WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT
Embrace the Mother is born to hold a safe space to be present with yourself, find your voice as a woman, embrace what being a mother means to you, and reconnect with your intuition and vitality.
Motherhood is a powerful rite of passage that may shake your identity deeply, confronting you with joys, uncertainties, and grief and opening you up to a new understanding of what love is.
The invitation to show up vulnerably, be seen and witness to others, and embrace the shadow’s aspects is held through yoga and breathing sessions, embodied sacred womb awakening practices, Ayurvedic wisdom, and moments of sharing as we sit in a circle.
The beauty of Yogabee Villa, combined with a natural landscape to explore and nutritious food served with love by La Mama Gaia will replenish your soul as we move deeper into this beautiful process of Resting, Recharging, Reconnecting
Think what would feel like to have the opportunity to:
-
Carve a space for yourself, away from your daily routine, that more often than not leaves you feeling disconnected from yourself
-
Connect with other women as you reconnect with your own essence as women and mother
-
Be able to show up authentically in a space that is held to allow you to share not only the immense joy that motherhood brings to your life but also the challenges that you have been experiencing and perhaps hardly find space or the right to express
-
Reclaim your own vitality and full up your own cup so that you can come back home feeling that you now know how you can both give to yourself and to your children and family
-
Rethink to your experience and have the possibility to celebrate your choices and your transformations
-
Embrace the wholeness of who you are and who you are becoming
-
Reconnect with Nature and with a slow paced way of moving through the day

OMBRETTA DETTORI
An Ayurveda practitioner, yoga teacher, yoga therapist, birth and postpartum doula and a nice person to have around
Ombretta is one of those people that when you meet her you feel suddenly calm, and happy :-) Luckily for us, apart from her warm Italian personality she has also specialized in areas that are so helpful for us when we are on our pregnancy and motherhood journey. When pregnant she will support you as a doula, you can visit her for a relaxing massage, she will share with you wisdom of Ayurveda with nutritional advice and simple daily practices, and you can join her for a gentle prenatal yoga flow. During motherhood journey she can step in as a postpartum doula with relaxing and healing treatments, help your body regain its strength using yoga therapy, support with Ayurveda nutritional advice and so much more.
Kasia met Ombretta in one of her teacher trainings, and since then their journeys crossed each other all the time. So it was also natural that when Kasia was pregnant, she came to Ombretta for all the goodness.
KASIA POKROP
Yoga teacher, HypnoBirthing & Spinning Babies Childbirth Educator and a slave to two monkeys at home
Originally from Poland, Kasia landed in Amsterdam for good in 2008. Her journey into birth professionals world started from her yoga path and pregnancy with Lily. Coming from a country where birth is highly medicalized she dreaded a natural birth, yet gave it a try with proper preparation and was shocked how good it can be. She wanted to share it wide with other moms-to-be, so they are not scared anymore, like she was. After a while of talking to pregnant strangers she realized this is not the way ;-) So she trained in prenatal yoga, HypnoBirhting and recently also Spinning Babies methods.
Being a mom is not a walk in the park, so it motivates her even more to support other moms and moms-to-be on their pregnancy and motherhood journey. We don't have to do it ourselves, and even though it is normal, you don't have to suffer, you can actually help yourself and enjoy the ride.
WHAT OTHERS SAY
I recently attended a Mamamoon yoga retreat and can highly recommend both the retreat and the yoga classes/workshops. Everything was wonderfully organized and setup for a weekend full of yoga, health, connecting (with yourself and others) and enjoyment.
Kasia, and others involved are great at what they do and I am fortunate to have experienced it!
Looking forward to attending future workshops and retreats!
