Canadian Men’s Health Month
June is Canadian Men’s Health Month, a time to inspire men and their families to live healthier lifestyles. It’s important for the men in our lives to make healthy changes that will lower their risk of chronic disease and help them live with less stress. Many of the most common health conditions affecting men are often preventable with the right lifestyle changes. This could include improving their diet or eating habits, getting more exercise, finding healthier ways to manage stress, and drinking less alcohol. Let this month be the start of a healthier you and/or a healthier loved one!
Try Eating to 80% Full
We gain weight insidiously, not by stuffing ourselves, but by eating a little bit too much each day. Eating to 80% full is an easy way to reduce calorie intake without feeling like you are on a diet. The practice is straightforward – instead of eating to full, eat to almost full. When eating, pause a couple times to check-in on how full you feel. When you feel satisfied and almost full, stop. That’s it. You don’t need to change what you are eating, just eat a little bit less. How would it feel to leave the table feeling “just right”?
Young Living – For Men
After a workout, massage the Cool Azul™ Pain Relief Cream into your skin for relief of aches and pains. Your muscles will thank you for ditching the synthetic ingredients and you can continue crushing the weights, tearing up the fairway or hiking to your highest heights. When you’re done, treat your face to Shutran™ Shave Cream and stand out from the pack. It is full of hydrating ingredients and pure essential oils that’ll give you a close shave with a great fragrance. Lastly, for a great super-charge, grab some NingXia Zyng™ for a delicious splash of hydration.
How Much Are You Getting?
June is National Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Month! No matter what the season is, the generally accepted recommendation is to consume 8-10 servings of fresh fruits and veggies every day. But the reality is that very few of us get anywhere near that amount. In my experience working with clients, I have found that on average, they are only getting 2-4 servings/day (and likely less, since people tend not to want to admit what their nutritional habits REALLY are). So, if you are one of those people, supplementing with a high-quality live whole food supplement would be highly recommended.

Introduce the Idea of Caregiving
You can talk to your loved one about caregiving even before they need it. If you expect your loved one won’t be open to the idea, you could try: 1) Suggesting hiring a “housekeeper”, as seniors often find this easier to accept. 2) Explaining that hiring someone can help reduce physical tasks, calm their worries, and allow them to continue to live independently. 3) Asking your loved one’s doctor to support the idea. 4) Proposing a caregiver visit on a trial basis. Once your loved one sees the benefits, they may warm up to the idea and even request additional services.
