![]() In many long-term care facilities resources to address residents' mental health are limited. A new program in Halifax, Nova Scotia, is working to address this gap in care. Seeds of Success is scheduled to debut at Northwood, a long-term care facility in Halifax, this month. It's initial focus is on group horticultural therapy. "Research shows gardening is effective in helping mood disorders. At Northwood Care, it will be done in small sessions of up to 10 people. They can refer themselves or be referred by a doctor or family member. The sessions aim to end depression and anxiety, which are common among people in long-term care says resident Trudie Helmke [member of Northwood's Mental Health Committee]. The program will begin with gardening and creative expression, then progress to work in greenhouses, relaxation and mindfulness training."

I promised Great Dr. Odunga to always post this testimony and I really want to say "Thank You" to everyone who supported me through the years. My name is Manuel Franco, New Berlin, Wisconsin. My story of how I won the Powerball lottery of $768.4M is a bit of a tale. I was feeling very lucky that day because I had contacted Great Odunga to help me with the winning Powerball numbers. I really had that great great feeling that I looked at the camera wanting to wink at it. I only did a tiny part of it when he told me he would give me the numbers and trusted him. He gave me the numbers after I played a couple other tickets along with it for $10. I checked my ticket after the winnings came online and saw the numbers were correct including the Power play. I screamed for about 10 minutes because it felt like a dream coming into reality. I had won $768.4M. Thank you Great Odunga. Well, his email is [email protected] and [email protected] You can also call or Whats-app him at +2348167159012 so you guys can contact him
