Janelle Gullan from The Wild Orange Tree is an occupational therapist with a strong interest in women’s health and the ways we experience feminine rites of passage. Her passion is in nurturing and empowering women to listen to their own body so they can navigate conception, pregnancy, birth and ongoing mothering experiences with self-love, confidence and vitality. Janelle believes that our internal cycles and rhythms are a potent road map for these transitions; and the knowledge we have about, and the way we connect to, our pelvic space is another powerful tool for guiding us on our mothering journey. Our body, mind and spirit cannot be separated from each other and the challenges that arise through rite of passage need a holistic approach if we are to find healing and strength for our pelvic, menstrual and emotional wellbeing.
