With a New Year Comes New Energy
A new year brings new energy and possibility. Releasing the old that no longer works, makes room for the new. A story comes to mind about a monk who goes out on the lake to meditate in his boat. He cherishes his solitude and quiet. While deep in meditation, eyes closed he feels a sudden smash. He flies into a rage and begins to blame. How could anybody be so insensitive and careless. When he opened his eyes, he saw the boat was empty and had drifted off from shore. It was then he realized all feelings and reactions came from within. The “boats and people” are just who we project them on. This freed him to own and choose his thoughts and ways of being.
Electro-magnetic Fields (EMFs)
Low-level radiation is one type of EMF exposure and is emitted from cell phones, Wi-Fi routers, Bluetooth devices, computers, and even power lines. Some scientists report that this type of EMF exposure can cause sleep disturbances, including insomnia; headache; depression and depressive symptoms; changes in memory; and lack of concentration. You can reduce the risk by using the speakerphone function on your cell phone instead of holding it to your ear. Charge your phone in a different room at night, or put it on airplane/flight mode while you sleep. Products are also available that counteract harmful frequencies using healthy ones.
How Healthy Is Your Home?
Are the chemicals you’re using to clean your home actually doing more harm than good? The average household contains more than 60 harmful chemicals, and these can negatively impact your health and the health of your family. Cleaning with harsh chemicals can result in irritation in the eyes or throat, headaches, and even long-term effects like endocrine disruption (hormonal effects) and asthma. Consider using more plant and enzyme-based natural products that will get your home sparkling clean without sacrificing your family’s health. Natural ingredients can be just as effective, and provide the added benefit of being environmentally friendly as well!

Getting Stronger with Natural Movement
Doing lots of squats and heavy lifts alone won’t necessarily make you a good climber or proficient at carrying heavy loads. Our everyday natural movements are much more complex and require more skill than the exercises practised with a classic strength and conditioning approach. Natural movement training comprises locomotive skills such as walking, running, balancing, jumping, crawling, climbing, or swimming and manipulative skills such as lifting, carrying, throwing, and catching. It is about seamlessly incorporating fitness as a way of life to make you stronger in everyday life and help you deal with whatever life throws at you.
Winter Safety for Seniors
Winter can be a tough time for everyone, but especially seniors, with hazards like ice and snow putting them at risk of falls and injuries. Some ways that seniors can stay safe in the winter include: 1) Staying warm – wear comfortable, waterproof, warm clothing and accessories when outdoors to prevent hypothermia and frostbite. 2) Asking for help – if you have health issues, get help from loved ones for shoveling, snowblowing, etc. 3) Walking safely – wear boots that have good non-slip soles and use a walking aid, if needed. Walk slowly on icy, uneven surfaces and walk with a buddy!
