What is feminine form ayurveda?

Feminine form Ayurveda is soul wisdom.  It is about recognizing your patterns, your tendencies, and using nature and self-awareness as healer. 

Ayurveda’s core principles are found in the 5 elements of nature.  Those elements are air, space, earth, fire, and water which exist in all living things. The 5 elements combine in 3 unique ways called doshas – Vata, Pitta, Kapha.  All 3 doshas are inside every cell in your body.  You might have a tendency for a particular dosha but that is not the sole expression of who you are.  Ayurveda in its masculine form overly focuses on dosha, the do’s and don’ts, and food combining.  Ayurveda in its masculine form is rigid and rules based.  

Feminine form ayurveda knows that you are always changing, day to day, moment by moment.  It is being able to recognize when you go out of balance and knowing the ways to bring yourself back to balance.  It focuses on connecting with your body and honoring the inherent patterns you were born with.  It’s about embracing the changes and the cycles of life.  It’s the intuitive understanding women have about their bodies without self-judgment and expectation.  It is the uniqueness you are born with but also all of your unique experiences.

 In ancient lineages, women were the keepers of the soul wisdom, of the healing medicine.   It was an oral tradition passed down from woman to woman.  These women shared community and shared the healing wisdom which honored the interconnectedness with nature, the body,  the mind, and the spirit. 

Feminine form ayurveda is the ongoing, continual exploration of you.  It’s grounded in love, appreciation, and respect for the wholeness of you.

My Approach

Book a free consult

My work is rooted in Ayurveda and yoga therapy, guided by the belief that healing happens through calm strength—not force. Each person carries a unique story, rhythm, and set of needs, and I take time to truly listen so our work together feels supportive, personalized, and grounded.

Through deep listening, care, and compassion, I help clients reconnect with their bodies and cultivate steadiness from within. Rather than pushing for change, we focus on creating safety in the nervous system so the body can soften, regulate, and begin to restore itself naturally.

What I Work With

Many of the women I support experience chronic stress, anxiety, overwhelm, digestive discomfort, chronic pain, or a sense of disconnection from their bodies. Our work centers on gentle, embodied practices that support nervous system regulation, digestive wellness, and the mind–body connection.

Together, we explore tools that help you:

  • regulate stress responses

  • feel more at ease in your body

  • support digestion and energy

  • develop emotional awareness without overwhelm

  • access rest as a form of resilience

The goal is not to “fix” the body, but to help it remember balance.

Group & Community Work

Yoga and embodied practices are powerful complements to physical therapy and other healing modalities. In group settings, there is often an added layer of connection—where shared presence fosters grounding, regulation, and a sense of collective calm.

Whether in a therapeutic class or group experience, the intention is the same: to invite steadiness, build calm strength, and support each individual in feeling more regulated, capable, and at home in their body.

Private Mentorship

In private sessions, the focus is entirely on you. I guide clients toward becoming their own best teacher—learning to listen to the body, respond with care, and build trust in their internal cues.

Sessions may include gentle movement, breathwork, restorative practices, lifestyle guidance, and somatic tools that support healing and recovery. These practices are designed to empower you with skills you can return to long after our sessions together.

This work is for those who are ready to slow down, listen inward, and heal through steadiness—one breath, one moment, one rhythm at a time.

Meet Chelsea

As a young woman I thought I had it all together.  I had my dream job, was traveling the world, and was dating a wonderful guy.  I began having daily anxiety attacks, couldn't sleep, and felt disconnected from events happening in my life. Food became my enemy as I started suffering from food allergies and intolerances.  I was struggling to get through each day without breaking down. "I'm fine" was my standard response to anyone who asked how I was doing.  

 Suffering from past abuse and trauma I became an expert at pushing down feelings in an effort to just make it to the next day.  I was unable to express what I wanted or needed to others and to myself.  I was numb to emotions and sensations.  I was numb to what my body was trying to tell me.  The choices I was making were not getting me what I wanted for myself. I knew I wanted to feel better but didn't know where to start.  I didn't feel safe or connected to my body, my emotions, or in my relationships and it was negatively impacting how I showed up for myself.

I developed patterns in my body, mind, and soul that were necessary at the time to keep myself safe but were no longer serving me in the present.  Through Ayurveda, yoga, body work, meditation, and emotional and spiritual processing, I slowly began to release the imprint of trauma from my life.     

TEACHER AND GUIDE 

I believe every woman carries the innate wisdom to heal and rise into a life greater than she ever imagined. My work is devoted to guiding women back to that place of safety, joy, and embodiment—where body, heart, mind, and spirit move together in harmony.

As a public health professional, I’ve created and led workshops on stress, anxiety, depression, emotional wellness, and nutrition. I have learned that while modern medicine offers important tools, it often overlooks the deeper roots of pain—the trauma and abuse that shape how we live and feel in the present.

That is why I walk another path. With a Masters in Public Health and training as a Ayurvedic Health Counselor, Herbalist, and Yoga Therapist I blend modern knowledge with ancient wisdom. I share practices of Ayurveda, yoga, tantra, bodywork, meditation, herbalism, and yoga nidra as doorways to healing and transformation.

In our work together, you are not just learning techniques—you are remembering yourself. I guide you to feel safe in your body, to soften the old wounds, and to step into the radiance of who you truly are.

Healing, to me, is not just relief from symptoms—it is the journey of becoming whole, embodied, and deeply alive.
