Melissa Scanlon
Hello everyone! Melissa here. zen momma was birthed into existence back in 2013 when my daughter Isabelle was born. A mutual friend introduced me to Zen master Michiko J. Rolek and my path back home to myself was illuminated. During my first meeting with Michiko I was sharing my struggles around bedtime with my then 8-month-old daughter. Michiko asked me one simple question, “how are you feeling around bedtime?” This question served as an ah moment, or awakening. I had to practice loving myself first. During my time coaching with Michiko I learned zen principles and practices that have become the foundation of my self-love practice. I am now a zen momma of two - Isabelle age 9 and Gabe age 6. Truly BEing present with myself and my children has been the greatest gift and is one that I continue to unwrap moment by moment. I am forever grateful to Michiko for sharing her zen wisdom with me so that I in turn may share it with you.
