Madre Wellness offers grounded, embodied support for people navigating burnout, transition, and moments of deep change
This work is for those who carry a great deal - in their body, work, families and communities - and are ready for a more sustainable way of being
Through embodied support and intuitive care, Madre creates space to regulate, reconnect, and move forward with clarity
About Madre Wellness
Madre Wellness is a community centered wellness hub founded to support people while promoting health equity and embodied leadership.
The work is grounded in the understanding that burnout, disconnection, and chronic stress are not personal failures, but responses to systems that demand too much without adequate care.
Madre exists to offer a different way forward: one that centers regulation, embodiment, and sustainability.
How the Work Happens
Madre Wellness works through experience‑based care, not information overload.
Support may include:
nervous system regulation and grounding practices
body‑based awareness
intuitive and reflective guidance
space for integration, meaning‑making, and clarity
Rather than pushing for quick fixes or constant optimization, the work focuses on restoring capacity — so decisions, boundaries, and next steps emerge from a more resourced place.
Who This Is For
Madre Wellness primarily serves:
those navigating transition
caregivers, advocates, and people in high emotional‑labor roles
individuals experiencing burnout, chronic stress, or loss of clarity
those seeking embodied support rather than purely cognitive or talk‑based approaches
This work is especially supportive for people who are capable, thoughtful, and deeply committed — yet feel depleted, disconnected, or at a crossroads.
About the Founder
Madre Wellness is led by Maricella Nayeri, a strategic public health and organizational development professional with over 15 years of experience across healthcare, education, nonprofit, and community‑based systems.
Her approach blends embodied and intuitive practices with trauma‑informed, equity‑centered, and systems‑aware facilitation — shaped by years of supporting individuals and organizations through complex change.
Madre Wellness is where professional expertise and embodied wisdom meet.
“I began this work through deep personal exploration and now I guide others out of chronic stress and cyclical resistance into embodied clarity and aligned action. My clients are leaders, caregivers, and professionals who want sustainable resilience, not temporary relief.”

We understand what it is like to navigate this journey of life and how necessary it is to have a strong network of support. We have found that at times, information we need is not always readily available which is why we have decided to create what we hope will become an expansive and ever-evolving resource for all within the Mke area.
