Welcome,

I’m Delphi ~ a devoted wife & mother, folk herbalist and holistic bodyworker specializing in women’s wellness.

I’ve been in service to women in many different facets since first crossing the the threshold into motherhood in 2007.

Shortly after the birth of my first daughter I felt called to support women in ways I was and was not supported throughout my own pregnancy, birth and postpartum journey.

I dove right in and over 5 years became a birth doula, la leche league leader, birthing from within mentor and placenta specialist and although I learned so much over the years of practicing and studying these ways, I began going through a major shift and heard my heart calling me to live a life closer to the earth.

I listened to that call and moved to Earthaven EcoVillage in 2013 and shortly afterwards, my love of the female body grew through 2 blessed pregnancies, following my intuition to go to massage school to study Maya abdominal therapy and giving birth two times at home.

My work with women is deeply nurturing and nourishing and weaves teachings and therapies that I’ve harvested over the last decade and beyond, most recently studying with the Arvigo Institute, Original Instructions, Tami Lynn Kent, Fertility Awareness Coaching & holistic breast therapies to create a truly one of a kind session.

Delphi lives with her family in a yurt on an off grid homestead in Western North Carolina and spends her days enjoying her homegrown Appalachian life, homeschooling her youngest 2 children, traveling when she can, lovingly preparing nourishing foods, wild-harvesting plants and making herbal medicines, sewing cloth menstrual pads, and delighting in exploring the wisdom of her own womb and sacred cycles. 

Her deepest gratitudes to all who have taught and supported her along the way

This is a very in depth and personal interview about my journey from hospital birth, to home birth, a clinical abortion to an autonomous at home pregnancy release and some of the ways I’ve integrated, shifted and worked to heal my ancestral inheritance for my children. This is a big share, so grab yourself a cup of chamomile tea and sit down when you have a listen.

On this episode of Hormonally Speaking with Christine Garvin, I share about the magic of Maya Abdominal Massage and Fertility Awareness Method. If you are new to either of these topics, you are sure to harvest a wealth of wisdom and wonder.

What People Are Saying

 

“ From the moment I walked into her blissfully calming treatment room, to the time I left, working with Delphi was amazing! I had never had an abdominal massage before and didn't really know what to expect. Honestly I was a bit nervous after multiple abdominal surgeries and currently managing endometriosis to let someone touch my abdomen. After meeting Delphi and with the explanations she gave before and during the massage, I was completely comfortable (physically and emotionally) at all times. After my massage I experienced my first menses since I was 15 that I did not need to take any pain medication!” ~ Jessica
