Relieving Allergy Symptoms and Breathing Easy

In the wake of so many natural disasters at home and abroad, it is sometimes easy to think that the worst is over once the storms have passed. But the damage left behind by any disaster can continue to cause health problems long after the event has passed. One such cause of lingering health issues is mold, which often forms as a result of excess moisture or standing water. And it doesn’t take a disaster to produce mold; it can appear anywhere, at any time. People sensitive to mold – those having weak immune systems, allergies, or other respiratory problems – will experience a difficulty in breathing and shortness of breath. Mold infections can even occur in the lungs.


Ways to Prevent Mold
Inspecting homes for discoloration, water damage or mold growth
Locating and cleaning the source of any bad odor, such as a musty or earthy smell
Keeping kitchens and bathrooms dry
Fixing any leaks indoors

Don’t let mold compound an existing health problem or cause a new one. Prevent it from gaining a foothold in your home, and breathe easy.


Deep Breathing
Deep breathing is essential for health. If you are breathing correctly – for five minutes, five times a day – your shoulders will stay relaxed as you inhale. Your abdomen will swell on the inhale, and collapse on the exhale (using your diaphragm muscle).

If you find that you must set aside time to practice deep breathing, why not give the exercise a little more meaning? Spend your breathing time in prayers of thanksgiving and rejoicing. Or, if there are concerns you need to pray about, using deep breathing exercises while praying is a good way to not only get the problem off your chest and into Divine hands, but will also physically relax you as you breathe. Deep breathing will also clear your mind, allowing for emotional clarity. Try listening to inspirational music during your breathing to help foster positive thoughts.

Taking at least five deep breaths from your abdomen several times a day will reduce anxiety and promote a more positive outlook – equally as important to your health as exercise and nutrition.
