The health and well-being of my clients, family, and friends are my top priority and especially in times of upheaval. I understand the concern and uncertainty you may be experiencing surrounding the coronavirus (COVID-19) and I am committed to being responsive to your needs as the situation continues to evolve. You might only need a short refresher on Staying Strong, Focused, and Calm. Focus on what you desire versus focusing on what you want to avoid.
If you know your immune system is strong, simply continue to maintain your regime. If you wonder if your immune system is up to the challenge, here are some highly effective remedies to strengthen your immune system.
- Gargle with saltwater...Morning and evening!
- Honey. Honey not only helps soothe the throat it also works as a cough suppressant. Manuka honey made in Australia and New Zealand is the best. However, if you can't find it locally, order on the Internet or use local honey.
- Take a Ginger Shot. Get it from a local juice store or juice a knob of ginger yourself.
- Elderberry syrup. Anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties making it a powerhouse when it comes to fighting colds/flu.
- Propolis. Propolis is the substance bees use to seal in their hives so it’s super anti-viral and anti-bacterial. It’s great at fighting the common cold or sore throats/flu.
- Essential oils. Eucalyptus oil has antiviral and antimicrobial properties that have historically been used to treat the common cold. Peppermint oil is used as a natural decongestant and fever-reducer.
- Garlic. Garlic is packed with minerals, enzymes, vitamin C, sulfur, and selenium which help bust colds and flu.
- Probiotics. Probiotics help give your immune system a boost. Whether through a probiotic pill or probiotic-rich foods like yogurt and sauerkraut, it all starts in your gut!
- Bone Broth. Bone broth contains anti-inflammatory amino acids and is packed full of immune-supporting vitamins and minerals that are extra easy for your body to digest. Don’t reach for those bouillon cubes though – you gotta use the real stuff to get the benefits!
- Epsom Salt Bath: Add Epsom salt to a hot bath along with some essential oils if you’d like to have a relaxing, detoxifying experience.
- Last, but not least. Sleep! Give your body the rest it needs. To help your body heal, you need to sleep as much as your body needs. Avoid the urge to push through illness. Your body is working extra hard to fight something so rest and allow it to recover. If you’re having trouble sleeping, check out Live Better’s Immunity + Melatonin, which is a mixture of immune-boosting vitamins + minerals plus melatonin to help you sleep.
I encourage you to use your best tools and strengthen and maintain a positive mindset and attitude. If you are focused on how horrible everything is...you will create more of the same. If you focus on staying mentally/emotionally strong and calm that is what you will create which will assist your body to heal.
Stay Strong. Stay Focused. Stay Calm. This too shall pass.
'Together We are Strong as a Tribe.''
