Sudden changes in weather conditions can throw your immune system in a downward tailspin…that’s why it’s a great time to employ Chinese Medicine to help you ward off any invasions on the Wei Chi ( protective chi).  You can do it with herbal medicine or energetic medicine.  My prefer method is always energy medicine first since the body really knows how to heal itself.  If  you measure three fingers from the crease of your wrist, where the third finger falls is a point called Pericardium 6

Pericardium 6

on the palm side of the forearm and on the opposite side is Triple Warmer 5.

Triple Warmer 5

Just hold those two points together  by placing your index finger of your opposite hand on Triple Warmer 5  and the thumb on Pericardium 6 and breathe about thirty six breaths.  This helps to regulate your body’s rhythmical cycles so that you can adjust to the seasonal climatic changes.  They are the two master points for what we call the Wei Mei (Regulator for the English translation) Channel.  The points are bilateral so you can do the other side (left or right) as well.

The Regulating Channel nourishes the immune system, thus governing the body’s resistance to colds and flus.  Good points to hold before the immune system is compromised!  Try it and let me know how it goes.
