Conscious * Connected * Courageous
Conscious * Connected * Courageous
I am delighted to say that for over 30 years, my work has served to elevate the mind, body and spirit of so many wonderful people in my home community of North Vancouver, BC.
Whether I am teaching a class, counselling a client, or facilitating a coaching circle, my highest intention is to unleash the transformative power of self-love. You see, I believe the pathway to peace within ourselves, our families, our communities, and on our planet is through a conscious, connected, and courageous relationship with our Self. I also believe that self-love is an enlightened way of being and its attainment is possible through a dedicated and supported practice of inner-care.
Creating my own inner-care practice and journeying towards self-love has been the challenge of my life. It has required an intentional, daily commitment to heart-centered action, as well as the supportive reinforcement from family, friends, counsellors, healers, academic & ancient wisdom teachers, and a socially conscious community.
Although I value my formal education and training in counselling psychology, coaching, mind/body medicine, and my various yoga and fitness teaching certifications, the experiential school of hard knocks began when I became a mother. The opportunities for self-care disappeared and self-compassion was replaced with constant self-judgment. Motherhood compelled me to embark upon the most transformative journey a human being can take; the journey from the head to the heart. It is with reverence I acknowledge that my greatest spiritual teachers have been, and continue to be, my two children (a daughter in high school and a son in elementary school). I am also deeply grateful to be walking the path of a conscious parent in partnership with my high school sweetheart.
This journey towards self-love is a continual evolution.
I would be so honoured to provide support, guidance, and inspiration for your own personal journey.
As I like to say, "we may have different stories, but we share the same heart space."
