How to Heal Fast!!!

In a go, go, go world, healing needs to happen fast! We have errands to run, and things to do! No one has time to lay around not feeling well. To make matters worse, you may have other responsibilities to attend to such as kids, cleaning and prior arrangements that can’t be canceled. My family and I recently recovered from this crazy sinus infection, and as a contractor teacher, I don’t get paid if I don’t work! Sickness happens to the best of us, so let’s discuss some tips to help ourselves feel better fast! I have attached my affiliate link to some products on Amazon that I use personally!

• Release the Mucus- if you are experiencing a sickness that gives you mucus, do your best to release the mucus anytime it comes up. Your body is bringing it up to get rid of it, so help your body by releasing the mucus rather than swallow it or suck it back up your nose! ( I usually use a “spit cup” that’s in close proximity so that I can get rid of mucus as soon as it comes up. I know this can be hard if you are in public, but try your best to get rid of the mucus anyway you can to speed up healing!)
  • Mullein Leaf Tea (Awesome tea to help release mucus if you drink it diligently!)

• Plenty of Fluids– this is includes plain water if you are able to get it down, teas, juices preferable natural or organic
  • Wellness Tea Pack; Echinacea Tea with Elderberry herbs; Elderberry Tea

• Herbs– Herbs like Elderberry, Echinacea, Golden Seal-any herb that is known to aid with immunity and take the appropriate amount a few times a day for fast results
  • Elderberry Gummies; Elderberry Syrup; Golden Seal Capsules

• Vitamin C– vitamin c helps jumpstart your immune system and helps the body repair
  • Vitamin C Spray; Vitamin C Drops (It says for kids but Adults can use it as well)

• Hydrogen Peroxide-Most people think of this as a remedy for cuts, scraps and to stop bleeding which it is. However, most people forget that peroxide kills germs as well! It can be used as an oral rinse to kill germs in your mouth as well as whitening. Also, you can use it to clear a stuffy nose by using a q-tip with some hydrogen peroxide and filtered water to clean the inside of your nose. (I personally don’t dilute it, I use it straight, but that’s because I am used to it!)
  • Oral Rinse Peroxide with Peppermint (This can be used everyday or when you are trying to kill any bacteria in the mouth or throat!)

• REST– this one can be difficult for a lot of us, but the body needs rest to revitalize and rejuvenate itself. We heal so much during our rest time and sleep time
  • Magnesium Gummies for Restful Sleep

• Be Diligent– You must take your herbs and vitamins during your healing period everyday to ensure a speedy recovery!
  • Cool Erasable Medicine Reminder

• Positive Thinking: Our minds are very powerful. The body does what the mind believes. So if you think you are going to heal fast, then you are! If you don’t think you will heal fast, then you won’t! Imagine yourself feeling better and what you plan to do once you are better. Setting the intention to feel better during your healing process will definitely speed up your recovery!

Patience– As much as we would like to have our sickness gone in a few hours, we have to give our body time to do what it needs to do to heal! With the help of everything mentioned, you will heal in no time! Make sure to love yourself a bit extra during your healing process and be kind towards your body!
