About Renata, Founder of Her Sacred Cradle

​

Her Sacred Cradle was founded by Renata de Castro, an Ayurvedic practitioner, birth & postpartum doula & Jungian Psychospiritual coach, whose work sits at the intersection of physiology, psychology, and lived experience.

​

Renata’s approach is rooted in a simple but often overlooked truth: the body is intelligent, and healing unfolds when the right conditions are in place. Drawing from Ayurvedic wisdom, nervous system regulation, and depth psychology, she supports women through life’s thresholds — including menstruation, pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and hormonal transitions — without overriding the body’s natural rhythms.

​

Her work is informed by both training and personal initiation. Once disconnected from her own body, Renata found her way back through Yoga and Ayurveda — a path that shaped how she approaches conception, birth, and long-term wellbeing. Today, she works with women who are ready to listen inward, reclaim authority over their health, and move away from fear-based models of care.

​

At the heart of her work is a commitment to integrity, sovereignty, and true healing. Her Sacred Cradle was built to serve deeply and to contribute meaningful work to the world.

Her Sacred Cradle Values​

Health

At Her Sacred Cradle, it is believed that health is the presence of regulation, rhythm, and responsiveness. The body as an intelligent system in constant relationship with environment, emotion, nourishment, and meaning. The question is not “What’s broken?” but “What conditions are missing?” Health is something that emerges when the body is supported correctly — not something that can be forced.

​

Freedom

Freedom begins when a woman no longer hands her authority away.

This means freedom from:

• one-size-fits-all protocols

• fear-based health & birth narratives

• outsourcing intuition to external systems

I support women in understanding their bodies deeply enough to make informed, embodied choices — especially during vulnerable life phases like pregnancy, birth, and hormonal transitions. Freedom is not rebellion. It is informed self-trust.

​

Sovereignty

Sovereignty is the capacity to listen inward and act from clarity.

At Her Sacred Cradle, sovereignty is cultivated through education and  reflection. The goal is not to create clients who need ongoing guidance, but women who leave knowing how to read their bodies, honour their rhythms, bring awareness to their conditioning and behavioural and emotional patterns,  and respond intelligently to change.

Sovereignty means:

• trusting bodily signals

• making decisions aligned with their authentic selves

• reclaiming authorship over health and healing & thresholds of womanhood

This work returns women to themselves.

​

Her Sacred Cradle exists to support women through the many thresholds of womanhood—digestive healing, menstrual health, fertility, pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and the transitions that follow. This work invites you to gently undo conditioning, reconnect with your innate rhythms, and remember that your body is not broken—it is communicating.

​

This is not medical advice or treatment, but holistic support rooted in ancient wisdom and modern awareness—designed to help you make informed, empowered choices for your own well-being.
