How to clean your allergies with 2 simple home tips

It’s that time of year again when people who have allergies complain of nasal congestion, coughing and wheezing, itching, shortness of breath, headache, fatigue, hives, and other skin rashes. Many people experience allergies due to outdoor pollen combined with food and stagnant indoor air that carries dust, mold and other airborne pollutants.

So how can you stop this annual cycle? What can you do at home to stop this further intrusion of allergy problems? Where can you go for relief if your allergies have gotten out of control?

He would like:

o Enjoy parks and other public outdoor areas

o Have pets that you can live with

o Eat foods you have avoided

o Feel good without fatigue

o Sleep better than ever

o Relieve stress: Allergies often add stress to your system.

Keeping your body detoxified (self-cleaning) is one of two important steps you can do at home. A simple yoga pose done correctly can keep your own personal cleansing team (your immune system) in tune.

Sit on the floor like in the picture on your heels with your feet 2 inches apart. Exhale as you slowly lower your upper body towards the ground. Try to get your forehead to touch the ground in front of you. Place your arms on the floor with your hands under your feet and your index finger in the valley or web between your big and second toes. Inhale deeply. Breathe in and out slowly for 1 minute. Your goal is to work up to 2 minutes. After each beat, relax on your back and allow your muscles to relax for a few minutes. This pose stimulates the body’s ability to cleanse itself. Helps detoxify the liver, lungs, stomach, spleen, and bladder.

Second, how clean is your environment? Clients often come to me to treat their allergies, however if your home or office needs a good seasonal cleaning, allergy treatments will only work for a short time, even if your problem is food-focused.

Many foods contain natural molds, for example bananas, grapes, and most other fruits. Or your own dust, like anything that can be made into a ‘flour’ like wheat, corn, potatoes and more. So keep your home and office as clean as possible. Dust and mold buildup in your office or home and on food can actually “create” allergy intolerance. Here are some tips:

Detox your home and office. Use organic products found at your local health food market.

Dust with a damp cloth. Safe organic dusting products keep your environment free of toxins.

Use machine washable curtains and clean them regularly. Natural laundry soap is better.

Do not store things under the bed. Dust or vacuum under beds weekly.

Do not allow stuffed animals in the bedroom; interior materials often contain sawdust.

Remove dust collectors such as pennants, pictures, trophies, books, models, and dried or silk flowers from the bedroom.

Use an air filter and clean the filters regularly

Vacuum furniture and carpets regularly. Use a newer, bagless vacuum that comes equipped with a self-cleaning air filter system so dust doesn’t get into the air.

Limit birds, animals or reptiles in the house.

Bathe pets frequently. This means every 7 to 14 days.

If you have a pet allergy, please do not sleep with your pet. Provide them with their own bed right outside your bedroom door for their comfort.

Do not groom animals in the house.

The Wealth Connection – 2 Steps to Brighten Your Golden Years

Estimated reading time: 4 minutes

Visualize your life 10 or even 20 years from now. Where do you plan to be? What are you doing and with whom?

Most of us between the ages of 35 and 50 expect to be retired to some degree in 15 to 20 years or less. We see ourselves living off retirement funds enjoying life and family. I have never had a client tell me that they see themselves penniless or sick. However, these same customers do not have a complete plan.

They may have a retirement fund at work and other investments, but how are they performing? Did you plan a financial foundation? What is your wellness investment program like?

Many people tell me that they do not have a financial foundation program or wellness investment program. Regardless of age and health, it’s never too late to start planning. It’s better than no plan at all. In this article, I will give you 2 of the 21 most important wealth connection steps that I offer in my online course.

Ask yourself, how is wealth related to your health? Does it do it at all? Today, most people would agree that finances play a big role in how we feel. Lack of funds can add stress to life and play a significant role in your health. Ill health can quickly eat away at your savings if you don’t have a wellness plan other than health insurance.

In fact, I advise you to reconsider health insurance. What I mean by this is that it is what it says it is. Health insurance is for ill-health problems. Only a few “health insurance” programs are wellness insurance.

Health insurance also determines the type of care you can receive. Welfare insurance, on the other hand, is still an emerging system. Some companies offer these types of plans and we do not endorse any insurance company as my job is to educate you a bit and you need to see what is right for your specific needs.

The wellness insurance programs I’ve seen work like this. The self-employed or companies can purchase these programs. They have significant medical benefits for the hospital and sometimes prescription drugs. They also have a “fund” where part of your premium that generates interest goes. That is correct interest. You can use this money for any type of care you want, including the alternative medicine of your choice. Any funds you do not use in a given year will remain in your personal account and earn interest year after year. At a certain age you can take that money out and use it. I have seen accounts reach 30k and more. Why buy health insurance you don’t use?

Step one

Learn about wellness insurance programs. Only buy from a well-known insurance company. One whose name you have heard of in the past that also offers regular fonts. Buyers should beware of the market, so do your research.

Second step

How much do you personally deposit into your savings account each week? Most people say that I have it drawn from my paycheck. This is not what I mean. Think about how much you spend each day on simple things like coffee or food. Can you save $5.00 per week? I’ve only met one person who said he couldn’t even save that much. Six months later, this person who did not become a customer called me on the phone and told me that she had been doing it and it really worked. Here’s the short and sweet plan: I go into more detail in my online show. Contact my office for more details on how to receive a free 7-part eCourse online.

Every week whether you have your direct deposited paycheck or not; have everything you can afford withdrawn from your account and placed in a savings plan at an investment firm like Charles Schwab. Use whoever you want and make sure they have an automatic withdrawal program and the funds go into a savings program.

Each quarter doubles the amount you are entering. If you find that you are not really losing this money from your daily life; double it every month. Don’t be surprised if you start to look forward to saving and adding more to what you ‘put away’ each week.

Once this account equals 6 months’ income, we move this money to a different type of account. I move on to the future basic steps in the online program. But we continue to put funds into savings.

What happens is that we have a savings account in the base of 6 to 9 months earning a little better than a bank savings account. The next level is a certain type of money market with the same amount of funds earning a slightly higher interest rate, and so on through the Our Wealth Mastery program.

Point of fact, recently “Today on MSN” offered a glimpse into the habit of millionaires. Simple basic planning won hands down.

Bonus Tip

Invest in your well-being. Visit an alternative practitioner such as an NCCAOM-licensed acupuncturist. This ensures that you are seeing someone who has completed an accredited program at an Oriental Medical College. Many acupuncturists are licensed through medical or chiropractic programs. These programs lack training and number of hours to meet. Make sure your doctor is an active member of the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine. Even if you love your doctor, choose an NCCAOM acupuncturist for this job; After all, would you take your child to a gynecologist just because he has babies?

Or if you have a Porsche, would you take it to a Honda dealer just because you also have a Honda? No, we take our loved ones and possessions to the experts. Do the same with your health.

Why do I suggest an acupuncturist? They are trained in wellness care and health care. Oriental Medicine practitioners know how to work with all kinds of illnesses and keep you well. Plan ahead, even if you feel fine, get an evaluation now and follow a wellness program to keep you feeling great into your golden years.

A wellness program may simply mean visiting your acupuncturist and massage therapist once a month. Add up the dollars you save by not getting sick.

Invest these savings in your financial foundation.

If you have health problems, think about where you will be in 10 years if you continue to ignore and downplay your health, use drugs or have surgery without exploring other options. Acupuncture is virtually painless and offers greater relaxation than even massage.
