Like writer Jasmin Malka (‘Powers of a Dragon Boat,’ October, page 20), I joined my first boat this summer. It’s a fabulous workout, and feeling the strength of all the paddles hitting the water is incredible.

I really enjoy your health tips and implementing them into my life. ‘Spinning Mini-Wardrobe’ (October, page 28) was topical, as I’m taking classes at the local Y and spinning is up next. Keep up the great job!

Question 7 in ‘Happiness: Are You There Yet?’ (September, page 128) indicates that using my brain to guide me means I’m less happy than if I had strong spiritual beliefs. I consider myself a happy person, and for me, a working brain is not a hindrance to that. My 22-month-old son has no ‘spirituality,’ yet he experiences the truest joy I’ve ever witnessed.

As a physiotherapist, I was delighted with your thoroughness in describing the many facets of my profession in ‘A Hands-On Approach‘ (September, page 72).

After searching for the perfect Canadian magazine, I now look forward to each issue of Best Health, and will be giving it to many girlfriends and relatives as gifts.

This article cuts stuff out but doesn’t add in healthy foods. As well, the exercises assume people don’t have young kids [who keep them busy].

The point of the article is to look at what you eat each day and eliminate one thing. And most people would have half an hour a day for activity.
