LONG
RUN By CHARLIE UPSHALL
A WALK ON THE WILD SIDE “I went to the woods because I wanted to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life and see if I could not learn what it had to teach…” “An early morning walk is a blessing for the whole day.” - H.D. Thoreau Most days I go for a walk or run on the Lynn Valley Trail. I always finish feeling energized and in a good mood. I’ve just assumed that was completely a function of the exercise itself. It turns out that it is much more. A casual conversation led to my becoming intrigued by the therapy of “forest bathing,” introduced by the Japanese government in 1982. Japan’s population of 127 million is squeezed into about one-quarter of the country’s area because it is so mountainous that much of the land is too steep to live on. As a result, about 95 per cent of the people live in cities. Most live in such crowded circumstances that they just patiently have to accept being shoved and packed into subway cars, for example. Urban life is intensely stressful. The state religion, Shinto, is in many ways a natural response to this stress. Its practice involves visiting peaceful shrines in nature to commune with divine spirits. A therapy for physical, mental and emotional well-being has sprung from the religion. In English it is called “forest bathing,” meaning becoming immersed in the woods and nature. We have always been told that it is good for you to go for a walk in the natural environment. In fact, the benefits can be detailed much more specifically and scientifically. There is a significant amount of evidence regarding the health advantages of spending time in the vicinity of trees. The average North American now spends 93 per cent of his/her time either indoors or in a vehicle. Yet being in the woods can, at its very least, help ease worry, help us relax and think more clearly. It can restore our mood and give us back energy. Forest bathing entails
taking in the forest through our senses, connecting with it through sight, hearing, taste, smell and touch. This tonic of the wilderness was Henry David Thoreau’s classic prescription for civilization and its discontents, as described in “Walden: Or Life in the Woods.” We are now learning that the benefits can be described in more factual detail. Trees release oils into the air, called phytoncides, in order to protect themselves from germs and insects. For us, inhaling phytoncides seems to actually improve our immune system function. In studies, subjects were more rested and less inclined to stress after a forest bath. What the evidence suggests is that we don’t need a lot of exposure to gain from nature, but regular contact appears to improve our well-being. Most of the studies showed benefits when participants went on forest bathing walks every one to four weeks. Also, forest bathing is undertaken at a slow pace with a focus on experiencing the nature around us. It isn’t about covering a certain distance. THE SPECIFIC BENEFITS ARE AS FOLLOWS: 1. DECREASED RISK OF HEART ATTACK Forest bathing reduces blood pressure, stress levels and pulse rate. It increases your body’s adiponectin levels. The result is an anti-inflammatory effect on blood vessel cells. 2. PROTECTION AGAINST OBESITY AND DIABETES Increased adiponectin is also inversely related to obesity and insulin resistance. Forest bathing reduces blood glucose levels, even in individuals with diabetes. 3. MORE ENERGY AND BETTER SLEEP It has been shown to increase vigour and fight fatigue. At the same time, it triggers hormones and processes in the body that improve sleep. 4. MOOD-BOOSTING EFFECTS One study showed that anxiety, depression and confusion levels were improved after forest bathing. 5. DECREASED INFLAMMATION Forest air is noticeably fresher than city air, since the trees are busy converting carbon dioxide into fresh oxygen for our lungs. The D-limonene, found in some forest

air, reduces lung inflammation. Those with breathing problems, such as asthma and COPD, have shown improvement as oxygen increased and inflammation lessened. 6. ANTI-INFLAMMATORY TERPENES Terpenes are some of the main anti-inflammatory components emitted by coniferous trees into the forest air. Different terpenes have proven to be effective against inflammation in the brain, liver and pancreas. Forest bathing helps fight against cancer cell growth, due in part to the terpene D-limonene, which has antitumor properties. 7. CLEARER, MORE COMFORTABLE SKIN Inflammation causes certain skin disorders. 8. SOOTHING RELIEF FOR SORE MUSCLES

SNOW TIRES... A MUST-HAVE FOR THE WINTER! Having lived in the north almost all my life, I am familiar with snow tires. I can identify them by sight and sound and even smell. I know their habits—they travel in pairs—sometimes even in fours. Never alone and occasionally there are five. If you find someone who carries one as a spare, you should marry them. They are a rare and beautiful creature. For many, even some in the tire business, the first great mystery of the snow tire, is the indecipherable codes on the sidewalls that identify their sizes and capabilities. These codes are applied to tires of all seasons, but the winter tires get a lot of added X, M and S’s. After decades of observation and terrible handwritten notes, I have finally decrypted the riddle. Say for example you see, 235/55 R18 100R VI/DM on the side of the tire. Let's break it down for easy digestion. First, 235/55 R18 means it fits on an 18” rim about 55 times out of the 235 times you try. Then 100R. Simply put, you should put it on the right side of your vehicle for no more than 100 days, then switch it to the other side. Except in the Virgin Islands and Denmark ( VI/DM ). Confusing to the uninitiated, but elegant in its own way. The best snow tires have very aggressive and sticky sounding names. Goodyear went with the name Ultra Grip. Which implies the grip is as good as it gets. Dunlop has a slightly medicinal name Graspic DS-3. If it doesn’t hold the road, at least you can use it for intestinal gas pains. Firestone offers the Winterforce, because one compound word begets another. Pirelli uses Sottozero, tires so good one must lower one’s voice to use them.
Why, would you ask, do I load them in my car and not on my car? Well, it certainly saves on wear and tear. The downside of having softer and stickier tires is that they get ground in a hurry on dry roads. It really would be best to throw them in the backseat between ice storms, but I don’t go that far. I put them in the car to drive them just far enough to have someone else mount them for me. There was a time in my earlier days, when I mounted my own snow tires. But that is a fool's errand unless you really know what you are doing. I once turned a perfectly good snow tire into a boat bumper by trying to mount it myself with a pair of crowbars. Don’t try this kids. Come to Simcoe Canadian Tire and let us do the work for you. We are going to charge you a nominal fee, but save you hundreds by not ruining your tires, and just think of what you can do with all that money you saved. Visit us at Simcoe Canadian Tire Auto Service Centre or book your appointment to have your tires changed over. We also have the largest selection of both Winter and All Season tires in the area. Also, we offer tire storage so you don’t have to make room in your basement or garage for the second set.
I have gone the last two seasons with the Bridgestone Bizzak. I went with Blizzak tires because it sounds like the leader of an alien horde from a far off frozen planet and like somebody who would know his snow tires. He does. These are great tires, performing well on snow and ice, but they smell funny. They have an odour because they are made of a softer and stickier rubber and if you load them in your car, it will soon smell like someone who is in need of Graspic DS-3.

LARRY MELLORS
LOOK
BEFORE YOU S TEP Recently we took a vacation to Sebring, Florida. "Where is that?" you may ask. Yes, it is an unknown destination spot in the “Sunshine State.” Most everyone else would be vacationing in Orlando, Miami, Fort Myers, etc. where there is lots to do. The tourist trap sections of Florida were definitely off of our radar. Rather, we wanted a quiet area of Florida where we could just recharge our batteries and vegetate. We certainly found it. Sebring is located on Lake Jackson and the resort we stayed at was on the north shore of Little Lake Jackson. Perfect for us, as we enjoy water, fishing, wildlife, hiking and biking. The only thing about the time frame we were staying – was the presence of certain wildlife due to the high waters. Remember Florida had just weeks before we arrived felt the effects of Hurricane Florence. Lots of rain had dropped on Florida. Both of these lakes were at very high water levels and you could certainly see that by walking along the lake bank within the resort. As we were checking in, the first paper we were handed warned us of the dangers of the high waters. The front desk person advised us there were alligators, and worse yet, water moccasin snakes present. The water moccasin snake is also the same species as the cottonmouth snake. With normal water levels the resort can control the water moccasins by spreading pellets along the shoreline. The pellets resemble mothballs and contain sulphur and naphthalene (mothball). These pellets deter the snakes from coming onto the grounds of the resort. The pellets give off an odour which is unpleasant to the snakes. They will not come onto shore in this treated area. Due to the high fluctuating water levels, the pellets were swept into the lake and therefore did not control the snakes. If you do not already know, water moccasin snakes are very aggressive and venomous. There were alligators present within the lake as well. Due to the extreme heat and sunny conditions, the alligators remained underwater to keep cool. Therefore, they were extremely hard to see. Only their eyes and a very small portion of their head would be exposed. This made it difficult to locate an alligator, so we were to use caution when around the water’s edge. We were told not to enter the lake. We did travel to Lake Placid, Florida, for an air boat tour of Lake Istokpoga with Captain Lee, owner and operator of Bullfrog Airboat Tours. He confirmed what we had been told about the alligators. It was just too hot for alligators to be found out sunning themselves in this heat. Also, it was alligator hunting season when we were there. The alligators made it very difficult for us to spot. We were advised not to step outside of any door until first checking the outside surroundings for water moccasins or alligators. Kind of scary!! As well, always keep a vigilant eye for either on the property. Just then, another tourist, Chris, as we later found out, came inside and retold his story of swimming in the pool only to discover he had a visitor in the pool – a water moccasin! The resort had paddle boats, kayaks and row boats for our use for free. We asked about using them and we were again given some advice. Use the row boats as it was difficult for both the alligators and snakes to access while on the lake. As for the other two modes of travel – the snakes can slither onto or the alligators can tip them over! On the Friday I was convinced that we should go for a kayak trip onto the lake. We did see a water moccasin swimming close by, but to our knowledge, we did not have an alligator close by. We did take every precaution as advised but did not have any close calls. Except in Highlands Hammock State Park where we got separated by a yellow rat snake on a very narrow boardwalk through the swamp. But that’s another story!

THE HAGERSVILLE LION'S
SUMMER 2018 IN REVIEW: ► 11TH ANNUAL LIONS SUMMER'S END FESTIVAL IN HAGERSVILLE Every year, for eleven years, on the Saturday of the Labour Day weekend, Hagersville and District Lions present a free family-friendly Summer's End Festival at the Hagersville park, with the help of local businesses and supporters. This year, our 11th annual free festival was held Saturday, September 1, offering free BBQ hot dogs, Snyder's corn, pop and water, bouncy castles and slides, a magic show, craft tent, horse wagon rides, rock climbing wall, and musical entertainment, including Mark LaForme and other great musicians. The weather cooperated with sunshine and warm temperatures all day. We also held the perennially popular Silent Auction (thanks to our donors), a mobile escape room, a number of craft vendors, information booths and displays. Our Classic Car Cruise Drive-in had a new record attendance of 150+ classic cars! Thanks to many donations, some Classic Car visitors went away happily with prizes. We would like to thank our local businesses and community sponsors for their continued support in helping us make this free community family event happen. Many people thanked us for the festival, and many made donations including one gentleman who gave us a cheque for $1,000 supporting the event! I would also like to thank Lion Tanya Ribbink, our main organiser since the beginning, and all the Lions and volunteers who put so much work and effort towards making this fun fest run as smoothly and efficiently as it was. Further, thanks to our volunteer Fire Fighters who did the barbecuing and kept the crowd fed and happy. This was not an easy task, and they worked all afternoon since we had the largest crowd ever! ► HALDIMAND MOTORS TRIKE RACE AND PARADE This year the Hagersville Lions were very successful at the Haldimand Motors Trike race and parade. Our boat float, “Pirates of the Haldibbean” was named after the
Disney movie “Pirates of the Caribbean.” This earned us a 3rd place finish, for the first time. In the trike race, we were successful as well, with two riders, and received prize money for that. Not only did we have fun, but we raised $3,800, of which 100% will be donated back to the community and charities. Thank-you to Haldimand Motors for your continued support of volunteer nonprofit community organisations! ► 5 BENCHES ADDED TO THE HAGERSVILLE LIONS PARK This summer we added five sturdy metal park benches to the Hagersville Park in downtown Hagersville. Three benches were installed at the Splash Pad and two more were placed at the playground next to it. This was another step in improving this park for our Hagersville community. ► "MESSAGE IN A BOTTLE" Medical Information for First Responders The "Message in a Bottle" kit contains a pill bottle in which there is a form informing first responders of the names and medically pertinent information about people of each household. It is placed in the refrigerator door, and stickers included tell the first responders that there is medical information available and where to find it. Over the summer we supplied "Message in a Bottle" kits to EMS, pharmacies, doctor offices, and people who requested them. We have distributed and given out about 175 free kits so far.

PTSD
What makes all the difference when facing the adversity and PTSD that life has handed you, is how you choose to react to it. My name is Stefanie Miller, I work as a paramedic, and for the last ten years, I chose to wear a “mask” because I was afraid of what others would think. The stigma surrounding PTSD was holding me back. I suffered in silence for seven years, before I was formally diagnosed with PTSD in 2000. This was before I became a paramedic. I fought through years of confusion, depression, suicidal thoughts and found my way to recovery. I eventually found strength and comfort in Paramedicine and began my journey in the field in 2007. I continue to actively work through most of my post-traumatic stress, as a wife, mother, successful paramedic and now I also serve as a highly sought after motivational speaker and international author. This year I created an organisation to further my Advocacy work for First Responder Mental Health Injuries such as Post Traumatic Stress, (PTS), Acute Stress Disorder (ASD), and Occupational Stress Injuries (OSI’s) called Stefanie Speaks. www.StefanieSpeaks.com Stefanie Speaks was created when, after a number of years advocating and attending events across Canada I realised that more needed to be done. I felt I could no longer sit and wait for someone to do something, the time had come for me to take action. There are not enough resources, education and supports available to address the issues of mental health and the first responder. Although recognition and awareness have come a long way, there is still so much more that needs to be accomplished. My mission is to bring awareness to the high rates of mental health issues in the FIRST RESPONDER community and reduce them. To promote optimal mental health for FIRST RESPONDERS through awareness, advocacy, sharing of resources and promotion of education. In doing so, I hope to eliminate the stigma that prevents FIRST RESPONDERS from admitting these issues and asking for help. My hope is through education, FIRST RESPONDERS will learn about self and peer care creating a more supportive inclusive culture. Finally, to continue to advocate for systemic change in how mental health issues are addressed by the FIRST RESPONDER agencies. Staying healthy and well takes a lot of work, dedication and discipline, especially for a working paramedic when sometimes daily I am exposed to triggers and new traumas. I also need to be cognizant of my advocacy work. For me, helping others is a healing process for me too. I am passionate about providing others with a variety of resources, as we are all individuals, what works for me, may not work for you. In May 2017, I began a chapter of the Wings of Change - peer
support group in Brantford ON (www.Wingsofchange.ca). I share my experiences with group development and peer support by facilitating the meetings. Wings of Change provides an anonymous non-judgmental solution-based atmosphere. I find the sessions just as important to my ongoing recovery as do the people who attend. It is made clear in these sessions that those attending must also be involved with a formal type of therapy. We operate under the (MHCC), Mental Health Commission of Canada’s guidelines, “Informal peer support” which occurs when acquaintances notice the similarity of their lived experience and listen to and support each other. Currently, I am working on a couple of new authored projects, a second compilation due to be released in October 2018, and my ongoing works in my personal growth through adversity story as well public speaking and advocating. I want people to understand that a diagnosis of a mental health injury for a first responder such as PTS, ASD, OSI, does not have to be a career-ending event or a lifelong sentence of suffering. Keeping in mind that everyone is different, and we have our individual life experiences that contribute to our lives and situations. I want people to recognise that it’s “OK” not to be “OK.” That the things we see and are exposed to as a first responder are not normal, so when we have a normal response to these experiences and react it should be expected, and not treated as a shameful reaction. There is help available, and through advocacy, I hope to make it even more accessible. Moving forward I have many plans, but for now, I will follow the advice of my father through reciting a Buddhist proverb, “How do you eat an elephant? One step at a time.” I plan to continue to make changes and create awareness one step at a time.

TIPS & ADVICE SHOWER BASES. I see a lot of different prices for acrylic shower bases. They appear to be the same thing, so why are some more expensive than others? The actual sheet of acrylic is similar for all of them. The difference lies in the overall construction of the base. Some of the lower price units have a layer of foam sandwiched between the acrylic surface and the underside which makes them cheaper to produce. One of the biggest complaints about foam core bases is that they squeak when stepped on and are susceptible to cracking. The better quality bases, like the ones sold at The World of Plumbing, have a layer of plywood under the acrylic which is then sprayed with chopped fiberglass and resins. This makes the base much stronger than foam core models and is far more resistant to cracking. In the plumbing world, as in the real world, beauty is only skin deep. It's what's inside that makes a lasting partnership.

'COUNTRY LANE' by: Vic Gibbons
The man of great works.
Country Lane was originally painted by Vic in the mid 70’s. It is a classic Gibbons with all the trademark attributes that have become part of his signature over the years. The stunning fall colours with the always present Birch tree sleepily adds to the scene. The old faded shed stands weathered, yet proudly positioned perfectly in front. The traditional wheel barrel and the gentle lane provide that touch of familiarity. Vic fondly reflects upon some of his early works and enjoys telling me the stories behind some of these timeless pieces and how they came to happen upon his brush. Order your Country Lane print now during the Christmas Special $335.00 plus tax (reg $435.00). Only 6 framed prints left!!
To see some of Vic's great pieces, stop by Backus Heritage Conservation Area and visit the Vic Gibbons Exhibit!

THE MARATHON.
By: Mary
eople sign up to run a Marathon (42k) for many different P reasons. I signed up on a lark. My husband showed me pictures of a beautiful Autumn trail run in the Laurentians (North of Montreal). I thought to myself - sure, I’d love to run down that trail on a sunny Sunday afternoon. As a recreational runner for the past 5 years with North Shore Runners in Port Dover, I had done shorter events, but never a Marathon, but the pictures of the event just looked too nice to pass up - so I signed up! I embarked on a 26 week training program, which translated into having to do many training runs during one of the hottest summers on record. During one of those particularly hot, humid summer evenings when I was doing a 22k run, I realized I may have bitten off more than I could chew. I was going to need some powerful motivation to get me to the finish line if I was struggling this much to get through a 22k run. s the President of NGH & NHNH Volunteer Association, A I am always trying to think of ways to raise funds for the hospital, so the idea came to me while on a run; turn this Marathon into a fundraiser! n Sunday, October 21, in a surreal change of weather, O snowflakes flying in a 40k wind with a -10C windchill at the start line, I embarked on my first ever Marathon. Some five hours and thirty four minutes later, I crossed the finish, proudly knowing that I had raised $1400 for the Hospital to be used towards new equipment and that’s what helped to keep me going. any thanks to everyone who contributed to the cause M and those of you that encouraged me and showed your support... I hope to be able to do this again next year!

HEALTH MANAGEMENT STRATEGIES
Focusing On You! BARB ANSTEAD, Holistic Nutritionist
Natural Nutritional Consulting Practitioners strive to educate and empower clients to understand the importance of their own role and responsibility in longterm self-care. From a Wholistic/Holistic perspective, all facets of life are taken into consideration to achieve maximum potential for health and vitality. This mirrors the approach taken within the spectrum of Complementary Health modalities. By seeking out the services of Registered COMPLEMENTARY HEALTH PRACTITIONERS, you are taking a proactive step toward enhancing your overall health and wellbeing. These highly trained and educated professionals understand and appreciate that your treatments can be positively influenced and enhanced by "Adjustments" to your lifestyle and "Manipulation" of your nutritional habits. Holistic Practitioners will examine and review all aspects of an individual's life through gathering a thorough health history. Along with the provided information, things taken into consideration will include: normal dietary habits and patterns, a detailed health history (of both the individual and relevant familial concerns), activity/ exercise habits, sleep patterns, hydration, stress levels, any medications or supplements, support systems and overall nutritional status. With an Initial Consult, client input is key in identifying primary concerns and setting both positive and reasonable goals as a course of action. Many supportive tools may be provided to assist and reinforce these goals. Books, handouts, clear dietary recommendations or supplements and perhaps a suggested meal plan or recipes could be a part of their individual protocol.
Care is always centred on the individual - it is inclusive, meaning that it is understood that a patient-centred healthcare team is often the best approach. Information and care are transparent where possible - patient consent must be given in order to share treatment strategies and plans with other health care providers should they be working with more than one. There are a great many conditions for which individuals may wisely seek the services of Registered/Certified Natural Nutritional Consulting Practitioners or other Complementary Health Services. Regardless of whether your appointment is arranged for acute, chronic or preventive reasons, identification of lifestyle and nutritional habits is essential. Implementing supportive, corrective, nutritional and lifestyle habits can potentiate a positive and lasting impact on cellular health and metabolism in the body. No therapy is a stand-alone treatment. Using combined, proven methods will assist the body's innate wisdom to inhibit destructive inflammation promptly and effectively. Harnessing our unique healing power will optimise restoration and regeneration at the cellular level. This combined approach is the best course of action for enabling and maintaining proper physiological function. See me at Dover Apothecary (Thursdays) and be sure to follow up on future articles for specific information on various health topics and information on supportive nutritious foods and supplements - those which are best as well as those to be reduced or avoided.

CROSS
TRAINING. We all get stuck doing our specialty, for me, it is trail running. For the longest time, I felt the only way to get stronger, was to run more and more. After a while, I soon realised that adding swimming in a couple times a week was really helping my overall strength training. Plus, a day or two at the gym with the proper routine added better stability and balance to my overall fitness. Another element was simply going for a bike ride, which worked different muscle groups and saved the pounding

IS THIS VERTIGO? Most of us have experienced slight dizziness when getting up from sitting or lying down too quickly but what happens when that feeling lasts longer than a few seconds? The term vertigo describes a spinning sensation that can be brought on while looking down from a great height or from inner ear infections and is a form of dizziness and disorientation. Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) is a common form of vertigo that interrupts balance and vision and can cause episodes of nausea and vomiting. BPPV results in vertigo that comes on quickly and lasts from 20 seconds to a few minutes. This form of vertigo can potentially go away on its own within a few weeks but can last up to a couple months or even years without proper care. BPPV occurs when small crystals made up of calcium carbonate break free and float inside the inner tubes or semicircular canals of the ear. When these crystals become dislodged, they attach to little hair cells, creating a sensation of movement when the head is not moving, causing the brain to react as if you're in motion and starts compensating with unnecessary eye movement (nystagmus) causing dizziness. Certain head movements trigger vertigo symptoms in people with BPPV but can commonly be associated with the post effects of a head injury. The most common population affected by BPPV are women over the age of 50, individuals with medical conditions affecting proprioceptive balance or ear function and individuals who have previously experienced bouts of vertigo and BPPV. Physiotherapy methods and techniques can help dissipate symptoms and provide education on prevention and aftercare strategies for BPPV. BPPV is commonly treated with head positioning manoeuvres meant to relocate these crystals back to their origins of the utricle and saccule of the inner ear. Treatment for BPPV usually takes a couple of sessions and can be performed at home after having experience on the execution and duration of proper head positioning. Be careful of online exercises and simple vertigo exercise sheets that are given out – Proper treatment requires an assessment to determine the proper side and proper canal. The repositioning manoeuvre is very specific. The Ontario Balance Centre located at Great Lakes Physiotherapy can offer treatment and guidance to anyone who feels as if the world is spinning.

FROM THE CHAIR.
MOVEMBER
MEN’S MENTAL HEALTH AND SUICIDE PREVENTION With the Movember campaign in full swing, now is the perfect opportunity to focus on men's mental health. With alarming statistics showing that 75% of suicides are men, and that 1 in 10 Canadian men will experience major depression in the course of their lives, it is time to take a serious look at the issue. Men sometimes aren't comfortable reaching out, or think it might be a burden for their friends if they talk openly about life's challenges. If a man you know seems to be going through a tough time, they might not talk about it even if they want to. The first step in looking out for them is reaching out. You may not be able to fix someone else's problem, but you can be there for them. Sometimes listening is the most helpful things you can do. You won't make things worse by asking how he's doing. Before you start what may be a difficult conversation however, it's important to prepare yourself. What will you do if you ask them how they're doing, and the response is “not good”? Be yourself. You don’t have to be a counsellor or doctor, just a listening and empathetic ear. The Movember Foundation encourages us to Talk. Ask. Listen. Encourage action. Check in. Start with what you've seen. Maybe mention some of the things you've noticed about him lately. You might have noticed that he's spending more time alone, coming into work late, or missing social events. Starting the conversation with something along the line of, “You seem a bit stressed these days. Do you want to talk about it?” Don't be put off if he tries to avoid your questions, or brush them off. He may not be ready to talk. If this is the case, make sure he knows you're there for him when he's ready. If you're worried that he may be at risk of suicide, it's important that he gets connected to a physician or a mental health professional immediately. Don't be afraid to ask specifically and directly if he's having thoughts of suicide. Listen and let him know you hear what he's saying. The most important thing is to listen. If he's open to talking, make sure you don't interrupt. Don't try to diagnose his problems, offer solutions or give advice. Take what he says seriously, and don't judge him or how he's reacting to whatever's going on in his life. Don't diminish or dismiss what he's feeling. This may cause him to shut down. There are a few simple things you can do to encourage him to keep talking. Try nodding, asking open-ended questions, or ask about the things he's said. You don't have to know all the answers, but you can explore with him some of the options he might have. Mention some community resources, or reputable online resources where he can get more information on mental health. If you think he needs more, encourage him to see a doctor or mental health professional. Continue to check in with him. Set a reminder for yourself to send him a message or give him a call. You could suggest catching up in person, grab a bite to eat or do something together. Try not to make vague future plans – pick a time and commit. When you check back in, make sure he knows you're there when he needs you.

SLIP SLIDIN' AWAY Slip slidin' away. You know the nearer your destination, the more you're slip slidin' away (Simon & Garfunkel). I thought I saw snowflakes coming down not too long ago… and the first thing that crossed my mind was my back-deck stairs and how slippery they get in the winter! With the change in weather we are inevitably going to wipe out, so I asked Paige for some advice on how to deal with the sore butts we are about to encounter!
Paige would suggest taking Ibuprofen to help with pain and swelling that occurs after a fall. Although it is chilly outside, ice is suggested to help minimize pain, reduce muscle spam and relax the muscles as well as control inflammation. Ice should be applied for 15 to 20 minutes at a time or until you feel that the muscle is numb, several times a day. Try gentle daily stretches for your legs, hips and buttocks. To relieve pressure, use a cushion when you're sitting.
