As women living longer, healthier lives, our faces often tell our life story before we are ready. However much we may want to turn back the hands of time, many of us want an alternative to painful, invasive procedures, possible scarring and injecting foreign substances into our skin. Fortunately, there in an effective non-surgical option that is not just pain free, but a soothing treatment that helps you feel so relaxed that you may just drift into sleep. Introducing Finer Face®, which uses advanced microcurrent technology. The current conducts a subtle vibration to the outer layer of the skin that stimulates and activates the fine muscles of the face. Like a “workout” for the face, an on-going series of Finer Face® treatments will tone and lift the muscles – reducing fine lines and giving you a more youthful look.

Traditional landscapers in Canada use gasoline-powered lawn mowers, trimmers and blowers, contributing to a whopping 5% of Canada’s annual air pollution! Until now, no one in Canada has addressed these concerns until Clean Air Yard Care was developed as Canada’s first Zero Emission Yard Care service, all powered from renewable energy. We use the sun’s energy to convert to electricity on our specially designed trailers, to power all of our battery and electric lawn and yard care tools. Using all of this innovative equipment means that we don’t require any external power source, don’t produce any harmful emissions, our equipment is quieter and we don’t spill any gasoline or oil. In fact at Clean Air Yard Care we are so earth friendly; we offset any emissions we create each year and are now also proud to become Canada’s first carbon neutral landscaper.

Seeking health and wellness often takes us OUT of the house … to the Health Food Store, a Naturopath or Massage Therapist and so on. But how many of us take the time to look inside our HOMES to make sure we are addressing the basics of health? The air and water can be very toxic. We battle chemicals and electromagnetic fields that hamper our sleep and wellbeing.   A Wellness Home embodies natural light, clean air, rejuvenating sleep, and clean and healthy water.  And this is just the start. I invite you to also examine how your home feels. Is it easy and functional to live in or is it cluttered and busy?  Do you find it hard to keep it organized? Does it allow you space to move and grow? Do you LOVE everything in your home?   Is it beautiful to you or do you just make do?Awareness is the beginning.

Matcha is a Japanese green tea that has been shade-grown, de-veined, de-stemmed and slowly stone ground into a very fine powder. Matcha isn’t steeped, it’s “eaten.” Matcha drinkers benefit from a higher concentration of antioxidants, vitamins, minerals and fibre than are found in any other tea, making matcha one of the healthiest beverages on the planet. To match the potency of antioxidants found in a single serving of matcha, you would need to drink at least 10 cups of brewed green tea. Traditional matcha is also very simple to make. Pour ½ cup of hot water over ½ teaspoon of sifted powder, froth it (with a traditional bamboo whisk or an electric milk frother), and enjoy! With zero sugar and virtually zero calories, matcha is the ultimate “zenergy” drink.

Turn to nature and cold-pressed, organic oils for glowing, healthy, clear skin. Soaps, alcohols, foaming products and strong astringents stress your skin, making it more vulnerable to skin problems, including acne. Consider adding oil to your regime to heal and balance the skin. Here’s how: Instead of soapy cleansers use an organic cold-pressed olive or jojoba oil to unplug sebum in the pores and reduce blackheads. Rinse with warm water, apply a thin layer of oil to the face and allow it to sit for a minute or two. (Adding essential oils like Tea tree or Lavender to the oil will act as powerful anti-bacterials.) Using a clean, hot washcloth, wipe the oil off your skin. Before bed, consider applying a thin layer of coconut oil (drying, anti-fungal, anti-bacterial), or a super healing oil like Tamanu oil to cleansed, warm skin. Wash off in the morning.

If you or someone you know suffers from migraine headaches, you know how big of an impact they can have. Changes in weather, certain foods, loud noises, bright lights or even sudden movements can trigger them. Sometimes they come out of nowhere.Yes, these are common triggers, but most of the time these triggers are not the actual cause of the migraine. In fact, there is usually an underlying structural issue at the head and neck that causes tension and pressure to build up in and around the brain. The Doctors at UC Life focus specifically on locating and correcting these structural issues, allowing the body to release the tension and pressure that cause migraine headaches. If you or someone you know is suffering from migraine headaches, it’s time to contact UC Life for a complimentary consultation to see if they can help.

When is the last time you considered your own financial health? There are many dimensions to financial health, including the amount of savings you have, how much you’re setting away for retirement, and how much of your income you are spending on fixed or non-discretionary expenses. Each person’s situation is different, for this reason, it is worthwhile spending some time in developing your own financial plan to ensure that you’re on track to reach both your short-term and long-term goals. People often fail to recognize the power of interest; For example, putting away $10.22 per month from the time you are 16 years old, with compounding interest, would result in $100,000 upon retirement. However, purchasing everyday items on credit and just paying the minimum balance each month may mean that you reach retirement carrying $100,000 in debt. Shedding unnecessary debt now with our help can steer you toward future financial health.
