A lady came to a yoga session last week and thanked me for the suggestion to stop a cold in its tracks. Well, it wasn't my brilliant idea - it is another yogic suggestion originating centuries ago - and as my mum said, if these old ideas didn't work they would have been phased out long ago.
Skip a meal and instead - sip on a cup of hot water in which a teaspoon of ground ginger, black pepper and cinnamon has been mixed.
It doesn't taste too bad - it sounds worse than it tastes - and it certainly beats the horrible headiness and chestiness of a cold for days on end.
And remember maybe a cold is your body's way of telling you to slow down. And if you don't listen, maybe your wise body will make you.
