First and foremost I am a daily mamma warrior to my two wonderful boys! I am also a passionate student of the healing Arts and an artist at heart. I bring over fifteen years of experience in the Health and Wellness field to my practise. After undergraduate studies at Mount Royal and The University of Calgary, I studied Traditional Chinese Medicine in Victoria at The Canadian College of TCM. We were lucky to have learnt under some of the most sought after experts in the field. Over the years my passion for the healing arts has only deepened and I have continued my studies within TCM, immersing myself in various specialties. I also received my Yoga Teacher training at the Sivananda Ashram in Kerala, India. This was a four week intensive, residential program based on the Gurukula system, where teacher and student live together immersed in Yogic lifestyle. This is my life’s work, my thirst for knowledge within this field runs deep and the learning will never end.

 

My most informative teacher has always been my own healing journey, as well as that of my patients. My life path has been guided by chronic health problems since childhood, I know viscerally the challenge of living with chronic illness. I have been blessed with these issues as they have led me on a path of self discovery I am not sure I would have been on, to the depth that I have, without. I have a history of Allergies, Eczema, Asthma, Arthritis, and Alopecia Universalis (hair loss over the entire body). It is through Chinese Medicine, Nutrition, Yoga, Meditation and Naturopathy/Functional Medicine that I have found healing time and again. I believe many chronic illnesses can be helped through these modalities and I feel inspired when I think of the relief I can help bring to those that are suffering. This path is not easy and takes work on the part of the patient but I believe this is the gift of illness; connection with your true self and residing within your body as it desires.
