Let’s face it, taking care of others comes more naturally than taking care of ourselves. This fall invest in yourself and set an intention to make time for self-care – the most selfless thing you can do. Yoga is a great place to start. New to yoga? Been away for a while? No problem.

Nestled 300 feet below the Monashee Mountain Range near Valemount, British Columbia lies a natural spring. Monashee Water is true spring water and it contains no chemicals or additives, only essential minerals.

Did you know that 80% of Canadians will experience back tension? Pam Kats, RMT from Calgary, Alberta, explains, “As a massage therapist, I see a lot of people with back and neck tension and it often stems from their posture at a desk and computer. Our clients like the open, relaxed posture they can maintain at home with The Beam™.” Brandi G., from Vancouver, BC, shares, “I like to put my Beam™ at the back of my chair. It keeps my posture straight, which reduces tension in my shoulders. I’m so grateful for this product.”

“Bike commuting has been my choice of transportation from April to October in the last four years,” says Tatiana Tilly, Red Deer Public Library staff and Cyclovia Committee Member. “I love the sense of freedom that comes with biking in our beautiful city and the purposefulness of bike commuting that allows me to stay healthy and fit at the same time it takes me places. Biking is one of my weight management tools and regulates my low blood pressure.” If bike commuting is something you’d like to do, check out what materials we have in the Red Deer Public Library.
