About Ayurveda
The Science of Life and Living Consciously
🌿A path to conscious living in health, harmony, and wholeness
Ayurveda, often called the “Science of Life,” is one of the world’s oldest systems of natural healing, with roots over 5,000 years old. The word itself comes from Sanskrit: Ayur means “life” and Veda means “knowledge” — together meaning knowledge of how to live wisely and well ... Conscious Living.
At its heart, Ayurveda teaches us that true health is more than the absence of illness — it is living in a state of harmony within ourselves and the world around us. It recognizes that body, mind, and spirit are deeply connected, and that well-being comes from nurturing all three.
Ayurveda teaches an understanding of our true nature as mind-body-soul BEings through an understanding of the qualities and tendencies we are prone to based on our dominant mind-body type or dosha.
Through simple daily practices, mindful choices, and awareness of Nature’s rhythms, Ayurveda offers guidance for aligning with your true nature, restoring balance, and living more consciously. It offers both timeless wisdom and a practical path for creating harmony in modern life.
About Me
MY STORY
🌿A Healing Journey Rooted in Resilience
Born in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, my early years were immersed in the beauty of nature. Growing up near the ocean and mountains, I developed a deep love for the natural world, adventure, and curiosity about life’s vastness. With a vivid imagination, I dreamed of becoming everything from an astronaut to an artist, always drawn to nature, movement, creativity, and the mysteries of the universe.
My passion for exploration, connection, and the art of applying science to life, eventually led me to the practice of Medicine. In the 1990s, I met my husband, Harry, during a hiking trip in the Rockies. Together, we eventually moved from Canada and built a life rooted in love, adventure, and shared values, raising two incredible children in Eau Claire, Wisconsin, while pursuing our careers and a passion for travel and adventure.
In 2008, a breast cancer diagnosis became another turning point in my life—a challenge I eventually embraced as an opportunity for growth and transformation. Viewing cancer as “the gift I never would have asked for,” I deepened my connection with myself, fostering harmony between body, mind, and spirit. I chose to view my cancer cells with love rather than fear and “spoke” to the innate consciousness of each cell, asking them to transform into a different form of energy to support the physical body. This journey led me to holistic healing practices and certifications in integrative medicine, Reiki, Laughter Yoga, and Mindful Change Life Coaching. In 2015, I left conventional medicine to follow a path that felt more aligned with my soul’s purpose.
Discovering Ayurveda felt like coming home. It bridged my scientific background with a spiritual approach to health, offering both personal healing and a way to guide others toward conscious living. Today, I weave together Ayurveda, mindset coaching, and holistic practices to help individuals realign, restore, and reconnect with their true essence—living in harmony with body, mind, and spirit.
As an eternal explorer, I seek to inspire others to embrace their unique paths with resilience, laughter, and JOY. My mission is to support others in remembering the wholeness of who they are, and to rediscover the beauty of living in love, peace, and freedom—together, growing, healing, and thriving.
