Massage Your Nervous System
Massage therapy does not only improve your body´s physical state, but it also has a dramatic effect on your nervous system. Your nervous system is the one that maintains your body´s homeostasis, which is the state of equilibrium, balance or stable internal environment of your body. Research has shown that therapeutic massage therapy stimulates the nervous system to produce hormones that have tremendous benefit on the entire body. This stimulation removes the toxins and wastes in a more efficient way, helping oxygen to flow without difficulty through your body´s systems, restoring vitality and energy.
Managing Disagreement About Parent’s Care
Conflict between siblings is relatively common when it comes to making decisions on caregiving responsibilities. Left unchecked, these spats can quickly unravel into full-blown family conflict — all while an elderly parent is waiting to receive the support he or she needs. But who’s going to pay for all of this? Money is one of the most frequent sparks that lights conflict between siblings. Some families find it’s easier to work through disagreements when there is a neutral party there to act as a ‘referee’. Someone like a family counselor or mediator can help keep the discussion moving in the right direction.
Investing in a Hybrid Vehicle
While hybrid vehicles may require a higher budget to start compared with conventional vehicles, the financial savings involved in owning a hybrid vehicle over time can really make a positive difference to your budget. Since the engines in hybrid vehicles are off some of the time, the wear and tear on various parts is decreased, to reduce servicing and maintenance. You may not be aware that hybrid batteries are designed to last the lifespan of the vehicle! All this and you get unbelievable cost savings at the pump. Consider investing in a hybrid vehicle and see the difference it can make!

Pharmacare 101
Pharmacare provides drug cost assistance to eligible Manitobans who do not have coverage under a federal or other provincial program. Pharmacare is income based, which means a yearly deductible is calculated based on the total adjusted family income (usually ranges from 3.01-6.81%). Once the deductible has been reached (minimum $100, no maximum) through the purchase of eligible prescription drugs at a pharmacy, Pharmacare will pay 100% of eligible prescription costs for the remainder of the benefit year. You should apply for Pharmacare even if you have private insurance. Application forms can be found online at the government of Manitoba website or at your local pharmacy.
Mindfulness Retreat
The power of mindfulness meditation is well recognized. Indeed, it is the foundation to my personal wellness. But, first I needed to understand the science behind it. Once I did, I knew it was the tool I had been seeking.
Join me at Chalet Point Retreat Centre, where I lead classes in a variety of topics: understanding the concept of self, exploring the mind-body connection, the power of focused attention, and the psychology of motivation. Overlooking beautiful Lake Winnipeg, Chalet Point is just a one-hour drive from Winnipeg, Manitoba. Perfect for small groups, with half-day, full-day, and overnight options.
