Mothering Ourselves Mindfully
You’re a thoughtful, capable, deeply caring mother who wants to be present and feel excited about your life and motherhood..
but you’re continually anxious or annoyed, and can't seem to stop running on empty while still being needed by everyone.
All you know is you're desperately trying to hold it together while quietly burning out.
You might:
Snap at your kids and feel awful five minutes later, realizing that, “ugh, I sound like my mother” or “I know better, why am I still reacting like this!?”
Struggle to rest without guilt, even when you’re exhausted — how can I put my feet up when there are dishes in the sink!?
Feel disconnected from your own needs — like you’ve forgotten how to care for yourself and frankly don’t even know how you can fill your own cup these days
Feel responsible for everyone’s emotional well-being (not to mention the mental and logistical load, like, do they have enough snacks?)
Which has helped you understand why you shut down or feel anxious and overwhelmed…
You're not failing as a mom.
And you're certainly putting in the effort. (You don’t need another book or podcast!)
It’s what happens when no one compassionately and assertively tells you (like I am now!) that thinking about the problem hasn’t fixed it and it never will.
You’ve read the books.
Listened to the podcasts.
Gone to therapy.
It’s what happens when no one ever taught you how to notice and listen to what your body is telling you—instead of ignoring or pushing past it.
And yet…despite your awareness and best intentions…
Your needs still come last.
You're handling it all until you’re resentful and exhausted.
You second-guess yourself and never feel like you’re doing enough .
Your needs still come last.
You're handling it all until you’re resentful and exhausted.
You second-guess yourself and never feel like you’re doing enough .
You can’t raise emotionally healthy, grounded children without first learning how to feel safe, supported, and steady in your own body.
You need to be the role model and go first.
Most likely, you didn’t grow up with a mindful, emotionally attuned mother — unless you had a unicorn!
Instead, your own mom was most likely overwhelmed, anxious, or shut down — not because she didn’t care, but because she was carrying her own patterns without support.
Here’s the truth most mothers never hear:
Which means you are left to figure out how to be this person for yourself and your kids all alone.
“I don’t want to pass this down —
but I’ve never been shown another way.
I don’t have the models. I don’t have the support.
And honestly? I’m tired of just talking about it.
I’m ready to do something tangible that leads to real changes — in how I feel, how I react, and how I show up for myself and my kids.”
Mothering Ourselves Mindfully exists for this very moment, where you realize:
Mothers who join The School of MOM often struggle with:
They’re constantly tending to others’ emotions, with no space left for their own. They’re always on edge—one spill or lost sock away from snapping.
Taking care of everyone else while ignoring their own needs
They swore they’d parent differently, yet they hear their mom’s voice coming out of their mouth. They feel defeated, ashamed, and unsure how to actually respond intentionally.
Doing the very things they promised themselves they wouldn’t
They’re depleted, but asking for help feels selfish or unattainable. They know something has to change—they just don’t know what.
Having no time or space for their own needs
If you are like the moms in The School of MOM, you desire to:
Feel more present and patient with your kids—not because your kids change, but because you feel steadier inside yourself.
Feel more in tune with your own needs and body, without guilt, and in ways that work in the chaos of real life.
Model a different way for your kids—letting go of habits like guilt, worry, and doing too much, and showing them that flourishing is possible regardless of what season and stage you’re in.
What you’ll learn
Practice and
Integrate:
Change how you see and talk to yourself
Learn simple and science-backed mindfulness tools that help you step out of constant pressure and into a calmer way of relating to yourself—so you stop trying to fix or control and start listening to what your body actually needs.
Over our 8 weeks together, you’ll move through a clear, step-by-step path designed for moms.
Become your biggest support
Learn how to mother yourself in hard moments — shifting from self-criticism to self-kindness. This is where you stop turning on yourself and start supporting and celebrating yourself.
Listen to your body with clarity and understanding
Learn what your body has been trying to tell you. Understand how stress patterns and ways of coping get passed down, and how to stop repeating them.
Reclaim time for YOU
Learn how to protect your time, set AND HOLD boundaries, and stop treating your needs as optional. You’ll stop waiting for later when you “have more time” and start caring for yourself in ways that actually fit your life right now.

"The School of MOM opened my eyes to the power of mindfulness and gave me space to learn how to practice it."
"Sarah's expertise is only surpassed by her warmth, compassion and commitment to helping women cope with stress, uncertainty and life's daily grind. The School of MOM has enabled me to connect with a community of women who offer support, understanding and a sense of belonging in a world that can be isolating at times.
I've only just begun to explore the practice of mindfulness and can clearly see the benefits of incorporating it into my life. I give all the credit to The School of MOM."

"Finding connection with other women in The School of MOM has been a true solace.
Sarah helps us share our experiences in a way that is revealing and honest, but still comfortable. I don’t think it’s easy to find a community of supportive and positive moms, even under the best of circumstances. Sarah has built that community with The School of MOM."

"One of the most helpful parts of The School of MOM was the sense of community.
Even though we are all doing this virtually, there is a sense that we are working along side each other as like-minded mothers to find ways to find peace in the midst of chaos so that we can then better mother our children. I am finding that I am more aware of my triggers, more aware of what my body needs (movement!!!!), and in turn, working on self-compassion. This is a process and a journey. The School of MOM helped me to feel less like I am flailing in the world and gave me direction."

"Working with Sarah has changed my life and unlocked my soul to experiencing myself, my life, and motherhood in the way I’ve always wanted.
She keeps its 100% real, offers you 360 support via extensive resources, yoga practice, mindfulness, and helping to reframe how I approached my anxiety and internal negative dialog. She’s extremely well read and brings that as a foundation coupled with her authentic way of connecting with you right where you're at....and always never with judgment. Sarah’s incorporation of mindfulness and self-compassion have unearthed the tools of mothering myself which is something I hadn’t done for myself and now that I’m a mom, is more important than ever."

"To say Sarah and The School of MOM has helped me become a better mom, wife, business partner, and boss, essentially a better human, would be a vast understatement.
She has helped me work towards becoming the best version of myself through giving my strategies to help cultivate better relationships both personally and professionally by teaching me how to have control over my actions, by first changing my thoughts.
She has taught me how to be more present and appreciative of my time with my kids through mindfulness and the practice of discernment (the pause between feelings and action). She has taught me to be less frustrated with challenging situations and/or people in my life through resetting my expectations and using boundaries.
She is the very best at what she does."

And then there’s me…
I didn’t create this work because I had it all figured out.
I created it because I needed it and couldn’t find anything like The School of MOM — an intentionally curated curriculum and community FOR MOMS, because we're a unique bunch for whom 90% of the advice for the general public doesn’t seem to apply. Case in point — the morning routine!
Like many women in our community, I grew up without a mother who could emotionally meet me.
I learned early on that emotions — especially the hard ones — were unwelcome, and that it was safer to shut down or disconnect from my body.
Without fully being aware of it…
I became hyper-responsible.
High-functioning.
Disconnected from my own body and needs.
Stuck in the endless chase for worthiness and “enough.”
Motherhood cracked me open — especially as a new mom navigating a strained and ultimately estranged relationship with my own mother.
As a lifelong student of what I teach, I am deeply committed to becoming a mom who models a new way—and to cultivating healthier, more loving relationships with my two daughters.
I’m Sarah Lowell Harmon — nature lover, embodiment guide, mindfulness teacher, licensed therapist, and mother.

You weren’t meant to do this alone.
Prioritizing your needs isn’t selfish—it’s what allows you to show up differently and model a new way for your kids.
Mothering Ourselves Mindfully is where you learn to come back to yourself with curiosity and compassion — so you feel calmer, more grounded, and more like the mom you want and are meant to be.
FREQUENTLY ASKED
questions
It’s a practical way to learn how to relate to yourself and your present-moment experience with more awareness, kindness, and care.
It means noticing what’s happening inside you—your thoughts, feelings, and body—and around you, including other people’s behaviors and your real-life circumstances, and responding instead of pushing through, ignoring yourself, or powering on at your own expense.
Over time, this changes how you show up in your life and in your parenting. You feel steadier, more present, and more compassionate with yourself—and your kids and loved ones feel that difference too.
Mothering Ourselves Mindfully isn’t one-size-fits-all. Every woman’s journey is different—but this gives you a place to begin.
We begin our journey together by helping you look at how you relate to time, rest, and your own needs, so this program and work can actually fit into your life.
Live teaching calls with Sarah are held bi-weekly (weeks 1, 3, 5, and 7) and are recorded, so you can watch the replays if you can’t attend live.
Group integration calls are held on alternating weeks (2, 4, 6, and 8). While you don’t need to attend everything live to benefit, we strongly recommend prioritizing these sessions. They are not recorded to protect confidentiality and to create a truly safe space.
If you’re still thinking, “I don’t have time,” you’re not alone. And to put it bluntly, you’re not a special snowflake. Truthfully, every mother who joins feels this way at first.
Ironically, the very thing that will help you stop putting yourself last is the thing you’ll tell yourself you don’t have time for.
Most mothers don’t magically find time—they learn how to make it in realistic, sustainable ways. That’s something we support you with from the very beginning.
Here’s the liberating truth:
You do have time.
You just haven’t been taught to make it for yourself or believe you’re worthy of putting yourself first.
If your child were sick and needed to see a doctor, would you make time?
If your boss or a client asked you to prioritize something, would you adjust your schedule?
Of course.
We make time for what we believe matters.
And if you’re caught in the trap of “I just can’t,” I’m here to tell you—that belief is rewireable. I’ve done it. Countless women I’ve worked with have done it too.
Not because we have unlimited resources or the perfect support system—we don’t.
We have limited budgets, unsupportive partners, and demanding jobs.
But we’ve made a decision:
If we’re committed to being mindful, present, and compassionate humans and mothers, then caring for ourselves isn’t optional—it’s our single most important job and responsibility.
Mothering Ourselves Mindfully is thoughtfully designed for moms in real life—not moms with perfect schedules or full-time support.
I wrote this question for myself many years ago.
For years, I signed up for programs and courses I didn’t fully complete.
That’s exactly why The School of MOM was created — to reflect everything I’ve learned about what actually works for mothers.
Thriving requires support, and that is our top priority.
Not only will you have me (Sarah) as your guide, but you’ll also be supported by our incredible community mom and Rest Queen, Ali, who’s here to walk alongside you every step of the way.
And just as importantly, you’ll be part of a brand new community of like-hearted women, committed to the same journey of mothering themselves and becoming more mindful, compassionate humans.
Just like you can’t get stronger without lifting the weight, real change takes some effort.
But we help you approach that effort with realism, self-compassion, and the right kind of structure.
We’ve seen women experience life-changing results at all levels of engagement.
Some attend every call.
Others show up to just a few — and still leave feeling like completely different humans than when they began.
Bottom line: You get out what you put in — and we help you put in what actually works for your real life.
Absolutely. It’s important that this feels like a yes — even if that yes feels a little stretchy or uncomfortable (which there’s a good chance it will!)
You can book a 15-minute clarity chat with Sarah HERE to ask questions and explore whether this is the right next step for you.
Yes. Every mother deserves access to this kind of support.
If you’re experiencing financial hardship, you can email hello@theschoolofmom.com to inquire about a scholarship or reduced rate.
If you can afford the investment but feel resistance to spending money on yourself, that’s something we name and normalize here.
You’re not alone — and that hesitation is often part of the work.
In fact, it’s a sign that this is your work.
Personally, this has been one of the most transformative parts of my journey:
rewiring the internal “rules” I had about what I was allowed to invest in — especially when it comes to my own self-care.
That resistance is often the mother wound at work, which is why your mother wounds and money wounds can be intimately connected.
By investing in your healing through The School of MOM,
you’re not just shifting your own experience —
you’re transforming generational patterns and modeling something radically different for your children: a new story around self-worth, value, and what they’re allowed to invest in, too.
Mothering Ourselves Mindfully is the foundational program within The School of MOM.
It gives you shared language, practical tools, and a grounded understanding you can build on. From there, some women choose to continue into deeper community spaces or additional support offerings, while others take what they’ve learned and integrate it on their own.
There is no pressure—just an open door if and when you’re ready.
