Smooth legs, the not so secret secrets ✨

With Spring comes that feeling that any minute now we'll be shaking out those shorts and unveiling our legs for summer. Clearly Im not the only one thinking about this because I've suddenly seen a lot of posts on facebook from people with crocodile skin on their legs. This weeks newsletters gives you my tuppence worth on how to transform those scaly legs in time for the great unveiling ☀️

“I call it life-ing, not aging,” Pamela Anderson says.

“Chasing youth is futile. All we can do is embrace who we are at the moment we are in and be okay with where our feet stand right now.”

This 🙌 so much this 💕
Who says we have to disappear in our 50 and beyond. It’s our time to shine, maybe not in a youthful, dewy skinned way but in a way that is so much more authentically us.

Has 2025 felt a little like it needs a good kick up the backside to get it moving? Nobody likes to admit to not being busy, its like a badge of honour to be busy, but lets face it, in our industry we can find plenty to keep us busy, but thats not the same as running a profitable business.

Running a business will always have its ups and downs, in NZ at the moment we have the added challenge of an economy thats limping along somewhat. But are we going to let that stop us? No we are not! Most of us made it through the pandemic, we may have pivoted but we made it. And we'll make it through this challenge too, we just have to be smarter and look for those golden nuggets of opportunity.

All of us have seen costs rising and many of us are noticing our clients are more cautious with spending. But its worth remembering that not everybody is affected by the economy and, just like the days of COVID, there are businesses that are still do well. So, you can use up your precious time and energy worrying, or you can put it to better use sowing the seeds of future success.

Here’s how to start shaping 2026 follow this link to this weeks newsletter

Something you may not know about me is that I grew up in a large, mostly female, very close and rather noisy family. It was fantastic. We're a very chatty family, happiest when we're all together with several conversations going on across a room at the same time and everyone joining in with everyones conversations, along with snippets of song, much laughter, stories of old and many an opinion shared.

But you know what, I have no memories of anyone complaining about getting older, a few jokes about creaky knees maybe, but they just kind of got on with things knowing I guess, that theres more important things to worry about than a wrinkle or two.

Gorgeous gift today. I love them 🌸

The hidden load is real 😱 - https://mailchi.mp/06be6a05a61a/balancingchronicstress

Im not about to tell you that an appointment with me will solve all your problems but I can tell you that I am yet to see an exhuasted woman who didn't feel better after they'd spent an hour or so, tucked up in my warm treatment bed, in a quiet, softly lit room. Away from demands, away from decision making, away from project managing life. Taking time for yourself is pause that allows you to reset and can make the mental load feel a little easier to carry.

my tuppance worth about taking time out - https://mailchi.mp/49f09ccbab37/suncarewisdomnz-5855283

Life has a way of piling up! All those responsibilities & the endless 'to do list. Have you heard the expression 'she's really let herself go'? I think this needs to be reworded to 'she's been so busy looking after everything else she hasn't had time to look after herself'!

If you’ve been running on empty lately, consider this your reminder: letting go for a short time is essential for your wellbeing.

Holistic Skincare & Therapeutic Beauty

Holistic Skin Therapy is a natural, nurturing approach to skin care. It looks beyond the surface, right down to a cellular level, to optimise skin health.

The magic is in the massage! My treatments are based on natural skin care & massage. The initial focus is always to calm any sensitivity, then to release stress & tension. Tightness in muscles, caused by stress, tension & stored emotions inhibits the natural flow of nutrients to the skin. Over time, this affects the health & radiance causing premature ageing. Skin can also become dull, congested or puffy. Massage encourages a good flow of fresh nutrients & efficient waste removal. This means skin can function well, stay balanced & healthy. Healthy skin is happy skin, happy skin glows.

It's very exciting to see this holistic approach to beauty becoming more mainstream. I always instinctively knew a facial was so much more than just a skin treatment. Now I know it is an excellent addition to any wellbeing regime, offering benefits to mind, body & soul. Beautiful skin is the added bonus!
