Star sign / human design:
Leo & Projector
Cultural background / upbringing :
Canadian!
My upbringing had a lot of snow and maple syrup.
What is the being method ?
This is an online course on the science of spirituality that I run yearly! I studied health sciences for a long time and felt so suspended between science and my spiritual beliefs. I decided to start a course that blends both! It looks at anatomy in a really exciting way where the body is seen as magical rather than a machine.
Morning routine / Rituals ?
Very simple right now! I always always always say “thank you” when I wake up. As soon as I open my eyes. Gratitude is the attitude.
Im mostly flowing with my daughter’s schedule so I just surrender to her—not a routine. Two things I’ve managed to keep are singing and heart coherence meditations. I do them with her and it’s so special.
How did you prepare your body for pregnancy ?
I did a whole huge lifestyle change! I left my job that was stressful, I started my own company, and I really focused on my own healing. Conception took a while for us because I didn’t have a menstrual cycle for years. It took some deeper healing. I was told by several doctors I was probably infertile but I’m wrighting this with one hand and breastfeeding my daughter with the other right now so I have immense belief in the body to heal.
Habits you try to have ?
Drinking lots of water. Being grateful. Communicating openly with my loved ones. Resting. Telling my husband how much I appreciate him before bed. Prayer.
Favorite form of movement/exercise?
Running! I was actually training for a marathon when I got pregnant. I had run 33km one morning and felt a bit slow so I took a pregnancy test and that’s how we found out!
What is your skin care routine?
So so so simple. I do raw honey face masks, I wash my face once a day with F. Miller oil cleanser, then I use Egyptian Magic olive oil and honey as a moisturizer. My skin does a lot better when I just leave it alone.
I also firmly believe orgasms are the secret to good skin.
Contemporary Women that inspire you:
Literally all of them. Anyone that chose to come to this planet (right now or ever) as a woman is so so so powerful.
A playlist or music you like to listen to:
We listen to a lot of Miracle Tones. I just find listening to certain tones so relaxing.
Books:
Any Rilke poems.
Podcasts you listen to?
The On Being episode with Joanna Macy is absolutely life changing.
A business owned by a woman :
Rainbo mushrooms! Tonya is so authentic in her mission and I could not be more proud of her.
