Reminder that washing hands can prevent the spread of germs, sickness, & disease

Image
 I had to take a picture of this when I was in the bathroom at the Fred Meyer in Tacoma, WA: This is a picture of the travel soap that I carry in my wallet/purse (see picture below). It's compact & perfect to use when you're at places that are out of soap.  See the picture (below) of what the soap looks like (when I open the container of the travel soap):

Back to school drive at Fred Meyer in Spanaway, WA is accepting hand sanitizer

Image
  Photographed (above) is the back to school drive box in the front entrance of their store (right in front of the cash registers toward the right when you enter the store). My visit to that store (the visit before my last), I donated hand sanitizer that I got from the Dollar Tree in Graham, WA (photographed below). The hand sanitizer is good quality (70% alcohol or higher is your goal for using any hand sanitizer) which you can see it says that on the outside of the packaging (see photo below).  It's also nice that it comes with a little lanyard clip for a student to clip on their back pack or keys. Obviously I want to be donating/want others to be donating hand sanitizer for this drive because let's keep the kids & our community sick free. 🙂

The Breather

Image
The Breather (BELOW) is a drug free way to exercise your lungs (I used several times a day when recovering from Covid). It has different levels of resistance that you work up to (similar to how one would when using hand weights when exercising). You can adjust the "inhale" and "exhale" resistance levels on the device to your comfort level. You have to wash the Breather daily with soap and water (I used dish soap & dish sponge) and you can wipe it down (however, letting it air dry like you would dishes, for example) lets it dry in the interior so when you use next you won't be sucking in water drops (when inhaling in & out). I could notice the difference when it was still wet on the inside (even when exhaling with the Breather if it was wet). There's a short video you can watch (paperwork including tracking your "reps" the amount of inhale & exhales [breaths] you take with the Breather to ensure that you're using correctly) that you ...

Leftover different types of lung teas I took to help recover after I had Covid

Image
To assist with the long-term breathing problems I had when recovering from Covid, I took a picture of the leftover different types of lung teas I still have in my pantry (BELOW). I liked the "Lung Soother" (tea that's pictured in the middle of the other teas) best with regard to taste especially after letting it steep for awhile (when the taste of the tea intensifies) it's still good. These teas were bought off of Amazon. The price of the Lung Soother tea was in the $6 range. I have this leftover Mucus Relief Maximum Strength tablets (BELOW) from when I had Covid. I don't think they did much, but when I checked the expiration on it today (it's still good until 3/2025). I won't photograph other healthy breathing supplements (tablet form) that I took as I no longer have and besides I honestly think the lung teas (which are supplements as well) are the most beneficial. Be sure to follow the instructions for the tea/(s) you choose to drink. I also won't...

You will be healed

The one and only time that I got Covid, it lasted SO long that I didn't think I'd ever recover. Of course I was consistently praying (I pray daily in general) and thanking God for NOT only having me be 100% be pre-Covid status today, but anyone else in the world who wants and needs to be as well. If you're familiar with Joel Osteen  (you can click on the "Messages" tab on his website & listen to any one of his FREE half hour sermons), (he's a famous Christian preacher at Lakewood Church, the outskirts of Houston, Texas) he's talked about in his sermons to ask God for things "today" (I think the reason why is because you're showing God how bad you want it & that you're ready to receive what you're asking for today & not some day, for example). I remember explaining this principle to a Naturopathic Doctor that I went to a couple years ago. One of the things I asked her to do was write a prescription for me to get massage (I ...

Covid cases at restaurants

Image
I  inadvertently came across this article online (I know it's not recent), but this is helpful information:  https://www.thenewstribune.com/entertainment/restaurants/tnt-diner/article244237242.html I signed up for their newsletter (yesterday) so I can't say yet if they still regularly send out restaurants that have reported having 2 or more Covid cases from workers at their restaurant (that was their requirements according to this article). If someone knows of another place we can go to see Covid cases reported at restaurants that's more current, please share in the comments section of this post. Thank you! 🙏😊

Another way to fight Covid & more

Image
I love using this Lysol laundry sanitizer that has 0% bleach and kills Covid, cold, & flu viruses. The one pictured below comes in that size as well as a bigger jug with a handle (similar to the size of a big liquid laundry detergent container) at Fred Meyer. I like the smell that this one pictured comes in which is "Crisp Linen." The "Free & Clear" scent in this same brand has no scent if you don't like scents and/or don't like the "Crisp Linen" scent. They also have the same product called "Sport" which I've never used. I wash all my laundry with this sanitizer. FYI (for those who don't know), you use it in addition to your regular laundry detergent. You put your regular laundry detergent (however you do) then fill up to the first line (this laundry sanitizer) on the lid with the lid and pour into the area in your laundry machine that has the agitator (that swishes your laundry) and then fill again a second time to that ...
