This is my last week on Facebook. Meta has made us believe that our relationships (and our businesses) rely on Meta. Part of me believes it, and I really want to prove those parts (and Meta) wrong.

If you want to keep up with the midlife mischief I will continue to put out into the world, make sure you receive my bi-weekly 🦩 joy letters 🦩 You can sign up at letters.mrslaine.com

But I also crave reciprocity and depth, so I decided to offer a FREE Sylke-Leaves-Social-Media Remote Nature Therapy Experience.

If you can't imagine what that's like – good. Follow your curiosity and join me.

🌱 No matter how long we've known each other here or IRL, you are invited.

🌱 No matter where you can join us from, you are invited (all you need is Zoom, a headset, and good reception).

🌱 No matter how skeptical you are, you are invited.

Join me this Sunday, March 2nd, 9 am MT (8 am PT, 11 am ET, 5 pm CET). Please register in the comments, so I know you're coming.

In other words, Wilder Women.

Wild women who are questioning the answers they’ve been served.

Wild women who are returning to their true Nature.

Wild women who remember and trust what they Know. Have always known.

Re-wild in the wildness of Western Oregon, riding the wave trains of the Rogue River.

Go Rogue with us, September 14-20, 2025.

My Nature Therapy Guide work is about the healing powers of getting lost in time in the woods.

Which is kind of the opposite of the addictive powers of getting lost in social media scrolling.

Which is one of the reasons I decided to leave by the end of the month.

Which is why this is the last time I will be posting my event dates here.

Let me know in the comments if you want to get added to my monthly Tree Mail to never miss a walk — in person or remote.

And don’t wait to register for the spring sessions with Missoula Parks and Recreation

I am so excited to be guiding monthly Mindful Saunters for Missoula Parks and Recreation this year, starting with the Vernal Equinox. We will move to different parks and conservation lands each month, and I will craft unique invitations for each event.

You can start signing up now, and I will put a link in the comments to do so. I hope to see you in the forest and would love it if you spread the word.

That’s a wrap on my 2024 season.
Danke,
Thank you,
Lemlemtš
to everyone who came out to the forest with me (or your backyard if you joined one of my remote sessions).

If you are into handwritten notes, human connection, nature, mindfulness, and coming to your senses in guided mini-retreats, you should join me in 2025.

I am going into hibernation for the winter season but I will be back for the Spring Equinox.

Since I will be off social media by then, you won’t hear about my events here anymore. If you leave me a comment or message me, I will gladly add you to my Tree Mail list and you won’t miss your spot in the circle.

“Where is the growth?” one of my mentors used to ask me when I came to her with difficult decisions.

❓Quit my job?

❓Leave my marriage?

❓❓❓Yes? No? Now? Later? Never?

Since I first considered leaving social media, I’ve asked myself the question: “Am I stretching my comfort zone by learning how (and who) to be here, or by remembering how to be without?”

For a long while, the answer was staying while giving fewer f*s about likes, hearts, comments and typos.

Now, it’s in leaving and having tea by the tree with my fear of abandonment and loneliness.

She isn’t liking this leaving-social-media business one bit. But she has become good friends with curiosity over the last few years and the two of them have agreed to give it a go.

Integrity is more than pleased in her role as benevolent guidance counselor.

If posts like this are your jam (or your butter?), you can subscribe to my bi-weekly joy letters. Once I’ve freed my energy from hanging out here, they’ll get even more jammy (buttery?). Letter 100 is coming up soon.

🦦 Are you ready to unplug from the relentless demands of everyday life?

🦦Have your passions and creative sparks been buried under layers of roles and responsibilities?

🦦Do you ever want to leave it all behind and go on a wild adventure?

and I know exactly what that’s like. That’s why we’re inviting you to the wildness of Western Oregon’s Rogue River, where we’ll unplug from any cultural demands and slowly, purposefully reconnect with our wildest, truest Selves.

The poet Mary Oliver posed the question:
What is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?

Guess what! Your true Nature knows exactly what it is here to do. You just need to unplug from the noise so you can learn to listen, again, to its desires.

If your curiosity is peaked, comment Wild or message me and I’ll share the details with you.

Join me for my last event of the year. Welcome winter and celebrate the fact that this dark-at-five nonsense is finally turning around. Or maybe you are like me and enjoy being outside in the dark? You are welcome either way. The land don’t care.

This is also the final installment of the seasonal Native Plant Garden Immersions. If you all come, I bet the Montana Natural History Center will say “yes” to another series next year.

Come to the forest with me. We will chill under the full moon and channel her above-it-all mood. Well, for you and me, it might be more of a past-it-all mood and a silent celebration of the first female U.S. president. Unless you forget to vote. So please do not.
