BIRTH PEACE

03/01/2024

Sometimes, life comes at you fast (hi, Ferris Bueller). Other times, we move into seasons of slowness. 
Postpartum is a season of slowness... of doing ~less~..and it's really, really hard to do. 
I planned better for my postpartum experience this time around, but even with more deliberate planning, and having a spouse who was able to take more time off to support this slowness and restful period, I still got swept back up into the go-go-go lifestyle. It happens! To all of us. Our world is a beautiful, messy and constantly moving place with a strong gravitational pull. 

For a few weeks, I've been feeling the effects of trying to move too fast and not being able to keep up: a sensation of being untethered, ungrounded. floating around, unable to find my center and my reason for the work that I do. After a difficult therapy session of realizing this and putting the feeling into words, I decided (with the help of many in my circle) that I need to prioritize continued slowness in this season. I'm not magically "done with postpartum" - not even close. My sweet baby is ~still~ a baby (albeit a big one)! I need to prioritize being in my cocoon still. This is what I need, what my family needs in this moment.
So: I'm slowing down. I'm moving back towards grounding practices. I'm finding my breath. ....and I'm pausing my regular classes - for now. I'll be around with events popping up here and there, but for now, I will be slow.
Wishing you all groundedness and peace.

Music & Yoga Workshop for Baby and Parent!
Two workshop dates to choose from:
Feb 26 at 11:30 am | Feb 27 at 11:30 am
Join us for a special and fun workshop that will give new parents practical tools to build connection with their baby! We will play with both music and movement in this workshop -- as they both help to enrich Baby's growth and development. Not only will you walk away from this class with ideas for engaging Baby at whatever stage they are in, but you will also have built upon the innate connection between baby and parent. Plus, meet other new parents who are learning right alongside you.
Come get musical and move with us!
