✨ You Deserve Rest That Actually Helps
This is not a fitness challenge.
This is care — in small, steady doses.
I've lived with chronic fatigue, chronic insomnia and chronic pain for a very long time and I KNOW what it is to be bone tired and still be unable to rest.
Now I've managed to build a toolkit of several tools that I KNOW will give me true and profound rest.
I am sharing my best tools here with you.
I'm Melissa, a mama of four small children, with a blog, a part-time job, a husband, home - all the things - and I've managed to bring my symptom levels from moderate to mild (on average, we all have bad days).
And its my mission to share anything I've learnt that's helped me - with you. So join us for everything I would teach you if I could have you over for a cuppa in my lounge (with the Tui singing in the front yard).

What people are saying

"For the first time I'm in a yoga class that I feel like I'm actually going to get it...I really can do this and I love how it feels."

“I used the chair yoga on a day where my pain was extremely high. I had already decided that my day was canceled. Going out was not gonna be possible but I did the series and about 10 mins after I noticed I felt more alert and less pain . Before I knew it I was dressed in the car and driving to my sister’s house. I ended up spending the evening there and then going to the grocery store after that. I would have never imagined being able to do a program and have such immediate results.”
