Residents of cities, and even more so industrial ones, are not by hearsay familiar with the problem of reduced immunity. Every year, up to 30 million Russians suffer from various diseases, from acute respiratory infections to asthma. Children especially suffer from frequent and persistent colds. So any parent sooner or later decides: it’s time to improve immunity and temper the child. And then he is faced with a problem: how to do it?
Everyday experience suggests that you need to start hardening in the summer so that health procedures do not turn into another cold. Doctors say: you need to temper the child gradually and be sure when the baby is healthy. And the founder of the “School of tempering” Valery Neretin offers a technique that breaks these stereotypes and … really works! The technique was developed back in 1983 by B.S.Tolkachev and was approved by the USSR Ministry of Health.
“Education, recovery, healing – it was in this sequence that my acquaintance with Tolkachev’s method took place. Unfortunately, the reason for studying it was tragic – medicine could not save my six-month-old son from pneumonia. Subsequently, I proved the effectiveness of tempering not only by personal example, but also by the example of my children and grandchildren. Today I teach hardening, exercise therapy, massage in 8-10 hours. The main thing is to believe, not be afraid and not be lazy! My experience of medical hardening is over 30 years. Babies seven days old and 90-year-old veterans passed through my hands. “
Valery Neretin is sure that hardening should be started in winter: then the water is colder, and the air is cleaner.
“The Tibetan monks had such a reception: in the morning and in the evening they walked 1068 steps along a mountain stream. Here you will find hardening, foot massage, and physical activity. You can adapt this recipe for a city dweller. Every morning and evening, perform the necessary hygiene procedures while standing in a “pool” of ice water. The procedures include: rinsing, drinking, washing with cold water and at the same time a light massage of the palms, ears, nose, and soles. There are hundreds of biologically active points on our feet. Such an effect on them will have a beneficial effect on the state of the body as a whole. You can play with the child, for example, inviting him to growl like a lion, sticking out his tongue as much as possible.
The main concern of all mothers and grandmothers is that the child does not freeze. Therefore, very often kids on the street resemble “cabbage”. Meanwhile, a child is much less likely to freeze than an adult: after all, children move much more actively.
“The way Russian mothers wrap up their children is very surprising to foreigners. Indeed, colds are often the result of elementary overheating. What to do? Include common sense! You need to dress the child according to the weather and taking into account physical activity. Take your child to the garden in the morning – it’s still cool, you dressed him warmly. In the afternoon they went for a walk – it’s already warmer. But the teacher will put on the child everything in which he came from home. Another example from life. In winter, a mother and two children come into the minibus. She took off the hood of her outerwear to preserve her hair. It’s warm in the cabin, and the kids wear hats and scarves all the way. Therefore, the first step towards hardening and health is a revision of the “commonplace” ideas about what is good for a child. “
3. Sleep with the window open
Much has been said about the benefits of fresh air for sleep. But we are happy to use this advice in the summer. In winter, all the windows in the child’s room are sealed. What if a draft?
“Our brain – weighing up to two kilograms, consumes much more oxygen than 638 muscles and 220 joints and ligaments. Therefore, it is so important for the quality rest and health of our body to provide an influx of fresh air during sleep. I recommend sleeping with the window open at any time of the year. If it’s really scary, put on a hat for the child at night. “
4. Minimize your medication intake
If, nevertheless, the baby gets sick, this is not a reason to refuse hardening. Valery Neretin believes that a cold child can also be tempered.
“As soon as a child’s temperature rises, parents immediately begin to bring it down with the help of medication. But science has proven that at temperatures from 38,5 to 39,5, the body produces interferon – the basis of our immunity. Therefore, you do not need to do anything with temperatures up to 39,5. If higher, try lowering it without medication. Give your baby a cold drink, undress, rub with a hot towel and wrap in a cold sheet. Or pour cold water over the child’s head. You need to pour it over quickly – in 3-5 seconds. And a remedy for temperature, and hardening at the same time. “
Self-healing is not only about hardening. It is also adequate physical activity, work with the mind, changing habits, even in matters of nutrition.
“The world of the child is determined by the parents. Therefore, a lot will depend on your decisions and your personal example. If you spend your free time actively, your child will also receive the necessary physical activity. Walking in the fresh air, cycling, skiing, skating – all this works for the immune system. Paying attention to nutrition. Immunostimulating products include: fresh cabbage, black raisins, Ural apples, citrus fruits, honey. There should be as many of them as possible in the daily diet. If the child is sick, cut down on foods that activate the production of mucus and suppress the immune system: milk, cream, fatty cottage cheese, sour cream, porridge, potatoes. I work with parents in a wide variety of formats. I give lectures, master classes, health lessons. I advise on skype. I want to convey a simple thought: health is the basis of our happiness. Hippocrates stated: “The doctor heals, but nature heals.” Paracelsus was sure: “I will heat the cell, I will be able to defeat any disease!” I also like the quote of Socrates: “You cannot influence the body without affecting the mind and soul of a person!” Therefore, in matters of hardening and health improvement, an integrated approach is required. “
