Glad to hear your feeling better today Mystress.
Since it seems there are others out there suffering now, I put together this
list. It is of natural remedies for possible short term relief and a few
pointers for the long haul.
Golden Seal - a common herb in small quantities can ease allergies.
Mint - A few drops of your favorite mint essential oil in a handkerchief
breathed slowly through nose and mouth. The same few drops of essential oil
could be placed in a small bowl of steaming water. Then hold head over steam
and breath full and slow.
Lavender - tea made from the flowers will act as a mild sedative and will ease
congestion and relieve headaches.
Hyssop - tea will also do the same. CAUTION: If pregnant, or trying to get
pregnant, avoid this remedy. Also there are warnings for those who are high
strung.
Cayenne - or any other pepper with capstan can be helpful, but unappetizing to
many. Myself, being addicted to hot and spicy it is no problem. Whatever your
cooking add as much of a hot pepper as you can take. It will usually clear
your sinuses before your meal is over. Additional benefits are that your brain
will flood you body with endorphins. These are our brains pleasure and pain
killing chemicals, built in drugs, yeah!. Related compounds will also lower
ones stress level. Antiseptically benefits also exist. If nothing else, your
mouth may get so hot and on fire that you will at least forget about your other
symptoms for a while. It is also possible to have a flashback experience and
relive the heat the next day in the bathroom as well. :-)
Garlic - can help reduce blood pressure which can relieve some forms of head
ache.
Honey/bee pollen - Another list member suggested local honey. This typically
is a long term preventative measure as is eating bee pollen. The theory is
that by exposing yourself to natural pollens from your environment, you will
build up a tolerance and immunity to these pollens.
Many speculate that it is the sheltered environments we live in that lead to
our becoming allergic to natural air. Others claim our diminished immune
systems are to blame from our lifestyles in general, namely lack of exercise.
According to Celtic Shaman Andy Baggot "We are not eating in harmony with our
climate and the seasons. That means that our biochemistry is off balance.
Also the amount of chemicals and toxins that are in the food chain are
horrendous. And all the toxins have this effect of ungrounding you. You are
what you eat. If you sort out your nutrition, then everything else sorts
itself out and you can be happy, fulfilled and healthy. It's so simple and
that's why its so powerful..... ....Cocaine and (refined) sugar are very
similar in their addictive nature and their disempowering nature. Three and a
half ounces of sugar will weaken your immune system by 50%, simply because it
takes so much energy for your pancreas to produce insulin to bring your blood
sugar levels back down. And all the time your body's energy is doing that it
cannot be feeding your immune system."
Other Shaman advocate only eating locally grown food because that food has
energy (in chemical form) consistent with what you are exposed to. Sort of
self regulating natural medicine. This is highly impractical for most city
dwellers in modern cites, where your food at the grocery store comes from every
corner of the planet.
Hope this info is helpful to some of your sufferers. I went through my yearly
suffering two months ago as plants bloom earlier down here in South Texas.
Light and Love,
Doc Kunda
