Your Path to Quality Sleep
Having trouble sleeping? Proper sleep hygiene involves habits and practices that support quality rest and overall well-being. Key elements include maintaining a consistent sleep schedule, even on weekends, and creating a calming bedtime routine. Your sleep environment should be cool, dark, and quiet, with comfortable bedding and minimal distractions. Limit screen time and avoid caffeine, alcohol, and heavy meals close to bedtime. Regular physical activity supports better sleep, but avoid intense workouts right before bed. Reserve your bed for sleep only—no work or scrolling. By sticking to these habits, you can fall asleep faster, stay asleep longer, and wake up refreshed.
Allergy Season Is Back
Many people suffering from seasonal hypersensitivities, such as head pressure, itchy eyes, and a runny or stuffy nose this allergy season will find only temporary relief, or no relief at all, from over-the-counter remedies. Alternative approaches, such as nutritional supplementation focus on more than just symptomatic relief. They enable the body’s ability to remove existing allergens embedded in the sinus tissues, thereby minimizing the histamine and inflammatory reactions. This stops the over-production of mucus that the body makes to try and push the allergens out. Take a different approach this allergy season – treat the cause, not just the symptoms.

Preventing Lyme Disease
Tick season is here in Manitoba. There are several kinds of ticks crawling around, including the Deer Tick which is responsible for transmitting Lyme Disease. Avoiding tick bites is the best way to prevent this. Here’s how you can keep yourself bite-free when spending time outdoors: 1) Wear closed-toe shoes, long sleeves, and pants. 2) Walk on pathways, staying clear of heavily wooded areas. 3) Use bug spray with DEET or picaridin. 4) After being outside, check yourself, children, gear, and pets for ticks, bathe, and put all clothes worn outdoors into a dryer for 10-20 minutes. If you find an embedded tick, gently remove it using tweezers by pulling close to the skin, avoiding squeezing the tick.
Stepping into Spring!
After a long winter indoors, there’s something special about stepping outside – the warm breeze, the sunshine, the feeling of being part of the world again. A walk in the park, a cup of coffee by the lake or even a gentle workout at the gym can lift the spirit.
But for many, getting out isn’t easy. That’s where Reliable Home Care comes in. Our health care escorts offer safe, supportive companionship – helping with driving, mobility and situational awareness so you can enjoy life with confidence. This spring, don’t just stay inside.

Gardening Tips
Though peaceful, gardening can be tough on your body. Start with light exercise to warm up, and stretch before and after to prevent strain. Use a wheelbarrow to move tools and supplies, and be mindful of posture—avoid twisting, bend your knees when lifting, and hold items close to your body. When weeding or planting, kneel on pads instead of bending from the waist. Choose sharp, ergonomic tools to reduce effort. Change tasks often to use different muscle groups and avoid repetitive stress. Take short breaks to stretch and rest. With care, gardening can stay safe, enjoyable, and pain-free.

Mother’s Day After Loss
Mother’s Day can bring up difficult emotions, especially if your mom has passed away. It may remind you of a cherished relationship that you can no longer celebrate in the same way. However, amidst the sadness, Mother’s Day can also offer an opportunity to look back on fond memories. As much as you may be hurting, try not to hide out and ignore the holiday. Instead, find a way to honor her memory, whether it’s continuing a tradition you shared, writing a letter to her, or gathering with others who grieve her loss. If you’re struggling with grief, reaching out to a professional can provide valuable support and guidance.
