As the road stretches on, what we carry with us begins to matter more than what we leave behind. The relics we have created are not only tools for care—they are markers of a greater journey. Each one also has a back story, drawn from lives that remind us of resilience, transformation, and the choices that shape us.

These fact-based stories are offered not as history lessons, but as companions. Each carries its own theme—sometimes of endurance, sometimes of vision, sometimes of release—threads that, together, illuminate the path ahead. In this way, the path of self-care and the path of story begin to walk side by side.

It is here that the first relic, Chisos, finds its place. Like breath moving through the body, it asks us to release what is heavy, to clear space, and to begin again with what is essential.
