In the fast-paced world of motherhood, it’s easy to get caught up in the whirlwind of daily tasks and responsibilities. But one of the greatest gifts we can give to ourselves and our children is the ability to slow down and savor the present moment. It’s in the quiet moments of sipping coffee in the morning, reading a book, or taking a walk in nature that we reconnect with ourselves and recharge. When we slow down, we not only take care of our own well-being, but we also set an example for our children about the importance of mindfulness and balance.

When children see us taking time for ourselves, they learn that self-care is not a luxury but a necessity. In our busy lives, it's easy to forget that teaching our kids to slow down can help them find peace, too. The world often encourages hustle, but it’s through slowing down that we gain clarity, reduce stress, and embrace the things that truly matter. In turn, our children learn to appreciate the little things—like a quiet morning, a good book, or time spent outdoors.

So, as you move through your day, find moments to slow down. Create a rhythm that encourages balance and relaxation, not just for your children but for yourself as well. In these quiet moments, we build a foundation for healthier, happier families. 🌿📖

Grandma used to say :
- It's not the back that hurts you, but the weight you carry; - It's the eyes that hurt you, but the injustice or what you have to see;
- It's not the head that hurts, it's the thoughts inside it; - It's Not the neck that hurts, but what you don't express or what you say in anger;
- It's not your stomach that hurts, it's what your soul doesn't digest;
- It's not the liver that hurts you, it's the anger you carry that hurts you;
- It is not your heart that is hurting you, but the absence of love and, know that LOVE is the most powerful medicine, my dear!

"They say beauty comes from a spirit that has weathered many hardships in life and somehow continues with resilience.
Grace can be found in a soul who ages softly, even amid the tempest.
I think the loveliest by far is the one whose gentle heart bears a hundred scars from caring,
yet still finds a way to pick up the lamp, one more time, to light the way for love ..."

“If a child is to keep alive his inborn sense of wonder, he needs the companionship of at least one adult who can share it, rediscovering with him the joy, excitement and mystery of the world we live in”

“Right now there are Tibetan Buddhist monks in a temple in the Himalayas endlessly reciting mantras for the cessation of your suffering and for the flourishing of your happiness.

Someone you haven't met yet is already dreaming of adoring you.

Someone is writing a book that you will read in the next two years that will change how you look at life.

Nuns in the Alps are in endless vigil, praying for the Holy Spirit to alight the hearts of all of God's children.

A farmer is looking at his organic crops and whispering, "nourish them."

Someone wants to kiss you, to hold you, to make tea for you.

Someone is willing to lend you money, wants to know what your favorite food is, and treat you to a movie.
Someone in your orbit has something immensely valuable to give you — for free.

Something is being invented this year that will change how your generation lives, communicates, heals and passes on.

The next great song is being rehearsed.

Thousands of people are in yoga classes right now intentionally sending light out from their heart chakras and wrapping it around the earth.

Millions of children are assuming that everything is amazing and will always be that way.

Someone is in profound pain, and a few months from now, they'll be thriving like never before. From where they are, they just can't see it.

Someone who is craving to be partnered, to be acknowledged, to arrive, will get precisely what they want — and even more. And because that gift will be so fantastical in its reach and sweetness, it will quite magically alter their memory of angsty longing and render it all "So worth the wait."

Someone has recently cracked open their joyous, genuine nature because they did the hard work of hauling years of oppression off of their psyche — this luminous juju is floating in the ether, and is accessible to you.

Someone just this second wished for world peace, in earnest.

Some civil servant is making sure that you get your mail, and your garbage is picked up, that the trains are running on time, and that you are generally safe.

Someone is dedicating their days to protecting your civil liberties and clean drinking water.

Someone is regaining their sanity.
Someone is coming back from the dead.
Someone is genuinely forgiving the seemingly unforgivable.
Someone is curing the incurable.

You. Me. Some. One. Now.

Beautiful words about Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer, author of Braiding Sweetgrass, scientist, professor, and member of the Citizen Potawatomi Nation:
“Sweetgrass is a really good name for it, and in our language, her name is Wiingaashk. In the Potawatomi language, Wiingaashk refers to that sweet fragrance for sure, that wonderful vanilla-like fragrance. But it also refers to the fact that it is a ceremonial, sacred plant for us, and a teacher.
It’s also a healing plant, and the way that it heals is so interesting. Ecologically, it is a healer of broken, open land. It’s a pioneer species that comes and binds up the soil with its rhizomes. But it’s also a cultural healer, a spiritual healing plant as well.
We revere that plant. We revere Sweetgrass, or Wiingaashk, for a number of reasons, but one of which is in our oldest stories.
Sweetgrass is understood as the hair of Mother Earth – that sweet, shining long hair. And just as we braid the hair of someone that we love to enhance their beauty, to care for them, as a real tangible sign of our loving and caring relationship with one another, our people braid Sweetgrass. It is a metaphor and a pragmatic representation of our care for Mother Earth.
That plant is a braid of stories, which are made up of three strands. One of those strands is Indigenous knowledge and traditional environmental thinking about plants from the Native perspective.
Another one of the strands is scientific knowledge about plants, and then there’s that third strand that makes up the beautiful braid.
The way that I think of that third strand is the knowledge that the plants themselves hold – not what we can learn about plants, but what we can learn from plants.”

"Mitakuye Oyasin"

Me: Why am I alive?
Old woman: Because everything else is.

Me: No. I mean the purpose.
Old Woman: That is the purpose. To learn about your relatives.

Me: My family?
Old Woman: Yes. The moon, stars, rocks, trees, plants, water, insects, birds, mammals. Your whole family. Learn about that relationship. How you're moving through time and space together.
That's why you're alive.
