Mila Hyman | The Green Sage — Holistic Healing, Health & Conscious Living
Hi, I'm Mila
I'm passionate about helping women explore the deeper connection between their bodies, emotions and healing.
​
I believe symptoms are messengers, inviting us to turn inward, nourish what’s asking for care, and meet ourselves with more compassion and self-love.
​
The Green Sage was born from everything that has shaped me. The healing I’ve walked through, the questions I couldn’t stop asking, and the beauty I kept finding along the way.
I’ve always been drawn to things that make life feel more beautiful, meaningful, and alive. Food made with love, time in nature, creative expression, and the deeper questions of life and healing.
My life has carried me through some interesting places, from South Africa to Taiwan, Dubai, and now the sun-soaked coast of Portugal. Along the way, I’ve come to understand how deeply the places we live, the seasons we move through, and the environments we choose, can shape the way we feel.
Life here in Portugal has slowed me down in the most beautiful way. Living seasonally, close to nature and the ocean, has been both grounding and deeply healing. It has also revealed the hidden parts of myself I’m getting to know, understand, and heal. In many ways, it's become both the catalyst and birthplace of the work I’m now bringing to life at The Green Sage.
My path into holistic health began with a search for answers to heal myself.
For years my body was trying to tell me something. Hormonal chaos, gut issues, autoimmune struggles, symptoms that doctors couldn't explain, and tests that came back "normal." It was frustrating, lonely, and at times, frightening. But it was also the beginning of everything.
In 2020, I was diagnosed with Triple Negative Breast Cancer. What followed was one of the most profound and transformative chapters of my life. A journey not just of physical healing, but of coming home to myself, my body, and my own inner knowing.
Beneath the symptoms, there were deeper layers asking to be seen. Childhood trauma, family dysfunction, people-pleasing, self-abandonment, addiction, and all the ways I had learned to disconnect from myself in order to feel safe.
Over time, I began to understand that true healing wasn’t only about what I ate or which treatment, protocol, or practitioner could help me. It was also about learning to listen within. To the stories I carried, the emotions I had buried, the boundaries I never learned to hold, and the parts of myself I had forgotten how to love.
