What an inspiring day celebrating women in business. I was honoured to be nominated alongside Christal Geier of Take Flight and 20 other amazing women, in the Mountain View and Neighbors Women in Business – For Profit category.

Although neither of us won, we spoke often this past week about how being part of a community of women who are passionate about serving others and building something meaningful, lifting each other up, is a gift in itself.

As we celebrate International Women’s Day I’m reminded how powerful it is when women support and champion each other.

Let’s continue to shine brightly and lead boldly!

And an incredible thank you to Mrs. Louise McKinney of Claresholm & Mrs. Nellie McClung of Calgary for their historical unwavering support in making this all possible....for without these brave women none of this would be possible.

Today is World Lymphedema Awareness Day 🦋

Lymphedema happens when the lymphatic system is unable to move fluid effectively, allowing lymph to build up in the tissues and create swelling, heaviness, and changes in the skin.

The lymphatic system plays an important role in fluid balance, immune function, and tissue health. When it’s under strain or damaged, the body may need additional support to help keep things moving.

Awareness matters. Understanding the signs of lymphedema and learning how to support lymphatic health can make a meaningful difference for many people.

Today is about continuing the conversation around lymphatic health and supporting those living with lymphedema every day. 🦋

The body is constantly communicating — through sensation, tension, rhythm, and response. Integrative practices like reflexology offer a way to listen more closely.

Through skilled, intentional touch, the body provides biofeedback that can reflect how it’s responding to stressors — whether physical, emotional, mental, or energetic. Often, especially with chronic stress, the mind adapts long before the body does. The body may continue to carry patterns long after we’ve “understood” what’s happening.

By bringing awareness to these responses and supporting them with gentle care, space is created for physiological shifts to occur. When insight is paired with small, intentional changes in habits, movement, and self-care, the body is better supported in finding balance.

Integrative health isn’t about forcing change — it’s about listening, responding, and working with the body to support overall wellbeing and quality of life.

I was referred to Colleen at Lymph in Motion by a friend of ours after having some swelling in my neck and jaw area. I have suffered from migraine headaches for years and just feeling blah and brain fog and puffiness all over. I booked in with Colleen and as soon as I met her I fell in love. She was very caring and listened to all my concerns and addressed every single one of them. I had never had a lymphatic massage before so I didn’t know what to expect. She explained everything before she would do it and explained why she was doing it. It was very gentle. After my first session I felt like melted butter. Just as relaxed as I would after a normal massage but I felt lighter. I have continued to go to Coll.een for over a year and she has worked her magic little fingers on me. I no longer feel brain fog, sluggish or that “puffy/bloated feeling”.

Colleen is such a kind soul. You can tell she takes a lot of care and passion in her career in helping others feel better and is very educated in all the techniques she has to offer.

I will continue to support Colleen in her small business and refer all my friends and family as long as they don’t take my appointment slots LOL

We are wrapping up the swelling mini series with part four! This was a fun way to dive deeper into the science of swelling and lymphatic support. As always, you can always refer back to all the posts from this series in my highlights.

Hydration plays a foundational role in lymphatic function.

Lymph is primarily composed of water, along with proteins, immune cells, fats, and cellular waste. Its movement depends on fluid balance between the blood vessels, tissues, and lymphatic vessels.

When we are adequately hydrated, blood plasma volume is better maintained. This supports healthy capillary exchange — the process where fluid moves out of blood vessels into tissues and is then collected by the lymphatic system. Proper hydration helps maintain optimal viscosity (thickness) of both blood and lymph, allowing fluid to move more efficiently through lymphatic vessels.

When dehydration occurs, plasma volume decreases and fluid can become more concentrated. This increases viscosity and may slow lymphatic transport, making it more difficult for the system to effectively clear metabolic waste, inflammatory byproducts, and excess interstitial fluid.

Hydration also supports kidney function and overall fluid regulation, which works in coordination with the lymphatic system to maintain tissue balance.

While hydration alone doesn’t “flush” the lymphatic system, adequate fluid intake creates the physiological conditions that allow lymphatic movement to occur more efficiently — especially when combined with movement and breath.

Consistent hydration supports flow at the most basic level.

Wishing everyone a Happy Family Day 🤍

Wether it’s spending time with your family, chosen family, community, friends, little ones, or even the pets who greet you at the door — today is a reminder to slow down and appreciate the connections that support and surround us.

May your day hold moments of rest, warmth, and togetherness in whatever way feels meaningful to you.
