Nature-based, Body-based Wisdom

Reclaim the ancestral practices to nurture, nourish and protect Life through first nourishing your own health and vitality.

Raise Healthy, Embodied Sons

Access the power of your own life force to create the families, communities, and world you want to live in, and raise the men our world needs.

I want to help you nourish, nurture and protect Life through first nurturing your own health and vitality. 

Modern women are depleted. And this depletion reverberates through all aspects of our lives and our culture – especially our children. The world feels chaotic and mothers feel powerless to affect change in the midst of carrying the mental, physical and psychic load. But the truth is, the most powerful seeds of change live within the female body. There is Nature-based, Body-based wisdom that can provide you with the strength, clarity and resilience to create the life, family and world you want to live in. This wisdom lives within you. I’d like to help you remember. 

About Ayurvedic healing

Ayurveda is a 5,000-year-old healing system that teaches you how to be more alive, healthy and embodied by living in rhythm with the cycles of Nature. Your body is a reflection of Nature and Ayurveda teaches you how to fuel your body and life with Source energy rather than stress energy, which supports nervous system regulation and hormonal health. Ayurveda is a simple, logical and complete system of healing. This is practical wisdom to help you reclaim your vitality, power and radiance. 

About Somatic Experiencing

Somatic experiencing (SE) is a body-oriented therapeutic model that helps people heal from trauma and other symptoms of stress. It’s based on the idea that healing the body’s experience of trauma can also heal the emotional experience. By combining Ayurveda and SE, you can experience greater nervous system regulation, more capacity to handle stress, more pleasure, and greater clarity on what you want in life and the energy to take action on it. 

 

About Me

In my late 20s I collapsed into deep fatigue, then healed myself naturally. Years later, I became a mother to two boys and felt the profound connection between my own vitality and my role as a mother – how nurturing, nourishing and protecting my own life force has such a deep influence on how my boys develop and the men they will grow up to be. I’ve spent the years since helping women reclaim their vital energy and mother more consciously. With both piercing insight into the challenges modern mothers face, along with practical, applied wisdom, I bridge the personal and political in helping mothers access the power of their own life force to create the families, communities, and world we want to live in.
