In the current global crisis we face, our air quality is top of mind and yet just as frustrating as it’s always been to try and improve. Traditional dry filter systems for air purification and cleaning become choked with pet dander, dead skin cells, dust mites, pollen and other bacteria far too quickly to be time or cost-efficient. So what to do? Rainbow Systems® has the answer, using wet filtration to remove pollutants from our air. Powerful airflow, from a 1.5 horsepower motor, pulls our airborne particulates, allergens, dust and other man-made contaminants into the water basin, where they are trapped in a swirling water bath. Fresh, water-washed air is then returned to your home using only the power of water®! Nature cleans our air naturally with rain and this is the principle on which Rainbow Systems built their company. “Wet dust can’t fly!”

Everyone wants to be happy — but sometimes it can seem so out-of-reach! Happiness is not always an easy target. Maybe you are carrying around a sense of dissatisfaction, irritation, or disappointment that does not go away. Where does this come from? Is it how you are living now, or is it an old experience? Other people say “let it go” – but how do you do that?! How can you change the story? Counselling provides a safe, encouraging place to explore your options, including how to start connecting with what makes you feel satisfied and joyful.

Certified Yoga Therapists address your whole Being; Body, Mind and Spirit. In 1:1 sessions your particular confluence of issues, needs and capabilities are considered in the creation of your personalized practice, as are your age, energy level and lifestyle.

Reiki is an energy healing treatment that works holistically; on the whole body, mind and spirit. Natural healing vibrations are transmitted through the hands of a Reiki practitioner to the body of the recipient. Reiki treatment can relieve stress and pain, induce relaxation, release emotional blockages, accelerate natural healing, balance subtle energies, and support other medical modalities, including traditional therapies. Reputable medical facilities are now offering patients alternative healing programs such as Reiki, and are analyzing the benefits and submitting them for review and compilation. The effectiveness of Reiki is finally gaining new, much-deserved respect within the medical community.

In the spectrum of nutrition, berries rank near the top, and among berries, none are more nutritious than the Aronia berry. That’s because powerful antioxidants (proanthocyanidins) in Aronia berries remove harmful free oxygen radicals from cells. Research shows that in diabetics, Aronia berry juice reduced blood glucose, and its extracts reduced inflammation and improved immunity. An extract of Aronia berries injected into highly malignant brain tumor cells killed malignant cells within 24 hours without harming healthy cells. And in hard-to-treat cancers, combining Aronia with chemotherapy improved the effectiveness of conventional drugs.

We all want to live our best life, but it’s pretty easy to feel off-track. This can sneak up on us – an unsatisfying job, an upsetting event, or feelings about an ex, can lead you to cope in unhelpful ways. Or maybe it’s unclear where this feeling comes from. It can be hard to know how to act confidently towards your goals! How do you think well of yourself when you’re stuck? Counselling is a safe, neutral place to explore what’s next for you, and to feel better about yourself.
