During this global pandemic, the need for mental health support has increased fourfold. As an employee, the best thing you can do for your mental health is to be vocal. If you are struggling, speak up or use the Wellness Together Canada free resources. Waiting causes longer term damage impacting productivity and quality of life. If you are an employer, ask how you can support your team every day. Then, make or get a Mental Health First Aid kit and put it somewhere visible to demonstrate mental health is just as important as physical health. Include things like motivational cards, mindfulness colouring sheets, stress balls, breathing exercises and general resilience tips.

When it comes to your health and safety, it’s best to choose the right personal protective equipment (PPE). Use FDA/CDC-approved, hypoallergenic masks that are ideally three layers (with one of those layers being a vapor block). They should also have very low breathing resistance, an integrated nose bridge, and high filtration capacity. A high-quality fingertip pulse oximeter is an easy and inexpensive way to check your oxygen levels at home, which can help you monitor for low levels that may be a concern. Finally, ensure you are using hand sanitizer that has been approved by Health Canada.

In our modern-day environment where food is readily available it can be challenging to maintain a healthy weight. One tool that can help is the hunger-fullness scale. With this technique think of your hunger and fullness as a scale from 1 to 10, where 1 is starving, the hungriest you can imagine being; and 10 is uncomfortably, painfully stuffed. Ideally you want to eat when your hunger is between a 3 and 4 and stop when your fullness is between a 7 and 8. The beauty of this tool is that no foods are off limits. Eat what you enjoy to comfortably satisfied.

Colonies of good bacteria live inside our gut and help us to properly digest food and absorb nutrients, and they play a big role in overall immunity. However, these colonies can become depleted, and the decrease of these colonies can negatively affect the entire digestive system and result in constipation, abdominal discomfort, and suboptimal health. Good bacteria can become depleted for a number of reasons, including illness, gastric or intestinal absorption disorders, autoimmune diseases, chronic alcohol use, poor diet, antibiotic use, and the misuse of certain medications such as laxatives. VitaDophilus® is a convenient, effective way to naturally help support healthy gut flora.

Bioresonance therapy can be used as a complementary tool in healthcare alongside conventional medical techniques. While conventional medicine answers the ‘what’ of a condition or disease, bioresonance therapy can go further to help answer the ‘why’. It does so by looking at the root cause of the illness or condition using a more holistic approach. For example, it’s possible for bioresonance therapy to detect stress in the body that may not be revealed by things like blood tests. Rather than looking at a single issue or symptom, bioresonance therapy considers the patient as a whole, using non-invasive and drug-free techniques.
