Finding Dharma…
Families are these beautiful stable roots from which to grow our individuality. We all know the power our upbringing and family has had on our self and life, which is why it’s so magical and powerful to make the one we create sacred and uplifting. My passion for working with mothers and families came when I was pregnant and felt firsthand how powerful the experience of transitioning to motherhood can be; especially if you have help or guidance along the way. Community support made my transition into motherhood complete and I wish to offer that to mamas now. I see my role as one of reflecting back what is already present within my clients and students.
This doula journey started with teaching kids yoga. I just loved teaching children these wondrous tools and was inspired when I saw how much it transformed families, brought them closer, made the parents more relaxed and able to be stronger for their children. There was something here! To further my journey into families, I received my prenatal yoga certification in 2015 and have been teaching it ever since. I love creating a mama tribe and connecting to all the ancestors who have taken this journey before us; I also have experience teaching mom and baby yoga. I was finally connecting the yoga practice through all stages of life! Sahaja, or free-flowing movement with no thought, inspires most of my teachings and practices. I enjoy inspiring others to find this place within themselves and to just have fun with their bodies. This transfers over to my doula craft perfectly. Flowing with your body, baby, and the unpredictable nature of birth will bring a certain surrender to your experience. I offer my labor and postpartum services throughout Fort Collins and Northern Colorado. I’d love to hear from you!
