Happy Mother’s Day,
with love and gratitude for all mothers everywhere.

To the exhausted woman,
You run on fumes and still show up.

To the invisible woman,
Your unseen labour has been the foundation all along.

To the woman who loves deeply,
Your love is the softest and most ferocious force in the Universe.

To the powerful woman,
You hold mountains steady. You rebuild. You endure and then you rise…and the whole world shifts because of it.

To the mamas of fur babies,
Love is love in any language — paw, purr, or wag. You give your whole heart and that is everything.

To the caretakers of our precious Papatūānuku (Earth Mother),
and to any woman who holds space and nurtures others…

Every woman who nurtures, protects, and tends to soil, to spirit, to strangers… you are also mother. You, too, belong here.

To every woman who has ever poured herself out so something else could bloom…

I see you.
I honour you.
I love you.

You are the soil and the sun.
You are the hands that stayed.
You are the quiet and the roar.
You are the reason love
knows its own name.

🌸 Mother’s Day Weekend Special Events - Spaces still left in tonight’s session at 6:30 pm and Sunday’s 10am session. Book in today by sending me a DM or email to SanctuaryWithJana@icloud.com. 💐👑

To all the mums and daughters… Gift yourselves a sublime Restorative Yoga with Yoga Nidra session over Mother’s Day weekend at Sanctuary, my new well-being space in Riverton.

I’m offering two sessions, with the first on Friday evening, 8 May from 6:30- 8 pm and the second on Sunday morning, 10 May from 10-11:30 am. Come to one or both!

💠As we move closer to Winter, it’s a perfect time to release all the busyness of DO-ing and rest into BE-ing in order to shed all that no longer serves. As the days get shorter and cooler, we naturally crave a warm and nourishing cocoon in which to sink into to allow the parasympathetic nervous systems (our rest and digest mode) to come online and perform its healing duties.

💠Join me for this relaxing practice as we set our intentions & reset our bodies, minds and spirits with a gentle Restorative Yoga practice, followed by a Yoga Nidra meditation.

💠Exchange is $35. Space is limited, so be sure to confirm your place today. Please DM me for payment and address details.

💠What to bring/wear:

✨ Feel free to wear your pjs or any clothing you can move and rest comfortably in, whilst staying warm and cozy.
✨Yoga mats, bolsters, blocks, lavender eye pillows, blankets and pillows provided, but feel free to bring your own if you have any favourites.
✨ And don’t forget your water bottle.

💠What is Restorative Yoga?

✨ Restorative Yoga is a movement practice that allows your body and mind to rest and recharge. Unlike more active forms of yoga that focus on strengthening and stretching, Restorative Yoga emphasises rest and stillness. Gentle poses held for extended periods of time encourage the body to let go of tension and find balance and harmony.

✨Restorative Yoga is a completely passive practice that utilises props to support our bodies in all of the poses to aid in complete relaxation. By relaxing our muscles, lowering our heart rate, and allowing our nervous system to slow down, Restorative Yoga helps us to balance our fast-paced lifestyles. As we find stillness in the pose we allow for healing, both physically and mentally, which ultimately supports us in being more focused and effective. Restorative Yoga is accessible to people of all ages and skill-levels.

💠What Is Yoga Nidra?

✨Yoga Nidra literally means "yogic sleep". It is an ancient meditation technique where practitioners enter a deeper state of conscious relaxation, moving awareness from the external world to the internal.

✨Yogic sleep brings us to a state of deep relaxation, verging on sleep, where our senses, intellect, and mind can completely let go and rest. In this dreamless sleep, we are free from the concepts of time, space and reason. When this happens, brain activity reduces and the body goes into a healing state, removing toxins at a cellular level, refreshing the mind, and eliminating emotional baggage from the subconscious.

✨Yoga Nidra allows you to access delta brainwaves, which are responsible for the healing and restoration that happens in your body during deep sleep. Activating delta brainwaves during Yoga Nidra allows your mind and body to rest while you're awake. Yoga Nidra also activates the pineal gland.

✨The pineal gland has been described as the “Seat of the Soul” and is located in the center of the brain. Also known as the third eye, it is a revered tool of mystics and considered to be the organ of supreme universal connection. The third eye chakra is connected to clarity, concentration, imagination and intuition.

I look forward to guiding you in this deeply nourishing practice.

Today on Lush Ground, I'm talking about self care for mothers and all the women out there holding space and nurturing others, which makes all of us mothers in one form or another. If you struggle with self-care and guilt, this episode is for you. Please give it a listen, a follow and a share if this touches your heart.

As mothers, and even just as women, we’re given the message early on that our value is in our sacrifice for others. We are to always be in service to others or risk being perceived as selfish.

Self care of any kind is viewed as self indulgent, so we feel guilty if we allow for any kind of nurturing for ourselves. We hustle so hard for our value, which is inextricably linked to our doing for others, that we completely neglect ourselves and our needs until we become completely burnt out.

I ask you….what good are we to anyone if we’re depleted, exhausted, overwhelmed, or sick? That is some ass-backward thinking! Wouldn’t you rather be so full of nurtured goodness that you’re overflowing with energy and love to give others? Giving from our overflow is infinitely more valuable than giving from our overwhelm and fumes, and far more sustainable!

So, the invitation here is to find some yummy self-care practices you can integrate into your daily life and commit to gifting yourself every single day for your wellbeing. And if anyone tries to make you feel guilty, they can just f**k right off! Find your tribe of support people that will be cheerleaders for you and encourage you to nurture and love yourself into fullness!

If you’re interested in joining me in Sanctuary (in-person or online) for Integrative Well-Being Coaching, please send me a DM or email me at: SanctuaryWithJana@icloud.com. And be sure to check out my brand new website: www.JanaMarie.Love for all my offerings and ways to get in touch.

My coaching style enables you to tap into your own innate wisdom. You already possess all the tools you need to gain mastery of your life, enabling you to walk through any challenge with confidence and thrive in every area of your life.

My job as a coach is to help you identify and clarify your dreams and goals, discover the blocks that prevent you from reaching them, and develop strategies to overcome those blocks to enable you to make and maintain the changes necessary to build your confidence so you can take up space and live your life OUT LOUD.

Get in touch today to schedule a free alignment call to discuss what Integrative Well-Being Coaching can do for you.

You can find the Lush Ground Podcast on YouTube, Spotify, Facebook and Instagram.
