The Bitter Truth About Sugar
A Silent Saboteur of your Health
by Judith Graile

Sugar has become a ubiquitous ingredient in the modern diet, lurking in everything from obvious sweets like cakes and candies to hidden sources like sauces, bread, and processed foods. While the occasional sweet treat may seem harmless, the overconsumption of sugar has far-reaching consequences on health, contributing to a variety of chronic diseases and conditions. Beyond just weight gain, sugar wreaks havoc on the body’s delicate systems, increasing the risk for serious conditions like type 2 diabetes, Alzheimer’s disease (also called type 3 diabetes), insulin resistance, chronic fatigue syndrome, and more.

Facets of Facials
by Lisa Munro

Facials and facial massage offer many benefits beyond the skin-deep luxurious spa treatments, and they are a great way to end an effective reflexology treatment. Many are unaware of the full range of advantages that a proper facial can provide. The benefits are immediate and long-lasting, from revitalizing your complexion, to reducing acne scars.

Emotional Release on a Ball
by Lorrel Elian

Most people are unaware that the body has a natural and logical order to how it functions. When it’s not used according to your body’s design, over time the misuse is how dis-ease and dysfunction start showing up. All the experiences you have in your life, shape how you walk, talk, and feel, which further creates how you, and your body look. It’s a direct link to how your life looks. Going to the gym, working out, having a yoga practice; all exercise is beneficial to your physical and emotional health. Although once you walk off the mat, or out of the gym, you generally walk back into your regular pattern. If you aren’t consciously aware of how you’re articulating your joints, and using the natural logic of your body’s design, the patterns that shape you remain. Stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, joy, sensitivity, and empathy will all look a certain way on, and in you.

Expressing Yourself Through Writing
by Cari Moffet

On a chilly winter morning in 2019, I came across an online group course challenge to "Write a book in 30 days." Sounds crazy, right? Naturally, I signed up. Not because I thought I could do it—oh no—but because I didn’t think anyone could. I figured we’d all fail gloriously together! In the first few days, we identified our genre and the average number of words that books in that specific genre usually contain. I did some math and BOOM—I had a daily goal: 1,333 words. Every. Single. Day. I’d sit down in the mornings with my laptop, coffee, and say a little prayer.

Unleash Your Inner Calm: Break Free from Anxiety and Reclaim Your Life!
by Giti Caravan

"Have you ever wondered what life could be like if the weight of anxiety no longer held you back from your true potential?” "Are you ready to discover the empowering feeling of having order in your thoughts, instead of the chaos anxiety can bring?” "Isn't it time to take control of your mental well-being and step into a life where calm and clarity replace worry and doubt?” Anxiety is a feeling that comes from past experiences. It can feel like a wrap all around our entire being. But there is a way to deal with it. Let me explain.

Sacred Geometry For The Soul Volume II
by Ann Chatfield

Channelling and creating volumes of mandalas was never on my bucket list, but after many days spent with my guides in my Akashic records, it became clear that it was to become part of my life purpose. I have spent my whole life watching, studying, and working with the flow of energy. I am trained in many modalities and have found that working with the mandalas and in the Akashic Records is my favourite way to help others, as both function on the basis that we are perfect at this moment, and both raise the frequency of your being to the highest potential during the session. All of these mandalas are channelled from the Akashic realm by me asking what my purpose is, and how I can best be of service to others in this life.

Uranium Three Ways: Yellowcake, Radon Gas Testing, and the Healing Tree for the World (Part 3)
by Nancy Tam

In this final article of a three-part serial, the “orange glowing rock” buried deep in the earth, is being intensively mined again as part of a nearly billion dollar industry. According to World Nuclear Association data, as of 2022, Saskatchewan is now the world’s second-largest producer of uranium. Our provincial government has reported that in 2023, it is expected that our uranium industry, primarily located in northern Saskatchewan, will produce nearly 15 million kilograms of yellowcake uranium, which almost doubles what was produced in the previous year. While this may appear to be an economic boon, it is important to carefully consider the potential adverse effects of uranium mining and processing on our human-health and possible radioactive contamination of the environment.

Editorial
by Melva Armstrong

Oh, look! It’s the November/December 2024 issue! This one is special because it reminds us to sit back, with a hot cup of tea, and to look back in our thoughts at 2024, all the while being grateful for the many and beautiful blessings that have occurred throughout the year. It’s hard to believe how quickly the year has flown by, and yet it also feels like it has been a whirlwind. Although the spring was slow in starting, we have been blessed with a super sunny and unusually warm summer and autumn, that has extended well into October. For all the gorgeous weather I am truly grateful. With all the activity in each of our busy lives, I personally find it most helpful for good health to find ways, each day, to slow down and do some meditating, slow walking and earthing, some breath exercises, as well as resting more often, and breathing in the healing energies of Mother Earth.
