Everyone wants to be happy — but sometimes it can seem so out of reach! Happiness is not always an easy target. Maybe you are carrying around a sense of dissatisfaction, irritation or disappointment that does not go away. Where does this come from? Is it how you are living now or is it an old experience? Other people say “Let it go” – but how do you do that?! How can you change the story? Counselling provides a safe, encouraging place to explore your options, including how to start connecting with what makes you feel satisfied and joyful.

BC Home Buyer Rescission Period
Effective January 2023, the BC Government introduced the “cooling-off period” on real estate sales. This gives buyers three (3) business days to change their mind on a purchase, allowing them to cancel for no reason within those three (3) days. If implemented, the buyer must pay the seller 0.25% of the sale price. Today’s market has already cooled somewhat, with most offers including conditions that go beyond three (3) days. On the occasional, unconditional sale, the period must be considered by the seller. Questions on Real Estate? Contact Tony
Time to Nurture Ourselves
Oh, what a beautiful fall! As I watch the leaves drop I am reminded to slow down. Mother Earth is so wise. It is a time for nurturing ourselves as we ready for the winter months.

A therapy session in The Harmonic Egg can help. This uniquely engineered bio resonance chamber activates the body’s repair mechanism to promote profound relaxation and healing using the frequencies of light, colour and sound.
Comfort & Functionality Trumps Aesthetics
Many people want beautiful, white teeth when considering new dentures. Is this aesthetic aspect truly the most critical factor to consider? Are how they look more important than function? It is important to keep this in mind: Comfort and functionality must take precedence over aesthetics.

Once you have comfort and functionality in place, you can wear your smile with confidence. After all, no one can radiate a genuine, pleasant smile when their mouth hurts.

Inflammation: Good, Bad, or Both?
Inflammation is a crucial aspect of the body’s healing process, wherein inflammatory cells journey to injury sites, prompting recovery. Yet, chronic inflammation signs can be elusive – examples include abdominal and chest pain, fatigue, fever, joint discomfort, and stiffness (like in rheumatoid arthritis), as well as mouth sores and skin rashes (as in psoriasis). Turmeric presents a natural solution for pain and inflammation. Notably, curcumin, an extract of turmeric, is renowned for its potent anti-inflammatory properties, effectively alleviating pain, and dampening inflammation. Regarded as one of the most robust botanical anti-inflammatories, Good Habits Market takes pride in offering prime curcumin varieties, available as liposomal soft gels, or liquid.
Care Your Aging Loved Ones Need & Deserve
When it comes to planning for care, don’t wait until aging conditions become crises; proactively explore care options for your parents, grandparents, or aging family members. They deserve the best care, and your timely attention can make all the difference. Start by having open conversations about their needs and preferences. Research local resources, from in-home care to assisted living facilities. Seek advice from professionals and support groups. By addressing aging conditions early, you can ensure their comfort, safety, and quality of life. Let’s honor those who cared for us by being proactive in providing the care and support they now need.
