​last week
i thought 
i would burst 
with holiday merriment
going from one
magical holiday gathering
to the next
​ssssoo tired

i heard a voice
from deep within
Picture

this voice
meant business

for the gifts
​of this time
of year are...
loved ones
giving
yummy food
lights
and
festivities
yet

there is
one another gift
of the season
stillness

but 
stillness
takes
an invitation
so amidst
the lights
sugar
gift buying
+
wrapping

please take a moment
today
honor
the depth
within you

set your timer
for even 5 minutes
tuck your phone
away
sit on the floor
lay on your bed
close your eyes

Picture
for in the dark
all things are born
like the womb

in this quiet
see what message
life has for you
to carry forward
into the new year
to sustain the holiness
within you

your to do list
can 
wait
​take 
a 
moment
celebrate
the stillness
it's the holiday gift
to give yourself
Picture

You Got This.
​
Wishing you
peace within
+
stillness
to support
the miracle
of you.

    Mama Megan

    Hi friends,  I write from the heart to tell my life story, and the story of those in my neighborhood called life. Research shows that our children's emotional & mental health is contingent upon us parents being able to tell our life story, or "coherent narrative."  This is my coherent narrative, my life story in the making, with some of what I love in life too. My goal is to share my life in a way that is real, uplifting & positive- sometimes serious, sometimes fun. In my practice, I inspire parents to empowerment through reclaiming our life stories and learning respectful discipline. My work is my offering to our children- our future. Wishing you all a happy family!
