Why Allergic Rhinitis Ruins Sleep Despite Meds?

BioCoherence Meditation

As you continue to breathe deeply and settle into this state of calm, visualize the acupuncture points that will assist in alleviating symptoms of allergic rhinitis and promoting restful sleep. Locate LU4, known as Xiabai, situated on the inside of your arm, just below the shoulder joint. This point helps to regulate lung Qi, encouraging a clear pathway for breath and alleviating nasal congestion. Next, direct your attention to ST42, or Chongyang, found on the top of your foot, in the depression just before the second metatarsal bone. This point supports the flow of Qi throughout the body, enhancing vitality and reducing discomfort. Now focus on Ha5, Jiache, located just below the eye, on the cheekbone. While this point aids in addressing facial allergies, approach it with care, especially near the face, as it can be sensitive. Shift your awareness to GV26, Renzhong, at the center of your upper lip, directly beneath the nose. This point is vital for clearing the head and promoting mental clarity, facilitating a sense of upliftment and relief. Finally, bring your attention to TV4, Huangshu, located on your lower back, near the spine. This point encourages balance in the lower abdomen, grounding your energy and supporting overall well-being. As you visualize these points, imagine their energies harmonizing within your body, working collectively to relieve nasal congestion, soothe an itchy throat, and calm sneezing. Embrace a feeling of balance, allowing these energies to flow freely, bringing your body back to its natural, healthy state. Continue to breathe deeply, feeling the relief wash over you with each exhale, and allow this sensation to deepen your relaxation, leading you towards peaceful sleep. Embrace the tranquility that arises as you align with your body's natural rhythms, fostering healing and restoration.
