GO EASY ON SODIUM<br />

Avoid a diet high in sodium to<br />

reduce tinnitus symptoms. The more salt<br />

you eat, the higher your blood pressure<br />

will be, increasing the sound of blood<br />

rushing in your ears. Try to eat a healthy<br />

diet rich in nutrients and you should<br />

experience less tinnitus symptoms.<br />

6<br />

CREATE AN ALTERNATIVE NOISE<br />

When you’re trying to work<br />

and tinnitus is making the silence<br />

unbearable, turn on some music! Try<br />

a peaceful instrumental arrangement<br />

that allows you to concentrate on your<br />

task at hand. Listening to instrumental<br />

music can relax you enough so that<br />

you can work. This type of music also<br />

distracts you from tinnitus symptoms.<br />

To get your mind off tinnitus, create<br />

an alternate noise to listen to. Recite<br />

poetry or mantras to yourself. Play a<br />

musical instrument. You can even chew<br />

gum. Singing and humming your favorite<br />

songs is always a pleasant way to get<br />

through your day and your mind off of<br />

the ringing.<br />

7<br />

DIVERT YOUR ATTENTION<br />

Try filling your days with things you like to do, or that you’re interested<br />

in. This will help you to keep your mind off of your condition. A lot of people<br />

let tinnitus ruin their lives, even though this does not have to be the case.<br />

You will feel better if you amuse yourself with entertaining distractions.<br />

Do not let tinnitus get you down. Find something you enjoy doing. If you are really<br />

having fun, you will not think about tinnitus anymore and you will not notice it as much<br />

when it occurs. You should not dismiss tinnitus as an insignificant issue, the constant<br />

discomfort could have a heavy toll.<br />
