Walks Give You Healthier Skin
Who knew the path to better skin and gut health started with a walk around the block? There’s a powerful connection between the gut and the skin. When your gut microbiome is balanced and inflammation is reduced, it often shows on the outside. People with healthier guts tend to have fewer breakouts, less redness, and more radiant, clear skin. Plus, increased blood flow from walking means better circulation to your skin, too, delivering nutrients and oxygen that help your complexion look fresher and more vibrant. So lace up your sneakers and step outside; every step is helping your gut, your digestion, and your glow.
Heat Exhaustion & Heat Stroke
Heat exhaustion can occur if the body loses an excessive amount of fluid. As your body becomes dehydrated, it overheats, and you may feel faint, dizzy, and lightheaded. If left untreated, heat exhaustion may progress to heat stroke, a life-threatening condition. At this stage, your temperature rises to a dangerous level, and you may no longer sweat due to extreme dehydration. A person suffering from heat stroke may be in a state of confusion and disorientation. If you suspect someone is experiencing heat stroke, press their Lifeline Personal Help button or call 911, get them out of the heat, and apply cold compresses on the body to lower their body temperature quickly.
Stay Social with Hearing Loss
Socializing can be challenging for individuals with hearing loss, but a few considerate adjustments can make a significant difference. Always make sure to get their attention before you start speaking. Talk at a natural pace—avoid shouting—and use pauses to help them follow along. Keep your hands away from your face so they can see your lips clearly. Focus on one topic at a time and inform them if the subject changes. Choose seating arrangements that allow them to see everyone’s faces clearly. Most importantly, check in with them frequently. If they seem confused, restate your message using simpler, shorter sentences to help keep them engaged and included.
Benefits of a Raindrop Massage
A Raindrop Massage uses essential oils to help with the realignment and detoxification of the spinal column. During a massage, the oils used on the feet and back help detox the body systems, improve emotional well-being, improve immune system functions and reduce stress and minor anxiety. Pure essential oils have the ability to enter our cell walls because their molecules are extremely tiny. This means that they can reach a virus that lives inside our cells and provide health benefits on a cellular level.

Travelling with Dentures
This summer, when you travel, be sure you are prepared for denture care. Bring a sealable container, a soft-bristle toothbrush, toothpaste, denture cleanser, adhesive, and any other items that you use regularly. If you have stored your old dentures dry, they will need to be soaked for up to 24 hours in water with a little Listerine in it. Always inspect the bathroom before you leave to be sure that you have everything. If you can find a denturist at your destination before you get there, you will at least have eliminated one concern. Contact them and note their hours.
