My Favorite Foam Roller
Foam rolling your connective tissue is an amazing way to address chronic pain and something I am now doing for myself, for clients and group classes. The bad news is that Foam rollers are not all the same. Some were too hard and hurt way too much, even caused bruising for one client. One was…
Protect Your Hands From The Sun

Pony Tail Hat to keep the sun off

Deep Blue Rub For Muscle Aches
Of all the muscle ache creams I’ve tried I love this one the best. It’s perfect for achy shoulders, legs, feet, backs, you name it. Just be careful you don’t get this in your eyes and stay away from my cat when it’s on you. She goes crazy and rubs all over you while drooling….
Weighted Blanket for Sleep and Anxiety
I got one of these for Christmas and love it. It not only is cozy because of the fleece but the weight just feels so comforting. I sleep like a baby with this and my cat loves it too!
Flip-It Bottle Emptying Caps
This gadget is amazing! I hate wasting expensive (or inexpensive) products and I found this on amazon! It has several different sizes for different size bottles. I’ve used it for shampoo, lotion, and things in the kitchen too. I use different caps so I don’t get lotion in my honey!
Get to Root Cause
Are you trying to lose weight and just can’t? It could be something besides your nutrition and exercise. My first recommendation to clients that just can’t seem to lose weight is to talk with their doctor. It isn’t all about calories in vs calories out any more. Especially for women, if your hormones are out…
Elta MD Mineral Sunscreen
In my search to find another mineral sunscreen that wasn’t as drying as the Australian Gold, I found this one by Elta MD With this one the tint isn’t as good but it’s very moisturizing. I apply it over make too because it’s important to apply sunscreen every few hours. Here is a blog I…
Australian Gold Mineral Sunscreen
I wear sunscreen everyday! I wish I had done that my whole life because my skin is now paying the price. Mineral sunscreens are supposed to be better for you but finding one that doesn’t make you look like a ghost or feel really greasy have been tough. This one I love. It can be…
Muscle Stick
If you have trouble getting down on the floor to foam roll this is the next best thing to getting some nice massage to your muscles and connective tissue. It’s also portable. I took it with me on my backpacking trip to Catalina and it really helped get me through without much soreness. Here is…
Percussive Massage Gun
Recovery Days are just as important as exercise days and I love this percussive massage gun. I’d love to have the time and money to get a massage every week but with this I don’t need it. It really helps me with recovery and any of those over 50 ache or pain my husband and…
Stretch Out Strap to improve flexibility
Yes, I do help clients stretch when we are together but this Stretch Out Strap is great when you want to stretch yourself. This strap has handles and is really sturdy. It’s perfect to do PNF or Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation which is a way to increase your range of motion. Or just get some help…
