. Persistent feelings of drowsiness, lethargy, and an inability to shake off the weariness can pervade one’s daily experience. While weather and seasonal factors contribute to these sensations, sudden bouts of fatigue, anxiety, irritability, or difficulties concentrating may actually indicate insufficient hydration within the body. In such instances, consuming a glass of fresh water can serve as a revitalizing elixir, reinvigorating both mind and body.3

1. Do you worry about safe drinking water during the rising temperatures?

In the face of scorching temperatures and hot weather, individuals frequently encounter challenges regarding their water drinking habits. Be aware that the residual chlorine present in tap water, while necessary for disinfection, emits a pungent odor and potentially poses a hazard to human health.4 Additionally, unsanitary pipelines may lead to secondary pollution during the water supply process, resulting in the accumulation of suspended particles, sediment, rust, and other harmful substances. In certain cases, even boiling the water may not fully eliminate toxic elements, such as heavy metals. 5
