How To Enjoy The Outdoors When Your Allergies Are Trying To Take Over

I’m sharing this post as part of a sponsored series for Socialstars. The honest opinions are my own.

We are a family who loves to be outdoors. If the weather was perfect we would love to be outside all day, every day.

Spring Fun

Summer Family FunWe are also a family dealing with allergies. Dave and Logan both are affected by pollen, grass, and hayfever type allergies. I haven’t figured my allergies out yet, every time I think I have it narrowed down something else pops up. While Kora doesn’t seem to have any allergies, she does get a number of colds which I’m still trying to determine whether they are actually allergies or not.

While we love being outside, unfortunately all of the things that make the outdoors so lovely, are many of the same things that cause people with allergies to suffer.

No matter what allergies we are dealing with, we still find that maximizing our time outside makes us feel better. I know that fresh air and sunshine always does me good, so I every day I try to schedule as much outdoors time as I can.

It can be tough though to fully enjoy the outdoors when your allergies are trying to take over. Did you know that over 50% of people with seasonal allergies suffer coughs and itchy throats too? That’s us. One of my most common allergies complaints is a sore throat and Dave’s is a cough.

How do we deal with it and still enjoy the outdoors? I’ve found there’s an easy way to get an extra drop of soothing relief. I just pop a Ricola herb drop and drop that sore throat and cough and I’m able to fully enjoy the outdoors.

RicolaI like to keep a bag of Ricola in my tote that I take everywhere so anytime allergies that cause a sore throat or cough pop up, I’m ready.

Ricola On The GoI was interested to learn that every Ricola drop has their Swiss herb blend that goes to work quickly and naturally to relieve an itchy throat and cough caused by allergies.

About Tesa Nicolanti

I’m Tesa, the mom behind 2 Wired 2 Tired, a blog named after our two kids born a year apart, who my husband and I always said were too wired, leaving us too tired. :) Since 2009, I’ve shared tips on family, travel, and tech, with coffee always in hand. Now, as the kids are in college, 2 Wired 2 Tired has evolved. These days, I’m wired for trying new things, sharing what’s working in our house, what’s coming with us on vacation & what I’m loving lately. 🏠✈️💖 And I’m still tired of bad gadgets and boring trips! I'm glad you're here and I'm excited to bring you the best in family, food, travel, and tech.

Hey there! I’m Tesa, the mom behind 2 Wired 2 Tired. The blog originally got its name because my husband, Dave, and I had two kids born a year apart. Back then, we always joked that “the kids were too wired and we were too tired.”

Fast forward to today—those two kids are navigating college life (how did that happen so fast?!), and our house is a little quieter. But the story didn't stop there and the definition of 2 Wired 2 Tired has evolved.

These days, I’m wired for trying new things, sharing what’s working in our house, what’s coming with us on vacation & what I’m loving lately. 🏠✈️💖 And I’m still tired of bad gadgets and boring trips!

So welcome! I'm glad you're here and I'm excited to bring you the best in family, food, travel, and tech.
