1Things You’ll Need:
Air Cleaners
Allergy Free Matress Covers
Dehumidifiers
Window Fans
Allergy-free Bedding
Hygrometers
Salt
Saline Nose Spray
Vitamin C
HEPA Vacuums
Bath Exhaust Fans
Step 1:
Get tested for allergies by your doctor, or use the process of elimination to pinpoint your triggers. The most common allergens are pollen, mold, dust mites, animals, medications and certain foods.
Step 2:
Identify the allergen(s) as specifically as possible.
Step 3:
Keep your windows closed and stay indoors as much as you can if seasonal pollen is a problem. Consider a ventilation or filtration system for your home.
Step 4:
Seal your mattress, pillows and comforters in allergen-proof covers. Dust mites, a common allergen, live in bedding.
Step 5:
Sleep on a latex mattress (as long as you’re not allergic to latex). Dust mites can’t survive in latex mattresses.
Step 6:
Install a dehumidifier in your home if you live in a humid climate. Dust mites, mold and mildew all thrive in humid environments.
Step 7:
Use an exhaust fan in the bathroom or keep the window open.
Step 8:
Buy a vacuum cleaner with a HEPA filter and use it often.
Step 9:
Avoid wall-to-wall carpeting. It is virtually impossible to remove dust mites from carpeting.
Step 10:
Eliminate certain foods from your diet if you suspect they are causing allergy symptoms. Learn alternative cooking techniques if you are allergic to common foods such as wheat, corn or milk.

2have you tried to smoke some medicinal herbs? Maybe it might help as some people have reported that it calms the body allowing them to rest!! Make sure you talk to your doc first
