What is One of the best home remedies for coughing?

Viral Infections are everywhere. Particularly at the start of winter, we were also under the weather. Those 2 weeks were tough. My side table was full of medicine, we were diving into the syrups, which made me upset all of  the time.
The irony was that still cough and flu were persistent. After trying All possible medications, nebulization, and totkas, I decided to take steam and it worked. Alhamdulillah!

How the steam works 

Breathing in steam helped us to relieve congestion, it loosened the mucus and made it easier to blow out from the nose.

 How to take steam ;


1, One big towel 

2, big Bowl of hot water 

Steam inhalation involved sitting with the head covered by a towel or thick blanket over a bowl of hot water with closed eyes.

 

Does a steamy hot shower help?



A  Hot shower also supports thinning the mucus and easier to expel. Steam opens the breathing passages.

How long should we take steam for cough?

 2_3 times per day,10 to 15 minutes for each session is recommended.

Be extra careful while taking steam.

·        Take a double bowl and covered the side with a rolled scarf.

·        A wide long towel.

·        1-Foot safe distance between the bowl and the face.

 

Alhamdulillah, we have recovered from sickness. May Allah keep us safe and healthy, Ameen

16 October 2022 One Magical Evening  It was a lazy Saturday as usual; therefore going to the park and writing a blog idea seemed to be mission impossible. As spontaneous plans have always been more entertaining. Without wasting a moment,we wore masks, pulled on joggers and headed towards The National Park.  People were loaded with BBQ grills and picnic supplies.My hungry soul had awakened. Whenever I visit the parks, I make a promise that next time I will come with tons of food, and the irony is that the promise has never been fulfilled.  The park was wide and properly maintained. bushes, plants, flower beds, lush grass, kinky tracks, aged thick trees and small hills were adorning the park. The tolerable temperature had been recorded in the area. Autumn is the best time for outdoor activities. I absorbed the clean fresh green wide environment where I'm free to inhale  H2O with my full arm open in an adventurous and Heroic style.  Visualisin...
