Decreasing Debt-Related Stress

Consumer debt is at an all-time high and dealing with debt can be a lonely, frightening, and stressful experience. Some ways to manage debt-related stress include:
• If you are carrying balances on your credit cards, stop using them immediately and start making payments, starting with the card that has the highest interest rate.
• Talk to your financial institution to see if they have any suggested solutions to help you manage your debt.
• If your financial institution can’t assist you, select a credit counselling organization to help you evaluate your entire financial situation. This should be a local organization that does face-to-face counselling. Confirm with the Consumer Protection Office of Manitoba that the organization is licensed by the Province of Manitoba.

Need Cosmetic Dentures?

Teeth have three main functions: chewing food, lip support, and speech. The loss of your teeth can have negative effects on your self-confidence and your overall quality of life. Since your teeth provide structure and support to your cheeks, tooth loss can result in the sagging of your face. It is essential that your missing teeth are replaced as soon as possible. A new set of cosmetic dentures can instantly improve your appearance and remove facial flaws. Age is inevitable, but cosmetic dentures can help brighten your smile and make you feel young again!

The Healing Power of Food

Chronic disease is so common that we have grown into a society that considers disease ‘normal’. This decline in health has progressed more rapidly with each passing decade. The latest generation is the first to have a lifespan that is expected to be shorter than their parents’. It has been proven that correcting your diet to follow what is appropriate for your ancestral heritage allows your body to heal to its best extent and to have the best opportunity to thrive. It is as simple, and as difficult, as changing your diet! Call a Primal Health Coach to discuss your health transformation. Tom White, becomeHEALTHY.ca, EndDiabetesManitoba.ca

Winter is Coming

Staying active during the winter months can be difficult with our harsh Manitoba winters; But it shouldn’t have to be. Whether you’re heading outside, bundled up, or staying in, there are many ways to stay active. Outdoors, you will need to be prepared. Cover any exposed skin to reduce the risk of frostbite, and be sure to wear proper footwear to reduce to risk of slipping or falling on any icy surfaces. Proper footwear should have that extra tread just as a winter tire would, or supplemental attachments on the bottoms of your shoes will help dig into those slippery surfaces. If you’re staying inside, fitness or walking DVDs are helpful and remember to wear the proper footwear indoors too. If you have the internet, YouTube is an excellent free source full of multiple types of exercise led workouts or exercises. Carly Appler, CAT(C) InnovativeMedicalSupplies.com

Benefits of Homeopathy

Health doesn’t have to be a compromise and chronic disease doesn’t have to be your life sentence.
Homeopathy offers a holistic and complementary treatment for both chronic and acute diseases. It individualizes patient care by focusing on how symptoms of disease manifest in you, and not on the disease itself. Using homeopathy, chronic disease is manageable in a gentle, permanent, and rapid manner.
After taking an in-depth look at your emotional, physical, and mental symptoms, your homeopath will create an individualized treatment plan. This is typically the prescription of a homeopathic remedy specific to your case, but may also include dietary and lifestyle changes. Sundragon Studios, SunDragonStudios.wixsite.com/sundragonstudios

Detox with Distilled Water

Did you know that even some of the purest water on the planet is teeming with impurities? Fresh mountain spring water, for instance, is sometimes chock-full of microorganisms and heavy metals. Your tap water – which you probably expect to be safe – is also often full of chemicals. Trying to detoxify your body using water that contains these types of impurities seems a little counterproductive, doesn’t it? Distilled water revitalizes your body by flushing out toxins and enabling your body to function as it should. Try it – you may be surprised at how much more “alive” you’ll feel after increasing your daily level of distilled water! WorldOfWater.ca

Why an Organic Mattress?

Many bed manufacturers add fire-retardant chemicals and dust-mite deterrents that are toxic to humans. There is also the issue of off-gassing of polyurethane memory foam mattresses, which involves the mattress releasing volatile organic compounds into the air, affecting the quality of the air you breathe every night, which may pose health risks. In the past, you didn’t have to bother with organic beds because they were already organic; we, however, have built a society where most beds are not, and thereby pose health risks for ourselves. Up to a third or more of your life could be spent in bed! One of the most important factors in staying healthy is the quality of the environments in which we spend significant amounts of time, and so ensuring that your bed provides deep and restful sleep without detracting from your overall health is of paramount importance.
