    —Mariana

    -Fernanda

  • “While reading, I felt like Juliana was there with me, walking the Journey with me and at my own pace. It is an experiential book.”

    -Jessica (E-Book The Sky Between Us )

  • “This book awakened much emotion in me. Made of words that carry the force of lived experience, it reminds us of something simple and profoundly human: 'Your feelings are not failure; they are communication'."

    -Mayra (E-Book The Sky Between Us)

Writer, trauma-sensitive yoga teacher, and integrative counsellor supporting women through pregnancy, birth, motherhood, and the many emotional layers of being alive.

With studies woven through psychology, counselling, pre & postnatal yoga, and yoga for anxiety, depression, and body image, Juliana brings together relational, body-based, and trauma-sensitive support for women navigating seasons of change, identity, and becoming.

AwakenLife Yoga was born from a deep desire to create more honest, human, and compassionate conversations around motherhood — the beauty, grief, overwhelm, tenderness, and transformation that can awaken through birth and mothering.

A space for storytelling, relationships, embodiment, social justice, grief, joy, and remembering you don’t have to walk this season alone.
