Quieting the Mind for Growth

Coaching is not advice, therapy, or counselling. Working with a coach is about supporting your self-awareness and building capacity to trust your inner wisdom to make the changes you desire. The Enneagram Personality Type System is one tool that can be used to deepen this self-awareness. The Enneagram works with your three centres of intelligence: your body, heart, and head. Our hearts are often protecting us from reliving past pains and our heads are often worrying about the future in a way that stops us from being in this moment. When we use our bodies to sense into this moment – we become grounded, allowing our hearts to open, and our minds to quiet – knowing what is needed.

Keeping Your Prostate Healthy

Maintaining a healthy prostate is important for managing conditions like prostatitis and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), as well as potentially reducing the risk of prostate cancer. Some symptoms that may occur with a prostate condition include urgency, frequency and pain during urination, weak urine flow, fatigue, back pain, and blood in the urine/semen. Naturopathic doctors can provide support to those experiencing prostate conditions (including helping to reduce some treatment side effects) through nutritional support (dietary journal and guidance for proper diet), acupuncture, Bemer Therapy (increases microcirculation), intravenous nutrient therapy, and sweat detoxification through sauna and hyperthermia.

Fall Raking Tips

Colourful fall leaves are beautiful but cleaning them up can be a chore! These tips may help reduce injury while raking. Wear proper shoes with good grip to prevent slipping, as well as well-fitting gloves to avoid having to grip the rake too hard. Use proper yard tools and keep from over-reaching to help prevent strain on your back. Switching sides with the rake allows you to share the work between sides. Make sure to bend with your knees when picking up the leaves and bags. Breaks are also helpful, so take a rest when you need it. Happy raking!

Harnessing Neurodiversity: ADHD Coaching

Why is ADHD Coaching so effective? Neurodiverse brains are wonderful and unique, but they find the same skills and tools that neurotypical people use are not effective for them. An ADHD Coach has extensive training and experience understanding the nuances of neurodiversity. We coach from a place of understanding and expertise, unlike other life coaches or practitioners who lack that knowledge base. In coaching, I work with my clients to identify their strengths and help them create solutions and build skills that solve their unique challenges. Having a coach that understands where you’re coming from makes all the difference.

Reimagine Mobility

A mobility scooter is a lifestyle-enhancing vehicle that can help you rediscover a sense of freedom and mobility. To get the most out of your scooter, you need the right one for you and your lifestyle. Things to consider include: – Can it be transported by car, taxi and plane? – Does it come apart and go back together easily? – Are the parts light enough to lift? – What are the weight restrictions? Take into account the things that you transport on a regular basis not just your own weight. Mobility scooters may be covered by extended health care plans.
