The Missing Piece: The Brain, Body, and Beyond
Being a mom means you’re always “on.” You’re managing schedules, solving problems, supporting everyone else - and somehow, your own needs end up at the bottom of the list (again).
You know taking care of yourself matters… but actually making time for it? That’s the hard part.
But the truth is your regulation matters, too. Your nervous system, your energy, your health - these are not extras. They’re foundational.
True support begins with you, because when you feel good, everything else feels more manageable. Your ability to handle the hard moments shifts, and you’re able to show up as you want to.
This event - co-sponsored by The Whole Child Collective and NeuroSpice Girls - is your permission to pause.
We’ll begin with a grounding group sound healing session to help your body settle and reset. Then, a panel of wellness professionals will share accessible, body-based strategies you can incorporate into daily life to support your own regulation, gut health, circulation, mood, and overall well-being.
Afterward, you’ll have time to explore different wellness experiences and connect with the panelists one-on-one.
Plus, enjoy delicious bites from local eateries and women-owned small businesses - because you deserve to be taken care of, too.
