These are the MUST HAVE self-care products that I keep on stock, all the time to help me on my wellness journey. If you've ever asked me for a specific recommendation, chances are the answer is one of these!! 

Scroll down to see my favorite books!

Somnium Gaba Cream

If you have trouble sleeping this is for YOU! Somnium is a game changer when it comes to sleep. This gentle gaba topical helps me fall asleep and stay asleep for hours. AND you only need to use a teeny tiny bit, so one jar lasts forever. 

EuroSpa Eucalyptus Shower Spray is always in use in my house! First of all, it smells divine! AND the bathrooms smell like a spa! Even the teenage boys bathroom! More importantly though, eucalyptus clears the sinuses and respiratory systems. So after a long day of teaching yoga, or being around people, this is a good way to neutralize any funk, and also relax like I'm at the spa! It' a little pricey, but it lasts forever.

Magnesium Spray

Ancient Minerals Magnesium Spray is my go-to relief for sore achy legs at night! Just a few sprays on my calves and I dream restless-leg free! Despite taking supplements, MOST people have sleep issues due to low Magnesium levels, because Magnesium is best absorbed through the skin! See if this amazing spray helps you fall asleep and stay asleep, achy leg free! 

Several times a year, I start to feel bloated and just kinda...full. The Shaklee 7-Day Healthy Cleanse completely resets my system, reduces cravings, improves sleep, and jump starts weight loss. It has carefully selected supplements in convenient daily packets with a step-by-step guide and diet plan. I always have one in my cabinet.

Shaklee 7 Day Healthy Cleanse
Collagen-9

I use this in my tea every single morning. Shaklee Collagen-9 is cleaner than the others promoting healthy skin, hair, nails, and joints. It helps hold our body together by anchoring cells to each other, providing both structure and strength to our skin, bones, muscles, tendons, and ligaments. Ever commented on how long my finger nails are? This is why!

Moringa Tea
Uva Ursi Tea
Yarrow Tea
Sweet Birch Magnesium Bath Flakes

Some days it just all hurts. The only thing that will help is a hot soak in the tub with these amazing Sweet Birch & Magnesium Bath Flakes by Naturopathica. The sweet birch and magnesium calm and soothe even the most exhausted yoga teacher! I come out pain free and relaxed, ready to sleep like an angel!

Everything hurts and I feel like I'm dying... until I use my Theragun. After teaching a bunch of yoga classes a week, hitting the gym, and running my life, my muscles are so sore. So twice a week I take a few minutes to work it out with my Theragun. Yes, I know, there's other cheaper ones. I tried them, they are loud and don't work as good. The Theragun Elite has this special handle, so you can easily get your own back, glutes, and hamstrings. I take it with me every where I go. For real!

Shaklee Starter Kit

When I first had kids I made a commitment to live cleaner. I started using Shaklee cleaners because they were harmless, eco-friendly, and they did a great job. Best of all they're concentrated so it's cheaper overall and I'm not paying for water. Almost 20 years later and my green home is healthy as can be! I use everything from the surface cleaner, dishwasher detergent, to laundry detergent, and fabric softener. The coconut oil based hand soap kept my hands soft and clean through the whole pandemic and still looking young!! This Shaklee Starter Kit is a jump start to green living! 

With my most recent health journey I discovered that I wasn't drinking nearly enough water. Don't get me wrong, I drink a bunch of water, just not enough. So I got this 1 Liter Hydracy Water Bottle with fruit filter. I know I need to fill it up and drink it twice a day. And it's working! My numbers have been stabilizing and I won't need medication. :)

20oz Glass Tumbler

I keep this Tronco 20oz Glass Tumbler Glass Water Bottle by my bed every night, so if I wake up thirsty I can quickly easily take a few sips and return to dream land.

Shaklee Hydrate+ Electrolyte

It's so critically important to stay hydrated, so I always have Shaklee Hydrate+ electrolytes on hand. I get it by the tub and in the to go packs just to be sure I don't wither away during my busy day! 

I don't count calories so much, I count protein, and I absolutely crush my goals with Shaklee Life Shake. As a vegetarian, it's important to me to get clean plant-based protein...that's yummy! The chocolate is my favorite! The French Vanilla is good too! I use them either with Oat Milk, in smoothies, and delicious protein bars!

Shaklee Youth Luminous Gel Face Cleanser

This is my face soap and I love it. The Shaklee YOUTH skin care collection offers clinically proven products created in harmony with nature. This Luminous Gel Face Cleanser dramatically improves the health of my skin, AND it's 100% guaranteed to shift skin to a younger age. I'm in! AND it's concentrated so one bottle lasts forever.

Tbh sometimes it's late in the day by the time I get to have lunch, so these Shaklee Snack Bars are always in my backpack. They go a long way to curb hunger and keep the munchies at bay. A good source of protein and fiber, to keep you feeling fuller longer.

Shaklee Triple Defense Immunity Boost

The very first thing I drink every morning is my Shaklee Triple Defense Immunity Booster. It's a great-tasting berry-flavored drink mix, packed with vitamins C and D, zinc, plant-based adaptogens, elderberry, and more. Supports, boosts, and defends my immune system so I can go out there and spread the Health!

This is the ProSante shampoo and conditioner I use. They are chemically safe for your body and keep my hair light and clean, so it grows healthy and strong. And it smells nice too! Plus I LOVE that they are concentrated, so a little bit goes a long way for my long locks!

Palo Santo Incense Sticks

These are my favorite Palo Santo Incense Sticks to clear the air and reset the energy in my home. I love the smell of healing Palo Santo and these are ethically sourced, eco-friendly and long burning. Plus, they keep the mosquitos away, so no need to spray dangerous chemicals around!

Pillow. System. Yep. You read that right. On my days off, or during recovery, I will reach for this first and build myself a nice comfy pillow fort. I can't do sick and tired without it!
