Practitioner of the Month: Sheila Kamara Hay of Ecstatic Birth

Sheila Kamara Hay is the founder of Ecstatic Birth, a body-based, feminine-centered approach that supports women in reconnecting with the wisdom of the body, pleasure, and deep inner trust. Through her work, she helps women and practitioners explore a more empowered, embodied path rooted in flow, healing, and connection. On the Ecstatic Birth site, Sheila shares that she has supported and trained expectant mothers for nearly 20 years and birth practitioners for over 10 years, working with women in more than 25 countries.

Sheila’s work is deeply informed by her own lived experience, including moving through the spectrum from traumatic birth to ecstatic birth, which became the foundation for her mission to help others access greater trust, empowerment, and possibility in the body.

Featured Workshop: Kundalini Activation

Thursday, March 6

For her March offering at Dreams West, Sheila will be sharing a Kundalini Activation experience, an energetic transmission she describes as supporting the clearing of what stands between you and your life force energy. On her site, she explains this work as a path of surrender where participants lie down, listen to music, and receive, allowing the body’s own intelligence to guide the experience.

Sheila notes that experiences can vary widely, from emotional release, physical movement, and expanded awareness to deep rest, bliss, and pleasure, with each session meeting people where they are. She also shares that continued practice may support greater aliveness, alignment, joy, and connection to one’s path.

Sheila describes Kundalini Activation as an extension of her broader work in sensual expansion, embodiment, and supporting women’s connection to life force energy. She also shares that she has been exploring this modality since October 2022 with Anastasia Armanova, founder of the Purity Sensation lineage, and is among the first practitioners trained in it.

This is a beautiful opportunity for anyone feeling called to reconnect with their energy, soften into the body, and experience a deeply nourishing space for release, restoration, and expansion.
