Specialized nutritional testing can help you get the answers you need to improve your health and make your New Year’s resolutions a reality.

Travelling? Consider a Pet Sitter
Arranging for pet care while you’re away can feel like an overwhelming decision. It’s important to look for caregivers who will not only provide for basic needs like food and water, but also companionship, reassurance, and playtime while you’re away. If you can find someone to come to your home, your pet gets to stay in his familiar surroundings, which is less stressful than taking him to a new location. You and your pet should feel comfortable about the care arrangements, so you can enjoy your vacation without worry!

It’s time to invest in longevity, and your pharmacist is an invaluable partner in sculpting a healthier, more resilient you.
Winter Pests & Health Hazards
Winter pests seeking shelter in homes can pose health risks to residents. Common invaders like mice, rats, and cockroaches bring allergens and diseases, exacerbating respiratory issues. Rodent droppings can trigger asthma, while cockroach debris is linked to allergies. Additionally, ticks and fleas, often carried by rodents, can transmit diseases. Pests may contaminate food, leading to foodborne illnesses. The confined indoor environment during winter intensifies exposure. To mitigate health risks, seal entry points, maintain cleanliness, and promptly address infestations. Professional pest control, especially before winter sets in, is crucial for a healthy home environment during the colder months.
The New Way to Discipline Your Child
Co-regulation is a more effective parenting strategy compared to traditional parenting practices. Co-regulation focuses on empathy, open communication, and understanding resulting in stronger parent-child relationships. Unlike conventional discipline, co-regulation acknowledges emotions, encourages self-expression, and supports a child’s development of self-control. By providing guidance and support rather than punishment, co-regulation creates a nurturing environment that promotes positive behavior and emotional well-being in children, ultimately strengthening the parent-child bond. Check out our website to register for a 3-part parenting group on co-regulation coming soon!
