Becoming an Ayurvedic Postpartum Doula is a profound way to support mothers through one of the most raw, tender, and transformational moments of their lives.
The postpartum period cracks a woman open—physically, emotionally, and spiritually. She needs deep nourishment, unwavering support, and a circle of care to hold her as she transitions into motherhood. Unfortunately, in modern culture, this sacred time is often overlooked, leaving mothers depleted and unsupported.
You can be the one to change that.

🌿 Use Ayurvedic postpartum protocols to deeply nourish and heal mothers
🌿 Support the nervous system with herbal remedies, warm foods, and sacred touch
🌿 Implement traditional postpartum healing practices from the Wise Woman Tradition
🌿 Create a postpartum sanctuary that allows mothers to rest, rejuvenate, and bond with their baby
🌿 Build confidence as a doula and deepen your connection to ancient healing wisdom

✨ Monthly live mentorship sessions (Kriya, Meditation, Q&A) for 4 months

Satsang, Kriya and Meditation
In Ayurveda, Satsang comes from Sanskrit: sat meaning “truth” and sanga meaning “in the company of.”
It refers to gathering with others in the presence of truth — whether that truth is shared through wisdom teachings, stories, questions, meditations, or silence.
In the Ayurvedic tradition, Satsang is a deeply nourishing practice for the mind and heart, as the company we keep (satsanga) profoundly shapes our thoughts, our inner clarity, and ultimately our wellbeing. For birth workers and mothers alike, it’s a way to come back into alignment, to be witnessed, and to draw strength from shared wisdom.he way you tell your story online can make all the difference.

“After reading the course description, I knew this was the training for me. Every class session was beautiful, filled with heart and truth. The Ayurvedic wisdom and the knowledge and experience of our teacher Dani and many other guest teachers. The self paced learning made it very achievable and allowed space to reflect, revisit and digest. The learning platform was easy to use, engaging and created a sense of community.
The skills and knowledge learned on this training will last me a lifetime and for generations to come as I share and practice what I have learnt. The ripple effect of tending to these new mamas with my training, leaves a lasting and profound effect on them and their children. We are part of the loving change for the next generation and I couldn’t be more exciting to be part of it. Working as a Ayurvedic postpartum doula is so rewarding and I can’t rate this training with Soma-shakti highly enough.”
