With Nemah - Traditional Full Spectrum Midwife & Healer

Nemah is a travelling traditional full spectrum Midwife, from fertility and conception to passing, and everything in between, specialising in traditional home births. She has travelled the world with her children, and has assisted in over 2,000 births worldwide over the last 15 years. Currently Nemah is working on an aboriginal birthing documentary in over five countries which has given her a wealth of experience. 

Her background includes growing up with the guidance and teachings from her grandmother who was a traditional healer born in Mexico. Nemah takes pride in being a mixed ethnic woman, which has given her the ability to relate and provide services to a diverse number of indigenous women. Her practice includes traditional healing womb massages and 40 day postpartum bone closing ceremonies (an ancient practice for postpartum mothers, those with reproductive health issues, and for the overall health of women), as well as an ancient practice of purification and clearing for one's self or home.

Nemah also makes 100% all natural products from her personal garden to assist with the healing journey, including postpartum & prenatal products. As well, she creates custom protection jewellery using different shells, stones and feathers. Everything is done sustainably and with good energy, and raises money for postpartum care packages for indigenous mothers in need of support.

In this episode of the podcast, I dive into a conversation with this remarkable woman, where she shares about indigenous practices and ceremonies, about childhood trauma, including rape, about birth trauma and the road to healing, about the challenges faced when working within indigenous communities, and a whole raft of other soulful ventures.
