Let's plan your victory over Coronavirus and build confidence in your ability to combat infection. Fear is one of the most undermining emotions, and harbouring worry or concern about Coronavirus is only going to make you more susceptible to infection. The best way to combat fear in the shape of Coronavirus is to build knowledge and confidence in your body to defend you against it.
Fear lives in the body
In Chinese Medicine, fear is stored in the Kidneys and worry is stored in the Lungs. Treating these areas not only helps you overcome your fears and build your confidence — more importantly, it strengthens your body's natural defences against infection and lung-related conditions.
Your plan, in two parts
Let's have a closer look at your plan to support your body through this period. It is important to be fearless and confident in your approach across two things:
1. Building your immunity. The everyday practices that keep your defences strong before any challenge arrives.
2. Responding early to acute infection. Knowing what to do at the first sign of symptoms so you can support your recovery from the start.
Acupuncture plays a vital role in both. It can support your immune resilience in the lead-up to cold and flu season, and it can support your body's recovery alongside conventional medical care when you do get sick.
Four ways to improve your immunity
My article Four Ways to Manage Pain and Fatigue elaborates on four ways you can improve your immunity:
- Be more active
- Nourish your body and microbiome (good bowel bacteria)
- Purify your environment
- Be at peace
When infection is acute
My article Relieve and Prevent Acute Infection elaborates on an effective approach to help support your body's recovery from Coronavirus and any other infection.
