About Melissa Ayling
Blessings! I’m Melissa and I’ve got your back – and your front – in various aspects of womanhood.
From loss of identity to mood disorders, from fertility challenges to menstrual concerns and from menopause support to postpartum honouring, plus more.
I’m devoted to Sekhem Healing (Egyptian Reiki), Womb Hara Massage and Shamanic Womb Awakening.
I’m a proud mother of two boys, my husband calls me “nature woman” and I live by the ocean in Geraldton, Western Australia.
I have 10+ years of experience working with women and the feminine mysteries, 8 of which included being a Hypnobirthing Practitioner.
My experience is a fusion of formal education, workshops and solo learning but the greatest teacher has been my own healing journey.
Let me share my journey…
My Journey
I first began my healing journey in 2012 when I just couldn’t stand myself any longer!
In 2014, I became a mother, which brought its heights of joy, love and fun, but also its lows.
At times, it felt like a long-winded journey of groundhog day, over-giving and a loss of identity, leading to anxiety, depletion and burnout.
This struggle spread out over many years.
However, it was through my challenges that I learned valuable lessons to make positive change in my life.
I learned to listen to my body, honour my feelings and set boundaries to protect my mind, body, and soul.
Creating space for myself allowed me to release stuck emotions and restore my energy levels.
I nurtured my spirit through practices like Reiki, massages, workshops, meditation, yoga, ceremonies, immersing in nature and going on retreats.
At times, it felt like I was going around in circles, but I remained consistent in investing in my growth and doing the inner work.
I now realise that the consistency was key in helping me come back home to me.
Discovering womb work in 2020 enhanced my journey. It ignited my feminine essence of intuition, authenticity and creativity increasing my clarity, vitality and purpose.
Today, I can confidently say I feel the best I’ve ever felt in my life and this is what I want for YOU!
You just need to desire it for yourself just as much and know you’re worth it.
My why
Women are humans with needs too. We have our own qualities that set us apart from other genders, while still being equal to them.
We should never have to settle for being treated as doormats, domesticated beings or sexualised objects.
We have the capacity to live lives that are fulfilling, pleasurable and purposeful, just like anyone else.
Most women naturally embody feminine energy. We’ve been conditioned to believe the feminine is a weakness however it’s actually a source of strength.
Unfortunately throughout history some have felt threatened by this feminine power.
As a result, anything related to the vagina and womb space has been shamed, oppressed and stigmatised, causing women to become disconnected from their own power, pleasure and purpose.
It’s now time for women to reconnect and reclaim this sacred part of themselves.
When a woman does this she not only benefits herself but also contributes to the healing of her ancestors, both past and future, as well as humanity and Mother Earth.
