Healing After Birth With Ayurveda

An integral part of my doula work is facilitating deep healing. As an Ayurvedic doula, I help postpartum mothers heal through nourishment, self care and rest

Nourishment with foods, teas, and herbs

Yoga with movement, breath work and guided meditation

Self Care with abhyanga warm oil massage, belly wrapping, yoni steaming

Rest with newborn and sibling care, household help and a thorough postpartum plan

A postpartum doula is focused on mother baby care- whatever that means for you

In my work as a doula, I have shared information on newborn sleep, taught mothers how to baby wear, helped establish a proper breastfeeding latch and eased worries about what’s “normal” in this sacred window of time. I’ve also prepared meals, sanitized bottles, vacuumed the house before in-laws visit, and picked up older children from school. I’ve comforted women as they cry about the overwhelm of it all and laugh with them during baby’s first bath.

Postpartum can be full of high highs and low lows. My role is to tend to all of your needs as your family transitions and transforms. My purpose is supporting women and children while guiding women to trust their intuitive nature of mothering.

I might be the postpartum doula for you if…

  • You’re a first time mom and feeling anxious about newborn care and after birth recovery

  • You have older children and need help balancing life with 2, or 3, or 4…

  • You have risk factors for postpartum mood disorders and want to set yourself up with support mentally, physically and emotionally

  • You want to nourish yourself with healthy meals and promote lactation with herbs but have no idea how

  • Your baby is already here and you’re struggling (no shame, it’s not always easy)

  • You have no family or friends around and need to find your “village”

  • You want to make the transition of growing a family as gentle as possible

    Currently Serving Monmouth and Ocean County, NJ

  • In this private class, you will learn how to establish routines for you and baby, what types of foods to prioritize in your diet, and what herbs support perineal healing and lactation. I will also help you understand the common and uncommon aspects of the postpartum recovery process, how to set boundaries with family members and  how to navigate the shifts all families experience as they grow. Of course, we’ll review some self care measures to practice too. At the end of the class, you’ll feel prepared for postpartum and have less things to think about, so you can focus on relaxing as you prepare for birth and then bonding with your newborn once they arrive.
