Doula, Prenatal Yoga, 200 YTT
I am teaching myself how to love better one day at a time...reading, writing, meditating, praying, saying affirmations, doing yoga, therapy, practicing positive self talk, doing things for myself, making new friends, believing in myself, exploring the world, taking missed steps along the way, practicing being gentle and coming more and more into full awareness. I don’t have any answers. I’m not perfect. I am still growing everyday. But, I know that I am a love child. I know that I was put here on this earth to remind people how to love, especially myself. I surely know that “I come as one but, I stand as ten thousand.” I know that I come from generations of traumatized women and yet in my healing, I heal the trauma of my line. I also know that my personal journey and the journey of others are interconnected. If all I can do is feel good in my body, I think I will have achieved what I was meant to in this life!

Services Offered
Doula Sessions- A doula is trained to help and educate the new or experienced mom and provide resources to cope, manage, and transition with these new changes. Every time a baby is born, a new mother is re-born. A doula is also able to help mom after birth, as moms experience their new life and their new addition to their family. There are so many adjustments for moms to make after the baby is here, the doula can help to put in place supports to make sure that mom has continuous care for the best possible outcome. A doula is not a midwife and cannot provide clinical support, we do not take the place of an OBGYN or midwife, we are a part of this team and likely spend more time with the mother than other professionals on the birth team. Doulas can be used for home births, hospital births and birth center births.
Prenatal Yoga and Mom/Baby Yoga- Individualized prenatal yoga and/or mom and baby yoga sessions make my heart very happy! As a doula, yoga is typically incorporated in my client’s preparations for birth and a nice way to receive some specialized attention. Mom and baby yoga is a fun way to connect with baby and also engage in movement and healing for the postpartum body. Breath Work Meditation- Breath work and meditation are one of the most powerful healing tools to bring your body into union with your spirit and offer coherence to your being. It is an instrumental compliment to your existing yoga practice if you have one and also can be a doorway to movement and feeling more alive in your body. In these session we’ll work with different breath techniques and focus our meditation on client specified themes. Energy Healing- Energy Healing can encompass movement, meditation, breath work, writing, singing, dancing, or play. These sessions are kind of a catchall to experiment with different healing practices to support a specific direction of growth, healing, or process that the client identifies. These sessions are great for those open to receiving, willing to be expressive, and receptive to trying new activities. |
