【#24節氣－清明】是日清明！有無人去掃墓？
春暖花開，清明時節萬物生長，清潔而明淨，故稱「清明」。清明不只是一個傳統節日，還是一個節氣！與此同時，清明時節雨水亦較春分多，氣溫也逐漸回升。在春雨綿綿的日子裡，心情特別容易鬱悶，要懂得控制情緒，不要過分抑壓自己，最重要是找方法宣洩，大哭一場也不失為一個好辦法！不想哭，或可出外走走，做做運動，呼吸新鮮空氣，藉著排汗排走體內的濕氣，又可紓緩不快的情緒。飲食原則應祛濕、健脾胃和飲食清淡。
溫馨提示：
1. 每日一杯米水，有助健脾和排走濕氣，對抗春睏。
2. 隨身帶備一把雨傘傍身，以防因淋雨而生病。
3. 出門前記得看看天氣預告，以免雨水把心愛的一雙鞋毀掉。
