I love this picture of me! This was the last time I put figure skates on. Two winters ago to be exact. Unfortunately, this picture looks like I feel a lot better than I actually do. I lasted a total of 9 minutes on the ice until my feet and body couldn’t take it any longer! I knew it was going to be a hopeful experiment for me to try putting skates back on again and now to actually be able to move in them was really pie in the sky dreaming. It had been a few years since I retired from my lifelong career of figure skating. After 25 years of teaching it professionally and a total of 44 years spent on the ice, my body no longer supported this endeavour of mine.

The plain torture of strapping leather boots around my ankles was no longer an option for me. I have Fibromyalgia from all the trauma my body endured over the four decades of living life as a figure skater. As a result, I’ve created products that help me daily to relieve the chronic pain I experience. I’m here and created these things to help myself initially and as a result, my products can help YOU feel better, find pain and stress relief, and get energized! I never set out to invent products or “sell” products to you, it’s just what the universe gave me so I’m following the calling, trusting the process, and sharing it all with you.

Just like the sport of figure skating, it takes discipline, commitment, and consistency to look after yourself properly. Self-care is a lot harder than it seems, trust me, it’s something I struggle with daily. Some days I’m better at it than others – I’m sure I’m not alone here, do you ever have a hard time with self-care? I would love to hear from you, don’t be shy and please leave a comment!

Sending you much Love,
