Which part of the holiday season is overwhelming to you?
|
For me its the shopping part! Before I had kids, my husband and I often practiced a Buy Nothing Christmas. But I became a scrooge when I tried to apply that to family life. "What about the magic!?" So I've had to balance my disgust of the consumerist "holiday" and my already overflowing home with the willingness to receive on behalf of family who enjoys giving. One of our compromises is to give and request gifts of experience rather than stuff. With this in mind, I have avoided adding to the noise of BUY NOW! Yet, I do want to give you and your families or friends the chance to shop local, support small business and give the gifts of experience. I've created a Self Care Gifts for Moms gift card with multiple price points. If you are a person who supports moms, this gift will be a winner (and can be claimed any time throughout the year). If you ARE a new mom, add this to your wish list and share with friends and family who are wanting a way to support you. Its really one of those "triple bottom line" gifts that is good for people, the planet and profits!
If you want this on your wish list, forward this email to your friends and family! By the way, this gift card has no expiration date, and it will always be available for purchase. But now sure it a great time to purchase! Now, take a moment for yourself... few deep breaths with eyes closed before you move on to the next email. Blessings, Just so that you know all the ways I can support youLove what I offer? Please leave me a business review on Google or Yelp.

Dear friends, Spring is here! Can you feel the energy shift? I often have a lot of inspiration this time of year and while I know it isn't going to last, I get to learn how to harness it and ride the waves. This weekend I went back to the beginning (a spring theme 🌱) of my Sacred Rhythms' work: I went to a doula training! You see, the birth of my first child, like the birth of every child, was an initiation. Not only into my journey as mother but into the sacred power of birth itself. And...
Dear friends, I want to invite you (or your pregnant friends) to our Embodied Birth Skills childbirth education course. You may have heard me talk about this as an evergreen online course - which it is. AND occasionally, when there is enough interest, I offer this course in person! And there has been interest lately. In person can really be amazing! You get the community aspect in addition to the course material, and there is no way that I can replicate community with an online class. Of...
Dear Reader, Do you trust your body? Do you know how to "listen to your body?" Have you ever felt betrayed by your body? I think a lot of women feel confusion about their bodies, what their bodies are "saying" or are fearful about something in their bodies. I think many of us feel like we wish our bodies could do more. Like, the brain says, "you should be able to just get up and do that thing..." or "just keep going, it will be fine!" and then later it is NOT fine! You're exhausted. And...
