Well, this feels mildly uncomfortable to post. 😂

But here we are.

A little reminder that what you see here is only a tiny slice of my life, and despite spending a lot of time talking about presence, nature connection, slowing down and reclaiming our attention, I am very much still practicing all of those things myself.

Some seasons I’m better at it than others.

Anyway, your turn. What’s one of your recent flops? I promise you’re in good company. 👇

I’m doing a digital detox this September, and I’d love some company. 🌿

I love this time of year. There’s something about September that feels like a fresh start. But I also know how quickly fall can go from that fresh-start feeling to a completely packed calendar, and how easy it is to end up spending more and more of our downtime staring at a screen because it feels like the easiest way to relax.

So I’m putting something different on my calendar before all of that gets going.

September Sundays in Nature is a Digital Detox + Forest Bathing Series happening over four Sunday mornings in green spaces around St. Louis.

We’ll put our phones away for a while, slow down through guided Forest Bathing & Nature Therapy, spend time wandering and noticing what’s around us, share forest tea, and connect with a really lovely community of people who are choosing to spend some of their Sunday morning this way too.

And when I say “digital detox,” I don’t mean deleting every app or giving up your phone for a month. This is meant to meet you wherever you are. We’ll simply experiment with creating a little more space between ourselves and our screens and giving more of our attention to the life happening around us.

I need this too, which is a big part of why I’m hosting it.

And because I know September can already be busy, you can join us for 2 Sundays or all 4.

If this sounds like something you need too, comment SUNDAYS or message me and I’ll send you all the details. 💚

I’m doing a digital detox this September, and I’d really love for you to join me. 🌿

I know what happens when fall gets moving. The calendar fills up, there’s more to manage, and somehow the easiest way to “take a break” becomes picking up my phone and consuming even more information.

So I’m putting something different on the calendar before I get to that point.

September Sundays in Nature is a Digital Detox + Forest Bathing Series happening over four Sunday mornings around St. Louis. We’ll put our phones away, slow down with guided Forest & Nature Therapy, drink forest tea, and spend time in real-life community with other people who want more of this too.

And the digital detox part isn’t rigid. No deleting every app or disappearing from the internet for a month. We’ll experiment with our habits between sessions and practice giving more of our attention back to the life happening around us.

I need this too, and I’m really looking forward to practicing it together.

You can join us for 2 Sundays or all 4.

Most of us know we spend too much time on our phones. What we talk about less is what all that time connected to a screen can displace: movement, time outside, sleep, face-to-face connection, and the kind of attention that isn’t constantly being interrupted.

We reach for our phones when we’re tired because scrolling feels like rest. But more input isn’t always what an overloaded brain needs.

One of the simplest things we can do is spend more time outside and less time consuming information. Look farther away. Let your attention move at a different pace. Walk. Sit under a tree. Notice what’s happening around you. Spend time with other people without a phone between you.

That’s the kind of digital detox I’m interested in. Not disappearing off-grid or swearing off technology, but regularly practicing putting it down long enough to remember what it feels like to be fully where you are.

And yes, lying under a tree absolutely counts. 🌳

If you want to practice this with me, comment SUNDAYS and I’ll send you the details for September Sundays in Nature.

Just checking that you’ve made plans with an actual human lately instead of saying “we should get together sometime.” 😬

Because I know how easy it is to mean it… and then another month goes by.

Join me in the forest this September for forest tea, community connection, a little digital detox, and some actual plans with actual humans. 🌿

Just checking that you remember sitting under a tree counts as doing something. 🌳

No steps to track or destination to reach. No need to make your time outside productive.

You can just sit there for a while and notice what happens.

Share this reminder with someone who needs it. 💚

Just checking that you’ve been outside today for a reason other than getting to your car. 🌿

And if not, consider this your reminder. Even five minutes counts. Go see what’s happening out there.

My biggest mission with Urban Forest Therapy is helping people realize that nature doesn’t have to be a destination.

You don’t need a cabin in the woods, a national park, a free weekend or even a whole afternoon.

You can build a relationship with the natural world right where you live.

And ✨BUILD✨ is the key part here.

Because knowing that being outside is good for us is one thing.

Actually creating a rhythm of getting outside, putting down the phone and paying attention is another.

That’s why I’m committing to spending my September Sundays in Nature.

Four Sunday mornings, right here in St. Louis I’ll be hosting a Guided Forest Bathing + Digital Detox series for anyone who feels called to step into the next season intentionally and with presence.

Here’s your reason to put it on the calendar, get outside and practice slowing down alongside other people who want more of this in their lives, too.

My hope isn’t that nature becomes one more thing you have to remember to “do for yourself.”

It’s that, with a little practice and a little community, reaching for the outdoors starts to become part of how you live.

You don’t have to go off-grid to get back outside. 🌿

Did you know I offer 1:1 nature-based wellness coaching? 🌿

These sessions are for people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, burned out, or like they’ve lost connection with themselves somewhere along the way.

We meet outside. Sometimes we walk, sometimes we sit, sometimes we just slow down enough to finally hear what’s been getting drowned out by the pace of everyday life.

This isn’t talk therapy. It’s coaching designed to help you start taking the actions that will help you make real changes in your life. Together we look at what’s no longer working, what you want more of, and the patterns, habits, or circumstances keeping you where you are. From there, we build practical, supportive steps toward meaningful progress.

A lot of the people I work with are navigating stress, burnout, health challenges, life transitions, people pleasing, exhaustion, or the feeling that they’ve spent so much time taking care of everyone else that they don’t know what they need anymore.

Nature has a way of helping people exhale a little. Things often become clearer outside.

If that kind of support feels like something you’ve been needing lately, my 1:1 sessions are open. 💚 DM or comment and I’ll send you more information!
