Hi there, Big Sky Community:

June is Immigrant Heritage Month—a time to celebrate the strength, courage, and contributions of immigrants while also acknowledging the barriers, discrimination, and uncertainty that many communities continue to face.

Without question, healing is deeply connected to justice, belonging, and community. We recognize that immigration journeys often carry stories of resilience, hope, grief, sacrifice, cultural pride, and intergenerational healing. We also recognize the impact that xenophobia, racism, family separation, displacement, and systemic inequities can have on mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual well-being.

We stand in solidarity with immigrants, refugees, mixed-status families, and all those seeking safety, opportunity, and connection. We celebrate the wisdom, traditions, languages, and cultures that enrich our communities and make our collective healing possible.

Everyone deserves to feel safe, valued, and supported. Everyone deserves access to care, dignity, and the opportunity to thrive.

This month and every month, Big Sky is committed to building a culture of belonging.

🩷❤️🧡💛💚🩵💜🤎🖤🩶🤍

🌈Hi BSW Community🌈

Pride began as a movement for liberation, fueled by the courage of people who refused to hide who they were and demanded a world where they could live openly, safely, and fully.

As we celebrate Pride, we honor the resilience, joy, and strength of LGBTQIA+ communities—past, present, and future. We also recognize that the work of creating equity, safety, and belonging is ongoing.

At our practice, we believe that healing and liberation are deeply connected. Through therapy, yoga, and reiki, we strive to create spaces where every person is welcomed in their full humanity. Spaces where identities are not simply tolerated, but celebrated. Where your story matters. Where your voice is heard. Where you do not have to shrink yourself to fit someone else's idea of who you should be.

We know that living authentically in a world that can be challenging, exclusionary, or harmful takes courage. We see the strength it takes to claim your identity, set boundaries, seek support, and choose yourself again and again.

This Pride Month, we stand in solidarity with LGBTQIA+ communities. We celebrate your joy, honor your experiences, and affirm your right to exist, thrive, love, heal, and take up space exactly as you are.

Your identity is powerful.
Your presence is valuable.
Your whole self belongs here.
With pride. Today and every day. 🏳️‍🌈✨

Therapy, yoga, reiki - basically your one stop shop for healing support. We believe you have what you need to feel good, we can help light the path to get there. 🤍

No yoga class May 29 or June 5, but we will resume on June 12. ✨

☀️Hi Big Sky Community!☀️

Just a friendly reminder — BSW offers more than talk therapy. We believe healing happens through supporting both the mind and body, and sometimes additional practices can help release stress, tension, and unhelpful patterns in new ways.

Our yoga and reiki services are uniquely grounded in mental health care, as both are led by licensed therapists who understand the connection between emotional and physical wellness.

Be sure to check out our website to learn more about our yoga and reiki offerings — and stay tuned because we’ll be adding another body-based wellness service very soon! 👀

New and soon-to-be mamas, check it out!

Pelvic floor health is about so much more than Kegels.

Your pelvic floor works together with your breath, core, hips, posture, and nervous system.

In this yoga-based class, we’ll explore:
✨ Breath and core coordination
✨ Gentle strengthening and release
✨ Posture and mobility
✨ Nervous system regulation
✨ Body awareness and reconnection

Designed for women in all stages of life, including pregnancy, postpartum, and menopause.

Small class size for individualized support and a calm, welcoming environment.

Hi BSW Community:
💚 May is Mental Health Awareness Month 💚

Did you know that 1 in 5 adults experience a mental health condition each year? And while stress and anxiety have become increasingly common, many people still wait months — or even years — before reaching out for support.

This month is a reminder that caring for your mental and emotional wellbeing matters — and that many of us could benefit from offering ourselves a little more compassion, rest, and support.

Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, anxious, emotionally drained, or simply wanting to reconnect with yourself, you don’t have to navigate it alone.

At Big Sky, we offer therapy services along with holistic wellness options including yoga and Reiki to support healing of the mind and body.

We currently have immediate openings available and are here to support you wherever you are in your journey.

Taking care of yourself is not selfish — it’s essential.

Happy Mother’s Day - we see you, support you, and value the often invisible work you do. 🤍

🌸Hi BSW Community🌸
This Mother's Day, we honor the many expressions of motherhood and the powerful women who embody them every day.

We celebrate mothers - the ones in the thick of it, showing up day after day with strength, leadership, and deep, unwavering care. Whether you are raising young children, supporting grown ones, navigating sleepless nights, or holding your family together though life's many seasons - your presence matters.

We also honor the broader spirit of mothering that lives in so many women: as guides, healers, nuturures, and community builders. In our therapy, yoga, and reiki spaces, we witness this energy daily - the resilience, the courage to grow, and the compassion that supports others through change.

We hold space for the truth that motherhood comes in many forms. It may look like raising kids, mentoring others, caring for loved ones, or tending to the world in meaningful ways.

And today, we also acknowledge the women who carry invisible stories - those who have lost babies, those navigating grief, and those who long to become mothers. Your love is real and deeply felt.

May this day be one of gentleness, recognition, and connection. 🤍

With care and gratitude,
The BSW Team

Hi BSW:

🤍 Today is Anti-Diet Day 🤍

In a world that constantly tells us to shrink, fix, or “bounce back,” we want to offer a different message:
You are not a problem to solve.
Your body is not a project.
Your worth was never meant to be measured in numbers, sizes, or before-and-after photos.
And your weight is not a true indicator of your health.

For so many women—especially those navigating postpartum changes, healing from disordered eating, or rebuilding self-worth—this day can bring up a lot. Grief, anger, relief, hope… all of it is valid.

What if, instead of fighting your body, you began listening to it?
What if care replaced control?
What if you trusted your internal cues rather than relying on external data collectors—watches, scales, calorie counts—to tell you how you’re doing?
What if nourishment—physical, emotional, and mental—became the goal?

Healing isn’t about perfection. It’s about coming home to yourself, gently.

Today, we honor bodies in all their seasons.
We honor rest.
We honor nourishment.
We honor you.

If this resonates, know you’re not alone—and you don’t have to navigate it on your own. At BSW, our work is grounded in inclusive, compassionate care, guided by Intuitive Eating and Health at Every Size. We’re here, ready to support you—just as you are.

Midwives truly are a gift - thank you for the work you do! 🤍

Celebrating National Day of the Midwife and the incredible hands and hearts that guide so many families through birth.

Midwives bring wisdom, calm, and compassionate care to every journey honoring birth as both powerful and deeply personal.

As a doula, I'm so grateful to work alongside midwives who uplift, support, and advocate for the families they serve. The collaboration, trust, and dedication you bring make such a strong lasting impact.

Thank you for the care, the strength, and the presence you offer every single day.

Truly - you can come exactly as you are. New to yoga? Great! Haven’t done it in a while? Also great! Hate stretching? No problem - the practice is a lot more than stretches.

Our next class is May 15 at 10a - I’d love to see you there! 💚
