Next in my daily practices, I use a Netti pot to irrigate my sinuses. I boil the water the night before, and keep it in a thermos. I decant the hot water and mix it with a little bit of non-iodized salt. When it’s slightly warm on my wrist and slightly salty to taste, I am ready to irrigate my sinuses.
I silently say the Lady’s prayer as I pour the water in my right nostril and the water exits through my left nostril. When I reverse the direction, I silently say my own revision of the Lady’s prayer, which is heartfelt and personal. I encourage you to utilize your own prayers, both formal and of your own composing.
