Anxiety and fear dissipate quickly when countered with conscious breathing.
The
signals our bodies use to tell us we need to cleanse ourselves
physically, mentally, and emotionally are multifaceted and often mirror
symptoms we associate with illness. If we heed these signs, we not only
feel better quickly but also stave off poor health before it can start.
These quick fixes for common ailments can get you started.
1.
Applying pressure to the acupressure point between the thumb and
forefinger can release blockages causing pain, tension, and fatigue. You
can relieve a headache naturally by squeezing for 20 seconds and
releasing for 10 seconds, without letting go, four times.
2.
To breathe freely, irrigate your nasal passages with a neti pot and warm
salt water. As you clear and soothe the sinuses, congestion associated
with allergies or infection will gradually disappear.
3. Apple
cider vinegar is a powerful purifying and detoxifying agent. Soaking for
20 minutes in a warm bath infused with two cups of apple cider vinegar
pulls toxins from the body and can clear blocked energy.
4.
The foods you eat can have a profound impact on your outlook and mood.
Eating a small yet satisfying meal rich in complex carbohydrates can
lift your spirit and help you let go of feelings of anger, irritability,
and depression.
5. Anxiety and fear dissipate quickly when
countered with conscious breathing because concentrating on the breath
enables you to refocus your attention inward. You can ground yourself
and regain your usual calm by taking a series of deep belly breaths as
you visualize your feet growing roots that stretch miles down into the
earth.
6. Though tuning out can seem counterproductive, a few
minutes spent lost in daydreams or listening to soothing music can help
you see your circumstances from a new angle when you feel frustrated.
7.
If you feel ill health coming on, brew a wellness elixir. Simmer three
sliced lemons, one teaspoon freshly grated ginger, one clove freshly
minced garlic, and one quarter teaspoon cayenne pepper in five cups
water until the lemons are soft and pale. Strain a portion into a mug
and add honey by tablespoons until you can tolerate the taste. Drinking
this potent mixture of antibacterial, antiviral, and antifungal
ingredients three times each day can ensure your symptoms never progress
into a full-blown illness.
