Happy New Year! Planting Seeds for 2025!

Hello Everyone,

It has been a very long time since I wrote an updated blog post. Over the last two years I have gone through many major transitions! So what’s been happening over the last couple years….?

I relocated to Rockland Ontario, completed my herbal apprenticeship, and started practicing as a Clinical Herbalist. What a ride that was, and still is as I continue to learn and grow every day! Last winter I decided to go inward and completed a 300hr advanced yoga teacher training with a focus on deep tension release, meditation, pranayama and advanced postures. I settled into my new space and decided to get a puppy! As if I didn’t have enough on the go…. but those of you who know me would not be surprised. This puppy happens to be a husky mix so I have been spending a lot of time woking with and training us both, how to be successful communicators. It requires lots of effort, diligence and patience, which I am noticing most efforts in life and success do. Having said all of this I am quite settled in the new space with some added skills and knowledge moving into 2025.

I have decided to plant some seeds of birth since the transitional period moving from Winter to Spring is slowly approaching. This time of year is for introspection so this is the perfect time to start dreaming of the seeds you wish to plant this coming spring….

This spring and throughout the year, I will move deeper into my relationship with plants, offering my knowledge in some workshops throughout the year and building my clinical practice. I am accepting new Herbal Clients. Stay tuned for workshops….

I am running four Mastery Level Reiki Apprenticeship programs which are fully underway starting January 2025. I offer levels 1-3 certification as well as a year long mastery program. It is life changing and moving.

Summer I would love to host a client appreciation event BBQ. This would include all of my clients for herbal, yoga and reiki. An email will be sent out in this regard!

In August I have been invited to share workshops at the Outaouais Herb Gathering which I am very excited about! The topics I am sharing are Moving Through the Cycles of Nature with Herbs, and Dreaming with Herbs. Both workshops will be informative and interactive.

Finally…. I am hoping to offer a 200 hour Hatha Yoga Teacher Training Program this Fall or Winter should all of the pieces link together by then…. This program will be in person offered one weekend a month for several months until complete. More details to follow….

What seeds do you plant for yourself this coming spring? I have large projects I intend to launch this year, which I have been preparing for for the last two years, but seed planting could be as simple as eating healthier foods in alignment with the seasons, exercising once per week, starting meditation or yoga. Where ever you are on your life path and journey make sure you plant some seeds of your own, no matter how small or big. There is always support along the way should you ask….

Happy New Year to all of you,

Sincerely,

Christina
