After a pretty stressful week which also interrupted my sleep/eating cycle, I can still report that I haven’t had need for my rescue inhaler in several weeks.
I also haven’t been taking my vitamins as I should be (not only for my asthma, but in general–I don’t eat as healthy as I should).
The only two things I have been doing faithfully are using Flovent twice daily as well as breathing through my nose and focusing on getting by with less air.
And things are going quite well!
How is your asthma doing?? Have you noticed a long-term improvement since using the suggestions in Karon Beattie’s ebook? Did you try the exercises she recommends?
I didn’t do the exercises; about the only thing of worth I got from that e-book that I can remember at this point is to breathe through the nose.
My asthma is fine, for the most part, and only seems to be noticeable when I have a cold or flu or whatever it was. I take an albuterol inhaler twice a day, and I still take an all-in-one vitamin daily to help with C and other nutrients that help control asthma and strengthen the lungs.
