Sunny Tuesday...

It is a BEAUTIFUL day today...the sun is warm...the sky is blue...and I have a cold. More specifically I can't breathe. You see I am a nose breather...if I can't breathe through my nose I feel like I am being suffocated. So...it is day three of being on a quest to find something that will allow me to breathe. If I can't breathe...there are several things I cannot do! It is really hard to do yoga...since the core of yoga is breathing...it is hard to sleep...as if I sleep with my mouth open I cough...and that wakes me up. I have tried several decongestants...because as it turns out my sinuses and head in general feel like it is in a vice. To relieve the pressure I hoped that would also open up my nasal passages. As it turns out...I feel dry...I feel pressure, and I still can't breathe. I can't use cough drops because unless I have a severe cough I can't stomach them. They make me nauseous. So...any ideas? I still need to function. I have work to go to, classes to attend...etc.
