This course combines years of study, teaching, and hands on experience. I have been traveling to Women’s gatherings & events teaching and giving away free breast massage + education for the past 8 years with The Aerola.

The Areola was founded in 2005 by DeAnna Batdorff, my teacher and mentor as a grass-roots initiative to provide proper education and empower women around their breast, womb and lymphatic health.  The Areola is a passionate group of women committed to the path of empowering and educating women through body literacy on how to explore, map and understand the terrain of their reproductive systems & learn their symptoms and how to respond with holistic self care techniques. With thousands of women seen and supported this holistic care has provided an invaluable service to the Women in our community. In 2017, with DeAnna’s blessing, I brought The Areola to the Spirit Weavers Gathering, where it continues to be a centerpiece, supporting and educating hundreds of women each year.

I truly love sharing this work, it is one of my greatest passions.

$3200

$800 Deposit to Hold Your Spot

TICKETS ARE LIVE
LIMITED SPOTS AVAILABLE

Payment Plans Available

This intimate, in-person retreat is a deep dive into the body’s inner ocean; the lymphatic system. Through the lens of Ayurveda, elemental medicine and somatics, we’ll explore how breast tissue reflects our inner terrain — and how to support that terrain through intentional touch, nourishment, and care.

Together, we’ll create a container to reconnect with the wisdom of the breasts. Through guided lymphatic breast massage, holistic breast checks, foundational Ayurvedic teachings, hands-on medicine making and somatic movement practices, you’ll learn to understand imbalance not just as pathology — but as invitation. This retreat is a perfect blend of training and & self exploration.

What you’ll learn:

• The physiology of the lymphatic system and its connection to immunity, hormones, and emotional wellbeing

• The foundations of Ayurvedic elemental constitution and how it expresses in breast and lymph tissue

• How to perform lymphatic breast massage and holistic breast checks — both for yourself and others

• Nutritional and lifestyle tools to support tissue vitality and detoxification

• Herbal protocols for breast and lymph support, including hand-crafted oils, breast balms & salt scrubs

• The art of listening through your hands: how to read texture, tone, and subtle shifts in the tissues

Throughout the training, you’ll both give and receive lymphatic breast massage, hold space for other women, and refine your touch through direct experience and feedback. Each woman will complete a full hands-on session and assessment by the end of the retreat.

This retreat is open to anyone drawn to this work — you do not need to be a licensed practitioner. Whether you’re a midwife, doula, herbalist, nurse, lactation consultant, bodyworker, or simply a woman wanting to reconnect with her own body, this space is for you.

This is not a CEC-certified course, but it is a deeply embodied education in cyclical care and lymphatic wisdom — a foundation you’ll carry into your work, your practice, and your life.

You’ll leave with:

• Practical skills in lymphatic breast massage and tissue assessment

• A deeper understanding of your own elemental constitution

• Herbal body care tools and a personalized self-care plan

• The confidence to offer this care to clients, friends, and yourself

Come tend to the waters within.
Come remember what your hands already know.
Together we can uplift and support women in taking back agency over their health and vitality, one breast at a time.

As a certified INNATE Postpartum Care Provider and Apprentice Midwife, with more than 6 years of birth-work experience and over a decade of experience working with clients I have so much to share with you! My desire with this work is to help to weave community and support for Mothers, in service to Life all the generations to come. I want to create THRIVING health for our mothers and babies. I want Mothers to feel loved, cared for, supported and fully resourced so they may focus on raising their babies. With the right support and care a woman’s health can actually increase after birth, and we have the opportunity to assure her health through her menopause and beyond. This is my passion, and I am so excited to share it with you!

This course is based on my studies with Rachelle Garcia Seliga, CPM of INNATE Traditions and I am so grateful to have her as a teacher, ally and mentor in this work. Through learning about evidence based postpartum care, and truly tending to the physiology and psychology of Mothers and babies, we can create real change in the world, one family at a time.

Please reach out to me with any questions or concerns and I am happy to discuss if this course is right for you and your family!
