Remember Sesame Street? Remember the hairy guy with the long snout called Mr. Snufflelufagus? Who is not seen by anyone but by Big Bird?

Hahaha, no this post is NOT about Sesame Street. It is about the SNIFFLES! I just wanted a catchy title to get you to read this post as I waft nostalgia about some parts of my childhood…

OK, enough of that (though I can now hear the Manah Manah song in my head, aaargh!!!)

I AM SURROUNDED BY THE SNIFFLES!!!

Our eldest daughter has been going around the house with watery eyes while sneezing and our son Ian has been blowing his nose for days! There must be gazillions of these microscopic germs in just about every nook and cranny at home waiting for any of us healthy ‘uns to drop our defenses and BOOM….they will ATTACK!!!

So it was a blessing to get the Yoga Journal’s e-newsletter today which focused on yoga for immunity. I am reading this issue carefully and planning to take it to heart. Not just for me but for everyone. And as for our daughter and son who already have the sniffles? Well, the restorative poses suggested here could probably help….
