HOW TO CHOOSE HOPE HACK #5 Notice and appreciate s HOW TO CHOOSE HOPE HACK #5
Notice and appreciate signs of growth

What an inspiring development! The City of Mississauga has just appointed Deryn Rizzi as Fire Chief. She's the first female in to occupy this incredibly important role. 
And tomorrow south of the border, Kamala Harris will be sworn in as the first female Vice President of the United States. So encouraging.
See? Glass ceilings can be shattered. Change can happen if you never give up hope.
👍👍👍

Plan your 2021 garden

❄️❄️❄️ Yup, we're in the deep, dark, cold days of winter, folks! But not for long. This year, spring officially arrives on March 20... only 60 days away!
We're all well acquainted (maybe a little too acquainted) with the inside spaces of our homes by now. Why not start to imagine how creative you'll be with your outdoor spaces when the days are long and warm?
Dream big! There are plenty of local experts out there who can help you plan your oasis, whether it's balcony gardening or growing your own veggies. Check out mississaugamastergardeners.ca for advice and sheridannurseries.com for inspiration! 🏡🏡🏡

HOW TO CHOOSE HOPE HACK #3 Use this time to learn HOW TO CHOOSE HOPE HACK #3
Use this time to learn something new

🐶🐶🐶Whether a young pup or an (ahem) older dog, we can always benefit from learning new tricks. The rewards are many: when we learn something new, our brain chemistry actually changes. We stave off dementia and we become more well-rounded, interesting people. 
Won't that be a great asset when life resumes once we beat COVID?
There are thousands of online resources you can access to learn new skills. Or... why not read a book? Borrow one from one of Mississauga's awesome libraries or visit a local bookstore website, ie The Book Wardrobe (thebookwardrobe.com).
Happy learning!

HOW TO CHOOSE HOPE HACK #2 Notice: our planet just HOW TO CHOOSE HOPE HACK #2
Notice: our planet just keeps on turning

🌅🌅🌅Fraulein Maria said (sang) it best: "I have confidence in sunshine! I have confidence in rain! I have confidence that spring will come again!"
It's true. No matter what havoc we humans are wreaking on our mother earth, she keeps on turning faithfully. This week, wake up early and watch a sunrise. That same sun will keep coming up every single day—despite our current stormy reality. Things will get better.
Look for the sun!

HOW TO CHOOSE HOPE HACK #1 Believe in the light at HOW TO CHOOSE HOPE HACK #1
Believe in the light at the end of the tunnel

🙏🙏🙏The word HOPE is much more than just a word. It's a deeply felt neurochemical stance toward our current circumstances, a conscious decision that alter our outlooks, our actions, as well as the life paths that unfold before us.

Despite the storm we find ourselves in right now, whether economic, personal, large-scale or intimate, the choice of hope over fear is pivotal for all of us. 

Over the next few weeks, we're focusing on reminding ourselves to consciously consider choosing hope over fear. Join us?

Lower your expectations!

🎁🎁🎁Yup, you heard right. Set the bar low! 
The next few days are bursting with pressure and stress, especially this year as we cope with dashed plans and fear for the future. 
Instead of planning for the perfect Christmas, choose to laugh at the imperfect chaos, mess and noise—or appreciate a time of peace due to the lack of chaos, mess and noise.
Give yourself the best gift of all: appreciate the wonder of the season with every sense you possess.
You are so loved! 
😘😘😘

On your walk today, stop to appreciate the bare trees. Their roots are alive and well; they're just waiting for warmth. Nature knows easier times are ahead... and so should we.

HOW TO CHOOSE JOY HACK #10 Cook! Create! Make some HOW TO CHOOSE JOY HACK #10
Cook! Create! Make something new!

😋😋😋Today, we’re going to cook with a vegetable we're not familiar with: the humble parsnip. 
Parsnips are cream-coloured, carrot-shaped root vegetables and who knew? They're a member of the parsley family! Similar to carrots, parsnips can be eaten raw but are most often roasted, boiled, fried, or steamed. 
Parsnips are moderately priced—and they're in season now!  At their sweetest when roasted, parsnips have a distinct taste, with a sweetness similar to a carrot but with an earthy nuttiness. Mmmmm...
Get yours fresh today at Herridges Farm Fresh Market, herridgesfarmersmarket.ca. For parsnip recipes, visit https://www.ontario.ca/foodland/recipes.
Happy cooking! 🥘🥘🥘
