AwakenLife Yoga & Counselling is a space for women navigating pregnancy, birth, motherhood, grief, and life’s transitions. Through integrative counselling, somatic practices, trauma-sensitive yoga, and community, I offer support that honours your story, your capacity, and your pace.
I’m Juliana Salgado, an integrative counsellor, yoga teacher, and mother of two. AwakenLife was born from my own experiences of motherhood, grief, healing, and the search for spaces where we can bring our full humanity.
Drawing on my background in psychology, counselling, yoga, and perinatal wellbeing, I support women in exploring the emotional, relational, psychological, and embodied layers of their experience.
I also support birth workers, clinicians, yoga teachers, and other practitioners who walk alongside women through pregnancy, birth, and motherhood, offering trauma-informed education, reflection, and support.
