FW: Ft. Collins massage

[Guest guest]

Sonya;

This family is not willing to pay even a reduced rate package rate,

but they will pay a good doula rate I believe and I spoke at length

with your doula friend there who is now encouraged to do some

supportive warm oil applications on her client rather than have them

give up. They are not wanting cooking, they have family coming over

from India next week. The elder grandmother is just not fit to be

bending over with any massage.

 

So the birth doula is also very inspired to take the training in

Boulder in May! I explained, among other things, the value of

learning the full mothers ayurvedic home spa care both for best

results and for duplicatable, professional standards of care and the

AyurDoula reputation. In the same vein I have written the woman you

taught the massage to briefly from Oregon, and the woman now in Hawaii

Tovia gave partial instruction to.

 

In the line of this discussion, Kanyakumari school of ayurveda has

found that to offer individual modules of the training is not suitable

for good professionalism or student commitment ... so they sign folks

up for their ayurvedic classes for the whole semester or year. I

understand more Saraswati's guidance to do the sema at RMIYA in

Boulder now. It is such a dance - we want to offer what care we can

NOW is when it is needed for the moms. But if doulas are calling

themselves AyurDoulas and not knowing how they are not providing the

care this stands for, it does not serve.

 

Love,

Martha
