Head Colds.


So I have been fighting a really bad head cold for the past 6 days & man I will tell you it is the worse one I have ever had. I am a person that really doesn't like taking medication so I asked my facebook friends for any ideas on natural ways to get rid of head colds & I will say I good some good feed back. Some things I tried I thought I would share with you that I found really worked.

#1. Wool socks on your feed with vicks on the bottom of your feet while you sleep.
#2. Boil water on the stove & take a metal spoon put some vicks on it & steam it under your nose make's for some easy breathing, then so you don't waste the vicks take the melted vicks & put it on a wool sock and wrap it around your neck. Use a safety pin to hold it on while you sleep.
#3. Apple cider vinegar about 2 cups in the tub, fill the tub with water as hot as your body can take. This helps to relax your muscle's make sure you shower after so you don't smell like vinegar.lol
#4. Last good old fashion hot tea but the one thing every one does is go for lemon with honey, green tea or something sweet. But the best one to have is mint tea because mint helps open the air ways which allows for easy breathing & a better sleep. Make sure to drink it when it's hot & don't add sugar or milk. Milk will only build up Flem.

Hope if you get a cold you try some because man they worked. For the last 2 days I have been doing it & every time I did I the 4 thing I had felt better & today I am feeling great so I am going to go get ready because I have a sewing project waiting for me & I will be truthful I am drying to get it done so I can post some photo's. Hugs & Kisses Curly.:)
