I stumbled upon this on my walk this morning after our In Step with the Seasons Nature Therapy Program.

What a gorgeous morning gathering for our In Step with the Seasons Nature Therapy Program, in partnership with 🍂

We found glimmers, new ways of connecting in community, and deepened our relationship with the natural world.

Thank you to our participants! Looking forward to our next gathering in a week! 🍂✨🍁

A few special moments from our signature Flourish in Motherhood program on this gorgeous October morning in Maryland.

Our program brings expecting, postpartum, and early-caregiving moms together in community with one another and Mother Nature. We are pleased to have partnered with the renowned in Roland Park, where participants have access to holistic care and such a welcoming environment. If you haven’t been to Indigo—they have really invited nature into their space. It’s a wonderfully calming place.

One step at a time, we are redefining what support feels like in this era.

Stay tuned for our November gathering!

We were walking to an appointment when all of the sudden I realized this shadow cast in front of us. These are the ordinary moments of my motherhood that I’ll hold close to my heart, because the little things are really the big things—taking our time, soaking up the sun, and being together.

What small moments will you savor this week?

Welcome to Guided in Nature! Whether you’ve been around a while or are new—I’m so glad you’re here. ☀️Here’s a little “about me”—the gal behind the scenes. This photo was taken at a sunflower patch in Maryland during a weekend adventure with my family. Perspective taking is one of my favorite nature therapy activities. It allows us to see things from other angles and appreciate different views. What’s your favorite thing about nature? Say hi and let me know! 👇🏼

What if the rain came to purify? What if it’s here to bring new life. ✨🌿

There is something so peaceful about starting my mornings with this soothing view. 🌹It’s one way that I practice loving my life abundantly, in the present moment. There is so much turmoil in our world. Sometimes it can be difficult to see how we can make an impact. I’m reminded of the ripples we create and the light we radiate to others, like a warm embrace.

What’s your go-to way of loving your life so you can ripple that energy out to all those you come in contact with? ✨

“Mom brain” is a common buzz phrase circulating around these days. 🧠

We usually hear it (or say it) when there’s difficulty—feeling foggy, fatigued, forgetful. 😶‍🌫️

But, what if we look at what really happens to our brains. 👩🏻‍🏫

This helps us practice reframing and perspective shifting. It rewrites the narrative. It’s not a deficit, it’s an ✨upgrade✨to support our initiation into motherhood. 🤰🏻🤰🏾

…..

To be clear, we don’t have to live in a state of fog, fatigue, or forgetfulness. These can sometimes be signs that we need more support, which is key to adjustment in the perinatal and postpartum period. 🔑

Having an understanding that our bodies are programmed to adapt in this way can offer empowerment vs self-judgment. 🦋

So, the next time you hear (or say) something about “mom brain,” remember it’s true meaning and seek or offer support! Let’s flourish in motherhood! Together, we will! ✨🌿✨

What a beautiful time gathering for our Flourish in Motherhood Nature Therapy Group today! Can you feel the joy and support radiating from this amazing group of mamas and babies?! I know I could!

P.S.- This photo was taken by an amazingly talented 4-year-old!

Stay tuned for details on our October gathering. We would love to have you join us for connection, community, and a breath of fresh air! 🌿🍂✨

Today we wrapped up the final session of our Late Summer ✨In Step with the Seasons ✨Nature Therapy Program. We were greeted by this beauty, signaling the arrival of Autumn in a few days. 🍁

What meaning does this image represent for you as we transition from Late Summer into Autumn? 🍂

We’ll see everyone on October 2nd at 10am for our Fall series! To join us, visit www.acupuncturewellnessbaltimore.com ✨

In today’s In Step with the Seasons Nature Therapy Group, we continued walking together through Late Summer. This photo is a visual representation of the changes occurring internally at this time. We can see it so clearly in our external landscape. It is important that we also acknowledge the Late Summer within us.

🌿What is changing or transitioning?

🌿What needs more attention or nourishment?

🌿What is being consumed and digested?

🌿What or who are your supports as you move about this earth?

We explored being present and finding harmony in life during this season from a holistic perspective. And, we found a furry friend who was welcoming and curious about the dates we offered. Can you spot him? 🐿️

Could you benefit from additional support in finding harmony & vitality in the upcoming Fall season? If so, we would love for you to join us! Beginning Wednesday, October 2nd from 10-11am, we’ll gather again at a local Parkville park and practice staying ✨In Step with the Seasons✨ through movement, holistic practices, mindfulness, and authentic community. We hope to see you there! Register at the link in our bio. Just $35/session.

During our In Step with the Seasons Late Summer group this morning, a participant pointed out this amazing tree. 🌳

With childlike curiosity, we wondered about how it came to be and explored metaphors for life which come alive in the natural world. 🌿

It was decided that this is a peace ✌🏻 tree. Can you see it? 🌱

As Late Summer draws near its end, we’re preparing to welcome Fall with our next 6-week series. Beginning in early October, the group will focus on aligning with the season through the lens of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Nature-Informed Therapy practices. Come experience slow living in a beautiful natural setting, practice mindfulness, and enjoy the connection of community. We hope you’ll join us on Wednesdays at 10am. Sign up using the link in our bio. 🍂

This way to harmony and vitality…🌱✌🏻✨

During a family nature walk, we were welcomed to September by the wings of this beauty. 🦋

As summer nears its last stretch, there’s a soft breeze whispering possibility in the approaching reflection of Fall. 🍂

Welcome, sweet September. We honor the transition you invite us into. After all, change is the way of nature. 🌿

Today I had the privilege of providing professional consultation to a fellow mental health professional, centering my expertise in blending Nature-Informed Therapy and Perinatal Mental Health.

It is such a joy to spread the healing of nature!
