Whether you are cold or not, wear layers! Make sure you keep all of your vital organs and your chest warm. It doesn’t matter if you are super cold or not, just rug up! You need to keep your body away from the elements so it can work its wonders on healing your body, and not spend its energy keeping your body warm. This is the classic, but very vital need to stop your cold before it gets worse.
Make sure you are eating healthy and nutrient dense food. Don’t just have instant noodles and pizza every day. Have all your food groups, particularly fruit, veg, carbs and meat, in order to give your body enough fuel to recover and heal itself. This may be harder for some than others but try your hardest to live your most healthy life.
Whether you are sick or not, wash your hands. This is needed in order to stop the germs spreading. When you leave the house and come back, or go to the bathroom and everything else in between. Wash your hands. Simple as that.
One thing that I love to do when I am not feeling too great, is to sweat out the toxins. This can be done in a number of different ways. Go to the gym, if you don’t have the energy for that, take a hot bath or spa, just make sure you have a water bottle with you to stay hydrated so you don’t get a headache. You will feel like all the germs are out of your system by the next morning!
