Cold and flu season may be among us, but it doesn’t have to scare you into staying inside all day (that’s actually one of the worst things you can do!). There are plenty of ways to stay healthy this time of year.. naturally. Have you ever stopped to think about why it is that cold and flu “season” seems to suddenly spring up around the same time every year? Well, I have and modern science has a lot to say about that too. Turns out, it’s not truly a “season” and the uptick in illness has a lot to do with lifestyle changes in the colder months. Fall and winter is a time to go inward, be introspective, and cozy up to those we love. While years ago society was set up to support these natural shifts and periods of rest in the body, today’s culture is not. Chances are, if you make a few subtle changes in your daily routine and put some extra emphasis on self care, you’ll stay much healthier during these darker months of the year. In my latest blog post I’m sharing what works for me, some of the science to support it, and reminding you to incorporate more ease into these busy winter months! Bonus tip not in the post.. open those windows! It may be cold outside, but opening windows, even for a few minutes allows air to circulate and can naturally rid your home of germs. Happy reading!
Self care can come in many forms and when dealing with chronic or short term pain it's all too easy to try to push through without properly addressing the issue. While controlling inflammation through diet and mindful movement is a big part of my pain management plan, self massage and essential oils are just as important. Now I'm sharing why I reach for this rub instead of prescription medicine
