CULTIVATE YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH BREATHING BY SHOWING INTEREST IN WHAT IT LOVES - A HEALTHY IMMUNE SYSTEM...

I don't know about you, but I love breathing - in fact, I may love it more than my smartphone. Looking at the evidence, I would say that is definitely true: I do it everywhere I go, I include it in all my vacation plans, and I can't go a day without it. Considering the constant love and attention I give breathing, I feel like it is kinda ungrateful when it starts acting up. But then, I have to consider, don't I play a role in this situation, too? Am I entirely blameless? Then the guilt sets in and I start taking ClearLungs® Immune to nurture my relationship with breathing and ask for its forgiveness for my failures. ClearLungs® Immune is my go-to for when I feel my immune system is directly related to my damaged relationship with breathing. It is my chocolate and flowers, my surprise gesture, to let breathing know just how much I truly care.
