These days we’ve found ourselves doing whatever we can to stay well, and avoiding sickness that surrounds this this time of year. For us this means more rest, more afternoons at home, visits to the salt spa, eucalyptus oil in dehumidifiers, lemon and honey tea, vitamin C drinks, antioxidant packed smoothies, my oldest girl waking me up at 5 am to help her do the neti pot, and lots of fresh air.
Here is where we spent our Friday evening, and Saturday morning, at Knoxville’s Salt Spa.
I’ve written about the salt spa before when I detailed some of our favorite natural remedies for alergies in a post this past spring. Lots of the same things apply to fall colds and congestions. Also, here’s the recipe to our Immune Boosting Popsicles, a post on why we don’t get the flu shot, and how we lived to tell about it when we DID get the flu. Tis the season!
So far we have been able to ward off anything more serious, like the several cases of strep throat going around at school. And I hope it stays that way.
How are your kids holding up this fall?
