It sucks being sick
I've been thinking about recovery lately.
I just got over a cold.
These are some of the staples I put in place when I'm down and out to lessen the severity and duration of whatever is moving through. Some may be based in science, others may be pseudo science, sometimes I can't tell anymore.
- I make sure I take my vitamin d and up my vitamin c
- Sleep as much as I can, regardless of the time of day
- Watch a lot of TV and movies
- Stop exercising
- Eat more carbohydrates
- Nasal rinse, repeatedly
- Give myself permission to lay down and feel sick for a little while
- Go outside when I feel up to it
- Walk when I can
- Drink lots of broth, put minerals in my water, and sip on tea
The list can go on, but here's a start.
I want to put a little note in here that these things can be easier when it's a mild cold over a week. It can become more challenging if the duration increases or if it's something that's repeated relatively frequently.
What else do you do when a pesky virus takes hold?
