So long to the year of the Snake.๐Ÿ

To the women walking beside me, endless gratitude.๐Ÿ™

You held space and witnessed without judgment.โ€จYou held me through trials and tears.โ€จYou met me exactly where I was.โ€จYou allowed me to process without projection.โ€จYou lay beside me when I was down and helped me rise when I was ready.โ€จYou gently nudged me forward when I needed the push.โ€จYou celebrated every joy and every win.
You fully saw me.โ€จAnd in doing so, you gave me the courage to fully step into my truth.

I love you dearly โค๏ธ

As the holiday season quickly approaches, we often find ourselves caught up in the whirlwind of preparations, obligations, and festivities, leaving hardly an ounce of time for ourselves. While the season is about both giving AND receiving, itโ€™s essential to remember that self care ISNโ€™T selfish. In fact, itโ€™s quite the opposite-by giving to ourselves first, we can more fully give to others.๐Ÿต

Iโ€™ve teamed up with holistic wellness guru Melissa Maxwell ( ) and Iโ€™m excited to invite you to โ€œGrounded + Gratefulโ€, an exclusive event designed specifically for the hardworking mamas like YOU๐Ÿซต๐Ÿป

I hope you will RECIVE this invitation for our special 2.5 hour in person, pre-holiday event. That is aimed at providing you with a tranquil space to pause, immerse yourself in restorative self-care practices and connect with a community of incredible women who understand your journey.๐Ÿ’•

Remember, by taking this time to nourish your well-being, youโ€™re not only benefitting yourself, youโ€™re setting a positive example for your family. Self are isnโ€™t complicated-itโ€™s an act of love that radiates to hose around you! ๐Ÿ’†๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธ

EVENT DETAILS:
๐Ÿ—“๏ธ11.11.2023
โฑ๏ธ1pm-3:30pm
๐Ÿ“Rockville, MD (location is being finalized and will be revealed SOON)

We canโ€™t wait to see you there-taking a well deserved and much needed break to ring in the holiday season with peace, joy, and gratitude.๐Ÿ™โค๏ธ๐Ÿง˜๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธ

Social media has made us (falsely) believe that life is easy and that perfection exists. So much of what we see is curated to only show one side of life. Weโ€™re often afraid to be imperfect or to have emotions that are anything but bright and sunny.

BUT

The brain learns and it remembers. Our childhood, our traumas, our thoughts, emotionsโ€ฆitโ€™s all held in the brain and not only influences our behaviors, but how our body moves. I am a constant observer of even the slightest eye movement my clients make because it is informing me of what is happening in their nervous system. Understanding their history/background provides context and thus we can work more effectively. It is when people expose the โ€œnot so prettyโ€ that I gain the most information..itโ€™s when I get to learn their story and understand how to truly help them heal.

Journeying on a path to understand the brain is the greatest gift Iโ€™ve given myself. It not only makes me better at my profession, it makes me a better human to other humans. So, show me your dark and stormy. Letโ€™s face obstacles and ride through them together. This is where I see YOU, your truth.

Remember this time last year when all of our plans had been cancelled and our schedules suddenly allowed us to do nothing more than enjoy the company of our families?

When we were left with no other option than to ๏ผณ๏ผฌ๏ผฏ๏ผท ๏ผค๏ผฏ๏ผท๏ผฎ, I recall hearing the same sentiment from everyone I talked to...โ€I am reminded about what is truly important in this life.โ€

We collectively...

Huddled around the kitchen table eating family meals๐Ÿฒ

Played board games๐ŸŽฒ

Enjoyed films cuddled on the couch๐Ÿซ‚

Connected to our neighbors in a meaningful way as we delighted in conversations during daily โ€œdistancedโ€ happy hours๐Ÿฅ‚

Immersed ourselves in nature and physical activityโ˜€๏ธ๐ŸŒบ๐Ÿคธ๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธ

Utilized technology in the way it was designed...to keep those far away close๐Ÿ’ป๐Ÿ’•

But as life has gradually began to resume, so has the chaos. I, as many other have, got caught up throwing myself into work (because what else was there to do?๐Ÿคท๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธ) and started filling my weeks with plans with friends (because weโ€™re allowed to do so now๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿป).

And, in the midst, I found myself feeling overwhelmed and approaching burnout๐Ÿ˜ณ

The important thing is that I caught myself before it was too late. I decided to hit the แด˜แด€แดœ๊œฑแด‡ button ๐Ÿง˜๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธ, step away from the stress and get back to doing more of what I love...ditching the screen (when not working) and being out in nature admiring the miracles and magic that exist all around us. ๐ŸŒ„โœจ

As much as I love providing you with useful content to help improve your lives, I canโ€™t sustain it if Iโ€™m not practicing what I preach. I needed to take a step back and resume doing things like this...sitting on the edge of the water enjoying the quiet as I take a break before my next climb. ๐Ÿง—๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธ

Iโ€™m feeling rejuvenated and more balanced, but in order to keep it that way, Iโ€™ll continue to be more mindful about how much time I spend with the social media world. I hope you will do the same!
