Summer
|
Hi Reader, What a gorgeous spring we have had; the return of leaves and the blossoming of flowers and life paired with bright blue skies has really grounded me this season (and also here's to the coming rain!). I hope you are finding moments of joy and calm, or just general mindfulness, when outside. Taking time to notice the world around you and how you respond to the changing environment is such a key to an embodiment and wellness practice; even just 3 breaths of this kind of connection to the present moment can make a difference. As we approach summer, all of our schedules change and I wanted to share some summer plans/announcements here at Erin McCabe Wellness: 1.) If you haven't checked it out yet, take a peek at the updated website, big thanks to my assistant, Sarah Berkey of Sunnyside Printing! 2.) The biggest news for me and my family is that I'm pregnant!! We are expecting our 2nd little one in early November so I'm riding the feel good energy of the 2nd trimester this summer before my practice and body change too much! Below is my big offering for the summer and I hope to have some smaller offerings and a low key community gathering in the fall - stay tuned! 3.) My big endeavor this summer (while I'm in the most energized part of my pregnancy) is to offer a summer mentorship program called Embody U, which is an offering that is geared towards other professionals, but is made up of 3 of my on demand courses that are great for anyone and everyone and each has a free preview. There is a FREE info call next Tuesday, June 11th at 2pm on Zoom for anyone who wants to join and find out more! 4.) Finally, I'm always wanting to offer free resources for accessibility. I recently made this 15' ABC's video, take a peek and test your foundational skills of alignment, breathing and core control. It goes along with this free resource. In closing, I'll leave you with some really powerful podcast episodes from Kelly Corrigan who just did a 10 part series on wellness and these were some of my favorite: On Depression (the audio quality was poor midway through but it improved and the content was so worth making it through!) Be in touch with feedback, questions, and requests. Here's to summer energy while making sure to take time to rest and play! Erin |

Hello December, a month that brings us to the year's end... The past month as a new family of 4 has been so full! After being humbled the first week and realizing how basic and slow I had to start my recovery, I’m using my own reminders of starting small. I've been returning to movement and breath basics through: ABCs (alignment, breathing and core connection) gentle rehab and recovery stretches rolling to release tension that builds up from feeding and holding our cute baby and mindful rest...
Hello, here we are in November! It is with a full heart that I share big joy and love right alongside grief and surrendering to life as it is. We welcomed Liam Girard to the world on Saturday November 9th at 12:11am. Our delivery ended in a different way than I hoped and was extremely difficult on my body. So now, I’m really practicing slowing down, accepting help and generally focusing on healing in these early day and weeks. My heart is full as my body and psyche are starting the road...
Hi Reader, Time seems to be flying by and I have finished with my final week of work with clients!! I will tidy up some admin tasks next week, get my office ready for subletting and fully transition into maternity leave as we wait for our baby to arrive! So this is just see you later I come out of newborn hibernation. In the meantime, Sarah will be taking the reigns to stay in touch monthly with short blurbs from me so we can stay connected. I'll be sure to share the exciting news of our...
