Get Bold With Your Cold--Three Easy Things To Do!

So you did everything you possibly could to avoid a cold this season, but it caught you anyway! Here are 3 easy, time-proven tips to get bold with your cold, and get rid of it-- fast.

1. Keep your Austin Air HealthMate HEPA air purifier running 24 hours.

Remember Austin Air purifiers are designed to kill airborne viruses and bacteria down to .3 microns. That means out of 100,000 thousand particles, the Austin Air purifier captures 99, 997. So if you’re sneezing and coughing, rather than having the germs float through the air looking for someone else to infect-- like your husband, wife, or children; the air purifier will take the airborne germs out of circulation for good.

2. Drink plenty of water.

Try adding a little flavored water or seltzer to your water bottle. This gives it a more interesting flavor, adds zero or very few calories, and encourages you to drink more. If you like your water cold, premix the fizzy water with regular water and store several extra bottles in the refrigerator so they’re cold and ready when you want them. If you like hot beverages try adding the fizzy water to a cup of hot water, or try just having hot water rather than tea, or coffee. It might sound strange, but try it. Again it adds zero calories, and is very soothing, particularly when you’re not feeling well.

3. Take time out and rest!

Easier said than done, right? If you can--take a day or 2 off to pamper yourself, do it. The time off will go a long way toward getting rid of your cold faster. If you can’t take an entire day, try taking a nap (if you work from your home), allowing someone else to pick up the children from school, going to bed a couple hours early, getting your spouse or significant other to pick up a to-go meal for dinner. Be creative. Find ways to allow yourself to rest and relax and allow your body to recuperate. Trying to work through a cold only prolongs the misery.

Good luck, and stay well!
