Start with what you’ve got. Build what you want.
Who the Hell Is MacGyver?
MacGyver was an 80s TV legend who could defuse bombs, stop villains, and save lives using nothing but a paperclip, duct tape, and random trash.
No weapons. No whining. Just radical resourcefulness.
We honor him here because he taught us:
You’re never as powerless as you think — if you work with what you’ve got.
Before you go buying new wellness gear, check your real‑life toolbox.
You might already have what you need.
We’re not here to sell you something first.
We’re here to remind you: You’re already resourceful.
First Rule of Energy Economics:
​
Check your fridge before buying more food.
Translation?
Don’t buy more wellness sh*t until you’ve inventoried what you already have.

BODY RECALIBRATION TOOLS
Prescription: The Doorframe Reset
Got a doorframe? Congrats. You’ve got a shoulder‑release sanctuary.
Stand in the doorway.
Place hands on either side of the frame.
Step one foot forward and let your chest stretch open like a superhero cape.
Hold for 60 seconds. Breathe.
Do this between emails. Before sleep. After bad news.
Body = less crispy. Mood = more heroic.
“Feel like the weight of the world’s on your shoulders? That’s because it is. Most people store a hoarder’s worth of tension up there. Don’t be a trauma hoarder — stretch it out.”
​
Prescription: The Spoon of Truth
Grab a wooden spoon from your kitchen. Roll it under your foot — gently at first.
Boom: reflexology wand activated.
Bonus: it won’t judge your life choices like your foam roller does.
“Your feet are a map. Every knot, nerve, and ache is a pin dropped by your body saying: Hey, remember me?”
MENTAL RECALIBRATION
Prescription: Mental Raid
Get a small spray bottle. Fill it with water. Add rose water.
Maybe a drop of holy water if you’re feeling extra‑exorcist today.
​
Now imagine every negative thought as a cockroach.
Yes, gross. You’ll remember it.
Spray your brain. Spray your face.
Spray your cousin if she’s being passive‑aggressive.
Your new first line of defense against negative self‑talk.
“You think your life’s cursed? Nope. It’s just the psychic roaches. Spray accordingly.”
​
Prescription: The Timer Hustle
Set a 15‑minute timer. Do one thing you’ve been avoiding.
When the timer ends, you’re free. No shame. No guilt.
Just one win.
“Procrastination isn’t laziness — it’s fear in sweatpants. Set the timer. Do one brave thing.”

Personal Note from Karen
I’m the youngest of seven kids.
By the time I came along, the encyclopedias were ravaged and the good scissors were gone.
I did book reports on giraffes just because G was the only volume left.
So I got scrappy.
I MacGyvered everything — dioramas, costumes, essays.
That instinct stuck.
Energy. Movement. Wellness.
I still ask: “What can I do with what I have?”
You’re not starting from zero.
You’ve got tools.
Let’s use them.

We know, we know.
But when my mom was sick, Amazon was my lifeline.
So… hate the player, not the game.
Final Note
We don’t want you to buy our stuff because you’re empty.
We want you to buy it because you’re already creating —
and now you want to play.
If you never spend a dollar on EFK but feel more joyful, regulated, and energized?
We’ve done our job.
But if you want the fun stuff?
We’ve got you.
