Sometimes the heart needs a little extra tenderness.
Whether you are moving through grief, heartbreak, a difficult life transition, or emotions that feel too heavy to carry, The Sacred Heart offers a quiet space to slow down, soften, and tend to what lives within you.
This intimate yoga experience weaves together gentle supported postures, mindfulness practice, somatic awareness, and therapeutic insights for grief and the nervous system. You’ll be invited to notice how your experience is held in the body and we’ll meet it with stillness and compassionate inquiry.
What makes this experience unique is the small, intimate, and nurturing setting at the Healing Space in Britannia Beach. There is room here to soften, slow down, and let the tension melt away. With the support of restorative props, you can settle into deeply restful positions while bringing awareness to the heart space, chest, shoulders, and places where emotions reside.
Come as you are. Bring your heartache, questions, curiosity, and we will explore them as I guide you into a restful state.
This is a gentle reminder that you deserve care and attention. I invite you to come with what feels heavy into a supported space where it can be witnessed and tended to.
Saturday October 24th from 11am to 1pm
Located in beautiful Britannia Beach at the Healing Space #29 - 351 Copper Drive, Britannia Village.
Events - The Heartful Healer-Registered Counselling. Pilates. Meditation
$55 - Receipts provided for your extended health benefits.

Unmasking Anxiety -
Join clinical counsellors, yoga teachers, and good friends, Leigh and Naomi, for a nourishing two-hour therapeutic yoga journey exploring anxiety, the nervous system, and your relationship with it.
Having attended graduate school together and worked alongside one another prior to that, we've united through our shared love of somatic practices, mindfulness, and the on-going journey of learning to navigate life with an anxious nervous system. We know that anxiety isn't always something that we can simply think our way out of. Sometimes, we need to slow down, tune into our bodies, and discover new ways to feel grounded and safe.
Through guided reflection, and group discussion, we'll explore how anxiety shows up in the body and introduce embodied practices that you can take home and weave into your everyday life.
This is an invitation to pause, soften, and get curious about your nervous system, and reconnect with yourself in a supportive space.
No experience is necessary - just come as you are.
Sunday, November 1st 1-3pm
The Yoga Studio, Squamish
37776 2nd Ave, (Upstairs)

A Restorative Yoga Journey for the Heart
Join me for a two-hour nourishing yoga journey created as a mini-retreat for the heart. The intention is for you to have a quiet space to pause, breathe, and receive some much needed comfort and care.
This will be a slow and gentle practice designed to help you turn inward and settle into a sense of support. Through guided meditation, mindful breathing, and deeply supported postures using plenty of props, you’ll be invited to soften the body, quiet the mind, and connect with your heart.
Simply come as you are, in loose comfortable clothing, and allow yourself to be held, nourished, and taken care of.
This is a heart-based practice for anyone moving through heartache, disappointment, change, or just feeling a need for a little tenderness.
This is a chance to rest deeply, reconnect with yourself, and remember that healing doesn’t always require doing more. Sometimes, all that we need is a safe place to let go.
2 hour restorative yoga journey - Saturday November 24th 2pm to 4pm
$50 - Receipts can be provided if you have extended health benefits and wish to claim this expense.
Nestled in the cozy mountains in Squamish at the Yoga Studio downtown: 37776 2nd Ave.

Join me to slow down, breathe deeply, and reconnect with yourself beside the ocean.
In this gentle, restorative workshop, we’ll explore grief through the healing language of nature. Through slow, supported movement, mindful awareness, natural materials, and ocean-inspired imagery, we’ll create space to notice and tend to what we’re carrying. This class is designed to support you in finding moments of calm while moving through grief and life transitions.
You’ll be guided through “Where the Ocean Meets the Heart,” a mindfulness journey inviting you to connect with the rhythms of the sea and the wisdom of the natural world. Using the ocean as both metaphor and anchor, we’ll explore the changing nature of grief.
This workshop will include:
Gentle restorative yoga and embodied practices
A guided mindfulness journey: Where the ocean meets the heart
Nature based grief exploration and metaphor
We’ll work with stones, shells, and treasures from the shore as invitations for reflection and grounding.
Ocean visualization and reflective practices
Time for quiet integration and personal reflection
Because The Healing Space is situated beside the beautiful ocean, you’ll also be offered guided suggestions for spending meaningful time at the beach following the session, weather permitting. You might choose to walk, sit beside the water, gather a natural object, listen to the waves, or simply be still and allow the experience to settle.
This is a space to pause from the busyness of life and simply be held by the rhythm of the sea.
All forms of grief are welcome. Come as you are. Let the ocean soothe your heart.
Sunday November 29th from 2pm to 4pm.
Located in beautiful Britannia Beach at the Healing Space #29 - 351 Copper Drive, Britannia Village
