Get Fast Relief for That Stubborn Chest Congestion!

If you’ve ever used cough drops or nasal inhalers, you’ve experienced the congestion-clearing powers of eucalyptus oil. Essential oil extracted from the leaves of the eucalyptus tree, a type of evergreen native to Australia, has long been used in cough drops and cold medications as well as in mouthwashes, toothpaste, detergents, and liniments for arthritis pain.

It qualifies perfectly as “cheap insurance,” as my dad would say: not only is it the least expensive essential oil available today, it is simple to use, effective at relieving congestion, and can also provide protection against respiratory infections.

There are an ever-increasing number of drugs available to deal with chest congestion but the side effects associated with the use of these drugs is a concern for many of you.

Home remedies for congestion are free from side effects and can provide instant relief.

Why not use simple easy to use remedies first?

Fast Remedy: Eucalyptus can encourage better breathing and help to open clogged nasal and bronchial passages. To relieve congestion, it can also be used by placing a few drops on a handkerchief or adding 10 to 15 drops to a vaporizer or some boiling water on the stove. Also, eucalyptus oil makes a soothing chest rub for congestion and mucus buildup when diluted with olive oil. In addition to clearing the air passages, inhaling eucalyptus has been shown to cause an increase in the uptake of oxygen from the lungs to the bloodstream. This is great news for for anyone struggling with bronchial or respiratory problems.

Steam: As easy as a pot on the stove filled with steaming water plus a towel for a tent, steam inhalation therapy is quick but nonetheless effective. By inhaling the steam  for approximately 10 minutes, one can often notice a difference immediately. Due to steam inhalation, the accumulated mucus in the respiratory tract loosens up, which helps break down and clear chest congestion.

Bath: A hot shower or bath can also contribute to ease the discomfort associated with chest congestion. Inhaling steam that has built up in the bathroom will moisten the air passages and thin out the mucus.

Those are the most efficient remedies out there for dealing with and kicking that stubborn, weekend ruining chest congestion we all love to hate. So why not try it today and see how much faster you find relief!

The Good News and Bad News About Your Seasonal Allergies.

It’s too familiar. It feels like the coming on of the flu. Slight headache. Sinus pressure. Tiredness. And then… sneezing. There’s a good chance you’re not sick. (Good news!) It’s likely you’ve got seasonal allergies. (Bad News.)

Why is this bad news? Well, a cold will go away. Allergies like to hang on to you like a dear friend, for months on end. You can’t work or function like that - much less enjoy the beauty of the season.

So rather than buy out the local drug store’s stock of anti-histamines, we’d like to suggest you take a more natural, just as effective and much safer for the body route.

Here's what you want to do:

Eat the right foods.

Choose to eat a clean and balanced diet, full of high quality protein, fruits and vegetables. This helps to reduce may reduce hay fever symptoms and also strengthens the immune system. Drink a lot of water only, and do your best to avoid grains, dairy, excess salt, sugar, alcohol and anything other highly processed foods. Bonus helpful foods to help get rid of hay fever are garlic, ginger, onions and honey. Steep them in a tea for best results. Once it has steeped for at least 10 minutes, feel free to add ice if that would be more weather appropriate.

Herbs with superpowers.

There are several herbs that may be used to calm the sneezing, coughing, itching and congestion symptoms associated with hay fever. They work mainly by strengthening and supporting the allergen-fighting immune system. Some of these herbs are stinging nettle, gingko and quercetin.

Drink a lot of water.

Drinking adequate water will dilute your system as well as keep the mucous flowing so it doesn’t stagnate in your sinus cavities. The more dehydrated you are, the more pressure and burning you’re likely to feel.

Acupuncture helps.

Acupuncture has been shown repeatedly to effectively relieve symptoms of hay fever. Acupuncture corrects and balances the energy flow of your body (your body's electrical system) through the use of needles on the skin, specifically on facial points. This stimulates the immune system, clear congestion, any associated pain and reduce inflammation.

Steam with eucalyptus

This is an easy and relaxing option for relieving hay fever symptoms. Start a hot shower or bath and breathe in the steam.  The steam will break up the mucous and relax the uptight muscles involved.  You can enhance this option by using the acupressure mentioned while in the heat.  Also, adding essential oils like our Eucalyptus Oil Shower Spray to the steam WITH the acupressure IN the steam, will give you peak relief.

Other useful tips:

There will be days where the pollen count is simply high and your safest choice will be to stay indoors. (Enter your zip code here and find out your local pollen count!)  It’s also smart to avoid going outside during more windy days or after thunderstorms. Instead of a lawn, have bricks, rocks and stone for a landscape. And as needed throughout the day, rinse your face and blow your nose to keep yourself clear from any pollen collecting there.

• Add menthol crystals to your favorite hair oil as a hair growth accelerator! Mix a small amount into the oil and massage on to the scalp before you shower, twice a week !

• DIY Vapor Rub: Many people love making their own vapor rub alternative that is more effective and made of safer ingredients with the same cooling/numbing feeling that also opens up the sinuses. 
• Helps with the discomfort of tension headaches too. You can apply this mix over the temples, cheek bones, collarbone, and under the nose moments before sleep. Not only will it relax the tension but will also help with minor types of congestion. Due to it's strength, be sure to dilute the crystals in sweet almond, jajoba or other skin-friendly oil and keep away from the eyes!
• Sinus Clearing: When your sinuses are really stopped up, just the smallest amount in a little very hot water, will send vapors up into your sinus, clearing them and helping you breath. Just keep your eyes closed to protect them from any chill or sting. 
• Used as aromatherapy, the scent can be used to provide relief of stress, anxiety and nervousness.

If you must go outside, take a little caster oil or petroleum jelly and line your nostrils with it. This creates a gentle barrier and protects your membranes from pollen. Lastly, wash your face, splashing water on your eyes and blowing your nose, to rid yourself of any possible pollen collecting.

Don't Let Sinus Pain Boss You Around. Get Relief Easily and Naturally at Home NOW.

Sinus infections and relentless bouts of hay fever are frustrating and have the power to really slow down your life. But you're busy and don't have time to be shackled down by annoying sneezing, congestion and headaches.  

Spring time should be a time to celebrate and enjoy the sun, not dread it's aftermath. The blooming of new flowers, and rampant germs and viruses cause our immune systems to go haywire, and work overtime to push them out of our system, causing inflammation and irritation along the way! And using all those conventional allergy meds will often leave you feeling even worse. 

If you've suffered from sinus irritation and crazy pollen induced hay fever, you know I'm not exaggerating and totally feel the pain.  But instead of despairing and hiding in your window-sealed house for the season, let me give you some tips. 

You actually can find relief and do so naturally with essential oils.

Starting with our favorite, of course: 

Eucalyptus Oil! (You knew I was going to say that, right?) Eucalyptus is the super hero of essential oils.  When inhaled, it's oil can open the respiratory system, reduce inflammation and allow for better breathing! It confidently storms through your bronchial passages to clear to the path for more air!

Ah, hay fever.        

The dependable relative to spring that likes to show up at random hours, interfering with your daily routine and work schedule.  

I can't stand these phases in nature that are so invasive of my space and comfort! 

It's so incredibly frustrating to have that continuous, unrelenting urge to sniffle, sneeze and scratch your eyes out, than sinuses plugged up with pollen. It's all really quite strange and unnecessary really.  This is the time we are meant to celebrate the return of the sun, not dread it's aftermath. It begins, our immune systems go haywire, and see harmless plants (or dust, or dander) as real threats, and works overtime to push them out of our system, causing inflammation and irritation along the way! And using all those conventional allergy meds will often leave you feeling even worse. 

Are you feeling it?  If you've suffered from sinus irritation and crazy pollen induced hay fever, you know I'm not exaggerating and totally feel the pain.  But instead of despairing, running out to buy a gas mask or hiding in your window-sealed house for the season, let me give you some tips.
