The more we know... the better we do.

The Mental Health First Aid course is an excellent way to share, learn + have honest conversations about mental health.

Cost for this certification course is $200... however, for the next course (on March 23rd) - registration will be TWO for ONE.
So, if you register, you can bring someone with you for FREE🙌

It's important that mental health education is accessible for everyone 🧠📝🖤

Register online (www.mellowkali.shop) or send me DM / email.

Think this course would be great for your agency/employees?
YOU'RE RIGHT!!
*many places have funding for these types of courses. If you would like to provide more information to your place of work, let me know + I can share a document with further info*

Society tends to forget that men need self care too (have you ever noticed that most ‘wellness’ brands are focused on women?)
It’s true.

Mellow Kali is about wellness + self care for EVERYONE.
P or V - doesn’t matter to me ( ).

All Mellow Kali products are gender neutral + inclusive (larger ring/bracelet sizes + bad ass designs) 🤘

This is the perfect gift set for any of the cool dudes in your life 😎

↠ Lime Beard Oil (in a black skull bottle) *can also be used as a massage oil 😉*
↠ XL Spinner Ring (available in sizes 11 + 12 for man hands)
↠ Skull Chain + Lava Bead Bracelet (large size / cool design)

Tag someone in the comments who you think would want this gift set ↡↡
(I’ll be sending out a few sets for free to share the love).

p.s. this set is not available online (yet) as I’ve only got a few to offer.
If you want one - send me a DM 🖤

If you’re looking for the perfect family vacation - head to Mexico 🇲🇽

People tend to think Mexico isn’t safe (I’m sure in some spots it isn’t) but overall, it is.

We went to Cancun last year + the Maya Riveria this year. Both experiences were amazing ✨ beautiful weather, friendly people + delicious food.

This year we stayed (Beach).
There are 6 hotels on this strip + you can access all of them for dinners + activities (one is adults only - so no kiddos at that one).

It’s a big area, but has a small resort feel.
Our favourite activities were swimming in the many pools, enjoying food at the restaurants, walking along the beach searching for treasures, exploring the other resorts + hitting up the kids water park.
SO MUCH FUN!!

Glad to be home, but already missing that sunshine ☀️😎.
Time to start planning for next year 😉.

Vacations really are the ultimate self care experience (except the travelling part… more on that later).

What’s the best vacay you’ve been on?!

Your body + brain require rest in order to function.

The ADHD brain needs even more rest or recovery time (which is really annoying sometimes).

Read through these slides + reflect on the type of rest you need right now (it’s ok if it’s more than one type🖤)

For me - I need some sensory rest (I always need sensory rest) + creativity rest.

What kind of rest do you need?

You know that feeling when you walk in a store + it just feels right?!
It’s beautifully curated, you feel excited to see what’s there, it smells nice, the people are kind + the products being sold are high quality + from Canadian companies.

Every time I go into in Napanee - that’s the vibe ✨

So when they posted about a collaboration opportunity, I jumped on it.
It’s important to me to support local businesses that align with my values, especially ones that are run by bad ass women 💪

Take a scroll through + check out some of the cool products I picked up 🙌

They also offer permanent jewelry ✨🖤✨
(did someone say matching best friend bracelets?!) + host cool, community based events.

I feel super grateful to use this platform not only to promote my brand + share about mental health, but to also support + promote other local businesses/brands too!

Over here it’s about community > competition.

Drop a 🖤 in the comments if you feel the same.

+ take a trip to Napanee to check out (you’re going to love it).

I didn’t watch the Golden Globes.
I never do, but I did watch the opening monologue (on the internet this morning).
IT WAS JUST A JOKE!!!

The problem is…

It’s always ‘just a joke’.

Men have been diminishing + patronizing women using ‘jokes’ for ever.

It’s just not funny. Give it up.

That’s all.

What are your thoughts on this?!

I don’t know the last time I felt emotions like that:
disappointment + rage + sadness + self loathing + grief + shame + more

While on a hike, I lost the diamond from my engagement ring 😔
I went to take some shots of these new Fidget Rings + noticed the diamond was gone.
My heart dropped 💔 + I felt like I wanted to puke. I knew I wouldn’t be able to find it in the snow. I also noticed the emotion of shame arise very quickly.

This ring is my favourite thing I own + it’s one of a kind. I felt like a horrible person for losing it.

I called my partner (who was obvs upset as well) but reminded me that it could be worse. That’s it’s replaceable.
That snapped me out of it a bit.
I finished my walk, did lots of deep breathing + refocused my attention.

I’m still sad.
I still hope I find the diamond or figure out a way to replace it.
But in the grand scheme of life - the most important things aren’t things 🖤

Engagement ring fiasco aside - how dope are these new fidget rings?!

Studded + Sparkly ✌️✨

Self-worth is an internal sense of feeling good enough; worthy of love + connection with others.

It’s common for neurodivergent people to have low self worth.
Being socially awkward, struggling in school
+ always being told “you have so much potential, just PAY ATTENTION + TRY HARDER” f***s with how you see yourself.

How you see your self influences how you think, feel + act, which can sometimes lead to harmful, risky, self sabotaging behaviours. Ultimately causing a cycle of doing sh*tty things + being told you’re a sh*tty person.
A vicious cycle.
One that I got trapped in as a teen + young adult.

I do have to say, teenage me ↠ slide 3 ↠
would be proud of who I am today.
I still have my moments, but I definitely have a better idea of my worth + act accordingly 🙌🖤

Developing self worth starts with ↡↡
↠ awareness + self reflection
then
↠ self acceptance
followed by
↠ self love 🖤

I’m currently in the self acceptance phase, but I’m getting there.

Where are you in your self love journey?
awareness - acceptance - self love?

BALANCE » to keep or put something in a steady position so that it does not fall.

↡↡↡↡

A balanced life can help us stay steady when all the bu****it starts happening (which it will - because that’s life).

Balance can be hard to achieve, but it is possible. Sometimes having a ‘balancing prompt’ can be helpful.

That’s what the Balance Blend is for.
It’s a reminder for you (+ your brain) to stop, breathe + re-assess what you NEED in that moment.

So, wherever you are - just stop, take out your Balance roller + deeply inhale, rub some on your wrist or neck + ask yourself what you need in that moment to find your balance.

Then honour that.

Even, if it means saying no, cancelling plans, leaving a situation, changing your environment. Whatever you need for your personal balance - do it 🖤

p.s. how cool is this tagged bridge?
I love seeing art in nature 🎨🌿

Stuff your own stocking.

Have you seen that viral video of the family on Christmas morning opening stockings + everyone has one except the mom?

I feel like that’s a common occurrence + it’s bu****it.

People (moms especially) work so fu***ng hard, they deserve to have their stocking stuffed full of thoughtful gifts.
However, for many, this isn’t likely to happen.

If someone isn’t going to stuff your stocking - do it yourself. Buy nice things for yourself + fill that thing right up to the top.
You deserve it 🖤

Lots of options for everyone on your shopping list (including yourself) 😉
