Mind Body Moms

A Maternal Wellness Group that Nurtures Mind, Body & Spirit

 

“Alone we can do so little. Together we can do so much.” – Helen Keller

All moms are welcome! All feelings are welcome. All thoughts are welcome. All parts are welcome.

The moms in this group come from diverse cultural & ethnic backgrounds. Most moms in our circle have elementary schoolers, middle schoolers, high schoolers and/or college students. Some have very young children, and some are empty nesters – whose young adult children are off on their own already. We all learn from each other and support each other on this incredibly rich, rewarding and often challenging journey of motherhood. Some of us are working moms, some are full time moms. All of us love our kids and we are dedicated to finding ways to carve out time for ourselves and fill our own cups, so we have more of ourselves to give!

Women have been gathering together to connect in circles across the ages. Why? Because it helps us to connect. As social mammals, we need each other to thrive in this world. And there is never a time that our connection with other women is more needed than when we become mothers.

Our integrative maternal wellness groups offer evidence-based tools to promote wellbeing. Neuroscience research has demonstrated the powerful benefits of mindfulness meditation, including its ability to reduce stress, improve mood, boost focus and attention, and treat chronic conditions such as anxiety and chronic pain. Research also shows that social-emotional support is a central factor in maternal health and wellness.

Many moms come to our groups seeking a safe space to connect with like-minded women who value the cultivation of meaningful connections, living a balanced life, and helping children grow into compassionate, resilient adults. And while it is challenging to carve out time for ourselves as mothers, we must invest IN ourselves to be able to give freely OF ourselves.

Mind Body Moms Group Cancellation Policy

OUR GROUP CANCELLATION POLICY: A 100% refund (less service fees) is offered up until the start date of the group. No refunds will be offered on or after the start date.

DISCONTINUATION OF THE GROUP AFTER THE GROUP HAS BEGUN:

When a participant discontinues a group after the session has begun, then MBM will need to:
  • Charge for the session
  • Remove the participant’s email address from the email chain until payment has been made

To avoid being charged for the session, please notify the facilitator before the group begins that you will not be able to join the group.

The only exception to this rule is if there is something on our end – such as a health hazard in the building – which prevents a participant from attending the group. In this case, the participant can still participate in the group via email, and payment will be negotiated depending on the situation.
PLEASE NOTE: All activities, (including groups, workshops and retreats) offered by Mind Body Moms are non-healthcare activities, and therefore no healthcare records will be generated.
