I’m Bronwyn Laurel,

a Nutritionist and Birth Doula passionate about creating optimal health in all humans from preconception through end of life. Through my work as a birth doula I have become particularly dedicated to supporting the health and nutrition of women in all stages of creating and nourishing human life.

My holistic approach to health is heavily informed by Naturopathic and Ayurvedic principles that address individual health through a broad framework of personal context and constitution. Nutrition is but one pillar of health among many others including environment, movement, interpersonal relationships, and emotional and spiritual wellbeing. It is my greatest joy to work with others to understand and address all aspects of health to create a life that nourishes health from all directions.
