Kia Ora, Manaaki Whānau, Now we are in the first days of Spring 🌷

Do you need to reset your health?

My favourite treatment is the BioPulse Ionic Detox perfect for a reset

The picture shows how the water looks after the treatment is finished 😉

How the Bio-pulse works:

The Bio Pulse foot spa sends a gentle electric current through water and sea salt to create a positive + negative ionic charge.

This charge stimulates your body's natural detox process, pulling waste, heavy metals, and impurities through the feet. 👣

The result?
Water that changes colour (yep, really) depending on what’s being released. And a body that feels lighter, calmer, clearer.

Benefits May Include:

✔️ Detoxification + Resilient immune system
✔️ Rejuvenation at a cellular level
✔️ Reduced inflammation in joints
✔️ Improved sleep + energy
✔️ Pain relief + excess candida
✔️ Stress Reduction, Headache or sinus relief
✔️ Better digestion + gut support
✔️ Overall sense of lightness + wellbeing

In just 30 minutes, you’ll feel lighter, clearer, and more grounded — a natural reset for your whole being.

$65 — 30 min solo session, or for an extra $35 add-on massage — extend your treatment to 60 minutes for a total health reset

Tired of running on empty?

Doing everything for everyone (except yourself).

Carrying the weight of the world?

The solution is not to keep pushing through, but to create space for yourself where you can flourish.

This is the final callout before we begin the last round of Flourish before spring.

The intention of Flourish is:

21 Days of support.
One Gentle Action a Day.
Real Change.

Allison + I will show you how to Flourish from the inside out.

With simple tools that don’t add more to your plate,
and real support that creates lasting transformation.

We begin Thursday, June 26.
3 live calls.
A private group for guidance and accountability

One reason I see women struggle to prioritise self-care is because they’re looking at it backwards. Most women know they should prioritise it, but are often so depleted, it's hard to start.

That’s because they’re looking at is as something to do to recover from life, when it’s actually something to do to create a life you don’t need to recover from.

Does this sound like you?

> You are always on the go, with lots to do, yet very little time for you.
> You might treat self-care like a reward for making it through another hectic week.
> Self-care is something you squeeze in when you can, only after everyone else is taken care of.
> You’re ready for this to change, because you know you can’t keep doing things this way - maybe you’re tired, impatient with loved ones and just feel like you don’t have much more to give.

The women who are flourishing in life know this:
Self-care is tending to your whole self, first.

>> Your physical, emotional, mental and spiritual zones need attention, before your burnout - so you can show up fully in your life.

>> Your physical space needs care - when your body and environment feel good, it’s easier to show up as your best self.

>> Your mind needs space to reflect and reset.

>> Your heart needs connection and compassion.

>> Your spirit needs meaning, joy, and a sense of purpose

Yet we’re rarely taught how to care for ourselves this fully. As we age, our needs shift and there’s a whole new learning curve to consider.

That’s why Allison & I created Flourish: A 21-day journey to help you create self-care habits that stick. We begin June 26.

Over our 21 days together in Flourish, you’ll get to:
> Rebuild your energy
> Reconnect with yourself
> Prioritise yourself, without the guilt

And you’ll get the support from both Allison & I, as well as a group of wonderful women who are looking to make changes in their lives too.

Ready to do self-care differently and create a life where you Flourish?

Sign up for Flourish now.
Early bird pricing ends tomorrow - this is your last chance to sign up at the rate of $56.35 before it rises to $111 + GST on June 20.

You'll be amazed at the difference just one gentle action a day can make in how you show up for yourself and for those around you.

That's what we'll be doing in our next round of Flourish, that begins June 26th.

Why did Allison and I choose self-care?

We both work with women in coaching, and we know it is so difficult for women to put themselves first.

The problem with that is when we don’t take care of our own needs, what occurs is overwhelm, tiredness, and our thinking gets out of control, which creates anxiety.

This isn’t an issue just for New Zealand women; this is common around the world and we want to help change that.

>>> FLOURISH in 2025
21 Days. One Gentle Action a Day. Real Change.

Feeling burnt out or lost in the noise?

It’s time to put you first, with self-care that actually sticks.

Join Allison and I for a 3-week online journey to reconnect with your body, calm your mind, and nourish your spirit.

> Simple tools
> Real support
> Lasting transformation

The cost is currently $56.35 to join (GST included), but is going up to $111 +GST on June 20.

Have you ever had a broken bone?

Well I just broke my little finger and am practicing what I preach by taking time off to rest.

So unfortunately, we've had to delay the start of our next Flourish course that my good friend Allison Fisher and I are running together.

Flourish is a three-week online journey for women to reconnect with your body, calm your mind, and nourish your spirit - without adding more to your plate.

The new dates are now June 26, July 3, and July 10, all on a Thursday at 7 pm.

You can still join at the $56.35 price, down from $111 + GST,
but only if you sign up by June 19.

Remember, this is about finding answers to questions and wonderings like these:

- How do I prioritise myself when I have so many other people to care for?

- I'm often overwhelmed, so how on earth can I add something else to the
mix?

- I can't say no to my family; it just isn't right.

- I crave time for myself, but I struggle to make it happen.

- How do I prioritise myself without feeling guilty?

Want all the details about Flourish and how it will create more calm and peace in your life?

Comment FLOURISH and I'll send you the details, or visit www.carmelc.com/flourish2025 to register.

If you don't make time for your wellness, you'll be forced to make time for your illness. Being busy is the most common block to consistent self-care I hear from the women I support.

But not making time for yourself leads to stress, exhaustion & burnout.

>>> What I know to be true is that creating routines with small, consistent daily actions is far more powerful than bigger chunks of inconsistent self-care.

If you’ve been feeling tired, stretched too thin, or disconnected from yourself…
you’re not alone - and you don’t have to figure it out alone either.

🌿 Flourish is a 21-day online course & container designed to help you prioritise yourself (without guilt) and rebuild your energy so you can begin to feel your best.

This is your space to slow down, reflect, reset, and be supported -
with simple tools and guidance from my dear friend Allison& I,
that won’t overwhelm you with more to-dos.

We know you want to jump off the hamster wheel of life,
with more energy, peace & calm.

That starts by putting yourself first and doing it in small, sustainable ways.

This course will show you how to create space for self-care in a way that you can maintain it.

It’s only $56.35 and begins June 12.

Sometimes the only thing missing to your next breakthrough is the right support and a clear roadmap - and that’s exactly what we’ll be sharing with you in Flourish.
