Campvention meeting rescheduled
(NC)—Inclement weather can force even the most
active people indoors and mid-winter depression is
common in colder climates like Canada. St. John
Ambulance, the national leader in first aid training and
products, suggests these simple ways to beat the winter
blahs.
1. Keep active. Exercise is a healthy alternative that
will keep your mind and body in shape.
2. Get fresh air. Get outside, even for brief periods,
to cleanse your mind and revitalize your spirit.
3. Avoid alcohol or drugs. Chemical depressants can
have detrimental effects anytime and can trigger
depression.
4. Soak up some sun. Going out on a sunny winter
day can help to increase your level of Vitamin D, a
natural depression-fighter. Moderate use of tanning
beds is another alternative.
5. Get plenty of rest. Fatigue can be harmful in many
ways, including your mental disposition.
6. Be involved. Social and recreational activities are
a great way to chase away the blues while also
providing healthy exercise and stimulating mental
activity.
7. Eat right. Cold, dark days can rob your body of
essential nutrients. Make sure you feed your needs.
8. Take a holiday. You don't have to take an
expensive vacation to reduce the effects of day-to-day
stress. Give yourself a break regularly—even an
afternoon outing will make a positive difference.
9. See your doctor. Sometimes depression gets out of
control. In fact, it can be a medical condition that
requires treatment. If you can't seem to shake the
blues, see your doctor for help.
10. Exercise your mind. Long winter days are a great
time to learn new skills, which will occupy your time
and keep your mental faculties alert.
First aid training is your best defence in an
emergency. St. John Ambulance is Canada's leading
provider of high quality courses and first aid products.
Take it from the best. Contact the St. John Ambulance
office nearest you or visit the web site www.sja.ca .

This past weekend we have seen
Mother Nature at her worst.
After having very little snow we
now have several feet of snow piled
up.
I have no church news as many
church services were cancelled in
the area yesterday.
Many roads are closed and most
all schools are closed today
except for the schools in the cities
and many meetings have had to be
cancelled.
The children have lots of snow to
play in on their snow day.
The weather affected many Super
Bowl parties as the visibility
was not good and many highways
were closed and are still closed
today.
We have to get back to winter
driving as we didn't have to worry
about it for the month of January.
A meeting planned to discuss
Campvention that was originally
scheduled for Feb. 8 at 8 pm
has been rescheduled for
Monday, Feb. 20, 2006 at
7:30 p.m.
It will be held upstairs at
the Blyth Community Centre.
Don't let winter get you down
