Ottawa is at -35Ā°CāSafety First, Then We Thrive!
āStay warm, friends! Before you head out to play or work in this beautiful snow, please do a quick Safety Sweep of your home.
āWith the wind and heavy snow weāre seeing in Ottawa today, please check that your furnace and water heater vents are clear of snow and ice.
Blocked vents can cause carbon monoxide to back up into your homeāletās keep our āindoor environmentā safe before we go out to tackle the āoutdoorā one!
āNow, for those of us playing in the snow...
Donāt forget your Merino wool base layers. Itās the ultimate āsecond skinā for temperature regulation.
āI personally love the cold.
After shoveling my neighborsā paths this morning (mothering the unmothered!), I hit the snow for some push-ups.
āWhy? Because of Hormetic Stress.
Cold therapy is one of my favorite autophagy tools along with red light.
Itās a āgood stressā that triggers our cells to clean out the ājunkā and repair themselves.
This is why, at 59, I still have all my original body parts (minus my tonsils!) and have never touched Botox or fillers.
āMy Daily Resilience Routine:
āIce Face Rinse: For a fresh, natural glow.
āIce Baths and I put ice in a pot and dunk my face in it:
To build physical and mental muscle.
āThe ā30-Second Ruleā:
Go until you want to quit, then dig deep for 30 seconds more.
Thatās where the magic happens!
āWhen we change our relationship with our environment, we change our cells. We arenāt just āmentalā beings; we are biological miracles.
āWishing you peace in your moments this Saturday while we cheer on #TeamCanada at the #Olympics2026!
