MotherWise A Day of Rest, Ritual & Reconnection

Motherhood can easily become a lonely journey with the pressures of having to do it all and still thrive. Mothers used to work together in synergy, supported and connected. Today, we do things differently, for better or worse, but often at the detriment of our mental and physical health. As a naturopath and doula, I have served women and mothers for more than 15+ years on the quest to find a new balance during our life transitions and during the motherhood phase of life, which is particularly demanding.

As a mother of four, I know deeply how the demands for nurturing, managing, and always being available can dismantle all good intentions we had for our self-care. Through my personal and clinical experience, I have worked on (and tweaked) many ways to prevent and recover from feeling depleted, burnt out, and burdened by the demands of motherhood.

This day is my offering to mothers, which gives us a place to reconnect with ourselves, each other, and take a pause to go deeper into our own inner wisdom, clarify our needs for well-being, and articulate the steps we need to take to do motherhood with more balance and grace.
