Nasal Rinse Cup -
1 cup, (Banyan Botanicals)
A hygienic, non-porous, porcelain cup used for nasal and sinus rinse. Considered useful for individuals prone to nasal congestion.

- Cooling and soothing to the mind
- Beneficial in the treatment of headaches and migraines
- Alleviates anxiety, anger and depression

DAILY CLEANSING ROUTINE
Use your Neti Pot and related products every day to soothe and cleanse the nasal passages.
The saline solution
Rinsing the nasal passage with a properly mixed warm saline solution doesn’t burn. It is best to use a pure, non-iodized salt, such as Neti Pot Salt or kosher salt. The amount you use depends on how finely the salt is ground. Use a slightly rounded 1/2 teaspoon for coarse varieties, like kosher salt, and a heaping 1/4 teaspoon for finely ground salt, such as Neti Pot Salt. Stir it into 8 ounces of warm water, until the salt is completely dissolved. You can mix the saline solution in your Neti Pot.
If your tap water has an unpleasant taste or contains chemicals, consider warming some bottled water. If the water is too cool it may increase congestion. If it is too warm, it will irritate the delicate lining of the nose. Never use hot water.
Head position
 The key to the nasal wash is holding your head in the proper position. Lean over the sink so you are looking directly into the basin, then rotate your head to the side so that one nostril is directly above the other. The forehead should remain level with the chin or slightly higher. (Figure on the left)
Gently insert the spout into the upper nostril so that it forms a comfortable seal. Keep your mouth open and raise the handle of the Neti Pot so that the solution enters the upper nostril and drains out through the lower. (Figure on below right)
 If your head is rotated correctly and tilted at the proper angle, you can breathe comfortably through your mouth while the saline drains through the lower nostril. If the forehead is higher than the chin, the saline will drain into your mouth.
When the Neti Pot is empty, rotate the head so you are looking into the sink and exhale through both nostrils to clean them of excess mucus and water. Use a tissue to catch any excess mucus.
When both nostrils are clear, mix another batch of saline solution in the Neti Pot and repeat the procedure on the other side. Remember to adjust your head so that the saline solution flows freely out of the lower nostril. After the pot is empty, clear the nostrils as before.
After The Nasal Wash, You May Need To Do a Few Simple Exercises
You may need to do a few simple exercises to expel any saline solution remaining in your nose. Everyone needs to do the first exercise; others will also need to do one or both of the others. The first few times you use the Neti Pot, try them all. Form a habit of doing any which cause water to drain from the nostrils.
 1. Exhalations. Exhale vigorously through both nostrils while holding your head over the sink. Quickly drawing the abdomen toward the spine with each exhalation will make your exhalations more forceful. If you exhale into a tissue, be careful not to pinch the nostrils closed while exhaling.
2. Forward Bending. Bend forward from the waist far enough so that the top of the head is pointing toward the floor. Hold this position for a few seconds, then return to standing. Follow this movement with a few vigorous exhalations.
 3. Alternate Toe Touching.
Place your feet 2 to 3 feet apart. Raise the arms out to the side at shoulder height.
Slowly bend from the waist and bring the left hand to the right knee, shin, or foot (whichever you can reach without straining).
Reach up toward the ceiling with the right hand; turn the head gently and look toward the raised hand. Hold this position for a few seconds.
Come back to standing and repeat the movement to the left. Exhale vigorously through the nose.
When you’ve practiced this routine a few times, you’ll find it takes less time than brushing and flossing your teeth.

PRODUCT REVIEW
Ashwagandha is the Sanskrit name for Winter Cherry. It can be translated as "scent of a horse" for its characteristic odor. The name also alludes to its reputation in Ayurveda for bestowing the vitality and strength of a horse. Our Ashwagandha is certified organically grown in accordance with Oregon Tilth standards and the California Organic Foods Act of 1990.

How It Works
- 1. Prepare the saline solution with lukewarm water and fill the neti pot. Hot water is irritating and dangerous. Cool water is not soothing.
- 2. Tilt your head to the side as shown in the picture at the beginning of this article.
- 3. Insert spout of neti pot gently into the raised nostril creating a seal between the neti pot and the nostril. If it drains out of your mouth, lower your forehead in relation to your chin. Relax. If you are calm, the water flows right through. But if you aren't, it just won't flow. If you keep breathing through your mouth, relaxed, the water should gently flow through the nose on its own. There's no forcing it.
- 4. Raise the neti pot slowly to develop a steady flow of saline solution through the upper nostril and out the lower nostril.
- 5. During the process breathe through your mouth.
- 6. When you're done, exhale firmly several times to clear the nasal passages.
- 7. Reverse the tilt of your head and repeat the process on the other side.
