During the cold winter, we usually catch a cold, have a fever or a cough. There are some common and great ways that you can follow to keep yourself away from these problems.

Never leave your house without warm clothes. It might be sunny in the morning or daytime but it is getting colder as the sun sets. So make sure you have a sweater or a coat for the colder night.

Don’t walk without shoes in your house. We have a habit of staying bare feet at home. The cold passes from feet to head in no time and that is why we need to wear shoes to stay away from the cold.

Drinking ginger (姜) tea helps your body get warm during the colder days. Drinking green tea keeps your body healthy and solves many health problems. Green tea is even better for those who want to get thinner.

Still if you catch a cold, do not let the cold build up in your body. It’s better to take quick action against the cold through proper exercise. Do some warm-up exercise in the morning or rub (摩擦) your hands quickly. Jogging (慢跑) or yoga also helps your body become warm to stay away from the cold and fever.

Follow these simple ways, and you’ll enjoy the winter greatly.
