So one day  I heard someone say #ByeFelicia, with keeping that in mind Emotional vampires are lurking everywhere and wear many different disguises–from needy relatives to workplace bullies. Whether they do so intentionally or not, these people can make us feel overwhelmed, depressed, defensive, angry, and wiped out. The phrase " Bye, Felicia " came from the American stoner buddy crime comedy film  Friday  (1995). According to  Ice Cube , who starred in the film and co-wrote its script, "Bye, Felicia" is "the phrase 'to get anyone out of your face.'" [ 1 ] You can’t live a positive life around negative people. Sadly, some people love  seeing the negative side of things that they leave zero room for positive things to grow. The first step to

So you are thinking of seeing a naturopath or a homeopath?   Did you know ? A homeopathic practitioner is trained only in homeopathy, while a naturopathic doctor has the training, education and expertise to design an overall treatment program that draws on a number of therapies, including homeopathic remedies. Knowing the difference is the start. Let JA Nursing assist with those  choices. To become a naturopath in Ontario:  let's just learn who you may be consulting about your health.
