Yes yes yes my friends.

How Prenatal Yoga Can Help Protect Your Energy (And Why This Is Important!) - Birthful You’ve been told to do prenatal yoga, but is it for you? Trauma-informed yoga teacher Abigail Lauren says not if it’s an overwhelming thing on your to-do list!

Last Mother Circle till April tonight at 6pm.
1 spot left if you’re a tired Mom looking for support through yoga, journal prompts, sound healing, and good ol fashioned connection. DM me to save a spot

What would you say to a dear friend that came to you in tears after yelling at her child and feeling shame?

Would you say, “You are a terrible Mother. Why can’t you just hold it together?”
…Hell no.
If I know any of you loving forces out there, I know that you would offer a warm hug and say “You are not a terrible Mother, You felt threatened and you reacted. You’re still a good person.”

That is exactly how I’d love for all Mothers to practice changing your internal dialogue. Instead of indulging in the harsh inner critic, find truthful, kind words that soothe your frayed nervous system.

Talk to yourself as you would your best friend.
Think helping instead of shaming.

It may feel unfamiliar and awkward initially, but with repetition your new habit of kindness will get stronger.

Mother Circle tonight at 6pm.
DM me to reserve your spot.

Your consciousness is what you feed it.

Mother Circle tonight 6pm

SO many moms I talk to say CLUTTER is their #1 stressor.
We live in a ridiculously high consumer society. If you want anything, it could be at your doorstep in two days. (And in the landfill within 2 years) Accessibility is abundant, but our planet and minds are suffering! 😭

This can be deflated with baby steps.
So Mama, what can you take out of your house today????

Pic below is my new shoe bench after I purged too many extra shoes! Feeling lighter baby!

I found this out when I first experienced birth, but learned it to be the truth about Mother Circle and yoga practice:
Security allows vulnerability and authenticity.

Be a truth seeker!

After meditation and journaling, Many mothers tell me (and I totally agree) that one thing they want to change is remembering to nourish their own bodies.

We put so much energy into providing nutritious food for our children but often times lack in providing our own temple with what it needs to thrive.

So here’s your daily reminder, Mama, to take a slow moment for yourself and make (or shop for) something healthy that you enjoy. Because when you’re nourished, the whole family is nourished.

Rippling’ away

All the eggs a woman will ever carry form in her ovaries while she is a four-month-old fetus in the womb of her mother.
This means our cellular life as an egg begins
in the womb of our grandmother.
Each of us spent five months in our
grandmother’s womb, and she in turn
formed in the womb of her grandmother.
We vibrate to the rhythm of our mother’s blood before she herself is born, and this pulse is the thread of blood that runs all the way back through the grandmothers to the first mother.

Were Women
