This was the week when every one who came in the office had Kleenexes pouring from their pockets.
The office was packed with people with stuffed up heads, nostrils flooding and unable to stand up for more than a few minutes at a time. This hack- and sniffle season is in full force, with all the coughs, sore throats and stiff muscles…
If you want to avoid getting sick practice relaxing techniques like Qi gong, yoga and meditation .
I find that colds don’t hit you as hard or as long if you are practicing Qi Gong.
Yes that’s right, de-stress can shorten the amount of time you suffer with a cold if one does catch you.

For centuries the Chinese have observed the changes of the weather and have dressed and eaten accordingly to prevent colds and flu’s. A Cold indicates that we are out of harmony with the change of seasons.
Keep Clean to avoid the cooties:
“Change affects the body and thus brings disease…..
The troublesome winds affect beneath the lung, brining about illness in this place….
Saliva and mucus appear: evil winds then bring chills, and this causes the illness of the troublesome winds”.
-The Yellow Emperor’s Classic of Internal Medicine
