JAKARTA - At the end of the year, which is approaching collective leave and the end of December 2025 holidays, as usual, Indonesia has been greeted by the rainy season. However, it seems that until now Indonesia is still going through the transition season, as if the dry season is not ready to leave. Moreover, transitions are now often missed from expectations. From observations a few years back, the BMKG said that transitions are now difficult to predict and the duration is uncertain so that the dry season and rainy season limits are uncertain. That way, people are increasingly encouraged to be better prepared for the transition season.

The long high intensity and duration of transitions can potentially disrupt the body's immune system, of course also have the potential to interfere with plans to fill the December 2025 school holiday season.

Andry Mahyudi, Head of Business Upper Respiratory & Women Health - Public Relations, PT Bintang Toedjoe, also felt this difference. This transitional season is prone to making us fall because the body is not only busy with daily activities, but must always adapt quickly to drastic weather changes.

Changes in drastic temperature and uncertain weather make people more indoors. dr. Ikram Syah Maulana, a general practitioner as well as health influencer explained the various impacts of transitions on health.

Main impacts, respiratory problems such as coughs and flu are higher because of the easy spread of viruses and bacteria. Not only rain, extreme heat can also cause severe dehydration and can lead to hypolocal shock, namely emergency medical conditions that occur when the body loses a large amount of blood or fluid, making the heart unable to pump enough blood to meet the needs of the body," he said.

In order not to fall, especially before the collective leave, the body and mood must both be prepared to face the transition season. Uncertain weather does limit the space for movement, but it should not be used as an excuse not to actively move and socialize. Find exercise not only trains the health of the body but also the health of the mind. One of them is with a routine dance activity of 15 minutes which is easy and can be done together.

Ara Ajisiwi, actor and professional dancer, said how the dance that is usually done by young people is not only an artistic expression, but also daily exercise.

"Unlike running or other sports, dance can be done indoors to avoid the impact of the weather and maintain the health of the lungs and heart. Accompanied by upbeat music and with friends, dance is a sport as well as an exciting hobby of healing," he said.

The transitional season may now be increasingly difficult to predict. So that not only body health is affected, it can also cause stress. Dance can motivate you to do beneficial movements for the body, while keeping your mood always happy because fun can be done with friends and relatives. Good exercise is a sport that we can do consistently because doing it doesn't feel heavy, it's fun.

"In addition, if the body starts to feel unwell, it can seek support from natural anti-inflammatory content such as red ginger and daunding leaves in order to avoid coughing and short breathing. This natural content will be easier for the body to digest, especially in the face of uncertain weather," said dr. Ikram Syah Maulana.

Fortunately, these two ingredients can be found in a bottle of Herbal Comix that is easy to drink and carry.

Respiratory tract disorders often occur in the transition season, therefore it helps health with solutions that contain original Indonesian herbs such as the Herbal Comix. "We are very lucky that Indonesia has a wealth of herbal plants that can be used to support health in the face of the transition season," concluded Andry Mahyudi.
