I am raising money for the National Aphasia Association for Aphasia Awareness Month. Will you please donate to my fundraiser? 🧠🩷

The NAA offers programs, education, resources, research, and advocacy for the aphasia community. As a non-profit organization, this is all made possible through donations.

On a personal note, I’ve had the pleasure and honor of working with the NAA for almost 5 years now. I can promise you that the NAA community is a truly special one, and I would love to see what we could do with even more funding from donations like yours: like new research, equity, and/or programming initiatives.

So, again, please consider donating - even just $5 (like the cost of a nice latte), $26 for 2026, or more if you are financially able.

I will share the link in my bio and stories. THANK YOU!!!

Last month we started a really interesting conversation about resilience. Tomorrow we’ll continue the conversation and will be learning about factors that can help foster resilience.

Looking for information or resources about aphasia?

Check out the National Aphasia Association’s website: aphasia.org

The NAA website has a wealth of information about aphasia. In today’s post I’ve highlighted five resources, which just scratches the surface:

1. Virtual events and programs
2. Provider directory
3. Ask the Expert library
4. Aphasia ID cards
5. Aphasia Quiz

The info and resources on the NAA website are geared for:

-people with aphasia and their care partners
-SLPs and other health care providers
-aphasia researchers
-students
-aphasia organizations

Do yourself and your patients a favor, and take a few minutes and browse the website: aphasia.org

Mindfulness doesn’t have to be complicated.

It doesn’t have to take lots of time or energy.

It can be one breath.
One pause.
One moment of noticing.

And then maybe another.

For people with aphasia or brain injury, simple isn’t “less than”—it’s what helps make mindfulness accessible.

Simple works 🤍

Looking for mindfulness tools for your brain injury patients?

A blog post I wrote about 2 years ago shares examples of free websites, apps, books, and podcasts where you can learn about and access mindfulness practices.

Visit my blog at lotusslp.com/blog and scroll down or “search” to find it. I will also post the direct link in my stories.

Want to learn more about integrating mindfulness into speech therapy? Stay tuned because I happen to have a new resource in the works…! 👀

Today is Parkinson’s Awareness Day, and April is Parkinson’s Awareness Month.

I thought I’d share 10 early signs of PD to help raise awareness (sourced from The Parkinson’s Foundation).

As a speech therapist, my role on the PD care team is to help people with Parkinson’s with their speech, voice, and swallowing. I do this through individual therapy and ongoing voice practice groups. 🗣️

Feel free to reach out with any questions. I am not currently taking new clients, but am happy to be a resource as I can. Somehow the time has flown by and I now have about 15 years experience working with people with PD.

Ps - did you know that the tulip is the symbol that represents Parkinson’s awareness? 🌷
