Drink plenty of water. The medical fraternity says 8 to 10 glasses a day are recommended for good health and fewer cases of migraine.
Meditation and yoga also play an important role. Certain practices, like pranayama, help to improve the flow of oxygen to the brain, thus soothing the mind and relaxing tension. Even a few minutes of breathing through mindfulness every day will work wonders.
Tulsi and Honey Magic: The anti-inflammatory properties of holy basil, commonly known as tulsi, help in lessening headache pain. According to Baba Ramdev, boil 5 to 6 tulsi leaves in water and then mix a teaspoon of honey into it. Have this twice a day. Besides soothing headaches, this remedy strengthens immunity and balances your system naturally.
Massage with peppermint oil: As soon as peppermint oil cools the head and increases blood circulation, it may provide immediate relief. Just take a few drops of mint oil and gently massage your forehead; instantly feel stress melt away. This easy trick could be your lifesaver when attacks of headache strike all of a sudden.
It’s very important to understand what triggers headaches. The top ranks go to mental stress and anxiety. Skipping meals, sleep loss, or overworking worsen the migraine condition. Dietary factors are important as well. Too much oily or spicy food, too much caffeine can trigger pain. Even dehydration can set off headaches, and that’s a reason to keep sipping water throughout the day.
