Let’s talk about something a little less conventional—but definitely buzzing in wellness circles lately: vaginal steaming. I remember hearing about it from a friend who swore it “balanced everything down there.” Naturally, curiosity got the better of me. But here’s the thing: when you’re dealing with something like bacterial vaginosis (BV), you don’t want to…
For as long as I can remember, I’ve had this odd, almost indescribable sense of imbalance. Not the typical kind you feel after spinning in circles—this was different. It would come in waves, sometimes paired with a dull throbbing in my head or this odd pressure behind one eye. It wasn’t until years later that…
If you’ve ever caught yourself slouching at your desk or holding your breath without realizing it, you’re not alone. I never really paid attention to how anxiety crept into my posture and breath patterns until I started feeling physically drained all the time. It wasn’t just mental stress—it was showing up in my shoulders, my…
Bacterial Vaginosis is one of those frustrating conditions that sneaks up on you when life is already chaotic. I remember the first time I dealt with it—I was freshly back from a beach trip, a mix of sweat, saltwater, and synthetic underwear. Within days, I noticed that unmistakable fishy odor and unusual discharge that had…

If you’ve ever found yourself hunched over your laptop, only to look up hours later with a stiff neck and throbbing lower back, welcome to the club. I’ve been there more times than I’d like to admit. That daily grind, especially working remotely or sitting through long meetings, adds up—and the posture tax is real….
I never thought a tiny device clipped to my back would become my new accountability partner, but here we are. Working from home, hunched over a laptop at odd angles for hours, I started noticing those subtle yet nagging twinges in my lower spine. At first, I brushed it off—just a part of modern life,…
Let’s be real for a second—slouching just kind of… happens. Whether you’re working at a desk, scrolling on your phone for hours, or even binge-watching your favorite show on the couch (guilty!), poor posture can creep in without warning. I’ve personally tried everything from lumbar pillows to nagging myself with reminders, but nothing quite made…
One night I was just lying in bed, trying to enjoy the soothing mist from my new humidifier. Everything felt calm—until I noticed those tiny squiggly shapes drifting across my vision. Again. I blinked a few times, rubbed my eyes, even turned off the light thinking it was just shadows, but nope—those floaters were still…
