Soulful Stillness:
Water has a way of meeting us exactly where we are.

Beneath the surface, it holds what we’re not ready to name. Above the surface, it reflects what we’ve survived. And within it… something in us remembers how to loosen our grip.

Whether we’re swimming, wading, or simply standing at the edge, water teaches us the sacred art of not giving up, but giving in to the truth of the moment.

Letting the current carry what’s too heavy. Letting the ripples soothe what’s been tense for too long. And, letting ourselves be held without needing to perform strength.

As we enter 2026, I’m reminded that growth rarely looks like a clean, upward line.

It’s more like a tide rising, retreating, reshaping us quietly from within. If the 2025 year stretched you, softened you, or asked more of you than you expected, I hope you meet yourself with gentleness as you cross into the next chapter.

You don’t need resolutions carved in stone. You don’t need to reinvent yourself overnight. All you need is one honest step, and then another.

May the new year bring steadier ground, deeper belonging, and moments that remind you you’re alive in the best ways.

Here’s to a year that feels more aligned, more spacious, and more you.

Happy New Year, my friends.

Woven Wonders: Coming in 2026 ✨

I’m opening a Mind Revitalized counselling office for in-person therapy.

I will continue to offer virtual therapy as it is valuable, accessible, and supportive in its own unique way. And I also believe there is something important about sitting together in a quiet office, sharing the same space, and allowing connection to form in a very human way.

I’m finding more people are looking for in-person therapy, and I wanted to be able to offer that option. Being physically present together allows for attunement, subtle cues, and a kind of connection that doesn’t always translate through a screen.

I’m really looking forward to holding this space and keeping in-person therapy alive as part of my work.

Mindful Moments:
The holidays don’t just leave people tired. For some, they leave a quiet heaviness behind.

After weeks of heightened emotion, social demand, pressure, memory, grief, and overstimulation, it’s common to feel low once it’s over.

Flat. Tearful. Disconnected. Unmotivated. Drained. Sometimes even depressed.

Totally normal! This isn’t weakness. It’s physiology, psychology, and lived experience catching up. The nervous system downshifts. The adrenaline fades.

A few gentle ways to support yourself right now:

🐾 lower expectations (this is a recovery window)

🐾 return to simple routines

🐾 get daylight and slow movement

🐾 rest without earning it

🐾 reach out if the heaviness lingers or deepens

And if what you’re feeling is more than tired, if it feels dark, heavy, or hard to carry alone…support matters. You don’t have to push through this season by yourself.

Sometimes the most therapeutic thing we can do is let ourselves rest…like my Tisa. 💤 🐾

Take gentle care.

Soulful Stillness:
There’s something tender about the way animals remind us that seeking warmth isn’t weakness, it’s wisdom.

We all have moments where the world feels a little too cold, a little too sharp. And sometimes the bravest thing we can do is let ourselves be held, supported, or carried for a stretch.

You don’t have to push through everything alone. There’s no shame in choosing comfort when you need it.

Wishing you a gentle Christmas and a grounded holiday season. Whether this time of year feels bright, complicated, or somewhere in between, I hope you meet it with kindness toward yourself.

May there be pockets of quiet, moments of laughter, and people who make your nervous system soften.

And if this season stirs old feelings or tender memories, you’re not doing anything wrong. You’re human, and you’re allowed to hold both joy and ache at the same time.

From my heart to yours,
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays. Take good care of yourself out there.

Woven Wonders:
There’s something comforting about the small moments this time of year. The glow of the tree, the hush in the room, and my little Luma curled up in her basket like the world is finally simple again.

We spend so much time chasing big memories, big meaning, big change…but softness often lives in the quiet corners, like a dog with her bone, a warm light, a breath that settles the body.

If this season feels heavy or complicated, I hope you still find a pocket of calm like this one. A moment that reminds you that peace doesn’t need to be grand to be real.

Here’s to tiny joys, gentle grounding, and whatever brings your nervous system back home.

Mindful Moments:
There’s something tender about watching a little creature choose warmth without hesitation.

Luma settled herself in front of the fire tonight as if she were guarding a portal to stillness, which is rare by the way. Usually she’s bouncing off the walls 😂

But in these moments, she’s reminding me that our systems crave what feels steady and safe. Winter asks a lot of us. Slowness. Patience. The courage to rest instead of perform.

But sometimes all we need is one warm place to land, one small moment where the body says, “Here. This is enough.”

May we all find our version of the fire tonight. Something quiet. Something steady. Something that reminds us we belong.

12/21/2025

Soulful Stillness:
In the stillness of the longest night, something ancient stirs.

We are not broken for needing rest. We are not lost for craving silence. We are simply following what the earth already knows, and that, is that the dark is not the end. It is the beginning.

Healing begins in the quiet.
The light will return. But tonight, we honour the dark for all it has held.

Happy Winter Solstice.

Mindful Moments:
“Behaviour is surface-level. The underneath is where the need lives.”

I’m reminded of this every time Luma gets into something she shouldn’t. On the surface it looks like mischief, an ornament stolen…..a pile of wood chips tucked into her bed.

But underneath is a little nervous system learning her world, searching for stimulation, comfort, connection, or simply the relief of chewing through big feelings.

Humans aren’t much different. What we show isn’t always what we mean. A shutdown, a sharp tone, a retreat, a rush…

These are surface-level signals. Beneath them lives something more honest: fear, longing, overwhelm, exhaustion, hope.

When we pause long enough to look underneath, in ourselves or in someone we care about, understanding replaces frustration. And compassion finally has room to breathe.
