Thanksgiving Day has been celebrated for a variety of reasons in Canada, but at its heart, it's all about gratitude. And in our minds, the greatest form of gratitude is the thankfulness we have for the people in our lives. So we are thankful for our families and friends. We're grateful for our coworkers and our clients. During these trying times, we are also thankful for those that put their lives on the line to help those in need - health care practitioners, police officers,... firefighters, and essential service workers in grocery stores etc. It is said, "It's not happiness that brings us gratitude. It's gratitude that brings us happiness." So not just for today, but every day, we will practice being thankful. Happy Thanksgiving Day from all of us at Simply for Life East Hants. #simplyforlife #healthylifestyle #thanksgivingday #gratitude

One of the best ways to keep ourselves from being anxious and feeling better is to list off the people and things we're thankful for. Research has shown that gratitude can improve general well-being, increase resilience, strengthen social relationships, and reduce stress and depression. The more grateful people are, the greater their overall well-being and life satisfaction. So, as we head into this Thanksgiving weekend, even with everything that's been happening lately, we e...ncourage you to spend time in gratitude. You'll feel better. PS we're thankful for you. #simplyforlife #healthylifestyle #thanksgiving #gratitude

We often think of health care as something we apply after we get sick. However, true health care is proactive. It starts with what we eat, and how much activity we engage in. With those as our foundation, we then need to be aware of how to support our health by boosting our immune systems as seasonal sicknesses start to make the rounds. Our nutrition experts can help you navigate this proactive approach to health care. Give us a call at 902.259.2720 to book your Free init...ial consultation.
