define('WP_CACHE', true); Everyone’s “getting sick” right now… but what if it’s not the flu? - Mila Earth Inc.

Have you noticed this?

Every year around this time…

Rain.
Spring break chaos.
Way too much screen time.
Taxes sitting there waiting.

And suddenly…

👉 Everyone is “getting sick.”

Runny nose.
Tired.
Brain fog.
Low energy.

We all say the same thing:

“I think I’m coming down with something…”

But what if you’re not?

What if this is actually your body saying:

“Hey… we need to reset everything.”


I’ve been thinking about this a lot lately, especially while doing our own taxes (yes… we’re behind too 😅).

And the truth is…

This time of year isn’t just stressful physically —
it’s emotional.

You’re reviewing your year.
Your money.
Your decisions.

What worked. What didn’t.

That’s not neutral.

Your nervous system feels it.

Tax Flu Reset hacks guide: better light, coffee, lemon ginger tea, magnesium soak, binders, castor oil, going outside

Now layer that with:

  • Blue light all day
  • Not enough real sunlight
  • Sitting more than usual
  • Less movement
  • More pressure

And your body goes:

👉 “Okay… we’re detoxing now.”


So instead of fighting it…

support it.

Here’s what I personally lean on during what I call the “tax flu” season:


✨ Light (this one is huge)
Morning sunlight + red/infrared light whenever possible
(even a heat lamp in the bathroom counts)


☕ Upgrade your coffee
Add creatine + MCT oil
→ steady energy, no crash


🍋 Real ginger + lemon tea
No tea bags. Just real ingredients.


🛁 Magnesium (daily if you can)
Bath or foot soak
→ nervous system support + deeper sleep


💆‍♀️ Move your lymph
Gua sha, dry brushing, or even just your hands
→ helps congestion + detox pathways


⚙️ Move your body (simple, not fancy)
Jump. Walk. Use your kids’ trampoline.

Bonus? It’s outside → light + fresh air + grounding.


🧪 Binders (underrated)
Fibre, charcoal, clay + psyllium, chlorophyll, zeolite
→ this is how your body actually eliminates


🌿 Extra tools I’ve explored over the years
Castor oil (topical + internal depending on situation)
Occasional parasite protocols
Even things like pine resin (natural gum spirits)

And yes… I’ve explored stronger things too at different times.

Not because I love extremes—
but because I really don’t like being sick.

Always: go slow, stay informed, trust your body.


💧 A little controversial
Small amounts of methylene blue have been explored for mitochondrial support.

Curiosity over blind use.


🍲 Don’t forget the basics
Bone broth
Vitamin C (whole food is best, but anything helps)


🌲 And please… go outside

Even in the rain.

This one alone changes everything.


So maybe…

It’s not “a flu going around.”

Maybe it’s:

✨ a detox
✨ a reset
✨ a recalibration


And if you support your body through it…

you don’t just “get better”

👉 you come out stronger.


If you need support right now, this is exactly why we make what we make.

Magnesium isn’t just a product…

it’s a tool for your nervous system in moments like this.

Always here for you 💛
