Pour water from top to bottom

For people with weak bodies, it can lead to strokes. We need to help the body gradually get used to water, there has to be a “warning” for the body to get used to.
The correct bathing method according to folk experience is that when entering the bath, you need to take a sip of water and take a deep breath to make your belly swell, then let the water flow from your feet to your chest, then take water to your hands and clap it on your chest, then clap it on your back, then wash your neck and then you can pour water on your head, at that time you can spit out the water you have sipped or continue to sip. After this step, you can bathe as you like, you can wash your hair and then scrub other areas.
