Is Your Indoor Air Healthy?
We all care about our family’s health, but have you considered the quality of the air inside of our homes? Allergies, illness, and long-term health can all be affected either in a positive or negative fashion depending on the quality of the air inside your home. According to the Environmental Protection Agency the air inside your home can be 2 to 10 times more polluted than the outside air. It is difficult for our immune system to keep up with the abundance of pollen, dander, smoke, mold, bacteria, and chemical gases that are locked inside. Consider investing in an air purifier to keep your home and your family healthy.
Connecting With Connie
Our mission is to facilitate healthy aging connected to community life for older Manitobans and their families. We plan to do this by integrating program design and delivery of front-line services through leadership, learning, connection and community engagement with our members who are committed to an age friendly path. If older adults are socially isolated it may place them at an increased risk of being a victim of crime, abuse, falls, or other hazards. Maintaining meaningful social connections is important across the course of your life and can assist us all in aging well. Connect to your local senior centre/group.
Give the Gift of Wellness

These natural solutions will empower them to dodge harmful chemicals. Extracted through careful steam distillation and cold pressing, only the purest essential oils are used in our products. Whether they want to boost their energy or supplement their diet, these solutions empower them to meet their wellness goals the natural way considering holistic mental, physical, and emotional wellbeing. Learn more about what essential oils are, how they work, their uses and benefits.
Get Back Into Hit!
Are you eager and ready to get back into your 30 Minute Hit routine? Since getting the green light to re-open, along with the guidelines of mandatory mask-wearing and hand sanitization, we implemented additional safety measures like checking in from your phone prior to your session. Inside the studio, there is lots of room to maintain that social distancing. Members wear hand wraps and gloves throughout the circuit so there is minimal touching of equipment. Staff is always there to clean each station between members. We are so excited to be open and are ready for our members to come back and for you to book your free trial!
