My journey began as a result of my curiosity to get to the root cause of human suffering. In eighth grade I used to take my health textbook home (just for fun!), and as I read through the pages describing all of the things we could do to keep ourselves healthy, I remember thinking - "we don't have to suffer".
While I still hold true to this belief today, I have also come to realize it is not quite that simple. We are human and we are still in the process of learning how to heal the root causes of our suffering. Working as a Kinesiologist for the majority of my career in the traditional healthcare system allowed me to gain an understanding of disease diagnosis and treatment options. I also began to observe that there was so much more going on underneath the surface of each patient I met with that led them to be where they were with their health habits. There was something deeper that was preventing them from truly thriving in life as we are all meant to do. I began to see how many opportunities for healing that were being missed. Which led me to get really curious about how I could better be of service to the people I worked with. I knew there had to be a better option. A path that would lead to true health and fulfillment. My curiosities led me to study Hakomi, a trauma informed somatic approach to healing that takes the whole person into consideration (body, mind, emotions and spirit) where the body is your guide for identifying, processing and transforming emotional and mental patterns that are keeping you stuck, unhealthy and unfulfilled. You'll learn that your spark hasn't gone anywhere, it is just hiding underneath all the clutter! Studying the John F. Barnes approach to myofascial release therapy and completing 500 hours of trauma informed yoga teacher training with the Myofascial Yoga Institute of Canada opened up my mind far beyond anything I learned in traditional anatomy courses at university. Studying the fascia system of our body is an exciting new-ish science that is helping us understand greater depths of the healing process. Incorporating mindful movement, meditation, breath work and fascia release practices into your lifestyle will help you release old holding patterns so you can find relief not only physically, but mentally, emotionally and spiritually as well. In 2021, when I was journeying through a rough initiation into midlife and trying to understand my true purpose, I decided to study with the Debra Silverman School of Applied Astrology. My journey to becoming a graduate of her school led me to gain a deeper understanding of my own Soul's purpose, the gifts I bring to this world as well as the challenges I face and the Soul lessons I am here to learn. It helped me step into my power and continues to support me to live a life that is authentically aligned with who I truly am. I love to teach others the wisdom that exists inside of your own astrological birth chart so you too can find greater clarity about who you are and what life is trying to teach you. I love to learn! Can you tell? My latest love is the sister science of yoga - Ayurveda. After struggling with digestive issues since I was a teenager, only three weeks on an Ayurvedic cleanse helped me to balance my energy, clear up my digestion and feel more at peace with myself than I ever have before. Stay tuned as I plan to bring more of these teachings into the work I do as well! Combining all of these practices with my traditional training in kinesiology and chronic disease management has allowed me to develop a truly unique and holistic approach to health and healing that takes you beyond just getting by in life to adopting a lifestyle that allows you to create a life that truly fulfills you - physically, mentally, emotionally & spiritually! All any of us really need to heal is to feel safe enough to bring into the light what is really going on and the permission to course correct and act in alignment with our authentic selves. It’s amazing what can happen when you have the right supports in place. When you are held in a truly safe, compassionate and non-judgemental space, your healing is inevitable! |
I am holding a vision for a future where vibrant health and spiritual fulfillment are the norm for everyone.
It all starts with each of us clearing the way to find the unique spark of light that exists within ourselves.
