For every woman crossing a threshold, there is wisdom to hold you.
welcome to sattva mama.
This is a sanctuary for mothers in the tender season after birth, and for women crossing life’s thresholds. A place where your body is wrapped in warmth, your spirit is nourished with ceremony and care, and your passage into motherhood is held as sacred.
It is in my heart that every mother receives the care she deserves.
When mothers are nourished, the whole world is nourished.
offerings
Ayurvedic Postpartum Care
My offering to all beautiful mothers or mothers-to-be is awareness of and support for your time after birth (the Sacred Window). I offer different ways as a postpartum doula for new mamas to be nurtured during this vunerable time.
Closing of the Bones Ceremony
A traditional Mexican healing ritual where the body is wrapped and held. Though rooted in postpartum care, it is also offered for any woman navigating transition or change. It is a ceremony of grounding, integration, deep nourishment and rebirth.
Yoga for pregnancy, birth and postpartum
Yoga to support women during all phases of life, and inspire on how to use yoga as a tool to experience freedom and nourishment during pregnancy, birth, and the postnatal period..
I’m Desiree, Ayurvedic Postpartum Doula and Yoga teacher
I care for mothers in the tender weeks after birth with practices rooted in Ayurveda and the wise woman tradition. In your home, I offer warm oil massage, herbal baths, yoni steaming, belly binding, healing yoga practices and ceremonies that honor and hold you as your step into motherhood.

words from previous clients
“My experience with Desi was truly beautiful. I felt so supported and cared for during the vulnerable time of the sacred window. Desi guided me to connect back with my body, that have changed so much. She was a great support mentally as well. The food nourished me so well. I am so grateful to have had Desi on my side.”
“I’m truly grateful the support Desi provided during my postpartum journey. Desi provided me a safe space and the practices we did together helped to remind me what a scared time those postpartum days are. She provided space for me to acknowledge and process emotions I might not have before. She also provided delicious and nourishing food that I know my body would have been missing out on had I not had her. I’m so grateful to now have Desi in my life and cannot recommend her enough for anyone looking for postpartum support and care. Love you Desi”
