Recovering from a sickness is not fun, especially if your plans are ruined or there’s something else you could be doing. If your main objective is to get up from your bed and back to real life as quickly as possible, try these home hacks.
Let the Sunlight In
It’s free, warms you up, and helps your body fight off infections. If you’re too tired or sick to go outside and get some morning light, then the next best thing is to bring it inside your home at Hudson Place Residences. Open the curtains and let the light in, even if it’s indirect- every little bit helps! Opt for morning rays instead of hot noon to get the best results.
Ventilate and Recirculate Fresh Air
Indoor air can become too stale especially if you don’t open your windows for a long time. Allow fresh air to circulate simply by opening the windows on your living room or bedroom for half an hour or so. Incidentally, you can place an air purifier and let it do its thing, or an exhaust fan so there’s always fresh air coming in and stale air going out.
Fix Your Bedroom
Turn your bedroom into something that’s conducive to healing. Keep or hide all your gadgets, and try to eliminate any and all sources of noise. Opt for blackout curtains so you can sleep better at night. Adjust the home thermostat or AC to a temperature you’re comfortable with. Get a smart purifier if the budget allows for faster clearing of irritants and micro-organisms.
Create a Hyper Elixir
Drinking plenty of water while sick is old news- turn this practice into a more powerful version by concocting a ‘super elixir’, which could be a homemade electrolyte drink made up of lemon juice, honey, warm water, and sea salt. Mix well and enjoy!
