About the Amba Method

Nourish Within, Thrive Together

Embodied Babes is a virtual gathering space for caring women who are tired of over riding and ignoring their bodies’ signals. This is for women who love movement, cherish their feminine essence, and want to feel more nourished from within while having a blast doing it!

Drop inside. Receive. Replenish your radiance.

Are you longing to reconnect with your body and radiant essence after pouring your energy into your family, career, community, and other commitments? 

Do you feel like it’s hard to carve out space and time to practice on your own? Or when you do, it’s hard to focus or go as deep as you’d like to go?

Embodied Babes was created for you to feel deeply nourished, find profound enjoyment through movement, and reconnect with your inner knowing and living wisdom. In this community you’ll: 

  • Feel a deeper connection to your body, your radiant light essence, and the earth . . . and have fun while you do it
  • Receive support, tools, and practices to help you replenish, ground, and come home to yourself over and over again.
  • Connect with the most incredible, supportive circle women on earth as we share our journeys and practice alongside one another.

So many women feel disconnected from our bodies and true radiance essence. The Amba practice brings us back home.

  • Montanna H, Amba Member

    I just want to thank you for the space you hold. Every time I show up to practice with you & the Amba community, I just feel like I want to cry–I feel such safety and the experience of being met and more. I spend so much of my life helping others, and your wisdom and your spirit and your connection is always revitalizing. To witness the power that you embody and how you’re able to drop in and hold the kind of space that you do for other women. The work that you offer allows me to go so deep into my soul, and every time I do work with you, there are major changes, catalysts and movements. I’m so grateful.

  • Lauren N, Amba Member

    Women are constantly apologizing for things that they don’t need to apologize for. When I practice the Amba Method, I don’t apologize with my body anymore. I extend and lengthen. I take up space. This practice teaches you how to own your space – physically and energetically.

  • Amba always feels like coming home. It feels as though a heavy veil lifted off of my being and the lightness that I once experienced has returned to me. Like losing one’s sight, things dim gradually over time. Life begins to feel less vibrant, lacking that certain something. The Deep Nourishment and Luscious Movement practices have centered and expanded my soul again. As someone who spends so much time in her head, dropping back into my tissues has brought me balance, peace and strength.

  • The ability Meghan has to hold space, honor an individuals timing, how it grows and unfolds with nature is unlike other encounters in the wellness space I have seen or felt. In particular learning how to best mother myself as I mother those around me. Having the tools and support Meghan has shared from her apothecary of offerings has been monumental in my life. Thank you Meghan for doing what you do, and for how you lead from example in such an honest way.

  • Maureen Matthes, Amba Member

    Meghan is masterful at guiding women into the inner world of the body. As a spiritual woman, artist, educator and long time meditator, l have found depths with myself that l had never before tapped into. Giving myself the time for the Amba practice is incredible. With Meghan’s guidance, I keep finding spaces to feel my beauty and power as a woman. I am finding deep ‘homes within homes’ within my body that is making my whole life SO much more enjoyable. It truly feels like a new journey for a lifetime. As a professional artist, my whole creative process feels deeper and more connected than ever before. I am embodying my own creativity and feminine essence on a much deeper level. I am deeply grateful to Meghan for her guidance and her embodied leadership which she exudes through walking and owning her own unique path.

  • Brenda Herrington, Amba member

    Embodiment has impacted my life by altering my life path. Despite a long standing meditation and yoga practice, I was disconnected from my body. The Amba Method has reconnected me to my body. I found forgiveness, acceptance, playfulness, and stability. This practice has connected me to my own joy, beauty, and strength. It has opened my heart. My own practice of Amba has transformed the words “Sacred, Wild, Loved” from words I couldn’t feel and didn’t understand to words I own in my heart with a deep yes, yes, yes! What I love about this practice is that it feels like sharing light. It is tremendously good news for a woman to learn about this way of connecting to her own body, of listening to herself, of hearing herself. Our bodies have much to say!

  • I can’t even begin to describe the magic and beauty of my Amba journey. All I can say as that this opening of my entire being is imprinted in me forever, like a treasure map that I can follow back to my beautiful, wild, sacred, loved Self anytime.

    Surreina Gallegos Gerbman Yoga & Meditation Teacher, Reiki Master
  • If you have the opportunity to work with Meghan and bask in her magic and wisdom, I highly, highly recommend you go for it. Working with her over 3 years ago so potently changed and inspired my life. Her deep connection to the body and its intricate relationship with nature weaves so beautifully into the embodiment practices she shares. Her Embodiment Circles are truly journeys, from which you return more radiant, feeling more loved by life, more in tune with your inner knowing… just pure magic. I whole heartedly believe there’s no better person than Meghan to learn about feminine energetics, womb wisdom, our primordial nature, and all things embodiment. She is beyond amazing and it has been such a gift to learn from and practice with her.

  • Through both the practice and community, Amba is a true exploration of sisterhood, play and divine femininity. Meghan’s nurturing space has gifted me a greater connection to my bones and ancestry! This has enabled me to connect to my lighthearted truth and live more joyfully through greater self-realization. I have learned to move in a way that is so natural to my spirit and so healing! I am grateful to Meghan for being a light on my path.

    Emily Nichols
  • The Amba practice has been life changing, eye opening and heart activating. I am continually inspired and softened by Meghan’s energy, and the way she creates and holds space.

Move, breathe, and drop in with a circle of women who are on the same wavelength as you.

It’s co-working, Amba-Style! We have monthly Work Like a Woman sessions where we learn to stay dropped into our body and breath while also becoming more productive and focused.

  • While we wish we could receive love and light for payment, currently we only accept major credit and debit cards, via a secure third-party payment processor, Stripe.

  • We love supporting mamas in their practice, and we believe that children and families are a vital source of love life energy. Presence and connecting to source energy aren’t just about what happens when we’re alone and in an isolated solo practice. Learning to stay grounded and connected in the midst of life activities can be incredibly valuable. You’re welcome to have your children around. Just please make sure you’re muted and when it’s your turn to share, and wear headphones.

  • It’s central to our ethos to create a safe, sacred space for you to unravel, drop inside, and express your experience authentically. For that reason, rest assured that none of our sharing at the end of our circle is recorded to protect your privacy and the sanctuary of our space.

  • Our monthly Embodiment Circles are on the third Tuesday of the month at 6 pm Pacific Time, and our monthly WLAW is on the first Tuesday of the month at 9 am Pacific Time. These are live on Zoom, where we gather together as a community and support one another in cultivating a devoted and ever-deepening embodiment practice. When you become a member you’ll have easy access to your portal within which you’ll find all Zoom links and information to join. In case you can’t make it to the live circles, you’ll have access to the most recent Circle and WLAW recordings within your portal.

  • Women join Embodied Babes for all kinds of reasons, from wanting to have a dedicated space to reconnect with themselves after pouring themselves into their family and career, to needing to replenish after feeling burned out, to dissolving the shards of the patriarchy that are creating rush patterns in our tissues, processing a major breakup, to feeling supported through a major life change, to learning new deeper embodiment practices in the company of other deep, caring women. 

    No matter what brings you to our circle, you’ll be supported in creating a practice and life that feels deeply nourishing to you from within. 

  • Just like women come to us from all kinds of backgrounds and for all types of reasons that ultimately lead them to this practice, they also come into our community from all over the world.

    If you can’t make it to our live Zooms because of your time zone, the recordings of our gatherings are posted inside of your member portal, so you can take them anytime. That said, we’ve found that women find the live experience of the circle so powerful that they often join live no matter what their time zone.

  • In an ideal world we would be gathering weekly in person around a fire or in a lush garden. But that would limit the geographical location of who can participate. Through the magic of Zoom, women all over the world can gather, practice together, and become more embodied. You can easily access the circle Zoom link inside of your portal, and there are plenty of Zoom tutorials available online if you need help.
