🌌 Land of the Living Skies. 🥹 🙏🏽

We drove outside the city tonight to watch the majestic sky dance and remind us that this universe we live in so very beautiful. I was so grateful and likely annoyed my family with 85 sky analogies to life/mental health.

Tonight, I’m reminded again of how colourful life is and if you’re reading this Mother Nature is speaking to us tonight- telling us to slow down and enjoy a playful dance or two ourselves. She reminds us to light up our own paths and make magical moves.

You may have seen today’s U.S. announcements about autism. We want to clear up a few points for families in Canada:
❌ Myth: Tylenol in pregnancy causes autism
✅ Fact: Research does not support this as a proven cause. Studies have shown only a correlation - NOT causation. Medical organizations in Canada do not recognize acetaminophen as a cause of autism.
❌ Myth: Leucovorin is a treatment for autism
✅ Fact: Leucovorin may support language development in a very small subgroup of children with a rare condition (cerebral folate deficiency). More research is needed to determine its safety and efficacy within the Canadian healthcare context. It is not a recognized or approved treatment for autism overall.
❌ Myth: Vaccines cause autism
✅ Fact: Extensive research has found no link between vaccines and autism. Vaccines are safe, effective, and critical for protecting children’s health.

In Canada, our health policies and medical guidance are based on the best available science. Autism is complex, and there is no single known cause or cure. What we do know is that early, individualized, evidence-based support makes the greatest difference in a child’s development. ♾️
If you have questions about autism services, assessments, or supports, please reach out. We’re here to help. 💙

☀️ 🌳 KOREMBI 🌳 ☀️ is a word I recently learned that comes from the Japanese language/culture. The word korembi (木漏れ日) is a compound of 木 (ko, “tree”) and 漏れ日 (morebi, “leaking sunlight” or “sunlight filtering through”).

One thing about me is that I always find ways to connect nature to themes of interconnectedness, hope, mindfulness, and the broader aspects of life. Nature has a way of symbolizing these deeper truths, making it a perfect reflection of the way we experience and grow through life’s ups and downs.

The light filtering through the trees is ever-present, always shifting, and shining in unique ways at different times. The sun doesn’t stay in one spot—it moves, illuminating parts of the forest that may have once been cloaked in shadow.

The dance between light and shadow reminds us that our journeys are full of ebbs and flows—never quite linear, but always evolving. At times, we may find ourselves lost in moments of doubt or uncertainty, yet these periods are integral to our growth. Just as a forest thrives with both light and shade, our challenges and triumphs work in tandem to build resilience and deepen our understanding. The light will always return, and it’s through the contrast with the shadows that we come to truly appreciate the clarity it brings.
