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.

May is Better Speech & Hearing Month!
Did you know that the entire month of May is dedicated to Better Speech and Hearing? During May, the hearing care industry makes a special effort to educate the public about hearing loss. Helen Keller once said that of all her sensory deprivations, she most missed her ability to hear. She noted that while blindness kept her separate from things, hearing loss separated her from people. Hearing impairment not only affects your ability to understand speech, but it also has a negative impact on your social and emotional well-being, as you struggle to carry on meaningful conversations and avoid activities.
What is EMDR Therapy?
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy is a structured, evidence-based approach used to help individuals process and heal from trauma. EMDR involves recalling distressing memories while simultaneously focusing on external stimuli, typically guided eye movements. This dual attention process helps to reduce the emotional intensity of traumatic memories, allowing individuals to reframe negative beliefs. EMDR is widely used for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety, and other mental health conditions. Its effectiveness has been supported by extensive research, and many clients report significant symptom relief after a relatively short number of sessions.

Staying Social as a Senior
Staying socially connected is essential for overall well-being as we age. Regular social interaction can boost mood, sharpen memory, reduce stress, and even improve physical health. Whether it’s joining a walking group, attending community events, volunteering, or simply enjoying a regular coffee date with friends or family—connection matters. Even small interactions, like a chat with a neighbour, can brighten your day and make a lasting impact. If mobility or transportation is a challenge, consider virtual visits or phone check-ins. Staying social doesn’t have to be complicated—it just needs to be consistent. For more helpful tips, visit us at
Show Your Love & Appreciation
Flowers are a timeless way to show love and appreciation on Mother’s Day. Their vibrant colors and sweet scents beautifully express the gratitude we feel but sometimes struggle to say. From classic roses to cheerful daisies or elegant lilies, each bloom carries a message of care, admiration, and warmth. Gifting flowers is more than a tradition—it’s a heartfelt gesture that brightens a mother’s day and reminds her how deeply she’s cherished. Whether given in a bouquet or planted in a garden, flowers say “thank you” in nature’s most graceful language, making Mother’s Day a little more special and full of love.
