The ancient art of Marma Chikitsa 🌿🇮🇳

I felt deeply called to travel to India to study this ancient Ayurvedic healing modality at its roots, with the intention of deepening my knowledge, expanding my practice, and continuing to grow in the ways I can support my Ayurvedic clients and Yoga students.

Marma Chikitsa, or Marma Therapy, is an ancient healing practice rooted in Ayurveda that works with marma points, vital energetic centres throughout the body where prana (life-force energy) flows. Through gentle, intentional touch and stimulation of these points, this sacred practice encourages the harmonious flow of prana, restores balance, and supports the body’s innate capacity for healing.

What an incredible honour it was to study one-on-one Anahata Ayurveda Rishikesh with two incredible Ayurvedic doctors, Dr. Shreejit & Dr. Rohit🙏🏼

My mornings were spent immersed in the theory and wisdom of Marma Chikitsa with Dr. Rohit, while my afternoons were dedicated to hands-on practice under the guidance of Dr. Shreejit. A special thank you to all of the lovely therapists at Anahata who so graciously allowed me to practice on them as I learned!

Beyond my studies, I had the privilege of receiving authentic Ayurvedic treatments throughout my stay, including many Abhyanga & Marma Therapy sessions, allowing me to authentically experience this beautiful art firsthand and deepen my understanding from the perspective of both practitioner and recipient.

Every day I enjoyed lovingly prepared Ayurvedic meals by the talented chef at Anahata that kept my digestive fire strong and thus my mind clear and open to receive. In Ayurveda, wellbeing truly derives not from any one treatment or herb, but rather, is woven into the way we eat and cook, in our daily routines or dynacharya, in proper rest, and in the way we think 🌱

I look forward to continuing to study, practice, and refine this beautiful modality, and when the time is right, to sharing its gifts with my community.

Thank you Anahata Ayurveda Rishikesh for the wisdom, the nourishment, and for making a place so far from home feel like home by treating me like family🥹🤍

A new chapter of learning begins 🇮🇳✨

I’m in India for the next few weeks, immersing myself more deeply in the study and practice of Yoga & Ayurveda.

My time will take me from Rishikesh to Pune as I continue learning from teachers and traditions that have shaped so much of the work I feel grateful to share.

I’m looking forward to being a student again…to listening, learning, experiencing, and allowing space for whatever this time has to teach me.

While I’m away, the studio will continue to be held with so much care by our wonderful team of teachers. 🤍

I’ll be sharing pieces of the journey as I go, and I’m already looking forward to returning home with new inspiration to weave into our practices together🙏🏼

Begins October 27th 2026🧘🏼‍♀️

LIVE YOUR YOGA is an invitation to explore the fullness of the practice, the philosophy, breath, meditation, self-study, awareness, intentional living & the ways we carry Yoga into our everyday lives.

This fall marks my fourth time facilitating this program at the studio, and it is always such an honour to witness the shifts, discoveries & evolution that unfold within the students who move through this journey. 🤍

Beginning October 27th, we’ll spend 7 weeks exploring the Eight Limbs of Yoga together through the Yamas & Niyamas, pranayama, meditation, mindfulness, self-reflection, mudra, Asana, somatic practices, sound healing & heartfelt group discussion.

This work is deeply meaningful to me. I often share the Yoga saved my life… but It was never Asana alone that transformed the way I relate to myself and move through the world, it was discovering the fullness of the yogic path and learning, little by little, how to live my Yoga.

SAVE THE DATE🌲✨

Peace & Pachamama returns to Algonquin July 15th-18th, 2027.

For four days, we’ll trade notifications for nature, to-do lists for the rhythms of the Earth, and the noise of everyday life for the opportunity to listen more deeply within.

Peace & Pachamama is an invitation for women to slow down, reconnect with the natural world, and journey home to their truest essence through ancient Ayurvedic and Yogic wisdom, sacred ritual, embodies practice, rest, reflection and meaningful connection.

2027 will mark our third year returning to Northern Edge Algonquin | Retreat Centre, and it’s become difficult to imagine a more beautiful home for this experience. Nestled within the untouched beauty of the Algonquin region, the Northern Edge is an earth-conscious, sustainably maintained, off-grid sanctuary where the distractions of everyday life begin to fall away.

No notifications. No endless scrolling. No pressure to be anywhere other than where you are.

After selling out last year, registration for Peace & Pachamama 2027 will open first to our retreat waitlist on Friday October 23rd. Those on the waitlist will receive early-access to registration and an early-bird discount!

Spaces are limited and accommodation types are available on a first come, first serve basis.

Joining the waitlist means you’ll be among the first to access all available accommodation options when registration opens.

🧘🏼‍♀️Want to join us in Algonquin?

Send me a dm with your email address and I’ll add you to the waitlist. You may also email me at [email protected].

I can’t wait to see what magic unfolds this year & would love for you to join me ✨

From Summer into Autumn: Your Ayurvedic Guide 🍂

Seasonal shifts can cause turbulence in the mind and body & Ayurveda says this shift from pitta season (late spring into summer) into vata season (autumn into earlier winter) is the most challenging transition of the year 🤧

These are a few simple practices that help keep Agni, our digestive fire, strong & that help keep vata dosha, the air and space elements within that are most easily aggravated this time of year, balanced 🌱

Here is to a strong, happy & healthy you as you flow with the cycles of nature 🌳

Much love to all of you who made it extra sweet 🍓

& that’s a wrap 🎶 🌅

Last night we bathed in the golden glow of a breathtaking sunset where we shared our final beach sound bath of the summer.

As always, Mother Earth became part of the experience by creating a gentle symphony that could never be replicated. The waves, the soft breeze, the birds, the distant sounds around us… each one woven into the magic of the evening.

When we practice outdoors, I always offer the same invitation:

“Rather than resisting the other sounds around you, invite all sounds into the sound bath”

Let everything be part of it.
Let nothing need to be different.

There is such a gift in witnessing people soften into stillness…especially at this time of year, when it can feel like everyone is trying to cram every last bit of summer into the calendar, already looking ahead to what comes next.

Sometimes, in our eagerness to make the most of a season, we forget to actually be here for it.

So it is an honour to create these little pockets of pause. To witness you breathe, soften, listen, and simply be.

Thank you to everyone who joined me on the beach this summer and trusted me to hold these sacred spaces with you🤍

While our sunset sound baths on the beach are coming to a close for the season, the sound continues in the studio 👇

Yoga Nidra & Sound Bath
Wednesday, September 2nd + 16th
