When the temperature goes low, I immediately get the sniffles. I know I am not alone in this dilemma. My nose would get runny and I just can’t stop sneezing all day. Achoo! Thankfully, I have have this DIY bath salts recipe that is infused with a blend that helps me feel better after a sneeze fest – the Breathe Easy Essential Oil Blend.
