W
hat comes to mind when you think of
resources?
There are natural resources —
forests, fresh water, and minerals. There are
financial resources — money in the bank and
those toonies in your pocket. Companies refer to
human resources — employees with skills and
knowledge who make the company work.
If you live in a rural area, it’s likely that you,
or someone you know, has a stack of
scrap wood in the shed. In the house,
there’s probably a collection of fabric
suttles and spare buttons.
One definition of a resource is “a
source of supply in reserve.” You
might not think of those scraps as
resources, but that’s what they are,
and when you need a shim, it’s nice
to be able to go to the “resource pile”
and get one.
If only the scrap wood pile could
serve as an all-purpose resource!
However, different situations call for
different resources. Personal probReality
lems, relationship problems, emotional problems — they call for emotional
resources.
If you have ever felt at the end of
your emotional tether, then you know why it
would be helpful to have a stack of emotional
resources in reserve.
So, what are some emotional resources?
Here’s a start: Optimism, gratitude, satisfaction,
faith, joy, pride, cheerfulness, courage, confidence, hope, resilience, trust, and so on.
Some people seem to effortlessly fill their lives
with those resources. Others can hardly imagine
a life where those feelings would play a significant role in their lives.
If you are in the second group, do you want to
make a change?

According to choice theory, emotion is led by
action. So if you want to change your feelings,
the route to change is through what you are
doing.
Try focusing on one positive resource you’d
like to build, and work on actions that can cause
it.
For example, say you want to build a stronger
sense of gratitude. Develop a practice of taking
actions — even small actions — that
invoke the feeling of appreciation and
gratitude in you.
Because choice theory also suggests that satisfaction comes through
relationships, try finding opportunities to appreciate people to build that
sense of gratitude. For example, build
a snow critter with your children
and appreciate their creativity. Take
a walk with your neighbour and appreciate the natural beauty around
you. Cook a meal with your partner
and appreciate the taste and texture
of every bit of the food. Read a poem
Check
to your friend and appreciate the
sound and flow of the words. Smile
at a stranger and appreciate their
response.
If that’s a little too touch-feely for you, then
deliberately look for something to appreciate in
a difficult situation. For example, I’ve recently
developed a pretty strong sense of appreciation
for the snow blower.
Which emotional resource do you most want
to build? Can you come up with actions to take
so as to increase that emotion in your life? Let
me know at [email protected] or by
mail c/o Lighthouse Log.
To your choices!

Beach day
Kasey Andrews and his
family spent a recent
Sunday afternoon skiing the boardwalk and
beach at Rissers Beach.
his past Saturday morning I was
enjoying a cup of tea and perusing
Facebook, as I sometimes do, when
I noticed a friend posted a link to an article titled “Why Millions of
Grownups are Buying These
Colouring Books.”
Of course I was intrigued.
I followed the link to the
website to read a review of
a book produced by artist
Johanna Basford called “Secret Garden,” which is full of

Apparently, adult colouring is

books for adults. Who knew?
This may very well have
been the first time I had ever
heard of anyone over the age
of 10 admit that they love to colour, but
I have to say, colouring is kind of awesome.
I remember when my kids were young
and they would ask to me colour with
them and I would be down on the floor
colouring superheroes with broken Cray-
ola crayons long after the kids moved on
to another task. And admit it, you probably did too. Colouring is just relaxing,
it can take no real thought, it creates no
stress and it’s pretty easy.
The article’s author, Kelsey
Campbell-Dollaghan, in my
opinion, identified perfectly
what it is about colouring
that is so appealing for adults.
Colouring is nostalgic. We
remember colouring as kids,
long before we had mortgages,
jobs and the stresses that we
have in life. Even reading the
article made me want to colour; so much so that I clicked
the link to buy the book.
However, I wanted the book
now, not in seven to 10 business days. So, what would be

about this really random book
and it being at my local Coles bookstore
in the Bridgewater Mall? There was only
one way to find out.

to the mall and there is was — not just one copy, but several.
I snapped one up, as well as the book, “Persuasion” by Arleen Dickenson — a book I had been eyeing for awhile — and
made my way to the counter to pay. There, I happened to find
my new friend, John from Tancook Island.
I remembered John from my last trip to the bookstore and
he remembered me, and he even told me how much he enjoys my column. John is a big advocate for Tancook Island,
the place he calls home during the summer with his wife,
and he encouraged me to experience the magic the Island
has to offer for myself. I had a lovely time, right there in
Coles, something that I would never have experienced had
I bought the book on-line, which is just another reason of
many to support local.
As an aside, let me just say, I cannot wait to explore Tancook Island this summer. I’ve never been there before, but
you can expect to read about it here.
Now, back to my colouring book. I got it home and marveled at the beautiful illustrations. It is art on it’s own and I
worried about wrecking it. I dug out the bucket of coloured
pencils the boys use for homework and made my way down

deny that it felt a little silly, and the laundry pile taunted me
from the laundry room, but I persevered.
Art of any kind can soothe the soul and make the heart
feel good, just like a nice cup of tea or meeting a new friend.

Too old to climb on your curtains, but young enough
to climb on your lap. What’s not to love? Adopt a Senior
Cat!
HAID is thrilled to tell you all that several cats
found forever homes last week. We are so happy
for Sandy, one of the three Himalayans that
has been waiting a long time was adopted. Hooray for
Sandy. Skylar was also adopted to a wonderful family.
Clyde has found a wonderful family, too, and SHAID is
very happy that Sissy and Bubby could remain together
in their new forever home. It is great when people can
open their heart and their home to two cats so they remain together.
SHAID currently has several senior cats waiting for
a loving home. SHAID considers any cat over the age of
seven to be a senior. SHAID understands that the correct age to be classed a senior is not seven, but we feel
it is an important key to finding a loving home for each
senior cat at SHAID.
There are many benefits to adopting a senior rather
S
Seniors at SHAID
than a kitten or a young cat. Seniors are settled,
over the playful and sometimes destructive
stage. They have developed a definitive personality that you can see before you adopt them.
SHAID also has a lesser adoption fee for cats
over seven years of age. In fact, it is half of the
regular adoption fee.
SHAID encourages people to consider giving
senior cats the loving home they deserve. If
healthy, cats will generally live well into their
teens, so adopting a senior at SHAID still ensures a
lengthy timeframe of love from your new pet. It also ensures a happy and loving retirement for these cats — so
at SHAID we ask you to give a senior cat a second look,
and a chance to enjoy a families love and affection.
Currently at SHAID for seniors is CJ, a 10 year old
male cat. CJ is a cream/orange colour and he would
love a great retirement home. With the love and patients of SHAID staff, CJ has transformed from a
cranky boy to a sweet boy since arriving at SHAID,
he is a beautiful boy
waiting for someone to
adopt and love him.
Jack is also 10 years
old and he is also a
great boy. Jack has a
unique personality, he
loves people and affection but isn’t all that
fussy about other cats.
Jack is all black with the
odd tuff of white. Jack will be a great companion for
a quiet family.
Cuddles is a beautiful Himalayan, she is nine years
old and does have an issue with using her litter pan.
Cuddles does not like out-of-the ordinary or new situations and we feel this is a key factor in her litter pan
mishaps. Cuddles also prefers not to be left alone for
extended period of time, this can cause her to become
stressed. A quiet home will be best for Cuddles.

Why You Need Vitamin C and
Lysine for Heart Health and More...
W. Gifford-Jones, MD
V
itamin C is arguably the
single most important
water soluble antioxidant
in the human body. Antioxidants play a key role in
protecting cells against free
radicals, which can cause
damage and play a role in
heart disease, cancer and other diseases.
It’s tragic that researchers are unaware that high
doses of vitamin C and lysine cannot only prevent, but reverse atherosclerosis in coronary and
other arteries in the body. Vitamin C is needed
for the manufacture of collagen, the glue that
holds cells together. A lack of vitamin C means
poor collagen, resulting in cracks appearing between coronary cells thus setting the stage for
fatal blood clot.
Recently, Dr. Sydney Bush, an English researcher, made this monumental discovery. He took
photos of the retinal arteries and then gave patients 6,000 milligrams of vitamin C and 5,000
of lysine (lysine adds strength to coronary arteries
just like steel rods increase the strength of concrete). A year later he repeated the pictures. To
his surprise, he found atherosclerosis fading away.
Millions of North Americans also suffer from
osteoarthritis. Without sufficient vitamin C to
produce collagen, a major component of cartilage, bone eventually grinds on bone. There
would be fewer joint replacements if more vitamin C were available to produce healthy collagen.
due to inadequate amounts of vitamin C. This
vitamin is needed in large amounts to produce
healthy collagen, the glue that holds cells together and keeps gums healthy. Without good mortar bricks fall apart and the same happens when
gums lacking collagen lose their grip on teeth.
The essential amino acid lysine is probably best
known for its use in those with herpes simplex
infections but several other benefits have been
ascribed to the molecule, including favourable effects on blood pressure and stroke prevention but
also a positive influence on mood and anxiety.
In addition to providing healthy collagen production and a healthy cardiovascular system, vitamin
C and lysine supplementation helps support:
• Immune system health
• Vision
• Teeth and gums
• Wound healing
• Bones and cartilage
• Recovery from shingles
• Recovery from herpes outbreaks
This is why I’ve been taking high doses of
vitamin C and lysine for the last 16 years
following a heart attack. I believe it saved my
life. Medi-C Plus™, containing high doses of
vitamin C and lysine, is available in powder
and capsules.
Rheumatoid arthritis, the inflammatory type,
also requires large doses of vitamin C. Every moment of the day our bodies are using oxygen to
keep us alive. But oxidation results in metabolic
ash, known as “free radicals”, which are believed
to trigger an inflammatory reaction in joints.
Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant that helps
to reduce damaging free-radicals.
Patients often appear surprised when I tell them
that vitamin C will help them keep their teeth a
lifetime. By age 65 one in five North Americans
has lost all their teeth and many of their teeth
were normal. Rather, it was the gums that could
no longer hold teeth firmly in place in part
