寒冷的冬季，人们常常将门窗关得紧紧的，这种做法使得屋子内充满二氧化碳和废气，对人的健康十分不利。冬天，会讲究养生的人，一定会注意以下几点：
穿着暖和 自古就有“秋防燥、冬防寒”的说法，因为冬季寒冷，特别是北方寒风刺骨，如果不注意防寒，那么，“外寒侵入机体，经久不散，易伤人体的阳气，导致内寒产生，使人生病”。所以，进入冬季后，要把防寒作为养生的第一要务，不可硬撑。无论是在家还是外出都要注意穿着暖和。因此，要想平安地度过寒冬，必须重视保暖，而头、背、足则是保暖的重点。
头部
中医认为，“头是诸阳之会”。体内阳气最容易从头部走散掉，如同热水瓶不盖塞子一样，所以，冬季如不重视头部保暖，很容易引发感冒、头痛、鼻炎、牙痛、三叉神经痛等，甚至引发严重的脑血管疾病。因此，冬天选戴一顶合适的帽子是很必要的。
背部
祖国医学称“背为阳”。冬季里如背部保暖不好，则风寒极易从背部经络上的诸多穴位侵入人体，损伤阳气，使阴阳平衡受到破坏，人体免疫功能下降，抗病能力减弱，诱发许多疾病或使原有病情加重及旧病复发。因此，人们在冬季里加穿一件贴身的棉背心或毛背心以加强背部保暖，是必不可少的。
足部
俗语说“寒从脚下起”。现代医学认为，双脚远离心脏，血液供应不足，长时间下垂，血液循环不畅，皮下脂肪层薄，保温性能差，容易发冷。脚部一旦受凉，便通过神经的反射作用，引起上呼吸道粘膜的血管收缩，血流量减少，抗病能力下降，以致隐藏在鼻咽部的病毒、细菌乘机大量繁殖，引发人体感冒或使气管炎、哮喘、关节炎、痛经、腰腿痛等旧病复发。因此，冬季要注意保持鞋袜温暖干燥，并经常洗晒。平时多走动以促进脚部血液循环。另外，临睡前用热水烫脚后以手掌按摩脚心１０分钟，可起到养生保健的作用。

3 Body Parts Need Your Considerating Care in Winter
In frigid winter, people always keep their windows firmly closed. This does harm to human bodies, because it causes excessive carbon dioxide and waste gas and stay in the room. In winter, the following points are always adopted by the ones who take regimen seriously:
Wear enough to fight against the chillness-as an ancient chinese saying goes "Prevent dryness in fall and cold in winter. Because during winter season, temperature plummets to the rock bottom, in particular piercing wind from North. In this case, if be out of the consciousness of keeping body warm, as the explanation goes " External frigidity invades into body and remains in circulation, affects balance of Yang, triggers internal fridigity and leads to sickness as a result". Therefore, prevention of cold should be the primary task on regimen in winter season which means no physically fight against the chillness without wearing enough clothes. Remember to dress properly no matter you are indoors or outdoors. If having a strong desire to survive the freezing winter without getting sick, it comes to the point of 3 parts which require your highlighted attention to keep them warm-head,back and feet.
Head
"Head is the center which Yang accumulates" as in Chinese medicine theory. Internal Yang may exhale away in head, just like thermos bottle without a lid.
If head lacks of warmth in winter, it may just cause cold, headache,rhinitis,toothache,trigeminal neuralgia and so on, or even worse-acute blood vessel related dieseases. Thus, wearing a proper anti-cold hat is crucial in winter.
Back
In Chinese medicine, back stands for Yang. Once back does not deserve sufficient warmth, chillness breaks the fragile and invades internally through numerous acupoints on dorsal primary and collateral channels. In the end, it harms the Yang, damages the balance of Ying and Yang, decreases human immune function and anti-diesease function and triggers other sickness, or even deteriorates current sickness and causes a seizure. Hence, what vital to people is to put on a skintight cutton vest or wollen vest to make sure your back stay in warm.
Feet
As a saying tells "Feet experiences first-hand cold". Modern medicine suggests that it senses the chillness more easily due to long distance from heart, deficiency of blood supply, long period of hanging down, difficult blood circulation and thin subcutaneous fat with limited capacity of storing warmth. Once feet are chilly, through nerve relfex, it shrinks blood vessels the membrane of the upper respiratory tract, reduces blood flow, decreases anti-virus immune function, creates a beneficial enviornment for bacterias and hidden nasopharynx virus to reproduce. As a result cold or seizures of tracheitis, asthma, arthritis, dysmenorrhea and sore waist and legs will occur. Therefore, Keep it in mind that shoes and socks need to be warm and dry, and of course, clean. Taking walks may help to improve blood circulation. In addition, another keep-fit tip - dip feet into warm water and rub arch with hands for 10 minutes before bedtime.
