Spring is the worst season for allergies, according to the Canadian Society of Allergy and Clinical Immunology. Pollen from trees, grasses, and weeds is the biggest trigger, causing allergic reactions when inhaled or contacting the eyes. To reduce exposure, keep windows and doors closed and wear wraparound sunglasses outdoors. If pollen affects you, ask our pharmacists about the best allergy medications to manage symptoms while avoiding side effects like drowsiness and confusion. With the right precautions and treatment, you can enjoy spring with fewer allergy disruptions. Visit us today for expert advice on effective allergy relief.

Q: My eyes are dry all the time but I’m worried about using eyedrops too much. Aren’t they addictive?

A: It might seem excessive, but lubrication is necessary for the health of the eyes, even if it means using eyedrops to help. To make an analogy, a car engine won’t run better if you decide to stop using motor oil. Better eyedrops are designed not only to lubricate but to enhance the quality of your tears. Make sure to ask about this at your next eye exam! At Mosaic, we will gladly help with concerns such as this.

April is Oral Health Month, the perfect reminder for parents to schedule a dental checkup for their kids—especially after Easter treats! Sugary chocolates and candies can increase the risk of cavities, making it essential to reinforce good oral hygiene. Encourage brushing twice daily, flossing, and drinking water to rinse away sugar. A post-Easter dental visit helps catch any early signs of tooth decay and keeps smiles healthy. Use this month to build strong habits for lifelong oral health. Book your child’s checkup today and keep their teeth shining bright!

20 dates – pitted; 1/2 c peanut butter; 3 tbsp peanuts; 1 1/4 c dark chocolate chips; 1/2 tsp coconut oil. Line a plate with parchment paper. With a small knife, make a lengthwise slit in each date, slicing about halfway down. Fill each date with peanut butter & sprinkle peanuts on top. Place dates in the freezer to firm up until completely solid- approximately one hour. Add chocolate chips into a double boiler over medium low heat, stirring as the chocolate melts. Add oil if desired to make the chocolate thinner. Drop the dates one by one into the melted chocolate, flipping to get it entirely coated. Let cool in fridge & enjoy!

Yoga Therapy is the practice of simple movement and the relationships between each segment in your body. We focus on nervous system down regulation and learning to listen and communicate clearly through movement. This supports pain management and healthy long term body mechanics. Each person will find their own individual senses and sensations, proprioception (where you are in space) by way with interoception (feeling where you are in space with/through sensation). Yoga Therapy does not replace Asana/Yoga practice, it supports it and keeps your movement sound and pain free.
