Online dating can be exhausting, dangerous and demoralizing. Hours of searching profiles, followed by unsuccessful date after date can result in dating ‘burn out’. Furthermore, when it comes to online dating, you never know who you are really meeting. You have no idea about their actual age and relationship status, their true intentions or if they have a criminal history. Online dating can be extremely dangerous. This is why I recommend a professional matchmaker. An experienced matchmaker will introduce you to the right match, who is screened, and hand picked for you. Finding true love is important and hiring a matchmaker could be the best decision you ever make.

Why Do We Need Sunglasses?
When it comes to sunglasses, we all know that we should be wearing them. But why? There are many benefits to wearing sunglasses, including protecting our eyes from damaging radiation and ultraviolet (UV) rays. High-quality sunglasses will filter out 99 to 100 percent of UV rays (sometimes called “sunburn rays”), which can help prevent UV-related eye disorders such as macular degeneration, the leading cause of vision loss in older people, and cataracts, a major cause of blindness and visual impairment. People of all ages are at risk, including children, and certain medications can increase your risk. Protect your eyes today!

Exercising with Shoulder Pain
When dealing with shoulder impingement, avoid resisted shoulder exercises with a pronated grip (palms facing down), as the tendons will be pinched in this position. The weakened rotator cuff is unable to maintain adequate space between the bones in the shoulder, causing the tendons to rub, which will aggravate symptoms. Exercises should be done in pain-free range of motion with proper form. It is more important to restore movement and increase endurance by doing higher repetitions than overloading with heavy weight. Make sure to emphasize deep breathing and take a 45 to 60-second break in between sets.
Drink Aloe for Weight Loss
Aloe Vera’s weight loss properties are becoming better known. This plant stands above the rest of nature’s products as a detoxifying agent that helps the body remove waste. This is largely due to one of its components called ‘aloin’, which taken in appropriate doses can help us achieve its beneficial cleansing properties. The Aloe plant also helps us burn fat by improving our metabolism and the production of fatty acids, which is undoubtedly a big help in the fight to rid our bodies of excess fat. Aloe promotes intestinal function and better allows us to eliminate toxins from the body.
Teach Healthy Choices Early
If we had half the knowledge we gain when we are older, as children, our childhood would have been different. It is known that as we get older, we make healthier decisions, usually due to a health issue or to prevent health issues. If we start teaching our children healthy choices at a young age, the choices soon become a healthy lifestyle for our children, which can create a longer, healthier life. This is especially important today, as a recent study conducted by Canadian Men’s Health Foundation has ranked Manitoba and Saskatchewan as the unhealthiest regions in Canada.

Stay Healthy with Real Food
Many of us eat on the go, but most of the time we don’t think about what we eat! What are we putting in our bodies? Is it real food? Or food full of preservatives that our bodies can’t digest? Start eating real food, before any resulting body pain, fatigue, and illness occur. Eating healthy, real food can also save you money in the long run, helping to keep diseases and conditions at bay. Rather than rely on advertising for convenience foods, do your own research and try to buy fresh, local food whenever possible.
Freedom from Vertigo
Vertigo or spinning feelings can be scary and debilitating. They can be from serious causes, but most often it is a condition called BPPV. This is an easily treatable condition with intense spinning symptoms. It is when naturally occurring inner ear crystals get dislodged and begin floating in areas they don’t belong. With proper diagnosis, this condition is often fully treated in one to three visits. Incorrect treatment, unfortunately, can make the condition worse. An ENT specialist or a vestibular trained physiotherapist can rule out serious causes and give you the treatment necessary to allow you to live symptom-free.
Caregiver Burnout is Real!
The never-ending tasks that are involved in caring for a loved one can play havoc on the caregiver’s personal life, as well as their health. Many caregivers will die before the person with dementia that they are caring for does. It is vital that caregivers take care of their own health by attending their own doctor appointments, eating well, exercising, and spending quality time doing things that bring them joy. Caregivers should also reach out to other family members and professionals with experience caring for a person living with dementia for support, guidance, and help caring for their loved one.
