 In winter we welcome fluffy snow, warm drinks, crisp air, holiday gatherings, fuzzy socks and tall boots; however, cold weather brings with it some unwelcome gifts as well. Our winter health protocol requires a unique approach. While not a heightened allergy season, we tend to overlook sinus care, yet the cold weather may either irritate with excessive dryness or cause the nose to produce extra mucous, which in turn upsets the sinuses. Supplementary care may help to avoid infection, unwanted pressure, additional mucous and/or dryness. For the month of December, River’s Edge is featuring Baraka Sinus Rejuvenation Oil and Baraka Dry Nose Oil at 25% off the regular price. These complementary products relieve nasal passages. If addressing congestion, Baraka Sinus Rejuvenation Oil strengthens the immune through utilizing pure essential oil decongestants, without a carrier oil. The blend includes green myrtle, inula graveolens, rosemary verbenone, Eucalyptus dives, peppermint and spike lavender. In response to winter dry-out, Baraka Dry Nose Oil stimulates the cilia, soothes skin, and is great for use with air travel. This contains 1 ounce of organic sesame oil and the essential oils of cardamom, everlast, German chamomile and Roman chamomile. We love that they are organic and source their ingredients from local farms and cooperatives, maintaining therapeutic grade products. If already suffering from chronic sinus infections, Baraka Sinus Rejuvenation Oil claims to create long-term changes with consistent use over a 6-8 week period. For those seeking winter care, I suggest twice a day; however, some experience an excess of drainage when releasing the sinuses. Please note that some individual’s noses are too sensitive for the Sinus Rejuvenation Oil on the skin, they may need only inhale it regularly. Additional steps to alleviate sinuses include avoiding catching a cold to begin with, utilizing favorite immune boosting remedies like Throat Coat tea and local honey, increasing daily vitamin D intake and a general complex such as Premier Nucleo-Immune, as well as a utilizing a Neti-Pot. Simple life patterns of plenty of rest, hydrating with water (most should consume ½ of your body weight in ounces per day), and frequent changing of air filters. Keeping the nose and lungs lubricated with water intake will keep the nose decongested naturally. Seek to change air filters at least 1x monthly through the winter months to remove the collected dust, dander, and old pollen. When experiencing congestion, utilize steam from a hot shower and consider sleeping with the nose elevated above the heart to encourage drainage. Additionally, River’s Edge is offering 20% off of our Zum Line, (a bath salt blend of menthol, eucalyptus or peppermint assists to quickly alleviate congestion). We hope to see you in River’s Edge this month to take advantage of proactive immune care and perhaps “Scentsational” Zum gift-giving, ranging from laundry detergent, to soaps to cologne, as well as numerous stocking stuffers. May you are yours have a blessed holiday season! |  baraka products 25% off for month of December |
