Practice breathing properly 

When your lungs are healthy your breathing will be a lot easier. So in order to increase the amount of oxygen in the lungs, and also to release carbon dioxide at home, you should practice sighing such as: inhale through the nose for 2 to 3 seconds, slowly exhale through the lips pursed for 4 to 9 seconds. seconds.

Gargle properly to clean throat and lungs

- Remember the principle carefully: Gargle, not gargle. Let the mouthwash down into the deepest throat area you can tolerate and rinse your throat clean. 

- Do not need too much solution in one mouthwash because it will be difficult to bring down the throat, each time just 5ml is enough. 

Remember the principle of gargling, not rinsing

- Put 3 mouthwashes down your throat, each time about 15 seconds and do not rinse with water. Each rinse for about 2 minutes. 

- Before going out or coming home immediately, rinse your throat and wash your hands thoroughly. 

- If you are in the epidemic area, rinse periodically according to the effect of each type of solution.

Eat a healthy diet

To keep your lungs clean, it makes sense to follow a healthy diet. In the family meals should add many foods rich in vitamins and minerals, this is the source of nutrients to help filter the lungs most effectively.

Do not use a lot of foods that contain preservatives, additives, canned foods or packaged foods. Eat more organic foods. And especially remember to drink at least 2 liters of water a day and should be warm. 

Clean the house every day

Dust and mold are the main causes of lung-related diseases such as infections, allergies and asthma. So please regularly clean the house, do not let dust cling to appliances, create a safe space for the lungs in epidemic days. 

Do not hold back the cough

Never suppress a cough, as coughing is a natural process that helps to remove mucus from the lungs. If the cough is suppressed, it will most likely lead to lung infections. So cover your mouth with your hands or a tissue when you cough, then wash your hands thoroughly with hand sanitizer. END=NAM MO SHAKYAMUNI BUDDHA.( 3 TIMES ).GOLDEN AMITABHA MONASTERY=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=THICH CHAN TANH.AUSTRALIA,SYDNEY.10/8/2020.
