About Miriam
Hi, I’m Miriam and I want to tell you how I ended up here..
As a kid it wasn’t safe to feel and express my emotions. I got good at thinking my way out of my feelings and never letting anyone see my pain, even though I was suffering and really needed support.
I tried meditation which seemed to help, but I was using it as a way to get OUT of discomfort. It wasn’t until I found yoga that I started learning to be present IN my body’s experience, wether or not it was comfortable, without trying to change it.
I discovered the magic of listening to my feelings instead of avoiding them.
This newfound presence in my body is what really launched me onto my spiritual path, but it wasn’t a “woo-woo” path filled with rainbows and unicorns. I was slowly learning to trust my body and emotions, with the help of indigenous practices, plant medicine community and wise elders, generous with their wisdom.
I searched for a way to apply this wisdom to my life and discovered Acupuncture as a system of healing that looks at the mind, body and spirit as an integrated whole. I became fascinated with this integrated way of healing and started acupuncture school, becoming a licensed practitioner in 2012.
All this, and yet I still didn’t know how to feel safe in my body.
By that time I had done a lot of healing but I still felt awkward in my body and had a hard time speaking my truth, especially in relationships. I didn’t know how to embody my power as a woman and I guarded my heart in romantic relationships, afraid of losing myself.
The missing link I found was Tantric Yoga, which taught me that pain and joy can coexist, and struggle can be a pathway to power. The practices of Inner Yoga, Breath Work, and embodied meditation changed me in a way I didn’t think was possible. I released my body from shame and found the power living inside me that gave me the courage to be authentic in my relationships without hiding myself.
Today I mainly work with women, helping them see themselves clearly, heal through nervous system regulation, overcome the imprints of trauma and get un-stuck from unhealthy relational patterns. I also lead group workshops, training programs and retreats around the world.
Reach out to me, I’d love to hear your story!
“I could feel the difference after doing just one practice! I felt the breathing work calming my anxiety almost right away and it helped me surrender and open to experience the pleasure of my own body for maybe the first time. This is huge for someone who has experienced trauma. I literally haven’t felt like I’ve been in my body for years. I am so grateful to be able to have a new definition of sensuality where it feels healthy and like a living part of me!”

“I never thought that learning to breathe into my pussy could be so life-changing!! It was helpful to realize that it wasn’t just me that had these problems with not being able to feel much pleasure with sex, and even when I’m by myself. I’ve heard people talk about tantra and sacred sexuality, but Miriam really lives it and talks about it in a way that I can relate to. The way I feel now compared to the beginning of the program is like night and day. I’m a different woman!”

“I came looking for a high integrity Tantra teacher, and Miriam is the real deal. I valued her honoring of the feminine and how she taught me how to trust and listen to myself. Tantra teaches you to slow down, honor yourself and your desires, and to connect in a way that most of us don't know how to connect. This connection can heal early wounds that are sexually or non-sexually related. It is SO POWERFUL to reclaim this sexual energy as a woman. I highly recommend this work to others.”

“Doing this program and these practices was beyond powerful. Parts of me were awakened through the process that shifted my whole reality! My whole world felt different. It was one of the most profound and unique journeys I’ve been on and I am so grateful for this work.”
