AYURVEDA DOULA {PRENATAL & POSTNATAL}

About the Retreat: A deeply nourishing afternoon to support you during pregnancy and gently guide you in preparing for the precious “fourth trimester.” Led by Deborah Rose Schoutema - Ayurvedic doctor, doula, and postpartum care specialist - this intimate gathering offers space to connect with your body, your baby, and a supportive circle of mothers. You’ll enjoy grounding practices, practical wisdom, and calming rituals to carry into early motherhood. Whether you’re preparing for your first baby or growing your family, this is your time to pause, be cared for, and feel truly prepared.

Your Afternoon Includes:

1:00pm – Herbal Welcome Ritual

Arrive into a serene space with a soothing Ayurvedic tea blend. A moment to settle in, connect, and honour this stage of your journey.

1:30pm – Pregnancy Yoga & Embodied Connection

Gentle, supportive movement designed for pregnancy, paired with breathwork and meditative flow to release tension and reconnect with your body and baby.

2:45pm – Ayurvedic Wisdom, Belly Binding & Postnatal Planning Learn nourishing rituals, self-care practices, and the art of belly binding to support healing after birth. Deborah will guide you in creating a postpartum plan so you feel confident, rested, and supported.

3:30pm – Sound Bath with Massage & Guided Rest Drift into deep relaxation with a restorative sound journey. During the session, Deborah will offer light touch — such as head massage, reflexology over socks, or gentle assisted stretches — to release tension and invite deeper rest. Aromatherapy blends of neroli and frankincense will be offered for pregnancy support, with calming jasmine, lavender, and chamomile for those nearing birth.

4:30pm – Restorative Ritual & Closing Circle

A final grounding ritual, with time for journaling, sharing, and gentle integration over nourishing snacks. Every guest will receive a curated gift bag. Spaces will be limited to 16 for an intimate, personalised experience.
