Motherhood is the best, but let’s be honest—it’s tough! Sleepless nights, the invisible mental load, and don’t even get me started on the laundry. It can all feel like too much.
What if you had a safe space to connect with other moms who totally understand? A place to share your experiences, learn practical tools to manage anxiety and overwhelm, and even get your body moving?
Join Kristen Simons, a licensed mental health therapist, perinatal yoga teacher, and mom of two, for a unique 6-week in-person group designed to support you through this incredible transition called motherhood. Drawing on her professional expertise and personal experience, Kristen creates a welcoming space for connection, reflection, and gentle movement.
This group is for you if:
You’re 4 weeks to 18 months postpartum.
You’re a first time mom or mom of multiples
You’re feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or disconnected, and wondering what feelings are “normal” during this stage.
You’re feeling great but you’re ready to prioritize your well-being and connect with other moms navigating this season of life.
You have questions about your postpartum body or want guidance on safely reintroducing movement into your busy life.
We cover topics like:
Gentle yoga and grounding practices to support your nervous system
Reconnecting with your body and sense of self
Space to process the emotional realities of motherhood
Shared support around relationships, boundaries, and returning to work
Connection, validation, and relief in knowing you’re not alone
Guest experts join 3 select weeks to complement the group’s shared wisdom and provide insight on topics such as feeding your baby, postpartum nutrition, and pelvic floor health.
While we adore your babies, this group is designed to be a moms-only space. We encourage you to attend without your little one, as our intention is to offer you a protected space in your week that is just for you. Caring for yourself is a meaningful part of caring for your baby. I ask that you commit to all 6 weeks even if you are unable to attend all of them, as this supports group trust and cohesion.
Cost: $180 with 2 sliding scale spots
