Birth and Postpartum Doula, Massage Therapist, Yoga instructor, Certified Lactation Counselor
Hello readers!
I’d like to formally introduce myself. My name is Laila Moore, I am the creator and CEO of Medicine of Essence, a wellness studio providing holistic services.
I am a full spectrum doula, former yoga instructor, and massage therapist. I absolutely love what do—I believe in love, nurturing, educating,
and spreading a joyful
experience to all.
My passion is to touch the heart of those I encounter by providing them with a peaceful experience.
I studied nursing at College of Southern Maryland, dreaming of becoming a labor and delivery nurse (like my grandmother). I always had a fascination with birth and the perinatal experience, just the fact that we, a combination of cells and atoms, could create another life was such a spiritual experience in my eyes.
While in college, I started my business, Medicine of Essence, which was formally hosting yoga sessions and selling handcrafted body products. Through hosting yoga sessions I got the pleasure to work with many postpartum mothers and prenatal clients that took my classes to either bring a sense of tranquility to mind and body, or prepare for childbirth. This was quite fascinating to me, in which I began networking and found my calling as a doula and later a Massage Therapist. My journey as a doula began in 2019, in which I started working under another doula who was my mentor. I fell in love with birth-work and decided to take my profession a step further by taking my postpartum training with DONA International and then finally certified as a birth doula with ProDoula. I obtained my massage therapist schooling with Northern Virginia School of Therapeutic Massage. I followed my passion—supporting people on the path to healing.
God works in mysterious way—My goals did not manifest in the way I expected, but it was even better. Im grateful I’ve gotten to work with so many amazing people who have ultimately changed my life and obtained much wisdom from. And I’m grateful to have the opportunity to support and inspire each person I work with.
