Meaningful Moments Amid the Mayhem
Welcome to MomBalm
This is a supportive space for moms at every stage of life, where you’ll find encouragement, practical tools, and a sense of community to help improve life for you and your family.
Mindfulness has been scientifically proven to reduce stress, anxiety, and depression, while also improving emotional regulation, sleep quality, and even boosting brain function by increasing gray matter. Over the years, incorporating mindfulness practices into my daily routine has made a real difference in my own life, and I’m excited to share with you the insights I’ve gained along the way.
“The moment you accept responsibility for everything in your life is the moment you gain the power to change anything in your life.”
-Hal Elrod
What you’ll find here is a collection of the tools, tips, and insights that have personally helped me on my journey toward becoming a more mindful mom. I don’t believe there’s one “right” way to practice mindfulness, and I definitely don’t subscribe to the idea that there’s a strict set of rules you have to follow. In fact, I’m naturally skeptical of anything that claims there is. Mindfulness is about cultivating self-awareness in the present moment, and that means the practices that work best for you are the ones that bring you more peace and presence in your daily life.
As Bruce Lee said about his approach to martial arts, “Absorb what is useful, discard what is useless, and add what is specifically your own.”
If you are not a mom, but you’ve found yourself here anyway, you are welcome here as well. The information here is useful for anyone and everyone in need of support on their journey to a more peaceful path through life.

Resources and guidance to provide support to moms at every stage, whether you’re seeking more balance, inner peace, or mindfulness techniques that fit into your busy life.
Continuous Encouragement & Support
You’re not alone on this journey. Find encouragement through articles, shared stories, and practical advice that’s here to uplift and support you.
I created this site to provide the kind of guidance I once searched for myself but couldn’t find all in one place. If there’s a topic you’d like more insight on or feel has been overlooked, please feel free to reach out through the comments or the contact page—I’d love to hear from you.
Committed to Accessible Wellness
I’m a firm believer that mental wellbeing should be accessible to all, free of charge. Many of the books I recommend can be found at local libraries or secondhand stores, and several apps offer free versions, making these valuable resources easy to access. The products I link—ones I personally use and value—are shared as optional companions to enhance your journey, not as essentials for growth. If you choose to purchase through my affiliate links (including as an Amazon Associate and other programs), I may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. Your support helps keep this blog thriving—thank you!
