About
Becoming Mother™
What is Becoming Mother™?
Becoming Mother is the guiding philosophy of our holistic care. Every offering arises from the philosophy of Becoming Mother™ — the belief that “mothering” is not only about birth, but about the continuous act of becoming: becoming whole, becoming aligned, becoming deeply connected to one’s inner wisdom.
Where healing becomes a journey home
There’s a moment when a soul stops searching for love and becomes the source of it. At Divine Journey, healing begins with presence — a listening, a remembering, and a deep honoring of the whole woman. We bridge the science of modern medicine with the timeless wisdom of Ayurveda to create care that is both grounded and sacred, clinical and intuitive.
Here, true healing is not something given, but something reclaimed. It’s a partnership built on trust, compassion, and attunement — where every threshold of womanhood is met with care that lasts.
Viji Natarajan, Founder of Divine Journey
Motherhood is at the heart of my calling—both as soulful experience and as the source of lasting wellness for generations. Divine Journey arose from a passion to serve, a devotion to the wisdom of Ayurveda, and a commitment to walking with women through every threshold of transformation.
Through infertility struggles, the joy of birth, and the quiet personal rebirths women experience, I have come to see that honoring the mother—within and without—is the foundation of true wellbeing. My life's work is guiding women toward healing rooted in compassion and modern clinical insight, redefining health and birth as sacred, powerful, and deeply personal.

Dr. Jan Rydfors, M.D.
I have worked with Viji at Divine Journey for many years and have had the privilege of collaborating with her on a number of mutual pregnant patients. I am consistently impressed by her expertise and exceptional approach to maternal health achieved by her unique integration of advanced clinical Ayurveda and evidence-based medicine that complements and enhances the medical care I provide. Viji, being a solid doctorate-level Ayurvedic practitioner along with DONA Certified Doula training, Safe and Sound Protocol certification and training in drug discovery, makes her a highly skilled integrative practitioner with a deep understanding of the complexities of pregnancy and the birthing process. Viji is one of the few people I have worked with who is able to effectively bridge the gap between conventional medicine and holistic wellness and I am always impressed with her dedication to the emotional wellbeing of the person she is working with. She has wonderful positive energy! Due to my experience working with her, I have great confidence in her ability to support and empower any pregnant woman who wants to have a transformative and healthy pregnancy. I therefore strongly recommend Viji to any woman who is seeking and enthusiastic, comprehensive and integrated care for her pregnancy.

It is a privilege to write in strong support of my colleague and good friend, Viji Natarajan who has distinguished herself as both an exemplary Doctor Level Ayurvedic Practitioner and a dedicated women’s supporter in preconception, prenatal care, birth and in the postpartum setting.

I have witnessed her deep commitment to holistic patient care over the last 15 years, her expertise in traditional healing and strong knowledge base her advocacy for women’s health and unwavering support through stressful situations is amazing. During our times together in labor with our mutual clients, Viji shows not only her compassion for others but she never seems to tire. She is also very adept at collaborating across disciplines, ensuring that women’s health needs are heard and addressed so that they receive whole-person care with sensitivity and choices. Thank you Vji for all that you do. I feel you are a person who has untold wisdom, generosity of spirit and can uplift others just by smiling. Forever in my heart.

It is my distinct professional pleasure to offer this strong recommendation and statement of support for Viji Natarajan, an exceptional Doctor Level Ayurvedic Practitioner and Certified Practitioner. As a pediatric dentist who routinely supports families through the early stages of infant care, I have had the privilege of collaborating with Viji and referring many of my breastfeeding patients to her. I have witnessed firsthand the profound and positive impact her work has on both mothers and infants. Viji occupies a vital role in integrative maternal and infant health. She expertly combines deep traditional Ayurvedic wisdom with modern, evidence-based approaches to guide mothers through the transitions of conception, birth, postpartum recovery, and — importantly — optimizing breastfeeding outcomes. What distinguishes her is her ability to unite clinical understanding with genuine, intuitive care. She develops personalized wellness plans that may include tailored herbal support, nutritional strategies, and lifestyle practices that help mothers recover, restore balance, and sustain vitality — all of which directly influence the breastfeeding relationship and the infant’s well-being. In my professional experience, Viji’s work complements and extends the scope of conventional healthcare. Her focus on foundational wellness, hormonal balance, digestion, and maternal resilience addresses needs often left unmet in traditional care models. The families I refer to her consistently report improved breastfeeding experiences, faster recovery, and an overall sense of deeper support and empowerment. I trust Viji Natarajan implicitly with my patients. Her integrity, deep expertise, and commitment to excellence make her an invaluable colleague and a leader in her field. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking comprehensive, evidence-informed, and compassionate maternal support.

I have been working with Viji for years and it is my feeling that she solves things that other providers can't even understand. She is a mixture of intuitive and evidence based practice all mixed in one! Over the last 8 years I have seen her hands-on approach heal bodies from infection, and heal bodies from pain. Her approach has been gentle and thoughtful. I have enjoyed working alongside her.
