»THE MIRACLE OF LIFE IS YOU.«


About Nina-Gyana

My name is Nina-Gyana, and I am happy that you have found mindful mamas. As a certified GfG®-Doula, yoga and meditation teacher I accompany women during pregnancy, birth and motherhood.

It is my heart‘s desire to empower them in their womanhood and to surround them with love, warmth and care. For me, being a Doula is a calling, there is nothing more beautiful than supporting a woman in the process of becoming a mother, in giving birth, holding a sacred space for her and being present when a new life sees the light of day. My own pregnancy and birth experience have awakened this desire in me.

Rituals, circles, ceremonies and retreats, which offer women support, strength, good wishes and spiritual protection for their transformation into motherhood, are an important part of my work. It is my hope that women will come together as a tribe, reconnect consciously with Mother Earth and awaken within themselves the Pacha Mama, the Primordial Mother.

Mehr über Nina-Gyana

For many years I have been engaged in meditation and the life practice YOGA. My journey took me 2012 to Bali, where I met a wonderful teacher who accompanied me for many years as a mentor and shared his wisdom with me. Through him I came to a wonderful ashram in India, where I have been training in meditation for over eight years. My own pregnancy, which was a turning point in my life, has especially filled me with new inspirations and awakened the calling in me to teach and pass on the practice of yoga and meditation to others - particularly to mothers-to-be.

Yoga, meditation, rituals, visualizations and affirmations, have helped me personally, experience the journey of pregnancy in a conscious way and to prepare myself for birth. I am not saying that this is something a woman „has to do“, or that this is the only way natural birth can happen, but it’s what worked for me.

I also want to highlight that in many ways this was an ‘unlearning’, rather than trying to achieve to be something else or someone else, it’s more about learning to let go, to trust oneself, to be in connection with one‘s body, and one‘s instincts. To surrender to the primal force that dances the child into the world, instead of being cramped up against it, because of fears.
