Mother Verde Wellness Weekly: Why You Don’t Need To Start Fresh Right Now

Good afternoon...This Week We’re Talking About Mindset. Good afternoon, If the start of this year feels heavy instead of energizing, you’re not imagining it... and you’re not doing anything wrong. Even if you’re not watching the news, the weight of what’s happening in the world still reaches your body. Add winter, motherhood, work, emotional labor, and the constant pressure to “get it together,” and it makes sense that many of us feel tired, resistant, or quietly overwhelmed. There’s still so...

Checking in…how are you doing?It's almost the new year!This Week We’re Talking About Stress Reduction The days after the holidays can feel tender. We’re full of cheese and emotions. We don’t know what day it is. Decorations start to come down, routines are still a little wacky, and there’s a mix of joy; gratitude, exhaustion, and emotion sitting together. I notice it most in the body… slower mornings, heavier shoulders, a real need for quiet. I am truly sleepy and lazy right now. I’m making...

Happy Holidays!This Week We’re Talking About Time Management This time of year moves differently.Days are shorter. Routines loosen. School pauses. Mornings stretch and feel less predictable. There’s a pull to slow down… even as life keeps asking for attention. Many women are holding a lot right now. The end of a full year. The emotional weight in the world. Grief sitting quietly alongside the holidays. A longing for light, connection, and moments that feel steady. It’s time to support...

Good Afternoon.This Week We’re Talking About Nutrition and Energy As Christmas approaches, life naturally becomes fuller. Routines loosen, mental load increases, and even meaningful moments take more energy to hold. It’s common to feel more tired than usual, even with enough sleep. If you’re waking up drained or relying on caffeine, you’re not alone. This season asks a lot, and fatigue is often the body’s way of asking for steadier support, not more effort. Energy isn’t built by sleep alone....

Good afternoon. This week we’re talking about mindset. And guilt. I feel a little guilty that I dropped the ball on our newsletter last week, sorry! We are juggling so much, and many good exciting things. Yesterday I finally got some (guilt-free) rest. On Saturday we had our local holiday market and we sold some homemade skincare, marshmallows, hot tea, chocolates, and art made by my daughters. It was fun! But also, a lot of work. This time of year, the mental & physical load is immense. My...

Good afternoon!This Week We’re Talking About Time Management... But not in the usual productivity-hustle way. We’re talking about the deeper truth behind “I don’t have time,” because I hear this every single week from women, and I feel it in my own life too. Most of us aren’t running out of hours. We’re running out of bandwidth. We’re running on a system that wasn’t designed with mothers’ wellbeing in mind, while trying to hold a household, careers, kids, appointments, meals, and our own...

Good afternoon...This Week We’re Talking About Nutrition & Energy. Because honestly... I don’t know a single mom who isn’t tired. A lot of us think we’re exhausted because of work, the kids, the mental load, the chaos, and yes, that’s part of it. But so much of our daily fatigue is actually tied to the way we’re eating, hydrating, and the foods we reach for when we’re stressed, and the habits we’ve normalized just to get through the day. We've also lost communal eating in our culture, and...

Good afternoon, This week we are talking about mindset and more specifically, how to stop your negative self-talk from running the show. The voice inside your head: is it cruel or is it kind? We all have that voice inside our head that narrates our day like an overcritical coach. It tells us we should be doing more, that we messed up again, that we’re falling behind. But the truth is, that voice isn’t really you. It’s an old protector, one that needs retraining, not obedience. In this week’s...

Good afternoon, Do you ever feel like you’re more in the digital world than the real world? This week I am talking about stress reduction and our connection to technology. This last Halloween weekend I went trick or treating with my daughter, who went as a pterosaur, and I as Trinity from the Matrix. I like Trinity because she’s super strong, devoted & faithful, cool AF, and conscious. She’s a badass. She is also a fighter against this simulation humans are put in. Sometimes it feels like we...

Good afternoon...This Week We’re Talking About Time Management. Do you ever feel like the week just runs you? You wake up Monday already behind, the house feels like a mess, and your brain’s juggling fifteen tabs that never close. How do you anchor down? I've lived in survival mode a big chunk of my life. I am freedom loving too. Developing routines and simplicity has taken a lot of work because of my wiring from childhood, but structure helps us feel safe, and I've found rhythms & rituals...
