🎉 A Major Advancement In Protecting Natural Health Products 🎉

We are thrilled to announce that Bill C-368 has officially passed Second Reading after receiving a majority vote in the House of Commons on May 29th!!

This critical Bill, introduced by MP Blaine Calkins, aims to protect natural health products from overreaching regulations by repealing sections 500-504 of Bill C-47, Canada’s 2023 Budget Bill. These sections controversially moved natural health products into the same regulatory category as pharmaceutical drugs, a shift that has negatively impacted the industry.

We are grateful for the support from the Bloc Québecois, Conservative, NDP and Green Party members who voted in favour of Bill C-368. Despite the Liberal party voting against it, we still secured the majority needed to pass the Bill.

This is a massive win! It's important for you to know that very few Bills make it through Second Reading. This achievement is perhaps a bigger win than you understand, and is ALL thanks to your hard work 👏💚

But the process of passing Bill C-368 is not over. To ensure the continued success of Bill C-368, we encourage you to continue directing communications towards the 12 members on the Standing Committee on Health.

Keep the pressure up by sending another electronic letter to committee members! 👇

The square box breathing exercise was tested by the arm forces in combat. It is a proven method to reduce anxiety.

Draw a square on a piece of paper with equal sides using arrows.

Start on the left side and draw an up arrow, than draw an arrow pointing to the right to make the top, and than an arrow pointing down and finally an arrow pointing to the left to make the bottom of the square.

Practice breathing through your nose by following the arrows starting with the one on the left. Breath in with the up arrow to the count of 3. Than pause to the count of 3, than breathe out gently through your mouth to the count of 3 with the down arrow and pause along the bottom to the count of 3.

The key to this technique is the equal time for each of the 4 parts of breathing.

After a couple of minutes of counting, let the square become a circle. A never ending circle happening on its own, like a wave. Focus on the pauses, and experience the pauses as the silence and empty space of awareness.

This is a beautiful reminder of the simple joys in life that are always available to us.

Abundance is not the money you have in your bank account, the trophies on your shelf, the letters after your name, the list of goals reached, the number of people you know, your perfect, healthy body, your adoring fans.

Abundance is your connection to each breath, how sensitive you are to every flicker of sensation and emotion in the body.

It is the delight with which you savor each unique moment, the joy with which you greet each new day.

It is knowing yourself as presence, the power that creates and moves worlds.

It is your open heart, how deeply moved you are by love every day, your willingness to embrace, to hold what needs to be held.

It is the freshness of each morning unencumbered by memory or false hope.

Abundance is the feeling of the afternoon breeze on your cheeks, the sun warming your face.

It is meeting others in the field of honesty and vulnerability, connecting beyond the story, sharing what is alive.

It is your rootedness in the present moment, knowing that you are always Home, no matter what happens, no matter what is gained or lost.

It is touching life at the point of creation, never looking back, feeling the belly rise and fall, thanking each breath, giving praise to each breath.

It is falling to your knees in awe, laughing at the stories they tell about you, sinking more deeply into rest.

Abundance is simplicity. It is kindness. It is you, before every sunrise: fresh, open, and awake. You are rich, friend! You are rich!
