A month since introducing Roman’s sitting journey, here is how it’s going!

Roman is getting stronger each week and he has started sitting for a few seconds on his own.

We were about to end today’s session but did a little more on the sofa because the patch of sunlight caught his attention. Roman practices sitting and other activities with the whole family between sessions that help build his core strength and endurance. The key has been understanding Roman’s cues for when we can push through a bit more and when we rest. We also pay attention to what his interests are and that is our focus, to keep him engaged and wanting to participate in the play activities.

Therapy doesn’t have to be a chore. In fact, motor learning and strength training is best when there is connection and play involved!

Around age 2 is when we start to see kids use their strength, balance, and coordination to do all three. So proud of Anthony! We have been working hard to coordinate this explosive jump up and off the step!

Playing in a squat requires a lot of coordination between different muscle groups and the flexibility to get into the position.

Being able to play in a squat happens around the time kids learn to go up and down stairs, just around the 1.5-2 year mark.

Each child develops at their own pace. Milestones help guide us in figuring out if a child needs help moving towards the next activity while also ensuring their bones, joints, and muscles develop in the best alignment.

Here we are working on body awareness with vestibular and functional play so that squatting feels more natural and doable!

End of year gratitude for my mental health. Yoga helped me get back to myself a few times.

Please note, I am not a mental health professional. I share my experience to help others in their struggles because it is through others sharing their experience that helped me get help for myself and not feel ashamed to do so.

I was in a deep depression that started in late 2022 and I didn’t get professional help until a year later. I had an amazing talk therapist and was in therapy for over a year and she helped me get to where I am now and I am forever grateful to her.

But before that, I was able to find help with movement and yoga.

Keep going. Be kind. Be you. 💗✨

It’s practicing independence during rapid changes in the brain and body while guiding movement towards the best developmental alignment.

It’s teaching a child to be confident, safe, and independent while also allowing their body to develop strong joints and muscles, optimal alignment, and confidence.

It is movement that will carry them beyond childhood.

So proud of Alfonso! Look at his willingness to step back on these stepping stones! And that squat! 💪

Alfonso has come such a long way since we met. He’s going up and down steps and more! Sound on 🔊 🤗

So much to be thankful for as we welcome in the last month of the year. I hope everyone had glimmers of joy, rest, and presence this Thanksgiving weekend.

I am grateful for this life I get to live, doing what I love. Thanks to all the families that choose me to help in their child’s physical health and mobility. Also grateful to parents who choose me to help in their own health journey 🧡🍁

Here are some photos of Thanksgiving holiday break. I wish I took more pics the past few days… enjoying some time with family, cooking, tending to plants, celebrating godparents and their 50 year wedding anniversary, and my favorite… a few slow mornings and outside fun.

Let’s finish this year with continued gratitude 💗

Brian has had some great progress! Lots of fun and hard work and he is now able to play on all fours and sit on different surfaces without constant support. Hooray!

Side stepping (cruising) and hand hold assisted steps are the mini-milestones toward independent standing mobility. Enzo has come so far and we’re excited to share today’s session. Great steps Enzo and great job family for practicing everyday!

Video to follow in the future of what we have been practicing over the last few months.

Anyone else enjoy seeing new leaves form and unravel? Well, enjoy!

Every morning open up the blinds and let some sunshine in. This one has been happy and has made its second leaf since being in my home. I won this beauty from 🤗💗.

September is Su***de Prevention Awareness month. It’s ok to not be ok. Learning to lean in and be curious about what you are feeling, where you are feeling it, and pausing to nurture yourself instead of beating yourself up is a first step. You’re never alone and there is hope for you. If you’re struggling and feel like an alien in your own body and feel alone, know that your right now is not forever. Lean in. Let’s celebrate being curious instead of suppressing and denying what we feel.

You’re never alone. Here are some of my favorite resources.

7 A moment of joy. I’m basking in the feeling of presence. Grateful to be able to feel connected to my son, my husband taking the picture, the strength in my body to give a piggy back ride, the presence of mind, the alignment of my heart and soul. Being able to feel the sun on my skin, the gentle breeze, the connection of mind, body, and soul. Everything I wished for when I was in the dark for so long.
