Gratitude for M4M

I have always been struck by the image of Alma Mater (Latin for bountiful or nourishing mother, a term used by the ancients to describe their goddesses). She is strong, she is wise, she is audaciously plump. M4M allows each of us to be an Alma Mama for each other--to be steadfast and nurturing, to be a soft lap to rest in when we are overwhelmed by the storms of motherhood. ~Meredith Adams

Mindfulness for Mamas brings mothers together through both the commonalities and differences they experience in the joys and challenges of raising children in today's fast-paced and ever changing world. Community conversations facilitated by M4M help mothers consider the core about what is truly important in being a parent and raising kind, confident, compassionate and capable children. This group provides not only a supportive community but also a respite for parents to dive deeply inward, something mothers sometimes crave but rarely have the time for. M4M has filled a niche this community greatly needs! ~Rachel Wigglesworth

M4M is a lifeline for mothers to sit with the unknown of motherhood, share when we feel called to vulnerability, listen when we long for the quiet acknowledgment, and gather in a variety of ways when we need connection. I am grateful for the M4M community for connecting us all in our motherhood journeys. ~Julie Tobiason

M4M has provided me a safe and inspiring space to connect, share, and remember that I'm not alone." ~Ashley Eggers
