Bioenergetics & Women’s Health

Every year at this time women are reminded to focus on their health, but in reality, women should be taking charge of their own physical and mental well-being every day. A good first step is to find out how well your body is functioning so you can target any areas that need assistance. One of the best ways to accomplish this is through Bioenergetics. This non-invasive computerized analysis determines underlying imbalances in organs and tissues that could contribute to unwanted health conditions. If an imbalance is found Bioenergetics can then help to stimulate correction of the affected organ or tissues to help your body function at its best.

What is Biofield Tuning?

Biofield Tuning is a sound therapy method that uses the frequency produced by tuning forks for targeted nervous system relaxation. Biofield tuning helps to alleviate a wide range of energetic, emotional, and physical issues. It is effective for anxiety & depression, energy renewal, fear & grief, adrenal fatigue, and more. Working on your body and in the area around your body, your biofield, I use the steady, coherent vibrational frequency of a tuning fork to assist your body to “tune” itself by relaxing, softening, settling, and releasing tension.

To Do or To Be – That Is The Question

Come fall, our to do lists become expansive and over -flowing beckoning us to address that which we’ve put off for some time in order to enjoy an expansive summer. It can be overwhelming yet oddly comforting to check off each to do item on our list only to discover there is no shortage of more. To be lists are equally important as they allow us to shift out of our heads and spend the quality time with ourselves, nature, music, creativity and the people that fill our hearts. This calms down our nervous system. Taking the time daily to do & to be, creates harmony and balance in our lives.

Changes of the Season

The leaves are turning, the wind is brisk, and autumn has come. With it comes the sense of quiet that settles in like leaves on the forest floor. It is important that we do not settle back into old habits. Keeping pace with new hobbies and social activities, which are known to reduce the risk of Alzheimer’s, cardiovascular disease, arthritis, and osteoporosis, is important for long-term health goals. Don’t let the change in season stop you from being your best! Comfort Keeper caregivers can help you stay active and maintain independence.

Stress-Free Moving

“Home is where the heart is…even if you can’t remember which box you packed it in!”
We can relate to the stress of moving. Not only does it mean uprooting your life, but if the move is to a smaller residence, a huge part of the work is downsizing a ton of possessions that have accumulated for years, perhaps even a lifetime. If you need to move, and just thinking about it keeps you up at nights, our team will take a mountain of anxiety off your shoulders and get all of it done for you; professionally, safely, and quickly.

Real Estate “Dual Agency”

Why doesn’t the agent want to show me their listing? It’s not because they don’t want to, but rather because they’re not able to provide agency services due to regulations set by the BC Financial Services Authority. Since 2018, licensees have not been able to represent both sides of the transaction (seller and buyer), otherwise known as “dual agency.” The regulator, BCFSA, recommends consumers seek their representation. The idea is that if you were ultimately going to have your agent represent you, it makes sense to get them involved from the start. We’d be happy to chat about your real estate needs.

Chiropractic Care & Cold/Flu Season

Chiropractic care can play a crucial role in boosting your natural immune system this cold and flu season. The spine houses the nervous system, which controls and coordinates the body’s functions, including the immune response. Misalignments in the spine can disrupt nervous system communication, potentially weakening the immune system. Chiropractic adjustments help correct these misalignments, enhancing nerve function and supporting optimal communication between the brain and the body. Improved nervous system function can promote better immune response, helping the body fight off infections and diseases more effectively. Regular chiropractic care, combined with a healthy lifestyle, can naturally strengthen your body’s defense mechanisms.

Principles of Happier Aging™

We want to change the perceptions of aging. We believe that getting older doesn’t have to feel sad or helpless; instead, aging is something worth celebrating. As Atul Gawande wrote in his book, Being Mortal, “Our ultimate goal, after all, is not a good death but a good life to the very end”. Through our principles of Choice, Belonging, Respect, Autonomy and Purpose, we live Happier Aging. Happier Aging, at home, is our philosophy of care: for our clients, their families, our people and everyone we meet.
