What We’re About
Birthright Wellness was created to be a space where you and your healing come first. Our founder created this space not only to advocate for rest as ritual, but to also remind us that wisdom surrounds us and wisdom is within us. As we learn, unlearn, and peel back the layers, we discover the innate wisdom that exists without projection and ego. Here, you can explore the stripped version of your self, falling more deeply into your experience and everything that makes you whole.
For You
What does it feel like to be completely at home in your body, to lean into and trust your innate wisdom? That feeling, that’s what we’re here to help you with. In a world that fantasizes productivity as an indicator of success, we’re here to help you find rest as a revolutionary act. Find ease in slowing down and allow space for your practice to become ritual.
By Us
Owned and led by a Black woman, Birthright Wellness helps you create a holistic environment for your self-care practice. Everything is curated with you and Spirit in mind. With affordable, thoughtful offerings, your rituals can be carried out without the hassle.
For Community
Your support helps make our offerings free or of reduced cost to others. We realize that self-care and mental health services are a luxury and privilege. We happily help in easing the burden, if any, for our family, friends, and community.
Meet Our Founder
Aja Lauren, MPH
Certified Yoga Instructor & Birthworker
My name is Aja. I’m the founder of Birthright Wellness, but more importantly (at least to me), I’ll also be your yoga instructor, doula, and/or coach. How exciting!
I hold any opportunity to connect with one’s Self as a deeply sacred one. Not only is it an opportunity to align Mind, Body, and Soul, but it’s a chance to connect to something higher and deeper at the same time, something vulnerable, ecstatic, and beautiful. Experiencing this alignment brings us back to true harmony.
I’ve always been in awe of our humanity. At times, it can seem seem so fragile while other times, our humanity can be as resilient as the rising phoenix. There is freedom in allowing ourselves to witness our humanity in all its glory, the beauty, pain, stillness, vulnerability, courage, and strength. My goal is to facilitate a space where you can explore this too, feeling safe, informed, and empowered. I consider it a privilege to guide people through their own movement and spiritual practices. Yoga, Birthwork, and coaching are deeply individualistic and personal. I honor that philosophy with each of my clients.
In my own reflection, it became obvious that accessibility to wellness is driven by capitalism. As I continue to learn on this journey, I aim to help make healing modalities as accessible as possible. Though, I do charge for my services, this supports me in offering my services at reduced or no cost for other groups. Being well is everyone’s birthright, and I can’t wait to support your birthright journey!
With Immense Gratitude,
Aja Lauren
