A Month of Remembering
Chilly days and frost are upon us: just remember that Mother Earth is likely relieved for the break from forest fires and drought. Unfortunately, as the weather changes, so do our moods and bodies. One of the features this month focuses on social isolation and loneliness. It’s a great lead-up to the November Provincial Learning Event (PLE) on this topic on how to combat loneliness and increase happiness.
With colder, dark days, our aches and pains can be emphasized and you may wonder if you’re on the right medications. Last month’s PLE on over-prescribing is our other feature article this month. If you take a variety of drugs, it’s important to ensure they’re still right for you. But first – don’t quit your meds without a review!
And remember, daylight saving time ends on November 5 so set your clocks back an hour. Remembering is also important on November 11, Remembrance Day. But most of all, remember that all of us at BC CRN wish you a warm and cozy fall.
