Welcome to My Soft Corner of the Internet

Hi, I’m Sinikka — and if you’ve found your way here, you might be tired, overwhelmed, wired-but-exhausted, or simply craving something that feels real.
Same. You’re in the right place.

This space is part of the Wander and Rest Life family — but this corner? It’s the unfiltered one. The slower one. The one with tea stains on the planner and a heat pack permanently glued to my back.

It’s where I write about living with chronic illness, parenting a brilliant neurodivergent child, and figuring out how to rest when life doesn’t exactly make that easy.


Real Talk, Gentle Living

I’m not here to preach green juice or morning routines that start at 5am (I mean… absolutely not). What I am here for is:

  • Encouragement when you feel like a soggy tissue

  • Gentle honesty about flare days, fatigue, and sensory overload

  • The small wins that deserve big applause (like… brushing your hair. Or not.)

You’ll find blog posts that weave together my health journey, travel stories, wellness tools, and random-but-lovely things that help me keep going.


Tools, Truths & Things That Help

This isn’t just a place to talk about healing — it’s a place to make it feel doable. You’ll also find:

  • Printable planners and wellness kits

  • Affiliate finds that actually help (no gimmicks, just goodness)

  • My favourite comfort tools — from magnesium balms to sensory-friendly headphones for my son

Think of this as your slow-living starter pack, but made for the real world — not Pinterest.


Come As You Are

Whether you’re here for ideas, validation, or just a soft place to land, I hope this space feels like a deep breath.
You’re not too much. You’re not behind. And you’re definitely not alone.

We’re figuring it out together — one wobbly step, power nap, and Amazon delivery at a time.

Wander well,
Sinikka
