I created the Simply Well Retreat after years of watching capable, caring women burn out before they even realized it was happening.

I see you.

I know what you’re carrying.
You’ve been moving through your days with a full calendar, a full mind, and very little space to actually land.

From the outside, it still looks fine.
You’re showing up.
You’re keeping things moving.
You’re doing what needs to be done.

But I could see it coming.

Not because anyone said it out loud, but because the energy was already shifting.
Less ease.
More strain.
A nervous system working overtime just to keep up.

You tell yourself, “This is just a busy season.”
“I’ll rest when things slow down.”
“I can handle this.”

But underneath that? You’re tired in a way that sleep hasn’t been fixing.
Quietly depleted.
Always on.
Already borrowing from tomorrow’s energy.

I know because I was there too.
Living a full, meaningful life while slowly losing touch with my own rhythm because there was never enough space to honor it.

That’s why I created the Simply Well Retreat.

Not another wellness experience that adds more to your plate.
Not another weekend that asks you to perform rest.
Something different.

Inside, you get:

→ Space to truly rest, so your nervous system can soften before burnout hits
→ Seasonal Ayurvedic care, which means no more pushing your body through rhythms it’s not designed for
→ Gentle practices, nourishment, and community, even if stepping away feels hard

✨ This isn’t about waiting until you’re depleted. It’s about listening sooner.

This retreat is for you if you can feel the strain building
and you’re ready to choose care before exhaustion makes the choice for you.

If this speaks to you, comment RETREAT and I’ll send you the details 🤍

This still makes me emotional 👇

I remember the exact moment I realized something had to change.

I was standing in my kitchen early in the morning, coffee in hand, already feeling behind before the day had even started.

On the outside, everything looked fine.
Capable. Responsible. Holding it all together.
But underneath, my nervous system never truly rested.

I had been moving through every season of my life the same way, not because I didn’t know better, but because my life had become so full there was no space left to honor what my body was actually asking for.

The shift came when I stopped asking,
“How do I get more done?”
And started asking,
“What has this season been asking of me that I’ve been ignoring?”

That’s when I realized it wasn’t a lack of knowledge.
It was a lack of space.

✨ Wisdom isn’t helpful if there’s no room to live it.✨

If you’re doing all the “right” things but still feel off, nothing is wrong with you.

Your life may simply be too full to hear your body clearly.

I’m holding space for exactly this inside my upcoming Simply Well Retreat .moon.studio with

A weekend to create space again and remember how to live in rhythm with the season you’re actually in.

If this speaks to you, comment retreat and I’ll send you the details 🤍

When she first came to me, she was tired in a way that went deeper than sleep.

She already knew she needed to make time for herself.
But the thought of getting ready, leaving her family at home, driving to a studio, being “on” for an hour, and then returning to what could be chaos felt completely overwhelming.

What no one talks about is how, when you’re that depleted, even leaving your home can feel like too much instead of deeply nourishing.

So we created a space where she could simply lie down, in the comfort of her own home, and receive rest without effort.

Now, her stress and anxiety have softened.
Her mind feels clear.
Her body actually rests when it’s meant to and has energy that sustains her through the day.

The moment I knew things had shifted was when she said,
“I can show up just as I am and come back to myself.”

This is why I created The Rest Collective.
Because rest isn’t just about sleep.

It’s about having a nervous system that can meet life as it keeps lifing.
Because it always will.

It’s about breath, gentle movement, and having space to let things land instead of carrying them forever.

If this feels familiar, comment REST for your invitation to join us inside The Rest Collective.

01/18/2026

I was doing literally everything.
And yes, I’m a wellness practitioner.
I know how to take care of myself.

And somehow… I was still lost.

Easily exhausted.
Moody for no clear reason.
Frustrated by the smallest things.

And missing
my spark.
my fun.
my SELF.

Any other midlife women out there who feel disconnected from parts of themselves after big seasons of life?
Hands up 🙋‍♀️

For me, the turning point came when I stopped trying to push my way back to myself and started letting myself rest in a way my nervous system actually needed.

Not more effort.
Not more discipline.
Not more fixing.

Just real, deep, supported rest.

Now I don’t chase my energy.
I protect my rest.
And my spark came back on its own.

If you’re in that place right now wondering if you’ve changed forever…
I want you to know this.

You’re not broken.
You’re just exhausted.

And this is exactly why Leslie and I created Simply Well,
a women’s Ayurvedic retreat.

A weekend of rest, care, and connection through Ayurveda.
A space to soften the load.
To be held.
To come back to yourself without needing to earn it.

If your body is craving this kind of rest
comment RETREAT and we’ll send you the details 🤍

Some people feel the pull and hesitate.
Others just know.

They know their nervous system needs consistency.
They know rest can’t be optional anymore.
They know this year is asking for steadiness, confidence, and fire that can be sustained.

This isn’t about trying something.
It’s about choosing a container that holds you week after week.

The Rest Collective is that space.
A place to land, regulate, and restore
so you can meet your life with more clarity and capacity.

We gather tonight at 9 pm MST on Zoom.

If you know, you know.

You’re welcome to join us. Link in bio and stories

This time of year can feel surprisingly tough on the body.

Many of my clients share that they feel like they’re just starting to feel better, and then suddenly something else moves through. A second or third wave. A bit more intensity. A little less resilience than usual.

It can be frustrating, especially when you’re doing so many “right” things. And of course, when we feel this way, it’s natural to start looking for something to fix it.

Ayurveda reminds us that this is often a sign of depletion, not failure.

Immune health isn’t built through force or effort. It’s built through rest, rhythm, nourishment, and care that helps the body feel safe enough to regulate itself again.

This season asks for gentler support. And for listening a little more closely to what the body is asking for.

This is the lens I work from in my practice. You’re welcome to reach out if you’re curious about working together.

So much love and well-being,
Dr. Jenny 🤍

I teach rest for a living.

And yet here I am, shovelling snow again, layered up, breath visible, questioning my life choices while winter in Northern Canada does what it does best.

This is the part no one puts on the wellness highlight reel. Rest does not mean opting out of reality. It means meeting life as it is and knowing when to soften after the effort. Sometimes rest looks like a Yoga Nidra. Sometimes it looks like finishing the driveway and knowing you’re done for the day.

Seasons like this are humbling. They remind me that resilience and rest are not opposites. They’re partners. And one without the other is a fast track to burnout.

So yes, I teach rest for a living.
And yes, I take it very seriously.

Winter chose violence 😂😂
I choose The Rest Collective.

There’s an unspoken pressure that creeps in right about now.

The pressure to plan.
To reset.
To decide who you’re going to be in January.

And Ayurveda gently says
Not now ~ Not yet

Winter is not the season for trending detoxes, overhauling your life, or shocking your nervous system into submission with a brand new routine.

Winter is the season of rebuilding reserves.
Of warmth.
Of slowness.
Of letting your system catch up to everything it’s been carrying.

If you’ve felt heavy, foggy, emotional, unmotivated, or quietly overwhelmed this month
Nothing is wrong with you.

Your body is asking for containment, not correction.

This is exactly why rest practices like Yoga Nidra are not a luxury right now. They give your nervous system somewhere to land. So clarity can come naturally, instead of being forced.

If you feel called to rest tonight, I’m guiding Yoga Nidra this evening at 9pm MST on Zoom.
You’re welcome to join for a single class. Pajamas encouraged. Cameras off. No pressure to do anything but lie down and receive.

And if not tonight
Let this be your permission slip to move gently into the new year.

Winter knows what it’s doing🖤

A reminder that the most meaningful gifts are not things.

12/05/2025

Tonight’s Cold Supermoon is the last full moon of the year and it brings a deep invitation to pause. In Vedic and Ayurvedic wisdom this moon brings emotional clarity and a gentle clearing of the weight you have been quietly carrying.

Many women feel this moon in their body long before it arrives and for days after.
The tenderness in your chest.
The restless sleep.
The sudden emotions.
The craving to slow down.
The sense that something is shifting inside even if you cannot name it yet.

This moon highlights the places where you have been stretched thin and where your system has been asking for softness. But it is also a time to celebrate. As we move forward we shoulder check and glance in the rear-view mirror. Not to go back but to honour what we learned, what we carried, what we released, and the quiet ways we grew.

Tonight is your exhale.
A moment to let go of what has drained you and to celebrate the strength, wisdom, and resilience that brought you here.

Support your body with warm grounding meals, gentle reflection, and a simple warm oil massage to settle your nervous system. Let this moon remind you that you do not need to finish the year pushing. You can finish it more connected, more rested, and more yourself.

May tonight bring clarity, steadiness, celebration, and a softer beginning as you move toward 2026.

Celebrating you all
Dr Jenny ♥️

What’s on your calendar that’s just for you this fall?

So many of my clients are women who are busy.
Busy at work and at home.

They’re also carrying that nagging knowing that their body is starting to fight back ~ the aches, the fatigue, the edge of burnout.

They’re in desperate need of a recharge, but without a huge amount of effort or time.

Something simple and effective that fits into their now, but makes them feel less anxious when they go to bed at night and more energized when the alarm goes off in the morning.

Yes, it’s easy to get caught up in the business of only caring for others.

It’s also easier than you think to get back on track.

🍂 That’s why I brought back the most popular summer special and reimagined it for fall.

The Fall Ayurvedic Nourish Special:
Choose two deeply restorative Ayurvedic treatments for $222 ~ including my new mini Ayurvedic facial as an option.

Imagine three months from now you could be:
✨ Sleeping deeper and waking rested
✨ Feeling lighter in your body and calmer in your mind
✨ Actually enjoying the season instead of dragging yourself through it

Before you hit full burnout, know there are simple, easy, and intuitive ways to care for yourself right now.

Fall is the ideal season to nourish.
Nourish your body.
Nourish your nervous system.
Nourish your senses.

If you’re craving something that lasts longer than a fluffy spa day, this is it.

Spaces are limited and this offer ends October 2, the final day of Navratri. After that, the price will be gone forever as I step into new offerings and pricing this October.

✨ Treat yourself this fall. Link in bio to claim your Nourish Special.
