It is important to remember that you are a key part of controlling your asthma. Here are a few ways you can take an active part in your treatment:

– Try keeping an asthma diary to track your specific asthma triggers.

– Be sure to keep all of your health care providers fully informed. This includes talking to them about any medications or herbs you may be taking, as well as any changes in your symptoms.

– Follow your practitioner’s recommendations for self-care. These might include exercises such as Qi Gong, yoga, dietary changes, or stress-relief measures such as meditation.
