                    [post_content] => The recent news of COVID-19 has changed the way we go about our day-to-day tasks so much so that some of us are now working from home, taking care of our grandkids and other family members, and scheduling our limited grocery runs from week to week.

But that doesn’t mean searching for your future retirement home has slowed down. Sales are still in full swing with nearly 100 homes sold this passed month in the Chilliwack area. Here at Malloway Village, we understand that real estate remains important to those of you who are on the lookout for your new forever home. We also understand how difficult it is these days for retirees to get out and about for their appointments. That’s why at Malloway Village, we’ve introduced and implemented the option of private home viewings and virtual tours for our two show homes.



Our sanitized show homes may be closed to walk-in appointments but they remain open for both private viewings and virtual viewings. We’re taking all the necessary precautions to make sure both our team and our valued clients remain safe during these difficult times. From practicing social distancing during private viewings, to sanitizing our show homes with the utmost care, we’re working hard to make sure your time, whether that’s during an in-person private viewing or virtual viewing, is used efficiently so that you can learn all about Malloway Village and what we have to offer.

If you’d like to book an appointment with us, either in-person please book an exclusive appointment with our sales staff to view one of our fully-furnished, sanitized show homes. If viewing from the comfort of your own home is more your style, please book an online showing with Cliff Armstrong, the Malloway Village Sales Manager, and he’ll walk you through the entire show home property.

Join us this Saturday, April 25th at 2PM for our first ever Facebook Live Open House. You’ll have the chance to win a variety of great prizes that you can use to spruce up your home all while seeing the beautiful show homes that Malloway Village has to offer. You won’t want to miss out on this unique opportunity to win prizes to Canadian Tire and Minter County Gardens while viewing our homes!

                    [post_content] => In preparation for the social distancing that the Government of Canada has recommended, we've put together a list of things you can implement into your daily life in order to stay as healthy as possible.

 

Utilize Online Grocery Shopping

We know that grabbing groceries and having a stocked fridge and pantry may be your top priority during this time. We suggest utilizing online grocery shopping services. Whether you’re looking to shop directly with your grocery store of choice like Save-on-Foods or Walmart, or you’re using a third-party website or application, this minimizes your contact with others.

 

Our top online grocery shopping options are BC211’s Seniors Grocery Shopping, Walmart’s Online Shopping Service, and Save-on-Foods’ Online Shopping. In addition to these, many stores like London Drugs offer the option to order your items online and pick up in-store, which also dramatically reduces your interactions with others.

 

Spend Time Outdoors, When You Can

Though it’s best to socially distance yourself from the general public, that doesn’t mean you should socially isolate yourself completely! Whether you’re taking a quick walk around the block, or reading a book on the grass at your favourite park, you can still enjoy the outdoors.

 

Stay Connected with Loved Ones Electronically

In times like this, connecting with friends and family is paramount. It can be an easy way to ease any stresses you may have and can often bring you closer to those you love, even if you aren’t in the same room, city, or country as them. We suggest utilizing online communication tools like Skype or FaceTime to chat with those you care about.

 

These are just a few different ways you can prevent the spread of viruses without completely compromising your day-to-day life. With that being said, it’s always best to review information from Government official so we suggest checking in with what they have to say. You can find helpful information from the Government of Canada here.

                    [post_content] => Staying organized and on top of your day-to-day life can sometimes be stressful. Whether you’re looking for receipts, bills, a magazine, or an old recipe, sifting through drawers, filing cabinets, and envelopes can cause added stress. Migrating some of that clutter to a smart phone, tablet, or computer can help ease the stress!

 

First and foremost, having important documents online means they’re all in one place. You can often opt to have receipts sent to your email while shopping and can even ask to have all major bill payments done online. Not only is everything in one place, but using technology also makes it easier to keep track of important things. All of your passwords can be easily saved and kept private from others, leaving you with less stress to write down or remember your password combinations. On top of all that, devices are becoming more and more secure, meaning you don’t have to worry about viruses or online scams.

 

So, maybe migrating some of your important information to a device sounds right for you, but, how do you get started? We’ve compiled our top five must have apps to get you started on this journey.

 

Productivity apps

Productivity apps are great to keep you more organized. Do you like to write down recipes? Or create weekly grocery lists? Using a productivity app like a notepad allows you to keep all that information in one place. It reduces your physical lists and makes it easier to find things like recipes when you really need them!

 

Online banking apps

Chances are, your bank has an online banking system and standalone app that’s secure and easy to use. Utilizing your banks app makes it even easier to track your day-to-day spending and long-term savings goals. Not only can you review your daily spending but you can also make bill payments directly from your phone. This minimizes your mail intake and clutter, rather than keeping a filing cabinet full of past bills and receipts.

 

Grocery shopping apps 

Maybe you don’t often drive, or maybe your week is full of important appointments. Purchasing and scheduling your groceries to be delivered to your house is effortless and easy. By cutting down on valuable time, online grocery shopping and delivery ensures you get the right products to your door quickly and easily.

 

Loyalty program apps

Whether you’re grabbing a coffee on your way into town, or shopping at your local drugstore, there’s probably a loyalty app that you could be using to gain points, and maybe even some free things! Take the Starbucks loyalty program. Not only does their app allow you to collect points, but it also allows you to put your points towards purchases in-store!

 

Digital magazine subscription apps

Reading is a great way to stay on top of things, and having all of your reading materials on your phone, laptop, or tablet is ideal. Digital magazine subscriptions don’t only work well for fashion and lifestyle magazines, but they often will have access to news-based magazines as well. Having everything in one space makes your device the one-stop shop for reading materials. Whether you’re reading during your morning coffee, or during your next vacation, you’ll have everything you need!

                    [post_content] => Growing older sometimes means growing apart from life-long friends. People move from their family homes in with their kids, to adult living communities or even to other areas of the city. With this change in your life, it doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t continue to put yourself out there and make connections with others. We gathered together our top five places to meet other retirees in Sardis.

 

Fitness Groups

Joining a fitness group allows you to work on your physical and cognitive health while meeting others who share the same values as you. Meeting others who are also on a fitness journey can be a motivating factor to continue to better yourself.

Creative Groups

Joining a creative group can give you the chance to explore your creative side. Maybe you’re interested in joining a drop-in art class, a gardening club or a community choir. Setting aside time each week to get your creative juices flowing might just lead to a new hobby and some new friends!

Cooking Classes

Have you ever thought of joining a cooking class? Learning from chefs, alongside other curious individuals is a great way to meet people and pick up a new skill! Maybe you’ve always had a passion for food and want to learn more, or maybe you’re interested in food as a hobby. Learning not only how to cook food but about the ingredients used can give you valuable information when it comes to sourcing food for yourself.

Community Book Clubs

If art classes or cooking classes aren’t your thing, maybe you’ll enjoy joining a book club! It’s one thing to read books yourself but reading books with a group of others who you can gain insightful information from really takes reading to a whole new level. Joining a book club allows you to engage in lively discussions and meet others who have similar interests. The best part? If the book club is organized by a library, the books are often provided by the library for free!

                    [post_content] => Taking the leap to move into an adult community can be daunting for many. You may question, “will I enjoy it? Will I make friends? Is this the right decision to make?” With Malloway Village, the answer is always YES! Not only does Malloway Village give homebuyers a variety of options when it comes to their living space, but it also offers a variety of other amenities like a community club house, gardening and maintenance services, RV parking, in-house upgrades, and a safe gated community, just to name a few. In today’s blog, we’re covering our top reasons to choose Malloway Village as your retiree home.

At Malloway Village, you’re immersed in a unique and welcoming community. From your neighbours, to the property maintenance team, you’ve got a great variety of people around you for support. Maybe you’re living with your partner, or you’re living on your own, rest assured that you’ll be living alongside like-minded and supportive people. According to Glynn Devins, studies show that older individuals with an active social life may exhibit a slower rate of memory decline than those without an active social life. Strong social networks and relationships aide in and can even prevent memory loss long-term.

What pairs better with community, then community activities? Living in a community of like-minded people, means you’ll have access to community activities. Whether that means a daily morning walk around the property with your neighbours, or a weekly summer BBQ, you’ve got access to everything you’ll need. Malloway Village also offers a state-of-the-art community clubhouse for residents. Access to the clubhouse offers residents an added space to meet new neighbours and host events with family and friends. In addition to this, Malloway Village also offers access to a pickleball court for residents.

Aging sometimes means not being able to do the activities you once loved, and for you, maybe that’s gardening, but it doesn’t mean you can’t have a well-maintained property. Here at Malloway Village, gardening is included in your general maintenance fees. This means you can have the beautiful garden you’ve always wanted without having to worry about it.

Did you know that Malloway Village homes offer customization and upgrades? Maybe as you age, you find that you’d benefit from lowered counters and cabinetry. With our ease of living home features, you can easily make those upgrades. Other upgrades include bank of drawers instead of cupboards, roll out shelves, garburators, grab bars in showers and bathrooms, and soft close kitchen cupboards. Why not make the best out of your forever home?

                    [post_content] => For some people, aging creeps up on us. One day, it seems as if you’ve never felt so young—you’re spending time with family and friends, travelling and leading a positive lifestyle, and then over time, you realize you maybe can’t do the same things that you used to. For some, this comes in the form of physical health, and for others, mental health. But it doesn’t always have to be this way… There are ways to feel confident in your age. We’re here to tell you our top ways to implement healthy aging, no matter where you are in life.
Maintain Good Cognitive Health
Putting in effort to maintain good cognitive health can go a long way. Some people will choose to read one book a month or listen to podcasts on a daily basis as ways to keep their cognition up to date and their mind active. In addition to implementing reading, others might try to do puzzles and crosswords, keep up with news or stay connected with their family and friends through technology.
Maintain Good Mental Health
Though cognitive health is important, we think that maintaining proper mental health is just as important! By having a clear understanding of your mental health, you are able to understand your health and your emotions, and how they are both connected. Maintaining your mental health can be done in many ways. Some may choose to keep a daily journal, where they can reflect on their day-to-day, while others may choose to implement activities like yoga, meditation, or Tai Chi. No matter the form you choose, these practices can often be implemented easily at home.
Be Physically Active
Maintaining your physical health as you age is another key component to aging gracefully. This doesn’t mean that you should have a goal of losing weight, gaining muscle, or running a half marathon, but more so, that you should try to move your body on a daily basis. Whether that means walking around your neighbourhood each morning, attending a drop-in fitness centre or walking to the store instead of driving, there are small habits that can make a lifetime of difference.
Put Yourself Out There and Make New Friendships
Creating new friendships can make it feel as if you aren’t aging alone. Sure, you have your family and friends, but there’s always room for more connections in your life. Maybe you’re thinking of picking up a new hobby or returning to an old hobby that you enjoyed years ago, there are so many things you can start at any age. Some people choose to let their creativity flow and join a pottery class or a drop-in painting class at the local community centre, while others may choose to attend an art exhibit or a farmer’s market to meet other likeminded individuals.

Like we said earlier, aging is inevitable, but you can still take control of your life! And the first step in doing so is accepting that you are growing older. Whether you challenge yourself to read one book a month, join a club, or implement an exercise regime, you can obtain a more positive outlook on life. By following some of these tips and tricks, you’re bound to see your age in a positive light.

                    [post_content] => Happy New Year! A new year means new beginnings, and 2020 is a great chance to follow through on becoming a better and healthier you! We know many people have health and fitness goals on their list of New Year’s Resolutions this year, but sometimes it can be hard to keep up with them. That’s why we’ve created a list of 5 different physical activities you can integrate into your life for 2020.

Yoga
From added flexibility, to mindfulness, to breathing exercises, yoga can offer benefits at any age. As a muscle-strengthening activity, yoga can assist aging individuals in their day-to-day life by strengthening their core muscles and balancing abilities. In addition to these benefits, yoga also offers individuals time out of their day to focus on themselves, even if only for 30-minutes.

Zumba
Who doesn’t like to let loose every once in a while?! Zumba is a fitness program created by Alberto Pérez in the late 1990’s. This form of exercise incorporates interval training by alternating fast and slow rhythms to Latin and international music with dance moves in an up-beat and positive atmosphere. Some benefits of Zumba include calorie burning, boosting your heart health and improving coordination.

Walking Groups
Joining a walking group is one of the easiest ways to stay physically active. Not only does it offer you exercise, but it also offers you a support group of individuals who are striving for the same goals as you – to age in a healthy manner.

Golf
Golf is a great low-risk exercise option for individuals looking to maintain an adequate level of exercise. Though most individuals shy away from extreme physical activities like cycling and long-distance running, golfing is a great option for those looking to participate in a group activity. In addition to these physical benefits, golf also offers neural benefits in the form of strategic thinking.

Simple Strength Training
If joining a walking club or attending a class at a gym doesn’t fit your schedule, you can always practice at-home exercises. Investing in a small set of weights can really go a long way as an easy and inexpensive option. Whether you’re lifting 5lbs or 15lbs a couple of hours a week, you’re bound to see a positive difference in your strength when it comes to day-to-day tasks.

Now that you’ve learned of some exercise options for your lifestyle, what else are you waiting for? 2020 is your year, so it’s time to make the most of it!

                    [post_content] => You may look at your children, or grandchildren and wonder how they’ve gotten so tech-savvy, so quickly. “How are they so good on their phones?” you may ask. Youth and young adults often get a bad rap for being glued to their phones, but they may be on to something… Have you ever thought of embracing technology, yourself?

Studies show that nearly 70% of the aging population are now online. Whether it’s to stay engaged with current events and politics, to stay connected with far away family members, or to online shop, the aging generation is constantly learning new uses for technology. But the aging population isn’t just using technology to reach out to their grandkids, or to watch a movie on Netflix, they’re also using it to improve their quality of life.

This increasing use of technology by the aging population isn’t just used for leisure, there are many different technological platforms used for accessibility and health reasons. Take TELUS Personal Health. As a leading telecommunications provider, TELUS released their Babylon health application in early 2019. The free mobile healthcare app acts as a personal doctor. Additionally, the company has created applications and devices that aide in home security and personal health. Though these sorts of things have been seen in the past with wearable devices that detect falls or injuries, the idea of a “smart” space is becoming increasingly popular.

Here at Malloway, we offer spaces that age with you, no matter what stage of your life you’re at. Whether that means wider hallways that are wheelchair and walker accessible, the ability to lower cabinetry in your kitchen, or the ability to install automatic or remote powered blinds in your living space, our homes offer adaptability and change that works for you.

So now that you’ve learned a bit more about Malloway’s relationship with technology, what more are you waiting for? Right now, Malloway is offering four new homes, move-in ready, and you’ll save $10,000!

Practicing and maintaining your mental wellness is important at any age, but even more so as we begin to get older. Though the stress of your 9-to-5 may be long gone, depending on when you’ve decided to retire, the stress of day-to-day lives on. Whether that stress presents itself in the form of daily tasks performed around the house or monthly bills that need to be paid, stress shouldn’t be taken lightly, and should be as top of mind as your physical health. We’re here to tell you how you can incorporate a bit of mindfulness into your daily routine, even if it’s only for a short 10 minutes
Meditation is becoming increasingly popular as a form of stress relief for your body and mind. In addition to its ability to relive stress, meditation also provides a variety of other lesser-known health benefits. By entering a deep state of relaxation, meditation refreshes and revitalizes your body all while giving you some peace of mind in your day-to-day.
Meditation also aides in our emotions. Setting time aside to focus on yourself can help reduce negative emotions. Even if you’re worrying about the smallest of things, taking a moment out of your day to breathe deeply and pause can help greatly.
Finally, meditation supports a peaceful sleep. Stress, no matter what it’s about, can often stop us from getting a good night’s sleep. The next time you experience a restless night, why not try a 3-minute meditation session? Setting aside a couple of minutes each evening to tune out the noise and collect yourself can help prepare you for a calm and easy-going evening.
You might be asking, “well where do I start?” Meditation can be practiced virtually anywhere, whether that’s in your house, on a walk, or even at a wellness and meditation studio in a guided meditation format. Here’s a list of some of our favourite places in the Chilliwack/Sardis area to practice mindfulness and meditation.

            [post_content] => The recent news of COVID-19 has changed the way we go about our day-to-day tasks so much so that some of us are now working from home, taking care of our grandkids and other family members, and scheduling our limited grocery runs from week to week.

But that doesn’t mean searching for your future retirement home has slowed down. Sales are still in full swing with nearly 100 homes sold this passed month in the Chilliwack area. Here at Malloway Village, we understand that real estate remains important to those of you who are on the lookout for your new forever home. We also understand how difficult it is these days for retirees to get out and about for their appointments. That’s why at Malloway Village, we’ve introduced and implemented the option of private home viewings and virtual tours for our two show homes.



Our sanitized show homes may be closed to walk-in appointments but they remain open for both private viewings and virtual viewings. We’re taking all the necessary precautions to make sure both our team and our valued clients remain safe during these difficult times. From practicing social distancing during private viewings, to sanitizing our show homes with the utmost care, we’re working hard to make sure your time, whether that’s during an in-person private viewing or virtual viewing, is used efficiently so that you can learn all about Malloway Village and what we have to offer.

If you’d like to book an appointment with us, either in-person please book an exclusive appointment with our sales staff to view one of our fully-furnished, sanitized show homes. If viewing from the comfort of your own home is more your style, please book an online showing with Cliff Armstrong, the Malloway Village Sales Manager, and he’ll walk you through the entire show home property.

Join us this Saturday, April 25th at 2PM for our first ever Facebook Live Open House. You’ll have the chance to win a variety of great prizes that you can use to spruce up your home all while seeing the beautiful show homes that Malloway Village has to offer. You won’t want to miss out on this unique opportunity to win prizes to Canadian Tire and Minter County Gardens while viewing our homes!
