Allergies and Food Intolerances

Allergies and food intolerances usually result from our diminished ability to digest certain basic foods, such as milk, wheat, egg, or soy. Our digestive system may have weakened due to not having enough enzymes to break down the food, or some other reasons, including genetic factors. Once an allergy or food intolerance has developed, it is difficult for the immune system to correct itself and get back in shape. In time, the allergies may grow in strength and bring on additional allergies that cause increasing issues for us. Bioresonance can help to treat allergies and food intolerances swiftly and effectively.

HALT Emotional Eating

We are social and emotional beings and while we need food for energy, we also eat for pleasure, social connection, celebration and sometimes to avoid strong emotions. This is normal; however, problems can arise when food is the go-to relief for emotional discomfort. HALT, an acronym formed from: hungry, angry, lonely, and tired is a technique that involves becoming aware of the reason you are reaching for food. If hunger is not the primary driver, take a moment to pause and identify the emotion or situation at play. Then from that place of mindful awareness, you can choose to eat, or you can explore other options to meet your needs and soothe your emotions.

Finding the Courage Needed

There are 6 types of courage required to navigate a pandemic. Physical courage helps us keep strength, balance and resilience. Social courage gives us the ability to be yourself unapologetically when tough decisions need to be made. Emotional courage welcomes the permission needed to feel all our emotions without guilt or shame, learning from our experiences. Intellectual courage strengthens our back bone to do the right thing even when uncomfortable or unprecedented. Spiritual courage allows us to live with purpose and meaning with a compassionate heart with one’s self and others.

Flu Prevention is Key

For some, the flu can bring serious health risks. With flu season being right around the corner, prevention is crucial. Seniors and those with medical conditions, such as diabetes, cancer, heart disease, for example, may have a hard time fighting the virus. Whether you’ve been getting a flu shot for many years or you’ve never had one at all, chat with your local pharmacist. They can help you learn more about the available vaccine and additional methods to protect yourself. Get the facts on the flu and stay healthy throughout the season.

Clean Eating: Hot Chocolate

Store bought hot chocolate “packets” contain massive amounts of sugar and even hydrogenated oils (an unexpected, undesirable ingredient). You can serve this with whipped cream made of organic heavy cream with a little bit of stevia. 1/3 c full fat coconut milk (unsweetened) 2/3 c boiling water. 1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder. 1 tsp. vanilla. 15 drops liquid stevia. (optional) 1-2 drops peppermint oil, whipped cream, or cocoa nibs. Boil water on the stove. Add in all remaining ingredients. Stir well. Let cool a little bit, serve and enjoy!

Restless Leg Syndrome

Have you ever been told that you kick a lot during the night? Or perhaps your spouse does. This could be due to Restless Leg Syndrome (RLS). The nerve receptors in the bottom of your feet are hyper-sensitive, and this disorder is part of the nervous system that causes involuntary movement of the legs. RLS usually interferes with sleep and is also considered a sleep disorder. People with chronic diseases like Parkinson’s, diabetes, and peripheral neuropathy often experience RLS. Sleep is important, even more rest is important. So wear at least one Voxxlife sock to bed to calm the nerve receptors.

Supporting Mental Health

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a noticeable impact on the mental health of Canadians, and the federal government has taken some good initial steps towards addressing this with an economic recovery plan and the free Wellness Together Canada portal. However, about 1.6 million Canadians were living with unmet mental health needs before the COVID-19 pandemic. The Canadian Mental Health Association is working to expand and adapt its virtual services and supports countrywide, and is also calling on the federal government to take further action to support Canadians’ mental health needs.
