If you would like to contribute to this great fundraiser for men’s health follow the link: https://movember.com/m/14442113?mc=1 Grow a moustache whether it is lopsided, raggedy, itchy, epic or patchy - They all start a conversation and raise awareness for a great cause!

Minimizing What my Family has to Take Care of Surviving family members must tend to many matters when a spouse, parent, sibling or child dies. This is a difficult time, and regrettably these responsibilities require immediate action, regardless of the emotional state of surviving family members. This is one of the reasons, planning in advance makes so much sense. Many decisions can be made beforehand, and subsequently, next of kin no longer needs to start from scratch when t...ending to the tasks that are associated with the passing of a loved one. Many checklists indicate that between 50 and 100 responsibilities, tasks and decisions need to be made. Sometimes not all survivors agree on a course of action and this can lead to conflict at what already is an emotional time. Lessen the burden on your family. We can help. Please contact us if you wish information on what decisions you can make today. Martin Brothers Funeral Services/CFHC Online

Just Breathe Sometimes individuals experience stress and anxiety when grieving. This can lead to a variety of symptoms including rapid breathing, sweating, fatigue, increased heart rate and difficulty concentrating. Fear and worrying can dominate personal thought patterns and the physical ailments can follow including the feeling one is going to faint. Firstly take a moment to compose yourself. It’s about redirecting your focus from panic to a state of calmness. Sit or lie ...down in a comfortable position. Elongate your back and begin to slow your rate of breathing. If comfortable close your eyes and focus on your surroundings. Listen to the sounds around you. Feel your feet on the floor and your hands beside you. Focus on your breath as you inhale and exhale. Try to breathe deeply from the abdomen. Notice your chest and belly expanding and contracting. Focus on the here and now, focus on your body as air enters and exits your lungs. Find a place of relaxation and calm. Continue to just breathe until you become comfortable. If you continue to have anxiety over time consult your physician. They will assess if you need additional support with this condition. Martin Brothers Funeral Services/CFHC Online
