With the arrival of summer, the weather is getting hotter and hotter. Most people begin to feel sleepy, unable to wake up and lack energy. Although it seems not a big deal, it has affected our normal daily work and study. Many people drink coffee to refresh themselves but they don’t know that drinking coffee frequently is bad for the body. Here I will introduce to you several acupoints that can refresh the mind, I hope it can help you.

Fengchi Point Fengchi Point is located on the back of the neck, below the occipital bone, and is level with Fengfu Point (1 inch directly above the middle of the posterior hairline). This is an acupuncture point on the Gallbladder Meridian of Foot Shaoyang. Massaging it can not only refresh the mind, but also relieve eye fatigue. It is especially effective for people who work in front of a computer or at a desk for a long time. Keep your body upright, place your thumbs on the Fengchi points on both sides, tilt your head back, and press and rub the points with your thumbs in a circular motion for 1 minute. You will feel a noticeable soreness and swelling there. Repeat 5 times.

Baihui Point is the meeting point of hundreds of meridians and is the cause of hundreds of diseases, so Baihui Point can treat many diseases. Baihui acupoint is located on the human head, at the center of the top of the head. It can be reached by connecting the two ear corners to the midpoint of a line. This acupoint is where the three yang meridians of the hands and feet and the yang energy of the Governor Vessel meet. Massaging here can wake up the brain, calm the mind, and raise the yang energy. Method to refresh the mind: Press the acupoints with the thumbs or index fingers of both hands, apply force slowly until you feel a sore and swollen feeling, and continue for 30 seconds; at the same time, you can do gentle and gentle circular massage, repeat 6 times. This method can effectively eliminate the feeling of drowsiness at work and is suitable for all kinds of people.

The temple is located at the midpoint of the line connecting the tip of the eyebrow and the outer corner of the eye, and is in the depression about one horizontal finger width backwards. Massaging this area can not only refresh the mind but also relieve headaches. The acupoints near the knee joint, such as Zusanli, Yanglingquan, Ququan and Yingu, can provide motive force for the circulation of qi and blood in the internal organs throughout the body. Massaging these acupoints can make the mind clear; the fingertips of the middle fingers of both hands are the Zhongchong point in Chinese meridian theory. Rubbing this point when you feel sleepy can have the effect of refreshing the brain; the "Changqiang point" in the coccyx in the middle of the human buttocks is the starting point of the Du meridian, and qi and blood will be transported from here to the head. Tapping the Chengfu points on the coccyx and buttocks can stimulate the circulation of Qi and blood in the Du meridian and bladder meridian, thereby improving blood supply to the brain.

There are various ways to refresh the mind, among which the acupoint method is relatively safe and reliable. You can take refreshing tea with it on a daily basis to avoid drowsiness and lack of energy. In addition, developing good habits of going to bed early and getting up early will not only make you have a energetic day but also have a healthy body. The above are a few ways I have done to refresh the mind for everyone. I hope it will be helpful to you. I wish you good health.
