Stats Canada: home insurance rates up 21%, 2019-2023. Wildfires, floods, etc. means pressure on the insurance industry. How long before you can't pay? Or the industry simply collapses? I think we've cooked enough, fellow frogs, it really is time to add your voice.

Solution Focused & Self Compassion | I'm overly critical and not sure what to do about it I paused for a moment with the answer, or maybe just an answer that criticism towards others begins in the self so the solution with that established is self compassion, A self compassion letter follows suit: I see that you are critical towards others and I also see this causes distress for you this shows that no, you're not a bad person, (if a person can be bad, a different discussion) but rather it's a normal human experience to seek to compare, especially in this society it's heavy to hold that sort of feeling; where is it held, in your stomach? In your chest? Take in a deep breath through your nose and out through your mouth to activate the parasympathetic nervous system, decrease your cortisol and adrenaline, and assure your amygdala that you are not in danger, no need to flee to remember life is not an emergency remember that shame is blame and there's no need to blame yourself or anyone else, rather what is something you can do now to move toward your goals personally?

Some ideas to help us make 2025 a Sustainable Christmas. We missed the first 4 days of December but today's Dec. 5 and tonight I'm definitely going to act on that suggestion. #environmentfirst #solutionfocused #sustainablemilton #sustainableholidayseason

Great crowd for the September EcoFilm Night! Lots of interesting questions for the director, Emmett Brennan, who joined us via Zoom following the screening. "Reflections: a Walk with Water" made an impression on us all.
