January Workshops & Events Live via Zoom


Nutrition Session to Decrease Stress/Inflammation & Improve Mood in Winter
Saturday January 15 @ 1-2pm
Renew & Replenish New Year Challengers: Free
Regular price: $20
Joanna Brown, owner of Rejoice Nutrition & Wellness will be covering how to support our body, mind and emotions during the winter with nutrition and our mindset.

Activating Your New Year! Aroma Yoga Workshop
Sunday January 16 @ 10am-12pm
Investment: $35 (without oils)
$50 (includes 7 oils in sample bottles you can use again)

The intention of Activating Aroma Yoga® is to cultivate the attributes of the earth, fire, and ether elements: physical grounding and energizing, mental clarity and spiritual connection. This class can dramatically improve symptoms such as lethargy, sadness, feeling scattered, stifled or stuck.

This class can help identify and clear thoughts and emotions holding us back. It can invigorate and help us take action in the direction of our dreams and desires. Essential oils penetrate the amygdala via the olfactory system - so they bypass the cognitive rational mind thereby helping to release and facilitate re-patterning of negative emotions.

We will be using the following therapeutic grade essential oils:
Frankincense
Northern Lights Black Spruce (alternative: any tree oil)
Peppermint (alternative: spearmint)
Lemon (alternative: citrus fresh or orange)
Copaiba (peppermint or spearmint)
Believe (alternative: frankincense, idaho balsam fir or spruce, bergamot)
Peace & Calming (orange or patchouli)

Canadian Arthritis Statistics
- 6 million Canadians have arthritis
- 1 in 5 have arthritis
- 5 times as likely to have mobility problems
- 40% have pain that limits activities

Diane's Story:
Arthritis is very common but is not well understood. Actually, “arthritis” is not a single disease; it is an informal way of referring to joint pain or joint disease. There are more than 100 different types of arthritis and related conditions. People of all ages, sexes and races can and do have arthritis, and it is the leading cause of disability in America.

It is most common among women and occurs more frequently as people get older. HOWEVER, no one is immune and even children suffer from this disease.

Common arthritis joint symptoms include swelling, pain, stiffness and decreased range of motion. Symptoms may come and go. They can be mild, moderate or severe. They may stay about the same for years, but may progress or get worse over time. Severe arthritis can result in chronic pain, inability to do daily activities and make it difficult to walk or climb stairs. Arthritis can cause permanent joint changes. These changes may be visible, such as knobby finger joints, but often the damage can only be seen on X-ray. Some types of arthritis also affect the heart, eyes, lungs, kidneys and skin as well as the joints.

2.5 years ago I was given a diagnosis for my ongoing, daily knee pain. I was taking over the counter pain meds every 4 hours. Not really relieving the pain but making it bearable.
Progressive Degenerative Arthritis was my diagnosis. I was strongly urged that I get in line for a double knee replacement. Wasn't happy about this so I knew that I was going to search alternative methods to deal with it. At this point he told me that surgery was the only answer to my pain and that I should not wait because I would probably end up in a wheelchair. I did not believe him because I firmly believe the body is designed to heal itself if given the opportunity.

So that is where my search began. 2.5 years ago. I stumbled onto Liquid Collagen. I researched and everything I read kept leading me to Collagen and Hyaluronic Acid. Collagen is already in our body but we produce less as we age (and what we do make is not as effective as we get older). That is why we experience achy joints.

I started drinking the liquid biocell collagen and 2.5 years later my arthritis has not progressed and I have not taken any pain medication for my knees in over 2 years. I am overjoyed!!

If you would like more information on liquid biocell collagen, please send me a private message.
