Only 2 sleeps to go until Autumn!
This year in Queensland it’s been a pretty good year weather wise, a little warm, and a little dry (a pain if you are trying to fill that all important water tank), but no cyclones so far touch wood, a much improvement on last year in the North.
I wonder what Autumn holds for us?
Autumn, with its warm days and cooler nights, is the ideal time to be thinking about strengthening your immune system and considering measures to maintain physical, mental and emotional balance.
So what can you do?
- · Get outside and soak up some Vitamin D. Incidental exposure (not sun baking of course) in particular triggers and arms the body's T cells, the cells in the body that seek out and destroy any invading bacteria and viruses.
- Drink Herbs: Our Breathe Tea is a great fortifying blend ideal to keep those winter ills and chills away. Get into some reishi mushroom, astragalus,horehound, red clover, licorice which may boost the immune system amongst other benefits. Keep some fenugreek on hand in case of severe congestion.
- · Have some homeopathic remedies on hand: Owen Remedies has a great range of single remedies and complexes such as hay fever, sinus & throat & tonsil complexes.
- Purify your environment, burn thieves essential oil blend to purify your air, inhale breathe essential oil blend to clear congestion. You can add either of these cleansing essential oils to your home cleaning routine. Add some to your mop water for a squeaky clean floor, or make your own bench or room spray by mixing essential oil blend with some purified water and essential oil solubuliser.
- · Eat foods rich in vitamin A, C, E and Zinc.
