      <image:title>Blog - When a Minimalist Meets an Essentialist - Eva, the Essentialist, and Mandy, the Minimalist, are about to share a two-bedroom apartment in downtown Toronto. Both are starting new jobs in Toronto and while they've been friends since university, they've lived very different lifestyles. They’re hoping to set up a place that lets them maintain work-life balance while creating a relaxing home.</image:title>
      <image:caption>Eva’s approach is focused, intentional, and disciplined—her Essentialism prioritizes impact over effort. Mandy’s Minimalism, on the other hand, is about living intentionally and responsibly, reducing unnecessary consumption to make space for what truly matters. Can they make this new shared space work?</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - Why Minimalism – A Personal Journey - I recall the 2020 pandemic lockdown vividly. During that time, I had the privilege of working remotely. My daily routine would start at 8:30 in the morning, coffee in hand, one eye on my laptop screen and the other on the window. Without fail, by 10 am., five or six delivery trucks would have already dropped off parcels of various sizes to my neighbours. Even a global pandemic couldn’t curb our collective shopping habits. I felt a pang of sadness thinking about the environmental impact of all those trucks on the road and the waste generated by all the packaging. Here in Canada, our online shopping habits thrive, and I couldn’t help but question the sustainability of it all.</image:title>

      <image:title>Blog - Minimalism and Wellbeing: A Fresh Perspective on Better Living - Global Flourishing</image:title>
      <image:caption>As my own study into the connection between minimalism and wellbeing unfolds, I hope to provide a guide—a roadmap for anyone curious about living with less. Minimalism isn’t just about decluttering your home; it’s about decluttering your mind, your heart, and your life. Could adopting this mindset help you feel more balanced, focused, and happier? What if this movement toward living with less is not merely a personal choice, but a step toward flourishing on a global scale?</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - Describe in One Word Why You Are a Minimalist - Despite living a minimalist lifestyle, I’m still burdened by what remains. Even after four years of a strict personal "No-Buy" policy since the pandemic began in 2020, the accumulation persists. It’s as though the things cling to me as much as I once clung to them.</image:title>

      <image:title>Blog - I Can Breathe Now - Many people have helped me complete this milestone. 1 ) I am grateful for my mentors who supported me through my University application. 2)The professors and TAs challenged and broadened my views through their instructions, directions, inspirations, and comments. 3) My classmates who worked tirelessly with me on group projects, and those who read and commented on my discussion forums, and the ones who corrected my APA formatting. Lastly, my family stood by me while I skipped the dishes, missed their calls, and forgot their birthday celebrations.</image:title>

      <image:title>Blog - An Aging Society #6: Overcoming the Stigma of Dementia</image:title>
      <image:caption>Canada has been responding to the urgent call for action to help minimize the impact of dementia-related diseases in the last decade as outlined by the 2010 Rising Tide Report commissioned by the Alzheimer Society of Canada. Much more work is required as the number of people living with dementia will double over this 30-year period. The Canadian families, our health care system, and the economy will see a crippling effect if we do nothing (Rising Tide, 2010). Canada is committed to address dementia. In June 2017, the National Strategy for Alzheimer’s Disease and Other Dementias Act was passed.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - An Aging Society #4: Confronting the Rising Tide of Dementia - Dementia is not a normal part of aging. Worldwide, around 50 million people have dementia, and nearly 10 million new cases every year. A new case of dementia is diagnosed every 3 seconds. The number of people with dementia is expected to increase to 82 million in 2030 worldwide, and 152 million in 2050. Huge economic impact costing US$818 billion per year. Caregivers of people with dementia experience high stressors including physical, emotional, and economic pressures. Early diagnosis improves the quality of life of people with dementia and their families. People with dementia and their families are often discriminated against. People with dementia are frequently denied the basic rights and freedom available to others. Awareness and advocacy are needed. More research and innovation are required. Research that identifies the modifiable risk factors of dementia is still scarce. Dementia is a public health priority. Resources and actions are critical for preventing and supporting dementia-related issues (7).</image:title>

      <image:caption>According to Alzheimer’s Disease International (1), dementia is not only a disease affecting older adults, young onset dementia can also sometimes affect people who are under the age of 65. Therefore, understanding the conditions and risk factors of dementia can help us in preventing and confronting this disease through early detection.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Top 6 Tips in Preventing Cognitive Decline 1)      Maintain Meaningful Social Activities As suggested by the Activity Theory, older adults have similar needs for social contacts and activities as their younger counterparts. They enjoy interacting and engaging with others. Social capital refers to meaningful social activities that are essential part of older people’s everyday life. They provide a sense of purpose and belongings. Through interactions, we maintain feelings of being needed and appreciated. Even regular day-to-day activities can bring joy and life satisfaction while promoting the sentiments of hope for the future (Forsman et al., 2012). 2)      Exercise Regularly Are you too busy sitting in front of your computer or TV? Physical activity is important for our overall health. Studies suggest that physical activity offers a protective factor on brain functioning for older adults. Regular intensive physical activities three times a week may promote the growth of new neurons in the aging brain. According to the Guidelines for Canadian adults, people aged 65 and older should accumulate at least 150 minutes of moderate- to vigorous- intensity activity per week. Keep each session to a minimum of 10 minutes stretch.   3)      Nutrition We live in a multi-cultural society. There are plenty of food choices and endless supplies of snacks, comfort food, convenient packaged products, etc. It is important to maintain a balanced diet. Follow the Canada food guide and make healthy eating your priority. The adherence to Mediterranean-style diets rich in vegetables, nuts, legumes, and fish is considered to benefit cognitive aging. Avoid high amount of meat, diary, refined sugars, trans-fat as these items are associated with negative effects impacting our aging brain (Klimova et al., 2017). See below for a sample scrumptious and wholesome meal plan:</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Imagine you were the driver in the picture. What would you do if you were driving home from the neighborhood but got stuck in between two slow-moving vehicles? You probably would not care too much about the one behind you. But you would be frustrated to have missed the green light because the old granny driving the blue Toyota Corolla in front of you decided to yield rather than make a swift right turn.</image:caption>

      <image:title>About - From East to West</image:title>
      <image:caption>Born and raised in Hong Kong, I fell in love with North America at fifteen when my geography teacher, Mr. Chin, introduced us to the majestic Rocky Mountains, the vast Great Lakes, three surrounding oceans, and the iconic Appalachian Mountains. I secretly promised myself that one day I would live in a place where mountains, oceans, and lakes are breathtaking, and where the values of liberty, fairness, and justice are deeply rooted. I also dreamed of speaking English as perfectly as the Queen of England.</image:caption>

      <image:title>About - Proud to be Canadian</image:title>
      <image:caption>Fast forward to today: I have lived in Ontario, Canada, since 1987 and relocated to the beautiful town of Squamish, British Columbia, in the fall of 2024. I am a mother of four adult children, who are my greatest reflections and sources of strength. My four grandchildren inspire me to live fully, keep learning, and give generously. My husband supports me unconditionally, allowing me to focus on my work, studies, and numerous projects. Professionally, my career can be categorized into 3 segments. They intertwine and enrich one another: Information Technology (IT) Consultant, Clinical Counselling, Trainer/Instructor, and Researcher. Academic Degrees PhD in Human Relationships - Martin Luther University College of Wilfrid Laurier University, Waterloo, ON, Canada Master of Science, Aging and Health - Queen’s University, Kingston, ON, Canada Master of Christian Counselling - Canada Christian College, Toronto, ON, Canada Bachelor of Science in Business Administration - California State University, Fresno, California, USA</image:caption>

      <image:title>Home-Scroll - Imagine…</image:title>
      <image:caption>Having a mentor who has the knowledge, skills, talents, experience, and eagerness to walk alongside you in your professional journey. Having access to someone who has been there, done that. Once you connect with Joyce, you can decide how often you’ll meet to discuss what you have in mind. How much does it cost? It will be sliding scale, based on your situation. Typically, it will cost between a hearty lunch and a fancy dinner. Pay based on the value you perceive. If you are looking for work, or a student, you can pay the minimum, which is the cost for a gourmet coffee. The key is, you have to invest in this relationship and commit to the growth journey. Otherwise, you may not take this seriously and end up wasting time for Joyce and yourself.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Born and raised in Hong Kong, I fell in love with North America at fifteen years old, when my Geography teacher Mr. Chin exposed us to the majestic Rocky Mountains, vast Great Lakes, and prominent Appalachian Mountains, etc. I made a secret pledge to myself, that one day I would live in a place where mountains and lakes are spectacular, and societal values are grounded in liberty, fairness, and justice. And, I would speak perfect English just like the Queen of England.</image:caption>
