Marching in Place: When Stress Needs a Body, Not a Solution 🚶♀️🌿 Stress doesn’t always arrive loudly. Most days, it shows up quietly — as restlessness, shallow breathing, a mind that won’t fully switch off. Nothing is “wrong”. Nothing needs fixing.

Support for daily movement, without intensity
Calf Raises: Small Movements That Quietly Support You 🦶🌱 Some exercises look too simple to matter. Calf raises are often one of them.

Quick, savoury, and made for calm nights

Some nights, it’s not your own life that keeps you up. It’s what you read. A headline that pierced straight through your chest. A story you didn’t expect. A photo you can’t unsee. And then we expect ourselves to shut it all off at night and sleep like nothing happened? Not how the nerves system…
