How to Fight a Head Cold!

During the holidays I was hit by a nasty head cold. I was like, “Really?!!? How am I supposed to accomplish all there is to do over the busy holiday season AND be sick?” Ugh…sniffle, sniffle, cough, cough. There is nothing stylish about a head cold! It was time to battle.

I took ON the head cold with a fighting passion. I stepped into Health by Heidi, a nutritional supplement store and asked Heidi herself what I could do about my terrible situation.  She pulled out about five different containers of capsules and then the clincher…she pulled out a handy, dandy pendulum rose-colored crystal doodad. When I first saw it, I was like, what?!! and laughed a little bit. She asked me to touch each container as she swung the pendulum over them to pick up on my energy and help determine the best options for myself. When the crystal swung sideways, the herbal supplements were a no-go but when the pendulum swung back and forth, they were a yes-go!

The supplements that were spiritually chosen for me by Heidi were:

1. Clean And Clear III. Since I was in an acute stage I was instructed to take five capsules an hour until I became clean and clear. However, I’m terrible at swallowing large pills and my gag reflex got the best of me. Ai yi yi!

2. Astragalus Root – five capsules a day.

3. Zinc Lozenge  - one a day.

I was a bit skeptical. But I have to admit, it worked!!! I didn’t have to go on any antibiotics and within four days I was much clearer. ;)

I’m glad I found a remedy that worked for me before things got worse. I had a lot of people trying to give me their best remedies for the common cold that I wasn’t too sure about. For example, my cobbler suggested I put cayenne pepper in my tea! Can you say Burning Woman??? Haha! Yes, there are probably tons of remedies that could work, but I think a lot of rest and a lot of hot tea with lemon and honey can also do the trick.

The good news is I’m now well and ready to conquer this New Year for my fabulous clients!
