This will probably be one of the more bizarre things you’ve ever seen but I highly recommend a Neti Pot - basically it’s something that looks like a little teapot, which you fill with water and a little salt and you stick it up your nose, tilt your head a certain way, and the WATER FLOWS OUT YOUR OTHER NOSTRIL!!

Why? you may ask - it flushes out your sinuses in a way simply blowing your nose could never achieve.

I’ve only just discovered this strange practice but you can find them in health food stores and online, and in the few days I’ve used one …

NO SEASONAL ALLERGIES! also no congestion of any sort really.

And this is coming from someone who relied on daily Flonase (the nasal spray allergy medicine) to get through two summers.

Plus it’s much cheaper than allergy medicine - a pot is like $15 and you just use salt water.

Also, no it doesn’t feel like water going up your nose, and I can’t tell you why that is…maybe because it doesn’t go up so far. I don’t know.

Yours,
A former seasonal allergy sufferer
