I am an Educator, Herbalist and practitioner of BioEnergetic Medicine with 35 years of experience in the field of holistic health, including over 27 years working as a licensed naturopathic doctor. I live on our family farm, where I grow and handcraft many of the herbs used in my work.  A natural oasis, the land is rife and abundant with healing plants, trees and wildlife. I am grateful to the spirit of this land and its people, and the care of my family and extended community in helping to steward this land using regenerative and earth honouring principles for over 40 years. A lifelong dedication to my rural roots inspires my commitment to real food, sustainable food systems and the care and restoration of the land upon which our food and medicine grows. Food is Medicine. Care of the land upon which our food grows is central to the health and wellbeing of our planet, our communities and ourselves. 

 

Experiencing a health crisis at the age of 18 brought me face to face with a deep trust and knowing that the body can heal. This conviction was like a rock, a stronghold. It was unshakeable. Those early experiences led me on a life long quest to learn and experience more deeply so that I could help others and offer them support on their own healing journey. My life has been devoted to this learning. 

 

Paradigms in health continue to evolve. The omnipotence of conventional models continues to crumble. At the same time, the pressures of the modern world on our physiology are taking their toll. We are reaching a crisis point in the evolutionary mismatch between what our modern lives dictate and what our bodies and souls most deeply need. We are waking up to our responsibility as co-creators in our health and in our world.
