Heart of Gaia
Owning and Honoring Life's Seasons
Ceremony, Celebration, Centering
Menarche
An Entering Into
A warm, affirming welcome into a new season of the body, centered on belonging, self-trust and pride and letting go of embarrassment. Gentle ritual, meaningful words and small symbolic moments help mark the occasion in a way that feels personal and age-appropriate.
A gentle space to honor a pregnancy that mattered, without asking grief to be hurried, explained or transformed. Through remembrance, nurturing care and meaningful symbolism, this offers a way to acknowledge what was hoped for, hold what remains, and feel witnessed in the loss.
Includes gold milk locket if requested.
Miscarriage
A Resting With
Birth
A Reimagining
A deeply personal opportunity to revisit labor and birth in a way that feels safer, more supported, or more complete. Through guided reflection, symbolic action, movement, touch, or other individually chosen elements, the ceremony creates space to imagine and experience a different version of the journey while honoring the reality of what actually happened.
A restorative ceremony created to honor everything the body and spirit have moved through in pregnancy and birth or in becoming a parent. With warmth, nurturing touch, reflection and symbolic “closing” rituals, it offers space to be cared for, witnessed and gently gathered back into oneself.
Suitable for both parties in surrogacy and adoption situations.
Postpartum
A Gathering In
Lactation Cessation
A Letting Go
A tender way to acknowledge the end of a feeding relationship and the immense physical and emotional work it has represented. This ceremony creates space for gratitude, release and celebration as the body moves into its next season.
Menopause
A rich, affirming ritual marking a powerful change in the body’s rhythm and identity. Through comfort, reflection and a touch of regality, this celebration honors wisdom, resilience and the freedom of entering a new season of life.

Meet Jen
Earthside-welcomer • Education-sower • Experience-weaver
Jen is a midwife, doula, educator and gatherer of people who has spent years caring for others through some of life’s most tender, demanding and transformative seasons. She brings a calm, practical warmth to everything she does, whether that means supporting a new parent, teaching a class, guiding a ceremony, preparing nourishing food, leading gentle yoga, or creating a space where people can simply feel held and at ease. Her work is shaped by curiosity, creativity and a deep respect for each person’s own experience, with a strong instinct for making care feel personal rather than prescribed. At Heart of Gaia, that means weaving together support, education, movement, ritual and hospitality in ways that feel thoughtful, grounded and genuinely caring.
