You may already know that the word Yoga comes from the Sanskrit root yuj, whose meaning is junction, connection, union, integration...
The search for meaning in life and for well-being are inherent quests in all of us, consciously or unconsciously. Yoga has been fulfilling these quests for thousands of years. In essence, yoga promotes holistic integration, allowing the practitioner to become the physical, mental, emotional, and harmonious entity that is a person’s true Being.
Note that Yoga is not just physical work, but a deep involvement of all levels of one’s Being.
In accordance with my personal goal of self-unification and integral healing, I offer private and semi-private yoga classes. I believe in intimate and safe work as a facilitator of the great transformations desired by those who seek Yoga.
Yoga is for everyone, without any restrictions! As I said, it's not exclusively a body work. In fact, much of the success of the practice comes from experiencing sensations, and every living being can experience sensations.
My mission is to make it possible for everyone to benefit from this practice, which is why I am certified in Accessible Yoga, Adaptive Yoga and Pre and Post Natal Yoga. I work with seniors, pregnant women, people living with disabilities and trauma victims (Trauma Sensitive Yoga).
If you have a body and you breathe, then Yoga is for you!

Functional Yoga for Workspaces
Helping people has always motivated me. During the decade that I worked as a lawyer, I didn't find much space to serve others to the extent that I really wanted to.
After earning my Yoga certification (YTT 200), I decided to seek new studies within the domain of holistic and somatic practices. I have reached the Master's Level (3a) in Reiki, thus allowing me to apply Reiki in person and remotely, to heal and harmonize one individual or a large group of people (Planetary level).
The word Reiki comes from the union of the syllables REI and Kl.
REI means universal energy, the essence that permeates and maintains all things.
KI is the life force energy that maintains our physical body, flowing through the chakras and meridians.
When these two energies meet, that is, the Cosmic energy with our physical being, Reiki is formed.
Reiki can be combined with any other therapy, allopathic medicine, homeopathy and other treatment modalities, thus enhancing and amplifying its positive effects. Reiki is not a substitute for medical treatment or prescribed medication.

The Therapy
The term "Bach Flowers" refers to the group of 38 elixirs from wild flowers, shrubs and trees. These elixirs were created by Dr. Edward Bach, (English physician), between 1928 and 1935.
The Bach Flower treatment system is extremely simple and therefore its immense healing potential is available to all those who wish to cure the cause of their ailments.
This healing method forms a system of integral rebalancing of the Being; in other words, it encompasses all the mental, emotional, and behavioural disturbances that prevent the individual from living in a state of full well-being and health.
"As the herbs heal our anxieties, our worries, our faults and our failings; it is these we must seek, and then the disease, no matter what it is, will leave us." Dr. Edward Bach, the Twelve Healers.
Dr. Bach's approach teaches that, during the healing process, it is the human being that should be considered, not the disease. The physical symptoms are therefore the consequences and not the causes of the individual's disharmony.
In short, Bach Flowers allow the whole being to be harmonized so that the body can return to a state of health and balance.
The Bach Flower treatment method is 100% natural, with no side effects or contraindications, and can be used by adults, children, babies and even animals.
Children respond quickly to the Bach Flower Remedies because they have not had years of unresolved emotional imbalances. Parents who give Bach Flower Remedies to their children are often amazed by the positive effect the Remedies have on their children's emotional well-being.
Useful information about the consultations:
In a flower therapy consultation, we will talk about the challenges you are facing. We try to identify the emotions, beliefs, and motivations behind the situations you are seeking help for.
Appointments last an average of 1 hour and can be done either in person in Montreal or online, from anywhere in the world.
A follow up session, ideally after 3 weeks, is suggested to assess changes in your feelings, evaluate adjustment in the remedies and to continue to understand the remedies.
The Technique
TRE® is a simple and innovative technique capable of releasing deep tensions within the physical body, relieving stress, balancing emotions, and overcoming Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), thus bringing the body back into a state of balance.
Created by Dr. David Berceli, PhD, this technique safely activates a natural reflex mechanism, consisting of shaking or vibrating, that releases muscular tension, thus calming down the nervous system.
If used regularly, TRE® can relieve many symptoms related to physical, emotional, and behavioural issues, as well as prevent everyday stress from developing into chronic tension.

The Benefits
TRE® is useful for dealing with:
Who can practice TRE®?
People of all ages can practice. Those with physical limitations can adapt the exercises to their needs.
Contraindications: Pregnant women and those with medical restrictions who are advised to do light to moderate physical activity.
TRE® has been used safely and effectively by a wide range of people around the world. The tremors experienced during practice simply relax patterns of muscle tension, which is why TRE® can be practiced independently by most people after 4 to 6 supervised sessions.
However, during the process of relaxing chronic muscle contraction, some individuals may experience emotional discharge - from mild to severe - that reflects the original cause of the physical tension. In cases of severe emotional discharge, and if the individual does not feel comfortable, direct supervision by a certified facilitator should be sought.
