It’s been a quiet few months on here, and I wanted to take a moment to share what’s been happening behind the scenes.
This spring and summer have been a season of deep reflection, simplification, and intentional change for our family. We made the big decision to move from our beloved rural property to a smaller, more manageable home and yard, more centrally located and better suited for this chapter of life. With that move came a lot of letting go - including stepping away from my independent massage practice to reclaim our weekends and spend more time together as a family.
Between stewarding an acre of land, running a small herb farm, working multiple jobs, raising our sweet Bodhi, and Joshua being in school full-time at OSU, we were stretched far too thin. The endless to-do lists and weekends filled with additional labor - rather than rest, were wearing us down.
So, we’re choosing differently.
We’re choosing ease.
We’re choosing presence.
We’re choosing to build a rhythm that nurtures our relationship with God, each other, our son and our own wellbeing.
And from that space, my work is shifting too - becoming more intentional, more sustainable, and more aligned.
What this means for Bodhi Mama Botanicals:
I’ve harvested herbs from our former garden to sustain us through this coming year.
We still have space to grow our herbs, just on a smaller scale. And I remain committed to offering you high-quality, farm-to-bottle, organic botanicals.
My work will now focus entirely on fertility, pregnancy, postpartum, and women’s health.
This includes:
💆🏻♀️ Mobile prenatal + postpartum massage for Linn and Benton counties
🤰🏽 Fertility, Pregnancy and Postpartum herbal consults and products
🌸 Doula & Postpartum care rooted in ancient wisdom, nourishment and rest
This is the work that fills me up. That feels most aligned. That serves the seasons of life I’m most called to walk with others through.
Thank you for your patience during this quiet season and for being here as I find my way back, just a little slower and softer this time. 💚
