🌿Respiratory Health Series (Part 2): Opening the Airways Naturally

🌿Respiratory Health Series: Opening the Airways Naturally

💨 Breathe Better, Live Better 🌿

When our airways feel restricted—whether from asthma, allergies, or simply humid weather—it can feel overwhelming. The beautiful truth is, God designed herbs, foods, and simple practices that can help us open the airways and improve oxygen flow.

✨ Foods that support open airways

  • Ginger, garlic, turmeric, and onions: natural anti-inflammatories
  • Citrus & berries: rich in vitamin C to strengthen lung function
  • Leafy greens: oxygen-rich and detoxifying
  • Warm fluids: keep airways moist and mucus moving

🍵 Herbs & teas that soothe and open airways

  • Peppermint tea – menthol naturally opens nasal passages
  • Ginger & turmeric tea – eases inflammation in the respiratory tract
  • Mullein tea – calms irritation and supports clear breathing
  • Licorice root tea – coats and soothes, but ⚠️ do not use longer than 7 days and avoid if you have high blood pressure

🌬️ Lifestyle support

  • Breathing exercises to expand the lungs
  • Steam inhalation with a drop of peppermint or eucalyptus oil
  • Keep indoor air clean and humidity balanced

💛 Remember: God is the very breath of life (Genesis 2:7). Let’s honor that breath by nurturing the lungs He gave us.
