Dear Doctors: I wonder if there have been any updates on that breathing technique called IMST? It was being studied because it can lower systolic blood pressure. I’m on blood pressure meds, and when I meet with my cardiologist, I want to talk to him about trying this method.

During the January meeting of Knights of Columbus (KC) Council 2012 from Our Lady Help of Christians (OLHC) Parish in Jennings the family of Jackie and Michael Bougard (at left) received the Council’s Family of the Month Award for December 2021. Grand Knight Toni Benoit (right) presented the award. Mike, with tremendous support from Jackie, has been an active member of the Knights of Columbus since November of 1985 and is an Honorary Life Member of the Order and a Fourth Degree Knight. He has also supported all the barbecue fundraisers over the last 20-plus years, including the one in October 2021. For this year’s barbecue, he installed an outlet on a pole at the edge of the St. Mary’s Center parking lot. The outlet was used to power a refrigerator trailer operated to keep perishable supplies cool until the KC’s were ready to cook the food and assemble the meals. Mike installed the LED lighting in the Our Lady Help of Christians Church building. This project has cut energy costs significantly and has increased the safety level of the church building. Jackie served as a Eucharistic Minister for OLHC Parish for many years. She has also been an active member of the Catholic Daughters of the Americas and the Ladies Alter Society. She can also be counted on to help Mike and the Knights in all of the Council’s fundraising activities. She provides the Family of the Month signs which Council Members and their families enjoy displaying in front of their homes. Mike and Jackie’s children and grandchildren have attended, or are attending, Our Lady Immaculate Catholic Elementary School in Jennings and they have been participants in religious education programs and Catholic Youth Activities within the parish. Mike and Jackie Bougard are definitely an asset to Our Lady Help of Christians Catholic Parish and the Knights of Columbus.
