Not all classrooms have four walls 🐮

Hands-on learning from the classroom to the farm!

Rest has never looked the same everywhere.

Farmers rest after harvest.
Winter cultures slow when the land sleeps.
Some communities rest together.
Others in solitude.

Rest has always been contextual.

The idea that rest should look one way, quiet, still or passive is a modern story. And it doesn’t work for most nervous systems.

Different seasons of life require different kinds of rest.
What restores you in one chapter may not in the next.

Sometimes we need sleep.
Sometimes connection.
Sometimes movement, creativity, or emotional release.

If rest hasn’t been helping lately, it might not be a lack of effort but a mismatch of type.

I shared more on this in last January's blog on the 7 types of rest.

NHCS Community Spotlight 🤍

We’re grateful to partner with New Humble Community School to provide in-school counselling and group mental health support for students in our rural community.

This partnership brings trauma-informed, nervous-system-aware care directly into the school setting, reducing barriers and meeting kids where they already are.

Each year, we offer Harvesting Resilience groups alongside additional workshops for students, families, and educators, supporting emotional regulation, confidence, and relational skills in ways that are safe, embodied, and age-appropriate.

Rural access to mental health care matters. Community-rooted, preventative support makes a difference.

We’re thankful to NHCS for trusting us with this work and prioritizing student well-being.

✨ We’re excited to share an important milestone ✨

As of January 1, Nurtured Minds Wellness and Therapy Services is now incorporated and operating under our new legal name:

Nurtured Minds Wellness Group Inc.

While our name has evolved, our work remains the same. We are a local team of holistically-informed, science-backed, heart-led therapists supporting individuals, families, and organizations across Leduc County and surrounding communities. We offer therapy, nature-based retreats and workshops/ education for teams.

Incorporation reflects our continued growth, accountability, and long-term commitment to accessible, ethical, and community-rooted mental health care.

As the year closes, here’s your reminder: you don’t need to “be a whole new person” by tomorrow.

You’re already someone worth growing with, not away from.

If past resolutions felt like self-pressure, self-fixing, or silent failure- it’s not because you lacked discipline.
It’s because the container was rigid.

A Word of the Year is different:
✨ No starting line you can “miss”
✨ No perfection to maintain
✨ Just a steady intention you can return to all year long

Our therapists use this practice because it works with the nervous system- not against it.

It supports identity, embodiment, and change without burnout.

If you want 2026 to feel lived, not performed- we’d love to walk alongside you.

Whether tonight is loud, quiet, reflective, or full of snacks- we’re wishing you a gentle landing into 2026 💛
