7 healthy stress-busting tips

We all deal with stress at various times in our lives, from looming deadlines at work to worrying about being able to pay our bills on time. Stress is a natural reaction to challenges in life, but it can also have significant impacts on our overall health if it becomes long-lasting and we aren’t able to deal with it. Here are seven

tips to help you alleviate the stress in your life.

get enough rest

A good night’s sleep is essential for taking care of both your physical and mental health. Most adults need seven to nine hours of sleep a night. Practising good sleep habits, like going to bed at a consistent time each night and keeping the

room cool and dark can help you get a more restful sleep. If you’re a light sleeper, consider using a white noise machine or fan to block out external sounds.

eat well

Eating a variety of healthy foods supports your overall nutritional health and physical and mental well-being. A healthy

healthy fats instead of saturated fats. Healthy eating is more than the foods you eat, it is also the where, when, why and how you eat. This can include taking time to eat without distractions, enjoying your food by creating a positive eating environment and using mealtime as a chance to connect with others.

get your exercise

Regular physical activity has been shown to improve our ability to learn and problem solve, while also reducing the risk of developing dementia or other cognitive issues. If you’re not into jogging or hitting the gym, low-impact exercises like yoga or going for a walk are great ways to clear your mind and reduce your stress while getting your body moving.

unplug your devices

time you spend “doom scrolling” or taking a break from it altogether. Shutting down your screens at least an hour before bedtime can also help with better sleep.

spend time with loved ones

If you can, prioritize some time to meaningfully connect with friends or family, whether in a group or one-on-one. If you are feeling stressed out, it can help to talk things through with someone you trust.

set a schedule

Stress can make it challenging to keep track of the things we want to get done from day to day. Setting a regular schedule for things like mealtime, chores and exercise will help you remember important tasks and feel more in control of your life.

seek help when needed

Sometimes we aren’t able to sort things out on our own and need more support. If feelings of stress or worry are long-lasting and are having a negative impact on your daily life, know there is help. There are a number of free mental health supports that you can access at anytime, from anywhere.

costsaving tips for this year

Last year’s inflation and high interest rates forced many Canadians to look for ways to cut back on their spending so they could pay their bills. Even if things do settle down this year, it’s always a good idea to find ways to cut back. Here are four ways to stay on top of your expenses this year.

build a budget

The only way to truly know your financial situation is to create a de-

tailed budget. There are a number of free budgeting tools available online. Tally up all your income in one column and all of your expenses in another. If the expenses exceed your earnings, try to identify areas you could cut back on.

The more details you include, such as having separate line items for groceries, takeout meals, convenience store purchases and sitdown restaurant receipts, the easier it will be to spot areas where you can cut back. look for grocery deals

Groceries are essential, but they’re also becoming increasingly expensive. So, when you go shopping, watch for sales and stock up on staples you regularly use. Also, keep your eyes open for discounts on surplus items or products approaching their bestbefore date.

Canadian apps like FoodHero makeit easierto find discounted proteins, bakery items, fresh and frozen produce, and more from grocers in your area. You’ll not only save money, but also help reduce

the estimated 50 million tonnes of food that goes to waste in Canada every year.

sell your unwanted items

As you’re working on having a fresh start this year, go through your wardrobe, bookshelf and other household items to look for things you no longer want or need, but someone else might value. There are many online platforms where you can sell these items and gather together some spending money.

seek out free or low-cost activities

Your local library is not only a great resource for free access to books, music and movies, many also offer free passes to local attractions. Museums often host a day or night where they offer free (or steeply discounted) admission.

If you’re a sports fan and there’s a college, university or junior team in your area, tickets are generally much cheaper than they are for professional games, and you might have future bragging rights about having seen the next big star play before they were famous. ■

how to protect yourself from scammers

Scams are more frequent than ever. If scammers gain access to your personal information or your log-in credentials, they can steal your money, open new accounts or change your credit card information. This could damage your credit score and make it difficult to get loans, buy a car or rent an apartment. Scammers can also fraudulently apply for benefit and credit payments through the Canada Revenue Agency, and apply for loans or credit cards in your name.

follow these tips to help you keep your money where it belongs:

1. When you aren’t sure who’s sending you a message, double-check.

a. Get a callback number from the caller to make sure they’re who they say they are.

b. Check an organization’s official webpage for contact information (never use the links or phone numbers contained in a message).

c. Take a minute to ask yourself why you are being contacted. It’s okay to ask questions and say no.

2. Remember, businesses and government agencies rarely ask for personal or financial information through email or text.

3. Don’t reuse logins and passwords across accounts. Re-used passwords can increase the risk of scammers stealing credentials and gaining access to multiple services.

If you think you are being

scammed, you may feel embarrassed. But it’s important that you get help immediately by calling your local police or the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre.

3 ways to know you’re selecting the

freshest ingredients

As the old adage goes, you are what you eat.

Fresh food not only looks and tastes better – it’s also packed with the vitamins and nutrients our bodies need. So, when it comes to feeding yourself, your friends or family, you want to make sure you’re using the freshest and highest quality possible ingredients. Here are three ways to ensure you pick the freshest ingredients when visiting the grocery store.

use your senses

Visually inspecting fresh produce is the first way to pick the best items. Bright, vibrant colours generally indicate when something is at peak freshness.

Pick up each item and inspect it all around. Soft or discoloured

spots often indicate that something is past its prime. With corn on the cob, peel back a bit of the husk to make sure the one you choose is in the best condition. For items in plastic packages, inspect the food from all angles, looking for signs of bruising or rot.

Finally, give it a sniff. Fruits like pineapple and mango will give off a sweet smell when ripe.

shop local

Select grocery stores have signs indicating where the produce and other products they sell are grown. When you buy locally grown produce, you can feel confident that it was picked at peak freshness and appeared on store shelves soon after being harvested.

Locally grown seasonal produce is often cheaper than imported

options. Plus, buying locally reduces the carbon footprint of the food you eat and supports local producers.

be selective in where you shop

Nothing is more frustrating than reaching into the fridge for some recently purchased produce you plan to use in a meal to find out that it’s already spoiled. Find out what your preferred retailer’s policy is on returns. Loblaw grocery stores, for example, have a “Fresh Promise” guarantee where if you’re not completely satisfied with produce purchased in-store, they’ll replace it within seven days and offer a full refund.
