About Yasmin

Picture
Effath Yasmin is a leading International Board Certified lactation Consultant (IBCLC) & a biodynamic crainosacral practitioner (BCST). Her special interests lie in Infant oral and sucking dysfunction, tongue tie treatment & rehabilitation including babies, children and adults. Under her private practice, nourish & nurture is an outreach clinic for families seeking professional clinical lactation management, parenting counseling and craniosacral biodynamic treatment.

Yasmin serves on several national & international boards, committees and share their path & vision:
  • of advocacy, awareness and service for safe & supported pregnancy, labor, birth & breastfeeding; (BIRTH INDIA, IBLCE)
  • of spreading knowledge & education via global lactation online conferences; (GOLD LACTATION)
  • of providing collaborative professional networking platform for clinicians who work in the field of tongue & lip tie. (International Consortium of Ankylofrenula professional - ICAP)

Yasmin also spearheaded the much needed professional support group for clinical discussion on tongue ties. The professional group now has close to 1500 clinicians including IBCLCs', surgeons, dentists, pediatricians, ENT Specialists, and body workers such as craniosacral therapists and myofunctional oral therapists who work with families who are affected with tongue & lip tie midline congenital anamaly.

She writes extensively on lactation, tongue tie, parenting & biodynamic craniosacral therapy in several Indian print and online magazines. She is also serves on the panel of experts for 'Mother & Baby'. 'Mother's World', Baby Chakra among others. Her exceptional clinical acumen & skills and her deeply compassionate care makes her support 'invaluable' as marked by her clients. However she firmly believes the term 'expert' denotes how the contemporary world has moved away from traditional wisdom of instinctual perception to 'expert' view. The central role she therefore plays is to restore the wisdom of 'instinctual perception' to individuals & parents.

Her clinical research work has been published in the International Journal of Laser Dentistry (IJLD) about tongue tie and its treatment outcome and contributed chapters in medical textbook on the same subject in the "Fundamentals of Laser Dentistry."

She envisages a deeply compassionate model of care for mothers and the families providing holistic and integrative care bringing in her insights in nature and its healing in CranioSacral Biodynamics, Homeopathy, Bach Flower Remedies, Biochemic Cell Salts and Nature. She has special interest in wellness medicine and therefore strives to incorporate the central prinicples of wellness in her plan of care.

Yasmin lives with her family in Mumbai and believes in sharing and spreading the light of knowledge, for she believes in sharing is health and healing lies the spirit of life itself.​


In her words, "I am essentially an educator as I feel it. Since the time I can remember about my growing years with a head full of questions and more questions until a profound thing that happened to me ‘Motherhood’. The buzzing questions in my mind began to have answers. I am now on a road to revelation of life’s most essential answers through my role of being a mother to my 9 year old daughter and my work with mothers, babies, fathers and families.  This chrysalis of becoming a mother hasn’t been easy to me. My several miscarriages, my baby’s birth, breastfeeding formed an inevitable share of profound challenges that made me evolve as a human being.

The challenges around nursing my baby post a surgical birth and a bed-ridden pregnancy were questions which needed answers and unraveling them needed me to reach out for help. And I did just that and that changed my life. Some very beautiful people whom I met and connected with along the journey were truly God’s plan for me to know the purpose of my life.

Where once I thought breastfeeding should be simple and natural and all the new mothers will need is just some emotional support to get by and some practical help; I had not realized then that I had set out to explore an ocean of knowledge and depth of the subject.  My pursuit lead me to a wealth of knowledge for good health and healing. Along my way I become a La Leche League Leader which I felt I was called for and have counseled & worked with over thousand mothers as a volunteer. I began to observe deeper issues among these mothers and babies I was seeing in my private practice and this called me to acquire advanced knowledge on human lactation and therapeutic modality - craniosacral biodynamics. This path has made me feel deeply blessed to have become an essential part of the health care team to collaborate and work with other health care professionals towards better health care for mothers, children and families. Thinking about the pathway of Lactation Science & Living Science of a Human Body has been the most exhilarating and intellectually profound experiences of my life. I have become humbled by the complexity and power of what instinctual motherhood and the life force in a human being can transform.
​
While I continue to learn every day in my practice, I have been able to value these learning’s in my personal life as a human being which has bought along fulfillment and enrichment into our lives. I now have a purpose in my life through the prism of my many challenges of life as a woman, as a mother and as a human being.

I realize, although the enormity of the challenge sets a humongous task ahead. This I feel called for and I am committed."
