Balancing beauty and eye health with eyelash extensions: Expert advice from your eye doctor
Eyelash extensions have swiftly risen to fame for their ability to transform the look of your eyes, adding allure and charm with longer, fuller lashes. As this beauty trend continues to capture the hearts of many, it’s crucial to recognize the potential risks they pose to your precious eye health. In this article, we explore these risks and provide essential tips to help you enjoy the beauty of eyelash extensions safely. Please visit: vancouvereyedr.ca IG Handle @dr.mahnia.madan for more details.
Risks to eye health: 1. Allergic Reactions: Eyelash extensions can trigger an allergic reaction due to the adhesive used in applying the extensions. These reactions can manifest as redness, swelling, pain and itching in the eyes. The American Academy of Ophthalmology highlights that several eyelash extension adhesives contain formaldehyde, a known irritant that is potentially damaging to the cornea and eyelids. 2. Infections: Inadequate cleaning of eyelash extensions can lead to an infestation of eyelash mites (demodex) at the base of the eyelashes, a condition known as blepharitis, which can result in eye infections, styes, loss of lashes, redness, pain, and dry eyes. 3. Damage to Natural Eyelashes: The added weight of eyelash extensions places stress on your natural lashes, causing them to weaken and break. Frequent infections at the eyelid margins or over wear of eyelash extensions can also contribute to the loss of your natural lashes. If you observe any of these signs, it’s essential to cease using eyelash extensions and promptly consult your eye doctor for evaluation. Recommendations to Reduce Risk: 1. Choose a Reputable Technician: Before undergoing any cosmetic procedure, thorough research is crucial. Ensure the technician you choose is certified, experienced, and strictly follows health and safety protocols.

Eyelash extension leading to swollen, puffy eyelid due to poor eyelid hygiene recommended by your eye doctor to keep your eyelashes clean and help prevent eyelash mite infestations and styes. 3. Reduce the Frequency of Eyelash Extensions: Everything in moderation. Consider reducing eyelash extension frequency and give your eyes a break. Alternatively, consider false eyelashes. They offer the same charm and can be easily applied and removed at your convenience, promoting better eyelid hygiene. Putting it all together While eyelash extensions
can enhance your beauty, it’s crucial to be aware of the potential risks they may pose to your eye health. By understanding these risks and following the recommendations provided, you can indulge in the allure of eyelash extensions while minimizing the chances of adverse effects. Should you experience any discomfort or allergic reactions, it’s always best to consult with your optometrist for expert guidance and care. Beauty and safety can coexist, ensuring your eye’s remain as captivating as ever. November 2023

hen applying for life insurance, you go through underwriting, which determines whether you can get coverage and how much it will cost. In this article, we’ll guide you through the eight simple steps to ensure your application goes smoothly.
Your guide to life insurance: Eight simple steps Life insurance is an essential tool for safeguarding your family’s financial future.
Just so you know, as an independent Insurance Advisor working through Punjab Insurance Agency, I can help you explore various insurance plans and coverage options that are suitable for your needs and budget. Whether it’s life insurance, disability insurance, critical illness insurance, or other types of coverage, I’m here to assist you in making the right choices.
Step 1: Complete Your Application Accurately The first step is to fill out your application carefully. Being honest about your health, lifestyle, and medical history is crucial. I think it’s essential to provide accurate information. Step 2: Health Assessment Next, you may have a health check. This involves measuring your height, weight, and blood pressure. A blood test and urine check may also be performed to understand your health. Step 3: Reviewing Health History The insurance company might look at your medical history from the last few years using the Medical Information Bureau (MIB). They use this information to see what your previous applications said about your health. Step 4: Disclose Your Medications They’ll also check the medications you’ve been prescribed in recent years. It’s important to tell them about all your medications and medical conditions.
Step 5: Doctor’s Insight If the insurance company has more questions about your health, they may ask your doctor for a report. This report helps them understand your health better. Step 6: Your Driving Record Your driving history is also essential. They’ll review traffic tickets and accidents from the last seven years. Having a recent DUI on your record might affect your ability to get insurance. Step 7: Financial Check The insurance company will also check your financial stability. If you’ve had a
bankruptcy, it might affect your risk classification, making life insurance more expensive. Step 8: The Final Decision After all the checks and paperwork, the insurance company will inform you whether you’re eligible for insurance and how much it will cost. Conclusion Life insurance is a vital step in protecting your family’s financial well-being. Understanding these eight steps will help you navigate the process effectively. Please be honest and provide accurate information to get the best coverage for your family’s future.

Ryan Muir is General manager of The OpenRoad Honda, Burnaby Dealership which officially opened its doors this past September. We have the pleasure to sit down with Ryan to learn about who he is, and what motivates him in his personal life and his career in the automotive industry.
Ryan Muir, GM, OpenRoad Honda: R
Honest & Loyal in Work & Play
yan Muir is a car-guy, it’s a family affair that starts with his father. His journey through the automotive world has taken him from the east coast to the west coast of Canada, to various parts of the US. He now calls the west coast his home alongside his wife and children.
Ryan’s father Stephen Muir, now retired, was a regional parts and service manager for Chrysler for 30 years, “I was born and raised in Nova Scotia and I got my exposure to the car business through my father. I enjoyed talking and learning about the operation side of the business with
him and we both shared a love of cars. So talking about classic cars and new vehicles and things like that, I knew every model inside out and backwards.” Along his journey, Ryan has had mentors that inspired him in different aspects in the
corporate side of the industry. He credits Blake Clarke, one of his managers with Honda Canada. “He modeled how to remain even keel and steady and promote confidence within your team, just simply from your mannerisms and how you carry yourself. He was a quiet guy, not a big

With a customer centric approach, he has empathy and tries to understand where they’re coming from. “Like for us, we sell and service cars everyday, but most people don’t buy a car every day. It’s a relied upon resource in their life that they need to get to work, they need to get their kids activities. There’s a lot of stress and anxiety that can come around that. So you have to put yourself in their shoes and understand what it means to them.”
speech type of guy. He was never rattled. He was always confident, well spoken and had a lot of respect from everybody that he came into contact with.” Another role model that inspired Ryan is vice president sales and marketing for Jaguar Land Rover Canada Sam Perillo. “He is someone who did a very good job at hearing both sides of the table and creating a collaborative environment. He was very good at making people feel heard.” Ryan talks about his admiration for Christian Chia, CEO for the OpenRoad Auto Group. “He’s always accessible. With the size of our group, being the largest automotive group in BC and now we’ve expanded into the United States and Ontario as well as further expansion plans and with the growth of our organization, he’s still incredibly accessible, which is rare.” You can hear the pride in his
voice when Ryan talks about his wife Corinne. He tells us about her work as an educator and the compassionate approach she has to change the lives of her students. He tells us about his children Olivia who does dance, his son Sutton plays hockey, and the youngest, Hazel, who does a little bit of everything. What does Ryan do outside of work? “I’ve been on the same Mens league hockey team (goalie) for 15 years and have been playing with the same group of guys there and still enjoy that. It’s one of the few social things I still get to do on a regular basis.” Ryan is one of three boys, he reminisces about his childhood. His parents always encouraged them to be the best, to achieve anything they wanted. His mother would reinforce work ethic, “If you’re going to do something, do it well - see it through, never half-way.” His father made sacrifices so that they could have the life they did. He tells us about how his father
www.entertainmentmagazine.ca
would be sure to attend all of their activities, how they were the priority in his life. “My Father played hockey, but he stopped playing when we were born, because of his job and the travel. He wanted to be around more for us and support us in our activities and in our endeavors. In Nova Scotia, it’s not like here, like we don’t have ten rinks within 20 minutes of each other. We would most times travel like an hour or two each way. My father could have been at the opposite end of Nova Scotia visiting a dealership, and I would have a game and he would pass right by our home and make sure I was at the game.” Ryan, just like his father, makes his children’s activities a priority. Sometimes he’s at dance, and sometimes hockey. He cherishes every moment of it. He is the assistant coach on his son’s hockey team, “It has been really fun. It’s our first year of me coaching him.”
The dealership is fully stocked with vehicles to suit every lifestyle. There are a lot of new models, which postcovid you can touch and test drive. As far as innovation and the way of the future, Honda will be launching the Prologue which is their very first all electric vehicle and should be here early next year. “This dealership was built with that in mind as well, we have nine EV chargers, fast chargers, and superchargers. Advice for our readers: “Be honest, and loyal. Be true to who you are and what your values are and make sure that that’s how you represent yourself.”

This diwali Nikita Sharma
Diwali, a festival of light, hope and happiness is one of the biggest cultural celebrations that take place in India. It is celebrated across the length and breadth of the country in diverse ways and with great enthusiasm.

bring home love, light and a lot of laddoos
T
he festive fervor brought along Diwali is seen months before the occasion; people are excited, markets are decorated and the houses are illuminated with all sorts of beautiful lights. It’s a cultural extravaganza witnessed at its best. Diwali is not just a festival but a feeling that brings joy and happiness in the lives of many people. For some, the festival is associated with new clothes, shopping and a lot of festive food binging, for others it’s a reason to indulge in parties and gatherings, and for many it is that time of the year when they get their long due bonus and gifts at work that bring nothing but happiness. In short, a spirit of cheer and merriment engulfs every other person due to innumerable reasons. But do you know how and why this all started? Let’s take you to the roots of the festival. History and origins of Diwali Widely known as the ‘festival of Lights’, Diwali is a 5-day celebration, wherein friends and families get together and perform various rituals and indulge in merry making in their own ways. The festival is all about people lighting Diyas or earthen lamps in their houses, gobbling all sorts of delicacies, exchanging gifts, playing games and burning crackers. According to the Hindu lunar calendar, Diwali is observed on Amavasya or the no moon night and is an indication of a dawn of a New Year. The festival is considered to be a harbinger of new beginnings as it is believed that Goddess Lakshmi herself visits the houses of devotees in the middle of the dark night, and blesses them with wealth, good health, prosperity and happiness. It is called the festival of lights because it symbolizes the victory of light over
www.entertainmentmagazine.ca
darkness, hope over despair and good over evil. The history of Diwali can be traced back to thousands of years in ancient India. There are various legends revolving around the origin of this festival. Some believe it to be the celebration of the marriage of Lakshmi, the goddess of wealth, with Lord Vishnu and others believe it to be the birthday of goddess Lakshmi. The most widespread belief is that the festival is celebrated to mark the return of Lord Rama along with his wife, Sita and brother Lakshman, from a 14-year-long exile to the kingdom of Ayodhya. To commemorate the return of their king, the people of the kingdom illuminated each and every household with earthen lamps and hence, the festival of lights was observed.
to just one festival leaves no doubt about it. We now take you on a journey and give you a glimpse of this festival through the eyes of a common Indian man. We bet you don’t know the reasons behind the celebrations across different parts of India and the significance of the celebrations.
They say there is no other country as diverse, secular and vibrant as India and so many stories and legends pertaining November 2023
Hindu merchants in North India open their new account books and pray for success and prosperity during the coming year. People buy new clothes for the family. Employers, too, purchase new clothes for their employees. Homes are cleaned and decorated by day and illuminated by night with earthen oil lamps. 5. Illuminate your inner self: The lights of Diwali also signify a time of inner illumination of the soul. It is an opportunity to cultivate and enjoy eternal bliss.
The significance of the five days of celebration Each day of celebration of the festival has its own tale to tell. As per the legends, the first day, Naraka Chaturdasi marks the conquering of the demon Naraka by Lord Krishna and his wife Satyabhama. This is followed by Amavasya, the second day of Deepawali, which marks the worship of Lakshmi as she is said to be in her most benevolent mood, fulfilling the wishes of her devotees. The no moon day or Amavasya also tells the story of Lord Vishnu, who, in his dwarf incarnation, overcame the bully Bali and banished him to hell. It is believed that Bali is allowed to return to earth once a year to light millions of lamps and dismiss darkness and ignorance while spreading the radiance of love and wisdom. On the third day, famously known as Kartika Shudda Padyami, it is said that Bali steps out of hell and rules the earth according to the boon given by Lord Vishnu. The fourth day is referred to as Yama Dvitiya (also called Bhai Dooj), and on this day sisters invite their brothers to their homes for a Teeka ceremony. This is similar to the spirit of Rakshabandhan wherein, the brothers vows to protect the sister. Diwali also instills charity in the
hearts of people. Govardhan Puja, a commemoration by Vaishnavites, on the fourth day of Diwali is observed by feeding the poor on an incredible scale. The fifth day is observed as Dhanteras wherein many indulge in gambling and consider it to be auspicious. The Hindi word ‘Dhan’ means wealth and ‘Teras’ stands for the 13th. This celebration of wealth and prosperity occurs two days before the festival of lights. Card parties are a big trend due to this day. The tradition of gambling on Diwali also has a legend behind it. It is believed that on this day, Goddess Parvati played dice with her husband Lord Shiva. She decreed that whosoever gambled on Diwali night would prosper throughout the ensuing year. The spiritual significance of Diwali Beyond the lights, gambling, and fun, Diwali is also a time to reflect on life and make changes for the upcoming year. With that, there are several customs that revelers hold dear each year. 1. Give and forgive: It is common practice that people forget and forgive the wrongs done by others during Diwali. There is an air of freedom, festivity, and friendliness everywhere. 2. Rise and shine: Waking up during the Brahma muhurta (at 4 a.m., or one and a half hour before sunrise) is a great blessing from the standpoint of health, ethical discipline, efficiency in work, and spiritual advancement. The sages who instituted this Deepawali custom may have hoped that their descendants would realize its benefits and make it a regular habit in their lives. 3. Unite and unify: Diwali is a unifying event, and it can soften even the hardest of hearts. It is a time when people mingle about in joy and embrace one another.
6. Moving from darkness into light: The light empowers us to commit ourselves to good deeds. During Diwali, lights illuminate every corner of India, and the scent of incense sticks in the air mingled with the sounds of firecrackers signifies nothing but joy, togetherness, and hope. If you happen to ever visit India during this festive period, you can spend this festival in the most amazing ways in these beautiful places that have different ways and traditions revolving around the celebration of Diwali. 1. Kolkata: The mighty city of Kolkata brightens up in every way possible due to the massive celebration of Kaali Puja. Goddess Kaali is worshiped in huge pandals (tents) that are decked up like a bride on her wedding day. The lip smacking food available in the city during this time is a cherry on cake. 2. Goa: Since many people indulge in gambling as part of the Diwali fervor, the casinos in Goa are a sight to behold. It is fun and merry making all across the city, it is less crowded and nnot very busy unlike other months since a majority of Indians prefer to celebrate the festival with their families; this is considered as the best time to visit the party capital of India. 3. Amritsar: Even though Amritsar, home of the Golden Temple, is predominated by Sikh, Diwali is celebrated in a grand way there too. It is because this day marks the return from prison of the sixth Sikh Guru, Guru Hargobind Sahib, in 1619. He had been irrationally held for his beliefs, along with many others who he helped free. Also, the foundation stone of the Golden Temple was laid on Diwali, in 1577. So, expect to see an exciting display of fireworks over the Golden Temple on this day.

Meet the man behind
JC Optical and Hearing W
ith a belief in the quote, “Giving up is way harder than trying” and a strong will, Jason Cheema, the owner of JC Optical and Hearing took a big leap in a foreign land almost two decades back. His kindness, willingness to help others and work with multiple communities made him what he is today. When he obtained his optician’s license in 2005, Jason already knew he wanted to open his store. But he always thought about distinction. “There were so many opticians all around so why would someone choose me?” he wondered. Then a colleague told him about a hearing aid practitioner program. He decided to enroll in the program so that he could get his license and could offer both the services to his clients. In 2015, he founded JC Optical and Hearing in Surrey. Offering both services increased traffic
in the store. The idea worked wonders and some people who would only purchase opticals became hearing aid clients and vice versa. Also, the people who came in for vision care regularly recommended and referred other people for hearing aids and services. The store advertises both the services offered to clients. They provide customers with complete optical and aural health care examinations to better assess their hearing and vision. With a clinic in the heart of Surrey, British Columbia, they cater to the customer’s needs with friendly service, affordable prices and high-quality glasses from brands like Gucci, Jimmy Choo, Bvlgari and more. They also offer comprehensive
eye exams, contact lenses, prescription sunglasses and eyeglasses, hearing tests as well as hearing aids. They also organize cross-promotions, such as offering a free frame with the purchase of a hearing aid. With an ever growing market, staying up to date with educational training, attending seminars, conferences along with strong connections with colleagues has helped him stay aligned with the latest trends in the market. He says being a good listener and gaining all sorts of knowledge about his field of work has helped him throughout his career. Cheema also has ambitions for the future of his practice. He has already opened new offices in Langley and Abbotsford. He also expanded his clinic in Surrey in 2022. “The goal is to have 10 locations within 3 years,” says Cheema. His business has been awarded the best optical and hearing clinic
12
www.entertainmentmagazine.ca
multiple times in Surrey and he gives the credit to his never say no attitude and his amazing team members. “I believe in a team approach and work hand in hand with my employees. We all work together and in case there are some hard decisions to make, I always have their back,” he added. To fulfil their social responsibility, JC Optical and Hearing also supports multiple community projects and events such as the local field hockey league, teaching optical students, contributing to local food banks and donating their time to local youth groups. On the family front, he says “I have a good support system at home with my wife always being there to help and assist even with business chores. I also have reliable employees who allow me to take time off whenever needed.” Outside of work Jason indulges in playing field hockey, traveling, and spending time with his family. By: Nikita Sharma

hen Murtaja Khan, Nawab of Lahore, noticed that Guru Ji had constructed Sri Akaal Takht Sahib, ‘The Throne of the Almighty’, at Amritsar, and was also strengthening his army, he informed about it to the Mughal Emperor Jahangeer. He emphasized that he is making preparations to take revenge for his father’s torture and martyrdom. Jahangeer at once sent Wazir Khan and Guncha Beg to Amritsar to arrest Guru Hargobind Sahib Ji..
Bandi Chhor Divas a tale of courage, valor and selflessness
But Wazir Khan who was a devotee of the Sikh Guru’s requested the Guru to accompany them to Delhi as Emperor Jahangeer wanted to meet him. Guru Sahib accepted the invitation and reached Delhi. On their first meeting when Jahangeer saw the Guru, he was completely won over by his youthful charm and holiness. The Emperor gave a royal welcome to the Guru. But Chandu Shah could not bear it. His daughter was still unmarried and thus the rotten sore was still bleeding (that Guru Arjan Dev Ji and the Sikh Sangat had refused the offer to marry his daughter with his son Guru Hargobind Sahib Ji). At Agra, the Emperor fell seriously ill. The physicians tried their best but they failed to care him. Then Chandu Shah conspired with the astrologers, who were asked to tell the Emperor that his sickness was due to wrong track of stars and it could, be cared only if some holy man goes to Gwallior Fort to offer prayers to the deity. He also pointed out that Guru Hargobind Ji was such a holy man and he should be asked go to Gwallior Fort. At the Emperor’s request Guru Ji agreed and left for the Gawalior Fort. In the fort Guru Ji met many princes who were detained there due to political reasons.
They were leading a very deplorable life. With the help of Hari Dass (the governor of fort) Guru Ji improved their condition. Hari Daas was a Sikh of Guru Nanak and he become ardent devotee of Guru Hargobind. Once when Chandu wrote to Hari Daas to poison Guru Sahib, he at once placed that letter before Guru Ji. When several months passed and Guru Ji was not released then Baba Buddha Ji and other devotees sikhs met the Guru. They informed him about the despicable condition of the Sikhs, who were waiting for him with great eagerness. The Guru assured them that they should not worry, he would join them soon. In the meantime
www.entertainmentmagazine.ca
Sai Mian Meer Ji met Jahangeer and asked him to release the Guru. Jahangeer, who had fully recovered ordered Wazir Khan to release Guru Sahib. But Guru Ji declined to leave the fort unless the princes confined in the fort were also released. When Wazir Khan informed the Emperor about the desire of the Guru Ji, the Emperor was forced to agree, though he didn’t want to free the prisoners. But the Emperor put down the condition that “whoever can hold on to the Guru’s cloak can be released.” Having compassion for others, Guru Sahib was determined to get the fifty–two Hindu princes prisoners freed. He had a cloak made with 52 corners, for each King to hold on to and Guru Ji finally left the fort with all fifty-two princes. As the Guru liberated all the prisioners he is known as Bandi-Chhor (Liberator). Jahangeer was very much pleased with his Goodness. He ordered Wazir Khan to bring Guru Hargobind Sahib in his court at Delhi with great honour. Jahangeer had realised that he was wrong for torturing and killing His father (Guru Arjan Dev Ji), who had not committed any crime or offense. He exonerate himself by
indicting the crime on Chandu Shah and other officers. A Gurudwara known as BandiChhor is built at the place where Guru Ji stayed during his detention. The Sikhs celebrate this day as Bandi Chhorr Divas i.e., “the day of release of detainees” and illuminations are made in the Gurdwaras and in homes. What do we learn from BandiChhor Diwas? 52 Hindu Kings were freed with Guru Sahib. Guru Sahib could have left the Fort alone, however, Guru Ji thought of others before himself. For him the ohers freedom and rights were more important than his own. Guru Ji never thought only of his emancipation but was concerned about everyone’s emancipation (SARBAT DA BHALLA). This is the attitude and virtue which Guru Ji wanted to fill within his Sikhs. We should pray for His mercy. May WAHEGURU emancipate our soul from five dreaded vices and help us to enjoy real essence of light within.
MAY THE LIGHT THAT WE CELEBRATE AT DIWALI SHOW US THE WAY AND LEAD US TOGETHER ON THE PATH OF PEACE AND SOCIAL HARMONY. Courtesy: Allaboutsikhs.com

Creating a Great Dining Experience at IHOP To be successful, you have to have your heart in your business, and your business in your heart. And eventually, everything falls into place.

or Gary, it all started back in 1987. “I was working for Canadian Airlines when an opportunity came up to manage an IHOP restaurant with the possibility of one day owning our own restaurant. My wife and I gave it a lot of thought and decided to go
www.entertainmentmagazine.ca
for it. Back then, I started with managing the Langley IHOP for 7 years and then the Surrey location came available for ownership and we jumped at the opportunity in 1995.” Ever since then, Gary has never looked back and has put his heart and soul in running
this iconic place. He gives the credit of his success to his hard work and a great team. He said, “When opening a new restaurant, you put in a lot of long hours. 60 -100 hours a week became the norm initially. You need to rely on others and eventually hire managers to help. Most of the staff members have been here for 15 to over 28 years. They know how I like to run things; I can rely on them when I need to take time off.” He not only appreciates the hard work and effort that his staff puts in at work; but he also lends a hand at work whenever needed. “At times it can be busy. You’re trying to get the people in as fast as possible, running to clear, wipe, and set tables, but then, there are a few moments when we are waiting for tables to become available, and I can go around filling customer coffee cups and chatting with them,” he said.

his store. This particular IHOP franchise is not only famous for its lip-smacking food but also for the smiling faces that greet people once they arrive to satisfy their hunger. Gary takes care of the slightest details to ensure that the customers have a great experience. “It is our goodwill and hard work that not only adults as well as children are excited when they walk into IHOP. Often, the adults are looking forward to pancakes with syrup but children especially love our special happy face pancakes. Just this last weekend a father called me over and said his fiveyear-old son had something to say to me. He thanked me for the crayons and the children’s placemat for coloring. He was so sweet and it touched me deeply.” Gary feels interacting with the customers is a rewarding experience because many of them have become part of their IHOP family. You have to make a connection with the customer for them to come back to you. He is not only a favorite amongst his staff; he
is quite a crowd-pleaser too. His little unintentional acts of kindness make him a great businessman. Sometimes, he has to go out of the way to help his customers but he never shies away. “I remember a time when I carried a young child around the restaurant so the parents could eat in peace. In another instance, there was a father and son who operated a business nearby and came in often. They would ask me to sit and chat with them and we would solve all the world problems together. It was always a nice break in the day.”
have created an amazing IHOP family that I feel blessed to be leading and serving”, he said. The servers at his place ensure to inspect the food before it goes out to the customer. “It must be presentable and correct before leaving the service area. We stress teamwork and take pride in our exceptional service”, he added.
Gary also believes in leading by example and says, “I am always asking the servers if they need a hand with carrying food or serving beverages to their tables. During busy times I’m helping the hostesses with seating, clearing dirty tables, and setting them. I work alongside them and they know I’m here for them.
When asked about how IHOP keeps the menu fresh and appealing to both regular customers and newcomers, Gary said, “The R&D team is always trying different ideas and implementing them into different test restaurants across the USA and Canada. Different regions of both countries have different likes and dislikes. California’s menu will be slightly different compared to New York’s menu or Vancouver’s menu. All regions start with a core menu and then each region adds some of their own items for their areas.”
“Every day I am reminded of why I enjoy leading this amazing group of staff. Many of our customers and all my dedicated and wonderful staff
Gary is not just a good businessman; he is also an active member of the community. He has been supporting various sports and
art events in the past. “Football, hockey and marathons are just a few things I have been involved in. The Delta Stomp was an event that promoted artists and their paintings. For many years we, along with other IHOPs, have participated in fundraising for the BC Children’s Hospital too.” He feels the advent of technology has been a great game changer in the business. “Many years ago, when computers came into restaurants, it really improved the speed of customer service. Several upgrades over the years have helped advance operations not just in the service domain but also in ordering products. Skip and Uber are now the way of the future. For those who are unable to leave their place or business for lunch or the elderly who are homebound, this is a great tool for them. This can have an impact on the kitchen during busy times but we work through it and continue. We always want our customers to be satisfied, even if they are having our food from the comfort of their couch.” WRITTEN BY Nikita Sharma

S
kin problems like itchiness, dryness and flakiness can occur anytime if you’re not moisturizing your body enough. It is commonly observed that while many people take their skincare routine seriously, a majority of them neglect to moisturize the body. It is important to keep in mind that timing matters a lot when it comes to applying moisturizers. Therefore, knowing the appropriate time to apply body lotion is essential. Take a look at the ideal times to moisturize your body shared by Kimi Jain, Head of Retail, KIMRICA. Morning
Moisturizing the body in the morning sets your skin up to face countless irritants and environmental factors during the day. The skin is constantly exposed to harsh chemicals and pollutants when you’re outside which is why using a protective and soothing moisturizer while going out is necessary. Use a lotion that is a rich source of antioxidants and vitamins in order to help and protect your skin as well as provide a deep nourishing effect. After Shower, Shaving and Washing hands After you take a shower, your skin has the maximum moisture and moisturizers work effectively on hydrated skin. That is why dermatologists

always recommend applying moisturizer right after getting out of the shower. When applied early, moisturizers are able to trap some water that’s still in the body and hydrate the body.

The increasing use of antibacterial soaps and hand wash takes a toll on your hand disrupting the natural skin barrier. To protect your hands from cracking and dryness, you can use the brand’s Bouquet Hand Lotion that comes with a rich combination of sweet almond oil, Shea butter, grape seed extracts, Olive Oil and Jojoba Oil. During and After Your Flights Travelling makes your skin dryer, the reason being the low humidity and the recycled air inside. As body lotions are available in small sizes, it is advisable that you should carry your body lotion and apply it during your flight and once you land as this will help in combating the skin drying issue.
Before Bed Research has shown that the skin effectively repairs itself from 10 p.m. to 11 p.m. That’s why you should always make sure to moisturize your skin on or before this time. Also, it has been observed that the skin’s transeepidermal water loss increases during sleep which takes away plenty of moisture from the skin. So, all these reasons make it quite clear as to why you should always moisturize your body before going to sleep. After Exfoliation Exfoliation is an important step in any skincare routine but applying body lotion post exfoliating is equally required. Exfoliating results in the removal of dead skin cells which makes space for a new layer of skin. Applying body lotion will help to soothe the top layer of skin and also strengthen the moisture barrier. Before Workout Workout sessions are often sweaty and tiring but preparing your skin before stepping out is very important as exercising outside often leads to dryness. Applying light-weight body lotion before your session is recommended. Source: IANSLife

7 skincare mistakes to avoid in winter
I
f you use sunscreen every day and have a variety of skincare products on your counter, you probably believe your beauty routine is flawless. However, there are some simple steps that many of us take every day that may reduce the quality of our skincare. Dr. Jatin Mittal, cosmetologist and skin expert at Abhivrit Aesthetics in New Delhi, reveals seven skincare blunders you’re probably not aware you’re committing. Drying your face with a towel Many of us go for a towel to dry our faces as soon as we finish washing them. You must stop doing this immediately since dirty towels can harbor bacteria and exacerbate acne on your face and back if not washed daily. Dr. Jatin instead advised washing your towels frequently or air drying your face and applying skincare while it was still moist. However, avoid doing so while utilizing active ingredients such as salicylic acid, retinol, niacinamide, and vitamin C. Applying skin care products in the wrong order If you apply moisturizers, serums, and retinol to your face at random, it’s likely that they won’t work as well as they should. According to Dr. Jatin, applying skincare should be done in a certain order, from thinnest to thickest products.
Forgetting to reapply sunscreen “If you apply sunscreen every day as directed, you may assume your routine is set in stone. You must, however, reapply SPF every two hours. Particularly if you have hyperpigmentation, a condition in which some areas of your skin get darker as a result of UV exposure or acne scars.” says Dr. Jatin. Applying your hyaluronic acid to dry skin To get the most out of hyaluronic acid, apply it to damp skin rather than dry skin and follow it up with a moisturizer,

according to skincare experts. Using your fingers to scoop out your product You must be cautioned against scooping goods from jars with your fingers or fingernails. Doing so could reintroduce bacteria into your cream. You must wash your hands thoroughly before dipping them into your products or using a scoop or spatula that you wash and dry after each use. Ignoring signs of dehydration Tight, flaking skin is a common sign of dehydration. To restore the moisture barrier and boost the water content of
dry skin, Dr. Jatin suggests using a hyaluronic acid-based moisturizer in the morning and a heavier moisturizer at night. Not removing makeup before going to bed It’s true; that’s why you’ve heard it a million times. “Makeup left on all night will damage your skin. Additionally, it stops your skin from going through its nightly repair cycle. The product settles into fine wrinkles. Even with skin-friendly mineral makeup, the day’s oil, grime, and debris should be removed each night with a cleansing routine.” concludes Dr. Jatin. By: N. Lothungbeni Humtsoe

What is the right age to start using hyaluronic acid?
I
f you search for any skincare advice, there’s a high chance you’ll stumble upon an ingredient called hyaluronic acid. From serums to moisturizers, to aesthetic procedures, hyaluronic acid has become the magic potion in today’s skincare routines. But what is hyaluronic acid? If you’re suffering from rough and dull skin, with an increase in fine lines and overly visible pores, it means your skin needs water. Lack of hydration is often the underlying cause behind secondary issues like premature aging and acne, too. And this is where hyaluronic acid steps in. It is the key to smooth, flawless and hydrated skin.
Hyaluronic acid is naturally present in the human body -it acts as a magnet, drawing in and retaining moisture in a binding process that instantly improves skin’s hydration levels. Each molecule can hold up to 1000 times its weight in water. Due to free radicals, toxins in the environment, and aging, the level of hyaluronic acid tends to decrease and then the skin needs supplemental hyaluronic acid. This super ingredient also plays an important role in skin elasticity, metabolism, skin regeneration, and healing. The result is plump skin with glowing, healthy skin with reduced fine lines, dullness, and uneven texture.
outstanding substance. From boosting skin, eye, and joint health to accelerating wound healing, it covers them all. Hyaluronic acid is usually well-tolerated by most skin types and choosing one comes down to personal preference. In general, people in their 20s and 30s can benefit from using this product. Due to hormones and stress factors, this age group tends to need extra moisture and hydration for their skin. As for those in their 40s and above, they, too, can get excellent results from using hyaluronic acid as it stimulates collagen production, fosters a more moisturized environment,
enhances the skin’s natural repair and regeneration processes, and diminishes signs of aging. For those considering early anti-aging measures, hyaluronic acid is a recommended starting point. Treatments like Profhilo, generally safe with no known side effects, operate on multiple levels to sustain youthful, radiant, and healthy skin. It’s imperative, however, to only undergo such procedures under the care of a licensed, qualified medical professional.

Discussing racism goes beyond mere talk; it’s a heartfelt call to action - Imroz Khosa
Imroz Khosa and Sahib Sidhu Inspiring Young Minds with their Anti-Racism presentation an equitable society drives my actions and guides my path. Racism, a deeply established issue, continues to impact the foundations of equity and diversity, demanding our attention. In a world that promotes diversity and inclusivity, we must engage in open, honest conversations about racism. These discussions are necessary to educate ourselves and others, nurture understanding, and bring much-needed positive change.
As an 11th-grade high school student, I am dedicated to raising awareness about social justice issues, particularly racism, through my involvement in the antiracism initiative of the Progressive Intercultural Community Services (PICS) society.

To combat racism effectively, we must consider its roots as a deeply entrenched systemic issue. Historical injustices, stereotypes, and prejudices sustain it. Education is the key catalyst to help us understand ways to fight racism. Selfeducation involves reading books, attending workshops, and watching documentaries to expose the mechanisms through which racism persists in various forms and shapes in our society. Conversations about racism are a must for every parent to have with their kids. We must understand the profound consequences of discrimination, countering any justification for such actions. Engaging with diverse individuals challenges stereotypes and forces us to find commonalities rather than only

Effective dialogue about racism should occur in safe spaces that allow individuals to express themselves without judgment. These environments foster open and honest conversations, enabling people to confront their biases and learn from one another.
I am inspired by role models like Abhay Sachal, who has been working tirelessly to mentor youth in our community. focusing on our differences. These conversations also highlight inclusivity, emphasizing the strength of different perspectives. Inclusivity nurtures innovation, creativity, and a sense of belonging, vital for a harmonious society. Educating ourselves is just the beginning; sharing knowledge with others is essential. Conversations are the spark that ignites change. By disseminating wisdom to friends, family, and communities, we sow the seeds of transformation, fostering a collective commitment to extinguishing racism.
Conversations can also drive policy change. Advocating for anti-racist policies, supporting equitable organizations, and participating in protests and awareness campaigns transform knowledge into action. It is everyone’s duty to contribute, whether in big or small ways, to make the world a better place. We can break down prejudice and discrimination by fostering education, empathy, inclusivity, and truth-seeking. Youth should step into leadership roles, and adults must support them. Together, through education, empathy, inclusivity, and a commitment to truth, we can break down the barriers of prejudice and discrimination. Change begins with a conversation, and the time for change is now; let our hearts guide us toward a world where love conquers hate and unity triumphs over division. WRITTEN BY Imroz Khosa

Diet & exercise:
Conquer diabetes with the winning duo
Diabetes affects about 422 million people worldwide. However, before you panic, here is a flipside to the situation. Yes, a healthy diet and exercise can be your secret weapons in managing and in some cases even reversing diabetes. We should stop taking diabetes as a life sentence as it is more of a wake-up call. It all boils down to the choices we make when it comes to what we put on our plates and how we move our bodies. Potential of a balanced diet: Opting for a well-balanced diet can work wonders for controlling diabetes. The key is to maintain those blood sugar levels stable.
So, what should you focus on? Fibre-rich foods: Load up on fruits, veggies, whole grains, and legumes. Fibre slows down the absorption of sugar, keeping those spikes at bay. Protein boost: Lean meats like chicken, fish, tofu, and beans should be your go-to sources of protein. Protein helps you feel satiated for a long time and keeps your muscles strong. Healthy fats: Avocado, nuts, and olive oil are your best pals. They contain healthy fats that will not
take your blood sugar on a rollercoaster ride. Portion control: It is not just about what you eat, but how much you eat that equally counts. Frequent but smaller meals can help keep blood glucose levels in check. Say no to sugar: Sugary drinks and snacks are your worst enemies. So, never think twice, and ditch them for good! Exercise: Your diabetes buster Diet alone is not sufficient to
fight against diabetes; the other half and equally important part of the equation is exercise. Moving your body is more than just shedding those extra kilograms; it is a game-changer for diabetes management. Cardio workouts: Activities like brisk walking, jogging, or cycling get your heart pumping and improve insulin sensitivity. Strength training: Building muscle not only burns calories but also helps control blood sugar. You do not need to be a bodybuilder to do that; beginnerfriendly body weight exercises can do the trick. Yoga and flexibility exercises: These can reduce stress, which is known to affect blood sugar levels. The power of consistency and frequent monitoring The secret sauce here is consistency. There is no quick fix, but gradual changes lead to long-lasting results. Stick to your healthy eating plan and exercise routine, and watch those glucose levels stabilize. Regularly check your blood sugar levels as this is your compass to see if you are on the right track. Plus, it helps you adjust your diet and exercise as needed. By: N. Lothungbeni Humtsoe

You may have trouble doing normal day-to-day activities, and sometimes you may feel as if life isn’t worth living. 4 1 in 5 Canadians will personally experience a mental illness in their lifetime. 4 About 20% of people with a mental disorder have a co-occurring substance use problem. 4 70% of mental health problems have their onset during childhood or adolescence. 4 Men have higher rates of addiction than women, while women have higher rates of mood and anxiety disorders. 4 More than 75% of suicides involve men, but women attempt suicide 3 to 4 times more often. 4 Almost one half (49%) of those who feel they have suffered from depression or anxiety have never gone to see a doctor about this problem. 4 Just 50% of Canadians would tell friends or co-workers that they have a family member with a mental illness, compared to 72% who would discuss a diagnosis of cancer and 68% who would talk about a family member having diabetes. 4 Nearly half of Canadians (46%) think people use the term mental illness as an excuse for bad behavior. 4 While the majority (58%) say they would socialize with a friend who has a mental illness, the proportion who say they would socialize with a friend who has an alcohol (32%) or drug addiction (26%) is significantly lower – suggesting that the stigma of addiction is significantly greater than that associated with mental illness. 4 The economic burden of mental illness in Canada is estimated at $51 billion per year. This includes health care costs, lost productivity, and

reductions in health-related quality of life. Symptoms Although depression may occur only once during your life, people typically have multiple episodes. During these episodes, symptoms occur most of the day, nearly every day and may include: 4 Feelings of sadness, tearfulness, emptiness or hopelessness 4 Angry outbursts, irritability or frustration, even over small matters 4 Loss of interest or pleasure in most or all normal activities, such as sex, hobbies or sports 4 Sleep disturbances, including insomnia or sleeping too much 4 Tiredness and lack of energy, so even small tasks take extra effort 4 Reduced appetite and weight loss or increased cravings for food and weight gain 4 Anxiety, agitation or restlessness 4 Slowed thinking, speaking or body movements 4 Feelings of worthlessness or guilt, fixating on past failures or selfblame 4 Trouble thinking, concentrating, making decisions and remembering things 4 Frequent or recurrent thoughts of death, suicidal thoughts, suicide attempts or suicide 4 Unexplained physical problems, such as back pain or headaches

Depression symptoms in children and teens Common signs and symptoms of depression in children and teenagers are similar to those of adults, but there can be some differences. 4 In younger children, symptoms of depression may include sadness, irritability, clinginess, worry, aches and pains, refusing to go to school, or being underweight. 4 In teens, symptoms may include sadness, irritability, feeling negative and worthless, anger, poor performance or poor attendance at school, feeling misunderstood and extremely sensitive, using recreational drugs or alcohol, eating or sleeping too much, self-harm, loss of interest in normal activities, and avoidance of social interaction Cont in next edition

5 tips for creating a green corner in every room
I
n the bustling chaos of modern life, finding a moment of tranquillity and connection with nature is a precious escape. That’s where the concept of ‘green corners’ comes in-a little oasis in every room that breathes life and serenity into your home. Whether you’re a seasoned plant enthusiast or just looking to introduce some greenery, we have some tips on how to create
a green corner in every room. Welcome guests with a green entryway The entryway is the first impression your home makes on visitors. Adding a touch of green here not only sets a welcoming tone but also purifies the air as guests step inside. Consider placing a hardy plant like a Snake Plant (Sansevieria) or a Peace Lily (Spathiphyllum) near
the entrance. These resilient plants thrive in a variety of lighting conditions and are excellent air purifiers. Switch artificial greens with natural flora in your living room The living room is often the heart of the home, and it deserves a lively, green touch. Opt for larger, statement plants like a Fiddle Leaf Fig (Ficus lyrata) or a Rubber Plant (Ficus elastica). These not only add a refreshing element but also create an appealing focal point in the room. Explore modern planters and plant stands to match your living room’s aesthetic. Keep your bedroom fresh with plants A bedroom is a sanctuary for rest and rejuvenation, and plants can enhance this calming atmosphere. Consider a Snake Plant or a Lavender plant. The Snake Plant purifies the air, while Lavender’s fragrance promotes relaxation and sleep. Placing these on bedside tables or hanging macrame planters can

add a soothing touch. Grow herbs in the kitchen What’s better than having fresh herbs at your fingertips in your kitchen? Herbs like basil, rosemary, or mint thrive in indoor environments. You can grow them in small pots on the windowsill or create a vertical herb garden on a sunny wall. Enjoy the convenience of using fresh herbs while cooking, and relish the delightful aroma they bring to your kitchen. Succulents in the bathroom Bathrooms often have limited natural light, making them perfect for low-light, lowmaintenance plants like succulents. These charming little plants add a touch of green without demanding too much attention. Aloe vera and Snake Plant varieties work well in bathrooms. Consider using wall floor planters or hanging pots to save precious counter space. By: IANSlife

Why is listening to your gut important? In 400 B.C, Hippocrates has been quoted saying “death sits in the bowels” and “bad digestion is the root of all evil” showing that the significance of the intestines in human health has been long recognized.
I
n the past, most research on the impact of bacteria in the intestinal environment has focused on gastrointestinal pathogens and the way they cause disease. But in recent times there has been a considerable increase in the study of the positive effects of human microbes on health and wellness. Interest in the functioning of the human microbiome, particularly the gut microbiome, and its role in various diseases, has exponentially increased in recent decades. This unseen world of microbes residing in our body far exceeds the number of cells in our body and is influenced by diet, physical activity, antibiotic consumption, physical and psychological stress, etc. In a healthy state, gut microbiomes have myriad positive functions, including the metabolism of
non-digestible components of foods, protection from viruses, bacteria and boosting the immune system. Let’s understand this better. WHY IS THE GUT MICROBIOTA IMPORTANT? The human microbiome consists of collective genomes of predominantly bacteria, viruses, Protozoa, Archaea, Eukaryotes, that live symbiotically on and within various sites of the human body, like the oral cavity, genital organs, respiratory tract, skin, and gastrointestinal system, that influences our health to a great extent. GUT MICROBIOTA IS IMPORTANT IN: 4 Fermenting unabsorbed starch and soluble dietary fibre as well as bile acid metabolism 4 Serves as an important source
of vitamins B and Vit K for the host 4 Plays important role in maintaining gut barrier integrity, host immunity development, and regulating host immune response to various antigens at both local & systemic levels 4 Plays a crucial role in CNS microglial function as well as the development and functioning of the enteric nervous system Moreover, research has found links between altered bacterial populations, and the following diseases: 4 Asthma 4 Autism 4 Cancer 4 Celiac disease 4 Colitis 4 Diabetes 4 Eczema 4 Heart Disease 4 Malnutrition 4 Multiple sclerosis 4 Obesity THE HUMAN MICROBIOME HAS AN INFLUENCE ON THE FOUR BROAD AREAS OF IMPORTANCE TO HEALTH: 4 Nutrition 4 Immunity 4 Behaviour 4 Disease THE LINK BETWEEN GUT MICROBIOTA AND GOOD HEALTH Altered composition of gut microbiota is likely to impair the normal functioning of gut microbiota in maintaining host wellness. It can potentially induce selective-increase of
38
www.entertainmentmagazine.ca
certain microbiota members, including pathobionts, leading to dysregulated production of microbial-derived products or metabolites, which might be harmful to the host, causing a diverse range of diseases on local, systemic or remote organs. GUT MICROBIOTA DYSBIOSIS IS IMPLICATED IN MULTIPLE DISEASE CONDITIONS INCLUDING: 4 GI disorders like Clostridium Difficle Infection, Inflammatory Bowel Disease, Celiac Disease, Colorectal Cancer 4 Systemic disorders like Obesity, Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, Hypertension 4 Autoimmune disorders like SLE, Rheumatoid Arthritis 4 Atopic disorders like childhood Asthma, and 4 Neurological disorders like Parkinson’s Disease, Depression, Alzheimer’s Disease, and Autism spectrum disorders as well as CKD Going forward, a deeper understanding of gut microbiota and its manipulation with diet and physical activity may provide vital clues to reversing or controlling some of these disorders. Faecal Microbiota Transplantation is now an established therapy in treating diseases like recurrent C Difficle Infection and is emerging as a therapeutic option in many other disorders, including Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) and Liver diseases. In the future, the gut microbiota will become a cornerstone of preventive medicine. By: IANSlife

Priyanka reflects on motherhood: ‘It’s made me a tad more sensitive and fragile’
A
ctress Priyanka Chopra Jonas has reflected on her role as a mom. The actress, 41, opened up about motherhood and how it is a journey filled with varying emotions. She detailed how often she finds herself feeling overwhelmed as a mom, reports People magazine. The actress, who shares 21-month-old daughter, Malti Marie, with husband Nick Jonas, told People: “I think when you put them to bed, it’s extremely overwhelming because every single day you worry about what you can do wrong and what mistake you might make.” She continued: “But you have to check yourself, and I check myself with my family. I look at (my daughter’s) smile, and I’m like, ‘Okay, okay. I’m doing good so far’. It’s the greatest thing I’ve ever done, but it’s extremely scary.”
Priyanka and Nick welcomed their first child together via surrogacy on January 15, 2022. Priyanka told People that having a little girl of her own never altered her stance on women’s rights. She said: “I don’t know if (having my own daughter) specifically has made me want to get behind amplifying women’s voices. That’s something that I am extremely aware of, being a woman who has the privilege of choosing my life and my career. There are so many women around the world that don’t get that opportunity.” Still, the ‘Citadel’ star noted that motherhood has made her more aware of her own emotions. “It’s made me a tad more sensitive and fragile, I think, and it makes me nervous a little bit. I didn’t expect that”, she added. By: IANS

A day of remembrance for those who made great sacrifices.. Every year on November 11, Canadians pause in a silent moment of remembrance for the men and women who have served, and continue to serve our country during times of war, conflict and peace.
M
ore than 2.3 million Canadians have served our country in this way, and more than 118,000 have died. They gave their lives and their futures so that we may live in peace. This day honors those who fought for Canada in the First World War (1914-1918), the Second World War (19391945), and the Korean War (1950-1953), as well as those who have served since then. These wars touched the lives of Canadians of all ages, all races, all social classes. Fathers, sons, daughters, sweethearts: they were killed
in action, they were wounded, and thousands who returned were forced to live the rest of their lives with the physical and mental scars of war. The people who stayed in Canada also served— in factories, in voluntary service organizations, wherever they were needed.

Yet for many of us, war is a phenomenon seen through the lens of a television camera or a journalist’s account of fighting in distant parts of the world. Our closest physical and emotional experience may be the discovery of wartime memorabilia in a family attic. But even items such as photographs, uniform badges, medals, and diaries can seem vague and unconnected to the life of their owner. For those of us born during peacetime, all wars seem far removed from our daily lives.
We often take for granted our Canadian values and institutions, our freedom to participate in cultural and political events, and our right to live under a government of our choice. The Canadians who went off to war in distant lands went in the belief that the values and beliefs enjoyed by Canadians were being threatened. They truly believed that “Without freedom there can be no enduring peace and without peace no enduring freedom.” By remembering their service and their sacrifice, we recognize the tradition of freedom these men and women fought to preserve. They believed that their actions in the present would make a significant difference for the future, but it is up to us to ensure that their dream of peace is realized. On Remembrance Day, we acknowledge the courage and sacrifice of those who served their country and acknowledge our responsibility to work for the peace they fought hard to achieve. During times of war, individual acts of heroism occur frequently; only a few are ever recorded and receive official recognition. By remembering all who have served, we recognize their willingly-endured hardships and fears, taken upon themselves so that we could live in peace. November 2023

or central nervous system. Since there are different types of chocolate available, there are different concentrations of theobromine present. The four most dangerous types of chocolate that are extremely toxic to dogs are cocoa powder, unsweetened chocolate, dark chocolate, and milk chocolate. Comparatively, white chocolate contains less amounts of theobromine and is not as toxic as the others. In this case, it is estimated that approximately two to three standard chocolate bars are an extremely lethal dose for a small sized dog. In the United States, it is reported that an average of 76 cases involving chocolate poisoning are brought to a veterinarian’s attention each day. If your dog ingests chocolate, common signs you may see are vomiting, diarrhea, restlessness, tremors, seizures, increased urination, high or abnormal heart rate, collapse or even death. Dogs can show these

signs up to 6 – 12 hours after consuming chocolate. If you feel your dog is displaying any of the forementioned signs, then please consider it a medical emergency and seek care from your local veterinarian immediately. In the case that your dog has ingested chocolate, there is no cure, but your veterinarian will have other tools to help facilitate the situation. Your veterinarian may induce vomiting to help remove the chocolate from the body, via activated charcoal. Your veterinarian can also choose to give the dog IV fluids to help stabilize the excretion of theobromine from the dog’s body. Please be aware that there is a 24/7 available Pet Poison Helpline, where you can call anytime at 855-764-7661, in case you are not able to reach your local veterinarian.

John Legend says his 4 kids bring ‘a lot of joy’, ‘positive energy’ to their home G rammy-winning singer-songwriter John Legend has opened up about his family with wife Chrissy Teigen, and how their four kids make their days brighter.
“They bring a lot of joy to the house and a lot of positive energy,” Legend says of Luna Simone, 7, Miles Theodore, 5, Esti Maxine, 10 months, and Wren Alexander, 4 months, reports ‘People’ magazine. As for the newest additions to his brood, specifically, Legend notes: “They don’t cry a lot, so we feel really blessed and excited to have them as part of our home and part of our family now”. Legend and Teigen, 37, welcomed their oldest child in April 2016, before Miles joined as a new addition in May 2018.

The couple later suffered a pregnancy loss with son Jack, their third child, in September 2020. As per ‘People’, the family then welcomed daughter Esti earlier this year on January 13. At the time, the EGOT winner first shared the news at a private concert. “What a blessed day,” he told the crowd just hours after Teigen had given birth. Legend and Teigen’s family then expanded once more when they welcomed their baby boy Wren via surrogate on June 19, 2023. Currently, Legend says that his oldest two kids are doing great. He told ‘People, “They’re in school. Miles is in kindergarten and Luna’s in second grade. Luna just started doing homework, which is fun for me because I like overseeing her homework, and I was always kind of a very precocious student”. “So I get to relive that with my daughter and son”. As for his younger two, the ‘All of Me’ crooner added that the infants are reaching some milestones of their own, and he and Teigen “love” being a family of six. “Esti just started crawling a couple of weeks ago, and Wren is 4 months old now,” he said. “They smile a lot.” By: IANS

Physiotherapists are a crucial source of psychological support for athletes, guiding them through the psychological and emotional facets of recovery.

Athletes can advance through their rehabilitation program with more comfort and confidence by efficiently managing their discomfort.
2. Plans for Personalized Treatment: The personalized nature of physical therapy is one of its main advantages. Physiotherapists create treatment regimens that cater to each athlete’s specific demands instead of general treatments.

Mastaaney: A rousing slice of history that founded the Sikh empire Duration: 2 hrs 3 mins Director: Sharan Art Cast: Tarsem Jassar, Simi Chahal, Gurpreet Ghuggi, Karamjit Anmol, Baninder Bunny, Honey Mattu Cinematography: Jaype Singh IANS Rating: **** An epic tale from Indian history dating to 1739, the story is inspired by the rise of the warrior Sikhs who began gathering against the Mughal empire in that era. Through a fictitious narrative of five common men, the film etches the characteristic trait of Sikh bravery borrowing from the teachings of warrior Sikh gurus like Guru Hargobind Singh, Guru Teg Bahadur and Guru Gobind Singh. The story begins with the shenanigans of these four commoners; including Zahoor (Tarsem Jassar) and Bashir (Karamjit Anmol) highlighting their buffooneries as Zakariya Khan’s (Avtar Gill) wazir (Arif Zakaria) engages them to play the role of Sikhs. Towards the climax when another commoner, a fakir called Kalander (Gurpreet Ghuggi) arouses them into Sikh valour with the stories of Sikh heroism and power of ardaas, their transformation looks stark.
Ghuggi has put in tremendous effort by projecting a nuanced and insightful fakir whose allegiance lies with the warrior Sikhs since his life was saved by them when he was roaming the land as a kid. He is the one who helms the responsibility of leading the four commoners from plebian to lofty when he instils in them the values of Sikhs through the recitation of the ardaas, urging them to fight against the robust army of Khan even though they are terribly outnumbered.

Drawing upon this transcendence from common to the super brave, the director has done a spectacular job as he etched each character with equal measure, to justify them as the symbolic five Sikhs of the martial race. Leading this pack of commoners, Zahoor’s character essayed by Tarsem is as close to a conman with his kohl laden eyes and frivolous mannerisms, and thus lends great credibility to the portrayal.
Open 7 Days a Week
Banninder Bunny and Honey Mattu deserve special mention for essaying the other two commoners with as much zest, never letting the script falter. Rahul Dev plays Nader Shah with an unusual ease of Punjabi language and dons the traits of a Persian ruler plundering the country, to perfection. Simi Chahal’s role as Zahoor’s love interest, Noor is small, but she ensures infusing it with credibility. The film is a huge effort for the Punjabi industry to emerge from the tag of comics. Though it requires more depth in its building up of the commoners to becoming warriors, the story engages with its grand cinematography and martial display in the climax. The music is another highlight that captures with its undertones of Mughal influence and Sikh hues. By: Jaspreet Nijher

6 best things to do on your
next visit to Vallarta
Explore an underwater world at Playa Majahuitas Snorkelers rave about the clear, wildlife-rich waters at Playa Majahuitas, one of Vallarta’s best beaches. Visibility is excellent in this small protected cove, which teems with parrotfish and angelfish, and its tranquil golden sands make for a great escape from downtown. If you have your own snorkeling gear, water taxis departing from Playa de los Muertos pier will drop you at the beach; if not, numerous tour operators can kit you out with everything you need and ferry you to and from the cove.

Go whale-watching If you’re visiting from December to March, don’t miss out on the chance to spot 30-ton humpback whales creating almighty splashes as they leap out of the sea. Some tour companies runs four-hour whale-watching expeditions aboard boats equipped with hydrophones–underwater microphones that will let you listen in on the whales’ mesmerizing mating calls.
Take a coastal hike Starting from Boca de Tomatlán, a fishing village 16km (10 miles)
south of Vallarta, a trail traces the coast to a string of quiet jungle-backed coves, some with shady seafood palapas (low-key cafes in thatched huts). You can extend the hike as far west as Playa Quimixto if you’re up for a long hot walk. Buses to Boca de Tomatlán depart from the Zona Romántica at the corner of Constitución and Basilio Badillo. Explore Vallarta’s food scene Vallarta’s fabulous foodie scene will have you licking your chops with every mouthful. As well as ubiquitous street stalls slinging delectable fish

and birria (goat) tacos, the city is chock-full of restaurants serving fresh seafood, traditional Mexican staples and innovative international fare. For the ultimate gourmet smorgasbord, Vallarta Eats, a small company runs themed food-focused tours, including a popular taco crawl. Discover art and crafts on the streets Art is everywhere in Vallarta. Larger-than-life bronze sculptures dot downtown’s esplanade, while beautiful seathemed murals add color and
character to the vibrant city center. The Centro is also known for its exceptional art galleries and craft stores–places such as Galería de Ollas and Peyote People–where you can buy unique ceramics and surreal and psychedelic bead and yarn art. Enjoy a relaxing Isla Cuale river walk While exploring downtown, linger for a while on Isla Río www.entertainmentmagazine.ca
Cuale, a traffic-free sandbar lined with shady rubber trees, riverside restaurants and stalls hawking everything from colorful Huichol crafts to touristy knick-knacks. On the island’s east end, look for the tiled Iguana bridge and cross over to the upscale neighborhood of Gringo Gulch to roam the old stomping grounds of Hollywood celebrities.
