I endeavour to expand women’s awareness of themselves, of their bond with their unborn child and to provide them with information to make informed decisions about pregnancy, birth and early motherhood. I assist women in becoming empowered in choosing a path that is right for them, and mentor them in a sense of surrender: to be able to allow whatever happens to be a positive, affirming, guilt-free experience. My aim is to provide the emotional, physical and spiritual support that a woman so needs in this time of transition.

My studies have pivoted around pregnancy and birth as the central, underlying core in my journey of discovery. I am a Hatha Yoga and Kundalini Yoga teacher  who has specialised in Pregnancy Yoga under the mentorship of Aryo Jacobsen, Gurmukh Kaur Khalsa and Sat Hari Kaur.  This specialisation has resulted in tailor-made classes dealing with the specific physical, emotional and spiritual concerns of pregnancy. My own daily spiritual practice for the last 10 years enriches the offering I provide.

I undertook a special thesis on pregnancy whilst qualifying as an aromatherapist and reflexologist which gives me unique insights and an understanding of what a therapist should provide. I’ve added to those specialisations with qualifications in Reiki and Body Alignment, giving me multi-modalities to work with in achieving health and relaxation for pregnant and post-partum women.

I have gained more than a decade of experience as a doula since my qualification as a Doula Birth companion, many spent under the teaching of Sharon Marsay, an active birth advocate. With my qualification in Hypnotherapy through the SA School of Practical Hypnosis and Research, I have expanded my offering by being one of the pioneers of HypnoBirthing® in South Africa, having trained with the HypnoBirthing Institute.

My quest for greater knowledge towards understanding began at the age of 17 when I did my first meditation course with TM and has also spanned studying Numerology, Tree of Life and Kabbalah under Kate Rheeders; completing the Life Line and Life Line counsellor course; learning from Deepak Chorpra's primordial sound mediation course; and being trained in Peter Hieblooms Alpha Mind Power course. In 2005 I also completed my Vision Quest with Judy Bekker and Valerie Morris, who introduced the Vision Quest process to South Africa.
