Episode 17: Natural Remedies for Seasonal Allergies

Recipe: Allergy Cleansing Stock

Seasonal allergies got you down?

Allergies are very common in our modern world, but they are not normal!

As we’ve talked about in the last few episodes, energy is moving upward through our bodies during spring. If your body has any blockages, physical or emotional, they’re going to show up now because the energy is moving. 

This can proliferate as sinus conditions, cold/flu, headaches, migraines and allergies.

If you suffer from allergies, there are many ways to relieve the symptoms, but the real work is trying to heal and address the root cause. 

Learn so much more about this in the new episode!

And remember, nature provides everything we need to survive and thrive. We just need to make sure we use it! 

Spring detoxing might not be all fun and games, but when you clear with this spring energy it feels so good, just like spring cleaning your house! 

And with summer around the corner, if we take this time to clear out what no longer serves us, we will reap the fruits of our labor!

So NOW’s the time!
