Stay healthy now that cold and flu season is here!

I hope you have not come down with your first cold of the season like I have! Usually I'm on top of self-care and nutrition so that I'm healthy and strong all fall and winter, but when you're too busy and/or under a lot of stress those viruses can sneak right in.  That's definitely what happened with me.  With all the focus on the news about flu season this year, I thought I'd point you to some of my previous articles about how to stay healthy this time of year. 

You could start with some internal and external Fall Cleaning, or Adjusting your Healthy Habits to the darker, colder days here in New England.  You might also be interested in my technique for Lowering Your Chances of catching a cold or flu, or how a Bodywork session  can help your immune system stay strong this season.  Also, don't miss these tips from the Mayo Clinic on how to avoid or minimize Seasonl Blues this year.
 
By the way, Reiki is not the only bodywork technique that works on your body's energy system to help you stay healthy. An Acupuncture (with needles), Reflexology (on hands or feet) or Shiatsu (my favorite) session can be just as helpful. If you're looking for a great practitioner, I can recommend a few colleagues of mine on the North Shore - just email me!
