Silencing your inner critic takes time and practice, especially if yours has been taking centre stage. Maryse Cardin, author and motivational speaker from www.selftalklove.com, talks about how it is important to stop and take notice of what we are telling ourselves. Is what you’re saying encouraging, complimentary, or something you would say to your loved ones? If not, it’s time to turn the station and “switch the song.” Remember a happy time in your life. A time that fills you with joy. Maryse indicates that when we stop catastrophizing and instead tell ourselves what we are grateful for, we can soothe our systems.

“I need to sell for more than it’s worth because I need the money.” Everyone deserves to get top dollar on the sale of their home, but some seek more for various reasons. Moving to an expensive retirement home, moving to a pricier area, and having to pay off debt. But does your buyer care? Buyers pay what they feel the house is worth (often trying for less) and won’t pay more just to help out a seller. Even if they did, a bank appraisal would likely prevent a sale. Would you pay more because the seller needs it?

Super Patch technology uses a special pattern to help you go from feeling blah to HUZZAH! When your skin comes in contact with the Super Patch ridge pattern, it triggers a response in the brain’s neural networks that helps you tackle your daily problems, head-on. The brain and nervous system processes that stimulation and a waterfall of wellness responses happen, from more energy to enhanced balance and quality of life. The effect is immediate, so you focus less on overcoming life challenges and more on living a happier, healthier life. The patches are designed to be safe and easy-to-use, every single day.

“Isn’t it nice to go visit Dad? I wish I could see him more, but he seems to be managing.” What does managing look like to a senior? They manage to get up, get dressed, and get fed.
