When people talk about the H1N1 virus, I detect Fear, be it on the mediia or the internet or just people around the city. No one wants a Pandemic! News reporting mortality rate is contributing to the cause of the fear! Negative Attitude and feelings are another thing I have noticed. Actually,that is why H1N1 is so newsworthy, because it makes one feel negative, fearful and anxious and paranoid. This in turn affects your natural immune system. If you read any posts in my blog, you know what's coming next, don't you?
Energy Medicine strengthens the Immune System.Your Immune System will be enhanced by some of the energy techniques - a sample is given on the posts written a few weeks ago. However, some common precautions from allopathic medicine also helps. They are
1. Handwashing, after touching doors, chairs, knobs in public. Cleaning all frequently touched areas in your house.
2. Use the proper way when sneezing.
3. Drink at least 8 glasses of water. Cut down on sweet drinks and caffeine!
4. Increase amounts of fruits and vegetables and make sure they are washed thoroughly.
5.Have enough rest - 8 hours of sleep!
6.Stay away from crowded places, especially if you have some symptoms.
There are many others. Perhaps my readers would like to share.
Next week, I will like to share how anxiety, fear and paranoia, breaks down the immune system.

I don't know if it this helps everyone but I like to be more even more active during the flu season. I find raising my body temperature and getting a good sweat really helps prevent those nasty flu bugs. As well, the endorphins make me feel great and energized.
I always find that additional exercise during the cold and flu season helps me. Not only does it make me feel more energized and happier but I have noticed that I can fight off bugs better. Whenever I start getting a sore throat or any early signs of a cold, I find exercise helps.
Great post and definitely need considering all the fear about H1N1.
Nathan, I wish I had more readers like yourself. Thanks - Yes exercise does help? Which exercises are more beneficial to the Immune System? That will be in my next post!
Agape-thanks for the info. The stress caused by fear is so detrimental to one's health. It's so vital to maintain a relaxed attitude.
Exercise is definitely the best way to keep your immune system healthy. I walk my dog everyday and cycle most days too and I've only been ill once in the last two years. When I was less active I used to get ill a lot more often.
