We all want more satisfying relationships. Don’t get me wrong, you are a wonderful partner! Yet, we all have automatic ways of being in a relationship. Being different means choosing to act differently. Like, when your spouse is sad, you quickly start “operation cheer up”. A different choice in this situation might be to sit quietly, and be with them and their pain. Another option might be to ask them what they need right now. We start small, with neutral situations, so you can practise and be successful. This is the way to grow your courage with more impactful, but uncomfortable choices.

Rooted in Song
Song has grown with us through life’s many chapters. As babies our mothers sang to soothe and comfort, to get our attention and lull us to sleep as mother figures have done for generations. As toddlers we mimicked what we heard and began bonding with our families through singing songs about the world around us, silly songs, and songs to soothe us after bumps and bruises. These musical habits followed us as we aged to accompany skipping, discovering and courage. Many stepping stones are crossed in life which take us to new places, but our need for song is constant.
Plan (Far) Ahead to Protect Loved Ones
Over the course of your life, you’ll need to take steps to protect the financial wellbeing of your loved ones for after you’ve passed away. Consider pre-paying for your cemetery and funeral arrangements. You’ll offset future price increases associated with burial or cremation and just as importantly, you’ll spare you’re grieving loved ones the necessity of planning your arrangements. None of us can predict the future, so it’s important to do whatever you can, as soon as you can, to protect your loved ones.
Overcoming Holiday Season Overindulgence
If you’ve overindulged this holiday season, here are some great tips for getting back on track! 1) Practice modified intermittent fasting – start by eliminating nighttime snacking to help support fat burning and better sleep. 2) Increase fibre in the diet for good colon health and binding fat-soluble toxins so they won’t get reabsorbed. 3) Start your day with some warm/room temperature water infused with citrus, cucumber, herbs, ginger, etc. to support fluid intake and liver/kidney health. 4) Practice yoga, Pilates, Qi Gong, or Tai Chi in the mornings to breathe and get blood/lymph moving. 5) Do a sugar detox.

Live Blood Analysis
Darkfield microscopy is a form of live blood analysis that allows the practitioner and patient to have a detailed look at the individual’s health. A singular drop of blood gets suspended under the microscope and projected onto a screen. From there you can see and analyze what your blood consists of and view any deficiencies or abnormalities that may be present. Darkfield Microscopy shows nutritional deficiencies, gut problems, underlying infections, bacteria presence, autoimmune reactions, and much more. Microscopy was invented almost 400 years ago and has expanded through technology such as video cameras and monitors, that now allow for immediate, beneficial visual information.
A New Year of Care
Has your aging loved one had: a minor or major fall, noticeable weight loss, clutter accumulation in the home, missed appointments or overdue bills? Now is the time to discuss plans and consult with professionals. Being a family caregiver can be stressful. Often, we are balancing care for an aging loved one with the needs of our own children, grandchildren, work, or other commitments. Care needs can be relentless. As you begin a new year, consider how professional in-home care for an aging loved one will improve their quality of life and support you as well.
