Well I am still sick, and I feel even worse than I did last night. I woke up, gargled with raw apple cider vinegar "with the mother," and then drank a little ACV because it is anti-bacterial and anti-microbial-- it makes my throat feel better. I then proceeded to neti pot twice on each side. It took me over 25 minutes and I still cant breathe very well and feel awful. My theory was if I took care of myself last night and went to bed early, like I did, I would feel better in the morning. This is not the case, as I said before, I feel even worse.
After my morning neti pot expedition, I drank my lemon honey water concoction and took my Ayurvedic herbs and waited fifteen minutes like I'm supposed to. I then made a delicious breakfast smoothie. It is a raspberry cacao peanut butter smoothie, yum! I try to opt for unsweetened soy milk when I buy it, but I can get it so much cheaper at Costco and the organic vanilla is all they had this time. I used about a cup of raspberries, 1/2 a serving of raw organic cacao, a serving of PB (2 T) and 1/2 of a banana. I am currently out of protein powder or I would have added it even though I really don't like it. I am missing my Team Weight Loss practice because my whole body is achy and I can't breathe. I will try to teach my yoga class this evening and I would like to attend the Uptown Lifepower Yoga holiday party, but if I feel like this, I won't be able to. We are going to have the food catered by Namste Cafe, and then we will share inspirational quotes with each other, so I really want to go and share.
I just felt sick for lunch so I just had some tea to try to feel better.It didn't really make me feel that much better, I actually prefer the standard Throat Coat tea rather than the above version. I skipped Team Weight Loss but did try to work out a little from home as to stay true to my goals. I worked out for almost an hour. I tried the Brazil Butt Lift DVD Bum Bum workout for the first time. Uh... yeah. His cueing is awful, but I would like to try it again when I am not sniffling and sneezing.
I went to teach my Yin Yoga class and it was very hard bc I am sick. I did go in the eucalyptus steam room at Lifetime for about a half an hour to try to feel better. I'm sure it didn't hurt.
When I got home I didn't feel very hungry but felt like I should eat something probably. I waited a little and then I was hungry. I decided to make some Faux Pho. I just tried my best to use what I had in the fridge. I can't taste or smell so I am not quite sure, but it was probably good, and I know it felt good on my throat.
I hope today I am better. xo
