you can try this method to decongest the stuffy nose:
exhale normally, pinch your nose and hold your breath for 30 to 40 seconds or longer if you can. Wait 2 or 3 minutes and repeat the procedure 2 or 3 more times in the same manner. This is Buteyko method and it always works like a charm for me when I have a cold or the flu. When the nose is unblocked, I wash the nasal cavity immediately with saline to remove all the mucus (you can try sinucleanse).

The only things that really helped me was when my Dr. told me about a sinus wash that will kill bacteria.
you need

distilled water
sea salt
liquid chlorophyll and colloidal silver from the health food store.
in a glass mix 1/4 cup water with a pinch of salt and heat to body temperature.
add 5 drops each silver and chlorophyll and mix.
using a large dropper (like one used for infant medication) drop 2 full droppersfull into one side of the nose while laying down.
Turn the head and let it drain out the other nostril. Be sure to have paper towels handy.
The silver kills the bacteria and there are several hundred kind that can live in the sinus cavities and anti biotics don’t get rid of them all.
Do this twice a day for a week, mixing up the mixture fresh each time.
Then do it once a week for maintenance.
There is nothing in this that will hurt you, and it cured me.
I do not have to take claritin, or antibiotics anymore.
best wishes

what helped me get rid of my allergies and sinus infections was echinacea tea. It was a miracle worker! I would also say that congestion and sinus infections are caused by low immune system function, and can be solved by healthier eating, exercise, and getting rid of possible allergens. A hepa air purifier is an excellent investment, as well as a humidifier. Hope everything works out!

BreatheRite Strips are amazing. I use them regularly as I am allergic to everything and more likely congested than not. The strips will aid in breathing during the night. For congestion, try ginger, ginger tea, echinacea, stinging nettles and garlic (natural antibiotics). Oregacyn is also pretty good. And of course, the old stand by Vitamin C as much as possible. I would advise against Orange Juice as the sugar content will lead to more congestion; just take vitamin C tablets or try EmergenC. Feel Better.

I have taken a product from Young Living called Valor for public speaking. It truly works. I did not have the anxiety that I normally would talking in front of 300+ people. Valor is an essential oil and would not be without it. I just put a couple drops on my hand and then apply it to the back of my wrists.

I had problems like this for awhile. Go to any drug store (walgreens CVS etc) and buy a nasal flush kit. its a bottle that you put warm water and a slaty solution in and spray up your nose. It might be umcomfortable at first but it relieves the congestion and cleans the sinuses. dont expect relief right away. use it for about a week every night and see.Also avoid sugars and dairy products as they produce mucus and flem whic causes congestion. I ended up having a nasal tumor and the doctor has me flushing everyday to keep my sinuses from forming the waste and tumor again. good luck.

The B vitamins are calming, and alleviate anxiety. Also, green tea, before noon, has an energizing and calming affect. Stay hydrated – to give your brain a chance to do its best work, and take ten deep breaths in through your nose, then out slowly through your mouth. And 8-10 hours of sleep, rising and sleeping at the same time, helps the brain work at its optimum as well. It works for me – enjoy the experience. Have a healthy and happy leap year!

hey! i don’t think natural remedies will really help u get over ur shyness and fear of public speaking. just think of having fun and being urself. i know its hard becuase i was pretty shy b4 2. just act like u would at ur own house and just know what ur gonna say, and just maybe having a nic hot shower before doing things like that or sniffing lavender oil can help.
