Women’s Work
Womens Work for me personally means (re)discovering the wild woman and her cyclical nature. The feminine kinship with Wilderness and Shadow: this is woman’s rewilding. Our minds and bodies are landscapes, inextricably connected with the Earth, Moon, plants and other animals. After millennia of suppression this ecofeministic work is radical and vital. Profound yet mundane and pragmatic, interwoven with our everyday.
In women’s circles around the fire we gather and learn again to share and listen, to trust each other and to know our inner and outer tides & workings. Honest and free – from patriarchy and conditioning, beyond prejudice.
Mythology gives us direction, stories root and connect us. The circle is intimate and holds space for personal themes, but in it’s simplicity together we also explore grand topics: darkness, animism, archetypes, rites of passage, blood mysteries, sexuality, magic, sisterhood, ageing and wild parenting. Everyone who identifies as woman, all ages and backgrounds are welcome.
I am a doula and fascilitate womens circles, classes and ancestral skill share gatherings – in all of which Rewilding is pivotal.
Birth Doula
Womb cycles, conception, pregnancy, birth – the womb is the rhythmic source of life, death and rebirth. She connects us to the Earth and Moon, to transformation & wisdom. Pregnancy, wild motherhood and early childhood hold my love and keen interest. Out of my passion for this initiation into a new lifephase for both mother and child, I became Doula. A sister who since ancient times holds the sacred space for mother, partner and child in this rite of passage.
As doula I provide physical, emotional and spiriutal support throughout pregnancy, during and after chidbirth, wherever and however you choose to give birth. In a holictic way I can give you guidance and help you prepare: together we’ll dive into the knowledge of what goes on withing yourbody and mind during pregnancy and create your personal birth plan with all your wishes, but also with practical excercises and creating ceremony together I can help you to navigate and root this special time into connection and meaning. My main task is to be there as a friend and sister at your side.
What I Offer
– Concise information about pregnancy and birth & personalized prenatal support
– Personal birth plan
– Ceremony: creating body and soul centered ceremony together – for the mother, both parents or an intimate circle of friend and family to welcome the unborn child!

“We give birth through our instincts, and we give birth to our instincts. We give birth to our capacity for instincts, which will match us perfectly with our babies, who are, and always will be, instinctive creatures. May we all be blessed through instinctive birth.”
