Health & Wellness

Programs and products I’ve explored in my own wellness journey. Personal experiences are not medical promises.

HEAL with Tracy program overview, features and founder Tracy Rodriguez, without pricing
Featured program

HEAL with Tracy

Gentle Movement & Whole-Body Wellness

Why I’m sharing it: I’ve used HEAL with Tracy as part of my movement routine and appreciate its thoughtful approach to exercise.

This program has been incredibly gentle on my body, giving it the time and support it needs to heal. I can follow the exercises and structure without the added pain or regret I’ve experienced with other approaches. The knowledge and guidance surrounding hypermobility, MCAS, chronic hives, and POTS have been invaluable. Beyond the exercises, the program offers practical insights that help me rethink my daily routines, make more informed food choices, and approach my health goals in a way that works with my body rather than against it.

Little things that help

Kitchen & meal prep

Ninja QB1004 Blender / Food Processor

I love this blender! Its multi-level blade design helps blend ingredients evenly from top to bottom, so I’m not left with chunky spots or ingredients getting stuck in one area. One of my favorite features is how easily and thoroughly it cleans! I can wash the blades and container without having to unscrew or disassemble the blade assembly, making cleanup quick and convenient. It’s a practical kitchen favorite that makes both blending and cleanup so much easier!

Personal care

Nudge Cinnamon & Clove Toothpaste

I love this toothpaste! It’s a newer discovery for me, and the cinnamon and clove flavor is one of my favorite things about it. Mint-flavored toothpastes tend to make me gag, and many traditional formulas irritate my extremely sensitive teeth. This toothpaste has been a welcome alternative! It’s formulated with nano-hydroxyapatite, an ingredient studied for supporting tooth enamel and remineralization. I’m excited to see how it performs with continued use and whether I notice long-term improvements in my teeth.

MTN OPS Ignite — Bugle Berry

I’ve been enjoying MTN OPS Bugle Berry for about three years, and recently I’ve added Rocky Mountain Ricky to my favorites! Both are sweet, flavorful additions to my water that make it easier and more enjoyable to stay hydrated throughout the day. I also love that MTN OPS offers more than just flavored drinks. Their collection includes warm beverages, energy blends, and options designed for relaxation, giving you a variety of choices depending on your needs and preferences.
