Hi, I’m Elyse. I’m a certified Ayurvedic practitioner, birth and postpartum doula, and yoga instructor. I’m here to offer you personalized care to help you heal, restore, and unfold into motherhood. Because those first days home with your baby should feel peaceful, not overwhelming. Think of a warm bowl of oats, spiced with herbs that help your body heal. Gentle bodywork that melts away the aches. Mugs of hot tea to sip on. The space to sit. To breathe. This is what postpartum care should feel likeānourishing, calming, and centered on you. With a blend of ancient wisdom and modern support, I’m here to help you focus on what matters most: your well-being and your baby. Certifications: Ayurvedic Health Counselor (Newport Massage School at S.A.M.A.), Ayurvedic Yoga Teacher (Hale Pule Kauai, HI), Prenatal and Postnatal Yoga Teacher (Bliss Baby Yoga), Ayurvedic Postpartum Doula (with Jenna Furnari of ‘Ayurvedic Mamas’), Full Spectrum Doula Training (with Sabia Wade of ‘Birthing Advocacy’), Birth Doula (DONA). For every person bringing life into the world, there should be support, care and loving kindness as the new family transitions into their new space, together. My passion is to bring a sense of peace to the family with a calming presence, education and experience, and holding space for the family to embrace their own power, tenacity, and innate wisdom. Cooking nourishing and grounding foods, soothing the birthing person with Ayurvedic bodywork and guided meditation and using Pregnancy-safe acupressure points are all ways in which I love to support the families. Paired with my Doula knowledge, I am an Ayurvedic Health Counselor, Prenatal and Post Birth yoga teacher and am currently completing my Ayurvedic Postpartum Doula training.
