Sometimes it’s foot soaks, deep conversations and facilitating sleep. Then there are the days that Mums just need someone to snap their fingers and support the pulling back together of the home.

It’s always a pleasure to be able to do this ✨✨

Pregnant? I’m currently fully booked until May 2026, if you’re looking for postpartum support and would like a no obligation chat, pop me a DM, I’d love to hear from you ❤️

A quiet note to close 2025 ❤️

I have had a very quiet month mostly away from social media after the attack on our Jewish Community in Bondi.

It’s left me without words and contemplating how best to show up and support my own community, Jewish friends and mothers transitioning to motherhood either for the first time, or to motherhood again.

Nervous system support has become a core theme in my work supporting Mothers and in the latter half of 2025 I began studying Advanced Breath Instructor Training. A training that will reshape how I show up for women transitioning to and through motherhood as well as support women in any season of life.

The past few weeks have really highlighted how deeply our collective needs deep nervous system support and tools we can weave into our daily lives. So we can live joyfully, ride the highs and lows and be present in our one beautiful life.

2025 has been a year of slow transitions, personally and professionally, with intention and purpose. It’s been an absolute gift to support growing families and women in transition. As always, I have learned so much from the women I’ve walked beside as they transition to motherhood again or for the first time. I’m forever in awe of women and what we are capable of.

Signing off with a heart full of love, gratitude and hope.

See you all in 2026 for more postpartum support and new offerings to support you through any season of life with breath and nervous system support tools, a space to create stability, softness and strength 💫✨

Interoceptive awareness is sensing and noticing bodily sensations clearly.

What is your body telling you at this time of year?

Mine is screaming for more rest. Slower days. Earlier nights.

Simple down regulating practices you can do to check in and support your nervous system this week

✨ Cadence breathing - making the exhale longer than the inhale. For example 3 counts in, 6 counts out or 2 in, 4 out etc. try this for 2 minutes.
✨Breath and heartbeat sensing. What is your body telling you?
✨Yoga Nidra (or non sleep deep rest) the QUEEN of regulation & rest practices. Even 5-10 minutes will make an impact. has some excellent guided ones on YouTube
✨Schedule early nights to bed when you’ve got the opportunity. Get the rest your body so deeply needs.

These practices allow our bodies to feel safe, which in turn allows us to experience joy on the season we are in 🎄✨

PROTECT YOUR PEACE THIS FESTIVE SEASON 🎄

What is a flexible nervous system?

One that can go from peak height to peak rest, easily. You can go from rushing & switch to a state or rest.

A flexible nervous system is something we need to train within ourselves. Rarely do we just have a flexible nervous system, especially in this season of Mothering.

Cultivating flexibility takes practice and awareness. Here is a suggestion on a place to start ✨

As always, be compassionate with yourself. It is a challenging experience, to recognise our own discomfort and begin to work with it.

Some October highlights ✨✨

Do you go through your photo reel at the end of the month? It’s an excellent way to remind yourself of all that’s happened in the previous weeks. I find it a great way to remind myself how full and wonderful life really is. How did we do all of this in one month? (Not pictured, two of three school transition days)

1, 2 & 3 - School holidays featuring hubs on leave, grandparents & Aunty Lana in Sydney

4, 5 & 6 - nippers, netball & cricket seasons begin

7 - sweet postpartum visits in the sunshine ☀️

8 - morning coastal walks with the beautiful sculpture trail on this month

9, 10 & 11 - a family road trip (including my mum) to Brunswick heads, to celebrate two very special friends birthdays 🎈

12 - Halloween!

13 & 14 - more time at my favourite place while hubs was home, giving me the mornings to myself 🫶 🧘‍♀️

Delicious & decadent but also nutrient filled slice (or cookies!)

This is a little recipe I made up last night, and it turned out delicious, and my kids have been asking for more. This is a win in our household. It’s filling, protein packed and also hits the sweet tooth spot.

The cook time will vary depending on your over, just check it’s not wet on top before taking out of the oven.

Ingredients
1 cup (220 g) cottage cheese
2 eggs
½ tsp vanilla extract
⅓ cup coconut sugar
1 ¼ cup rolled oats (more if the mixture is too wet)
a pinch of salt
¼ cup chocolate chips
1tsp baking powder

Method

Heat oven to 200 degrees

Like a slice dish with baking paper

Load all ingredients excluding the chocolate chips, to a food processor & blitz until smooth ish.

Add the chocolate chips (I would have used more like 1/2 a cup, but 1/4 is a-ok!) & pulse to mix through

Pour mixture into the slice dish & spread evenly

Bake for 20 minutes but check around 15 mins to see how it’s going

Allow to cool before slicing

Can be kept in the fridge or freezer

You could also make this as cooking by lining a tray & scooping the mixture into table spoon size cookies on the tray. Bake time would be closer to 15 mins

Enjoy ✨

✨✨ GLIMMERS ✨✨

What are they and why are they supportive in Motherhood?

Glimmers are small, often subtle, positive experiences that can elicit feelings of safety, connection, and ease. Examples include the feeling of sunshine on your skin, enjoying the outdoor breeze, noticing the peace in a moment, a comforting hug.

When we notice and savour these glimmers, they activate the parasympathetic nervous system, which is responsible for rest, digestion, and overall relaxation, promoting a sense of calm and well-being.

By intentionally noticing and savouring glimmers, we can:

By intentionally noticing and savouring glimmers, we can:

✨Reduce stress and anxiety:
Helping to shift our body out of the “fight or flight” response and into a state of calm

✨Improve mood and well-being:
Positive emotions associated with glimmers can elevate mood and promote a sense of overall well-being. Especially in Motherhood, a time that can be so overwhelming

✨Increase resilience:
By regularly experiencing glimmers, we can strengthen our ability to cope with stress and adversity. This supports the bumpy road that is Motherhood

✨Enhance self-regulation:
Glimmers can help us become more aware of our nervous system responses and develop skills for responding vs reacting and regulating.
