Tension headaches are probably most easily aided by Bruegger’s, though in using it you may find relief with other headaches too. Headaches can be complicated to manage, so if you’re suffering you might want to see a wellness therapist or two (e.g. an acupuncturist, chiropractor, physiotherapist, massage therapist, osteopath, or even a naturopath or a counsellor). Sometimes treatments help on their own, sometime changes in diet help, sometimes it’s posture work, and sometime it’s a combination of different approaches. Your health is complex: if what you’re doing isn’t totally working for you, give yourself the time to learn some natural ways to care for yourself too. #headachestoronto #brueggersstretch #chiropractortoronto #physiotherapytoronto #wellnesstoronto

Building and maintaining a healthy lifestyle involves a balanced approach to physical, mental, and emotional well-being. Start with regular physical activity, combining cardio, functional strength training, and agility exercises to keep your body fit and your mood positive. Pair the exercise with a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains to fuel your body effectively. Prioritize sleep by aiming for 7-9 hours each night to support recovery and mental clarity. Manage stress through mindfulness, meditation, or relaxation techniques like yoga or focused breathing. Incorporating wellness therapies such as acupuncture, chiropractic care, massage, or physiotherapy, can further enhance your health by addressing specific issues, promoting relaxation, and preventing injuries. Maintaining strong social connections with friends and family also plays a vital role in emotional health. Counselling sometimes helps enrich your relationships and helps you set goals to achieve within these connections. Such relationships then provide support and a sense of belonging. Lastly and most importantly, consistency is key—integrate these habits into your daily routine to create a sustainable and fulfilling healthy lifestyle.

Donald should be so lucky. 😂 The key takeaway here is that marriage counselling can work! Once you start with a counsellor who has an understanding of relationships and has a plan to bring to your sessions, you’re on the right track.

I promise to talk about my feelings in a future video, if I must. Lol. Marriage counselling can be really beneficial to a couple’s happiness together and also as individuals. When you’re in a long-term relationship and it’s working badly, your whole life is affected negatively because you have to interact with this person every day. And when you’re in a relationship that’s working well, you not only get a tremendous feeling of accomplishment, you feel the way you’re supposed to feel: like your whole world is magnified in a postive way. You deserve the benefits of some hard work. Let’s get it done. Message us now and we can get you to the right resources. #marriagecounsellingtoronto #counsellingtoronto #whatsyourlovelanguage #wellnesstoronto #mentalhealthtoronto

We’ve had counsellors on our team for years, and I’ve seen how marriage counselling is by far one of the most important services out there, especially if the couple has kids. Normalizing men talking about feelings is vital to our society today, and for making our own individual lives more joyful and more happy. #marriagecounsellingtoronto #counsellingtoronto #mentalhealthtoronto #wellnesstoronto #stclairwest

Read for explanations: 👇 Homework: Whether you’re in counselling or physio or anything in between (I guess ‘in between’ would be acupuncture…? Maybe osteopathy…? Lol.) Anyway, you’ll always have something to take away or think about: i.e. “homework,” if you will. And when you do what you’ve been “assigned” you’ll see progress exponentially faster than if you waited for the therapy (whatever kind) to work on its own. Repairs: I have so much homework to do, myself! Lol. And it means being a handyman a little bit and mostly trying to find the right local carpenter to help out. Once again I’ve found someone who will hopefully stick around for a while, so if you live in the area let me know and I’ll give you his contact info. Explaining Insurance: Because insurance information is usually considered privileged information, it is almost always impossible for wellness clinics (unlike dentist’s offices) to check your coverage. We can submit a claim on the day you have the appointment, and that test will let you know whether or not you had sufficient coverage for your visit. If you’d like help being guided through one of these processes, we’ll help! We’re, well… experts! Lol. Chiro or Physio First: If you’re unsure where to begin, start with chiropractic or physiotherapy; both can address various issues and help you understand your body’s needs. Plus, the government in Canada considers them to be primary health disciplines and so they can sign forms and order tests much the same way MDs can. Connecting with People: It’s so important in our jobs to make sure we’re consistently ‘in the field,’ i.e. engaging with others, both in-person and online, so that we may learn their needs and then share valuable wellness information. This helps to foster a supportive community dedicated to health and wellness and in doing so we hope to make the world a slightly better place. And when it comes to playing with life and living with

We advocate for personalized wellness plans at our clinic, understanding that each individual has unique dietary needs. It’s all about finding what works best for you and your body, and for me, that means a diverse and balanced approach to nutrition. Just make sure that your dietary choices give you the nutrients and satisfaction you need, so that your long-term health goals can be in sight. And if you’d like help with nutrition, see a naturopathic doctor as they can also recommend any appropriate supplements and can even do acupuncture. You deserve your best life, in all respects. #naturopathytoronto #nutritiontoronto #vegetariandietoptions #wellnesstoronto #stclairwest

Naturopaths are often the best for nutritional advice because they’re able to order blood tests for you, they can recommend supplements to suit your own personal needs, and many of them can offer acupuncture or another modality along with everything else. Want a free, 15-minute phone consult? DM us and we’ll help you set one up. #naturopathytoronto #tomatoesaregreat #doctorsarehumantoo #wellnesstoronto #tryitortweakit

Counsellor Taylor Smith is a good example of a counsellor who studies a wide variety of disciplines in her field and wisely employs the more effective parts of each, as needed. Different approaches work for different people, so you may want to look for a counsellor (e.g. a psychotherapist or social worker) who is trained in a variety of approaches such as DBT, CBT, mindfullness, or others. Not sure where to start and would like some advice? DM us and we’ll get you pointed in the right direction. We all deserve wellness. #wellness4all #wellnesstoronto #counsellingtoronto #dialecticalbehaviourtherapy #cognitivebehaviourtherapy

Meditating can be super chill, super relaxed and super easy. It doesn’t take a ‘lifestyle’ to make it work, it really only takes a few minutes of focusing on your breathing. That’s it!

We’re not evolved (physically) at this point to be sitting as much as we do, nor are we evolved enough yet to handle all of the poor nutrition options out there, which also adversely contribute to sedentary lifestyles. But humanity has survived this far by learning to ADAPT, and the adaptation needed to overcome the negative aspects of technology here is simple: exercise. Though exercise doesn’t always mean “just anything.” That’s a great way to get a routine going, but if you want to make real accomplishments that’ll translate to a longer, fuller life, then you’ll need to exercise SMART. And that means doing leg strengthening. Glute bridges, squats and lunges for a start. See a physiotherapist one or two times to get your form down right, and then you’re set. Please stay mobile for as long as you can - you deserve a long, full life. #exerciseforaging #legdaymostdays #wellnesstoronto #tryitortweakit #stclairwest

Water is vital for mental health in several ways: 1. Hydration and Brain Function: Your brain is about 75% water, and proper hydration improves concentration, memory, and cognitive performance. Dehydration impairs cognitive abilities. 2. Mood Regulation: Staying hydrated can positively impact mood, reducing levels of anxiety, depression, and irritability. 3. Stress Reduction: Adequate hydration helps regulate cortisol levels, reducing stress and anxiety. 4. Energy Levels: Dehydration causes fatigue, making it harder to engage in activities essential for mental health. Drinking water maintains energy levels. 5. Detoxification: Water flushes out toxins, supporting mental clarity and emotional stability. 6. Headache Prevention: Dehydration can trigger headaches and migraines, impacting mental health. Drinking enough water helps prevent these issues. Thanks for watching and reading.
