🎶 Music and community — a perfect harmony for well-being.

Daysland Palace Theatre

We’re so excited to celebrate DaysArts’ 25th Season with Don Amero, an award-winning singer-songwriter whose heartfelt lyrics and soulful sound inspire hope, healing, and connection.

Join us on Thursday, November 6th at 7:30 pm at the Daysland Palace Theatre for an evening that uplifts the spirit and reminds us how deeply music contributes to our mental and emotional wellness.

Music has a unique way of bringing people together — it soothes, restores, and reminds us that we’re not alone. Let’s fill the theatre with community, compassion, and good energy!

Protein drinks are the latest trend with coffee shops offering them everywhere.  

What makes these lattes so high in protein? 
Protein coffees are made a bit differently at each shop. Some use microfiltered milk which has a higher protein concentration than normal milk. Others use protein powders mixed in, and some may use a combination of the two.  These protein coffees can be a convenient way to get your protein but can be high in sugar and the price adds up fast. 

So, do you need it? 
If you consume a protein source at every meal you will likely hit your protein needs. 

If you are curious about other ways to add protein to your diet, use this resource: �https://www.albertahealthservices.ca/assets/info/nutrition/if-nfs-adding-protein-to-your-diet.pdf

☝️ Anyone with breast tissue can be affected. Most changes aren’t cancer, but new or persistent changes deserve a check. See the graphic for potential signs to watch for. If something lasts more than a couple of weeks, worsens, or feels off, contact a healthcare professional.

👩‍⚕️ Ask your clinician when to start routine screening based on your age, history, and risk.

Repost 🟢 In Flagstaff, we show up for each other. When a neighbour’s fence is down, we grab a hammer. When someone’s cows get out, half the town is in the field. But when it comes to mental health? Too often, we stay silent.

1 in 3 Canadians will experience mental health challenges in their lifetime.

This November, let’s change that together. 💚

October is breast cancer awareness month and we want to remind you about the importance of early detection and self exams.

Here’s the steps to perform a self exam:

1️⃣ Look in a mirror with your arms at your sides and observe for any visual changes.
2️⃣ Raise your arms and looks for any changes.
3️⃣ Use the pads of your fingers to feel for irregularities while moving in a circular motion.
4️⃣ Examine ni***es for any changes.
🔄 Repeat these steps while lying down.

Early detection saves lives. 💕

Please consult with your doctor for best preventative practices and to discuss any concerns.

Every small town has a coffee row. You know which chair belongs to which farmer. And you notice when that chair sits empty.
Sometimes it’s a vacation. Sometimes it’s something heavier.

In Flagstaff, 13% of residents live with diagnosed anxiety - over 1,000 of our neighbors.

Empowering Minds is about noticing sooner and reaching out before it’s too late. Coming to Flagstaff this November.
