Jelena’s Home Birth in the Deep Forest

Today on The Natural Birth Podcast we have Jelena Jelena is a mama of one from Sweden. She is a modern medicine woman, artist and mother to Nahuel. She’s also a mentor for women who want to reconnect to their cyclical rhythms, nature and the sacred. She lives some parts of the year in the Swedish forest and some parts of the year in Colombia together with her husband Omar Romero and their son. Together they weave the wisdom from the jungle in the south, with the Nordic medicines, through healing ceremonies, retreats and events. She gave birth in Sweden, in their cottage house, deep in the forest together with my friend and home birth midwife Sigrid and I was a small part of her story as I wasn’t far away that day that she birthed her baby which we will mention in her story today.
