Y'all. The week before Christmas 2023, your girl was OUT for the count, you hear me?
It was the week leading up to Christmas Eve, and I was dragging my feet, procrastinating on everything, and couldn't understand why. I dragged myself through my workout and some other tasks, but by Monday evening, it became clear why I was so sluggish because flu symptoms had descended.
Christmas Eve was on the upcoming Sunday and it was clear: get well or there would be no Christmas. You know how it goes: cooking and baking to do, people to see. ZERO time to get sick.
So I'm going to share with you 7 ways I used to beat the flu naturally in 7 days!
1. Goldenseal Tincture: A Powerful Remedy
Goldenseal tincture, often overlooked, rivals antibiotics and detoxes your body at the same time. It's EXCELLENT for colds and flu. Get the tincture from the root, not the powder.
2. Oregano Oil: Nature's Secret Weapon
I squeezed drops of oregano oil on my tongue and underneath my tongue. This stuff is even more powerful than Goldenseal, though it may not taste great. But it'll have you back on your feet in no time.

3. Acupressure Points for Relief
I found these acupressure points on my feet and calf that helped relieve any digestive issues (remember, all health starts in the gut). I was amazed at how quickly it helped me feel more like myself! Do some research and get to massaging!
4. Hydration is Key
Drink lots of water to stay hydrated and help your body fight off the flu.
5. Rest and Sleep
Allow yourself to drift in and out of sleep at will and give your body all the rest it needs. Sleep is essential for a speedy recovery.
6. Stay Warm
One sign that I was unwell was how cold I felt. Make sure to wrap up warm and keep the heating on (if it's winter) to stay comfortable.
7. Regular Bowel Movements
It might be TMI, but having regular bowel movements is essential for your overall health, especially when you're sick. You'll get the good ones (lol) when you're hydrated and it'll help reset your system!
Recovering from the flu naturally is possible, even in just 7 days. By following these remedies and taking care of your body, you can get back on your feet and enjoy the holiday season or any other important commitments. Remember, always consult with a healthcare professional before trying any new remedies or supplements.
