Setting our rhythm for more peace, less overwhelm
|
Hi Reader, I’ve basically been in an overwhelmed haze all summer. Then two things happened: We went camping and I got a reset and we picked up our home school supplies and curriculum. I was pushed into the rhythm of the school year. And I so desperately needed it! I’m finally starting to feel a sense of normalcy. On Wednesday, I sat down and planned our daily rhythms (one for at home days and one for in-school days – weekends, well, they are left to fate!). I started working on our quarterly plans, my monthly plan and the week. I even made a September meal plan. Yeah, Wednesday was a good day! And it felt good. I have more to do, but I finally feel less untethered. I have more purpose, I am reminded of my values, and I feel more at ease than I have in months. As I was doing this, I was like, everyone needs this feeling. Everyone needs a rhythm, a flow, a plan. It just makes everything soooo much easier. So, I decided to put my training Rhythm & Flow out here for $9 (was $37). It is what I used to set our rhythm, how I plan our weeks, months, and quarters. Since Wednesday, I’ve gotten more done. I’m not asking “what’s next?” in our days (something I detest). In a few days, the kids will have a feel for it and transitions will be a little easier (hopefully that means fewer discussions over putting on shoes and brushing teeth!). I’ve never priced anything this low. I’ll likely keep it at this price for a while, so no urgency in getting it how if it’s not for you right now. I will be doing a live “get your rhythm and plan your quarter” workshop on the 11th (details coming soon! And a replay will be available). So, if you enroll before then, you’ll have access. I’m also recording a super easy meal planning / grocery simplifier video in the next few days that I’ll add to it as soon as it’s done – no promises on dates yet!). Anyway, it’s a great little workshop. Takes less than a half an hour to watch the videos. A little longer to set your rhythm and plan your quarter. You can find it here. PS I'm also offering my membership for $19 a month (which I don't do very often) as the upsell on Rhythm & Flow. You'll pay $9 today and $19 each month you stay enrolled. So, if you're not all that interested in Rhythm & Flow, but have considered Peaceful Mamas or Breath to Bloom (or any of the Raising Slow products), this is a great time to get it! |

Hi Reader, A few weeks ago, I wrote about my annual fall effort to simplify, my general failure at doing so this time of year, and the inevitable near panic attack I have as the season unfolds. It gets busy this time of year for most of us. Our schools expect more, our kids expect more (costumes! gifts! parties!), we expect more of ourselves (I mean, I am decorating for no less than 5 holidays and a birthday in the next few months). I start out with the absolute best intentions. "This year I...
Hello dear mama, Thank you for being here with me on this motherhood journey. Raising Slow has always been a way for me to work through my own generational patterns, bad habits, lack of presence and patience. Originally, It was my sole intention was to write. Just get it all down, hit publish, and hold myself accountable. And, it worked. Writing out my worries and concerns, telling you the mistakes I made and how I felt, committing to what I wanted to be as a mom (the actions, more often than...
Hi Reader, Yesterday was Rosh Hashanah (or the Jewish New Year). Shana Tova if you celebrated. I love Rosh Hashanah, and any other reason besides January 1 to have a new beginning. A reminder that no matter where we are, what we are doing, we have a chance to start fresh. As a mama, this feels important almost daily. The permission to reset, reevaluate and potentially repair every day, the regular readjustments to the seasons and our little ones' needs, and our own physical and emotional...
