Taking Root, Fort Smith, AR (2026)

Hey, did you know you can find me virtually?🌲

One of the things I love most about Taking Root Education is finding ways to make nature connection, mindfulness, and meaningful moments of pause more accessible.

And that doesn’t always mean joining an in person class, attending a workshop, or finding time in an already full schedule.

Sometimes, you just need a little guidance to help you slow down, take a breath, reconnect with your body, or notice the nature that’s already around you.

That’s why I created my Virtual Nature Classroom on Patreon!

Think of it as a little sit spot of Taking Root you can visit on your own time, wherever you are.

Inside, you’ll find guided meditations, breathwork, nature-based practices, mindful movement, seasonal rituals, reflections, and opportunities to connect with a community of others exploring these practices, too.

Whether you have five minutes between responsibilities or want to create a longer seasonal ritual for yourself, there’s space to begin where you are.

Connection to ourselves, each other, and nature doesn’t have to happen in one place or in one particular way. 🌱

✨ Come explore your Virtual Nature Classroom:

Earth Element 🌲 A Self-Guided Experience

It’s the end of August.

Back-to-school energy is in the air. The mornings and nights are starting to feel a little colder and crisper. A few leaves on the Red Maples and the Staghorn Sumac have already started to turn, offering little reminders that fall is coming. 🍂

This seasonal shift has me thinking about the Earth Element. In Chinese medicine, late summer is connected with Earth.

So I wanted to share this self-guided experience with you.

🌲A 45-minute practice exploring the Earth Element through gentle movement, breathwork, reflection, and a guided nature audio walk you can take on your own time.

🌲Earth is here to support you, ground you, and remind you that you belong.

As the season begins to shift, this is your invitation to slow down, root in, and reconnect with yourself and the Earth beneath you. It is always there to support you.

$22 Earth Element Self-Guided Experience

Come meet me virtually on your mat and on the trail. 🥾

Grief and Growth

I have been experiencing grief lately.

Grief for the baby loss back in May.

Grief of a deep friendship I once had.

And I am growing.

As I am starting to grow and expand even more these moments of grief and contraction come crashing in. The dualities of life. Something Ive been talking about in class this week.

The body remembers. The body remembers the trauma the sadness the anger - all of it.

Something my dear friend shared to me when I was deep in my grief was how after we experience grief we experience a whole new level of love than we could have ever imagine.

I know this to be true. I feel this in my body.

My moments of growth in my personal life, business, relationships, etc are able to grow this strongly, this intentional, this much love and passion behind it because I did experience the grief.

My grief is decomposing to be able to grow.

Close your eyes if it feels comfortable and literally picture that. Picture your “grief” on the forest floor, being tangled up, wrapped up like a big hug by mother nature- the mushrooms, earthworms, fungi, bacteria, breaking it down to become more nutrients in the earth. Nutrients for growth.

In Chinese medicine Fall is associated with the element mental. And associated with grief. So no surprise as I start to feel the shifting of the seasons I am experiencing waves of grief.

Mindfulness Practice for you:

Try the above decomposing grief visualization.

Walking guided audio meditation for you if you are experiencing and grief in your life right now. (Available on substack-kaitlintakingroot)

I will be offering a live workshop focusing on Falls Equinox, weaving in Chinese medicine and focusing on preparing our bodies for rest.

We are allowed to decompose in order to grow. 🌱
