Hi, I’m Gauri Lowe
I am passionate about bringing a Sacred awareness to Women’s Healthcare. As a medical doctor I soon became frustrated with a very limited set of tools and a very misguided approach to women’s wellness.
After the homebirth of my first son, I noticed a vast difference in the gentle, conscious approach to birth and postpartum compared to the practices and attitudes I found in the hospitals and clinics.
I knew every women deserved a more sacred approach at this important time in her and her families life.
I studied herbalism, Ayurveda, functional medicine, Vedic philosophy and consciousness to understand how to bridge the gap and bring women the medicine they deserved and I feel yearn for.
This bought me to Womb Wisdom as Medicine as I realised the profound healing we each carry in our own womb wisdom and the intelligence of the design of Mother Nature.

Testimonials
Thank you for all your efforts Gauri. For putting forward women’s health the way you do and for being the most supportive human being I know when it comes to birth, motherhood and postpartum. I have never met anyone like you and I am honoured to have you in my life. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Our conversation was a major eye-opener and made me regain some of my fading beliefs that our body is magical at healing and taking care of herself provided we just actively listen to and nurture her.
I really like how you enthusiastically and patiently educated me on various topics surrounding female reproductive health that I was unaware of. I felt very safe and comfortable asking questions that I thought were rather silly or unnecessary. Until I met you, I never thought an appointment with a gynecologist could go smooth and frictionless without any dismissal of my feelings and opinions. I like how you have a very sacred and holistic approach towards managing womb health rather than a very rigid approach that is just backed by “science”.

Dr Gauri not only gifted me with healing balms and remedies for my first home birth but she also empowered me to have my second home birth Unassisted, Untainted and Unimaginably sacred...
Her passion for not just birth, but for the sacred space we hold as woman is a legacy in itself and needs to be shared with all women of the world.

Gauri, it is such a beautifully curated course - my wish is that every mama, who unfortunately neglected her postpartum healing the first time because of society's expectations, would have access to and soak in this course.
From the beliefs you communicate, the practices you suggest, all the way to the understanding of the magical role herbs play in our healing, it is quite phenomenal.
This wisdom will be cherished for many moons especially those during my own postpartum journey.
I truly feel both lucky and grateful to have crossed paths and to be able to learn from you as I prepare for my initiation into motherhood, thank you thank you thank you.

Thank you Gauri for the breasts and sacred course, I think that helped my body align with what it’s meant to do for my baby. Visualization of food pouring into my baby has been so helpful as well and taking care of my boobies and letting them free whenever possible leaks or no leaks.. Bras are the evil of breastfeeding; it really does affect how they feel and supply. And thank you to all the special ladies in for the help and support, if it wasn’t for you guys I would have been bullied into exclusively giving formula - thank goodness I didn’t and kept latching her regardless.
