Professionally, Ruth is a Reiki Practitioner, energy healer and aromatherapy specialist (specializing in essential oil safety) As a Holistic Detoxifier, Ruth teaches people to detoxify their internal and external surroundings so they can live healthier and happier more fulfilled lives. Ruth is really passionate about empowering people to feel more perceptive, peaceful and connected to themselves and the world around them. In the mid-1990’s, Ruth studied bio engineering for four years and learned that there are many harmful chemicals in commercial products that we use every day. These chemicals are “generally recognized as safe” in the amounts that they are inthe personal and cleaning products, but hese chemicals are known carcinogens, neurotoxins and hormone disruptors, which could be why more cancers, neurological diseases and hormone issues are known to us than ever before. In the late 1990’s, Ruth began researching more natural , less harmful substitutes that could be used daily with less safety risk and became certified with a well-renowned aromatherapy school to teach safe aromatherapy (or how to use essential oils)and approaches holistic health from both a scientific and an intuitive point of view. Ruth does not sell essential oils, neither does she get paid by any essential oil company mentioned nor is she a representative for any essential oil company. Ruth is currently working on completing further certifications in various other holistic modalities including treating animals holistically and energetically and with essential oils and hydrosols.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span> Western psychotherapy meets Eastern energy healing!

An early introduction to gardening sparked a lifelong dedication to cultivating and working with plants. This passion has unfolded in various ways \u2013 propagating and selling potted herbs at farmers\u2019 markets, earning a M.Sc. in agriculture, apprenticing for several years in Amazonian plant spirit medicine, enabling the organic certification of diverse farming operations, and fostering community engagement in sustainable food production. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><\/span>\n Don\u2019s profound connection with the plant world continues to evolve. Currently, he is honing his craft in natural incense production, exploring its use as a tool for healing and spiritual growth. A gifted teacher and communicator, Don loves inspiring others to explore new interests and expand their understanding \u2013 via conversations, presentations or workshops. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><\/span>\n Don has spent most of his life with one foot in the scientific realm of the mind, and the other in the spiritual domain of the heart \u2013 navigating the challenges of integrating these two worlds. This unique balance allows him to connect with a wide range of people, appreciate diverse perspectives, and resolve conflicts by seeking common ground. His deep sensitivity and natural empathy help him to understand and articulate others\u2019 viewpoints, while his sense of humour lightens situations and brings joy to those around him.\n\n\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><\/span> <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n As a futurist, Don sometimes wrestles with intuitive glimpses of humanity\u2019s unfolding journey. Yet, he embraces all aspects of our spiritual evolution and trusts that his insights and abilities will come into service as humanity moves forward on its complex and transformative path.\n\n\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><\/span> <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/span>\n\n\n\n<\/span>.\n <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJacqueline Richards <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p> Jacqueline truly understands that dealing with personal financial hardships has an impact on your mind, body and Spirit.

Ramzi volunteered with the Red Cross during the war, which allowed him to help others. Although war is not something that we ever praise, the opportunity that was given to Ramzi, due to the war, ignited his passion to give to and help others.\nThis new spark led him to helping others understand the true meaning of life, who they are and why they are here. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><\/span>\n Ramzi\u2019s passion is to empower others to practice this understanding in all areas of their lives \u2013 emotional, financial and relationships \u2013 and at both the personal and professional levels. These events also kindled a passion in him to facilitate healing in others, through a calling as a spiritual healer.\nAlong the journey of life something happened \u2013 something profound that left him in an existential crisis. Ramzi\u2019s search for the self led to the \u201clight at the end of the tunnel,\u201d through the Dark Night of the Ego. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><\/span>\n The journey hasn\u2019t been easy, yet Ramzi says that he would not change a thing. \u201cEverything unfolds in divine timing the way it\u2019s supposed to unfold. Life is a dance to the rhythm of your music. We sometimes miss a beat, but we end up in tune with it.\u201d\nAs a healer, Ramzi is a catalyst for healing and positive change for others, by being: a Psychic Medium, Reiki healing with Angels, Reiki Master Level 4; Therapeutic Touch Practitioner; Polarity Coach; Licensed NLP Practitioner; Nokti practitioner; and also holds a Law of Attraction Certificate.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><\/span>\n<\/span>\n\n\n\n<\/span>.\n <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNicole Colman <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p> Nicole a Registered Holistic Nutritionist and the 2017 Valedictorian of her graduating class at the Canadian School of Natural Nutrition. She has been practicing nutrition and has worked with clients on weight loss, mental health, hormonal imbalances and much more. She recently completed an advanced course in Nutrition and Mental Health. \n\nNicole is a certified Personal Trainer with Canfit Pro and focuses on correcting movement patterns to reduce pain, weight loss and post-physio movement after motor vehicle accidents. She does group training, individual training and enjoys working both in the gym and home settings. She holds certifications in TRX, Exercise Therapy Level I and Active Aging. \n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><\/span>\n Nicole also holds a BA Honours and MA in Religious Studies and is a Level III Reiki practitioner. \n\nNicole is a mother to three and understands the stress, guilt and internal and external pressures placed on working mothers, stay at home mothers and women as a whole. Nicole was a stay at home mother for seven years before rejoining the workforce and, through trial and error, is still learning the best ways to create a sustainable work\/life balance. She understands that there is no \u201cone size fits all\u201d approach to health and tailors her workouts and meal plans to suit the individual needs of each woman she counsels. \n\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><\/span>\n NIcole is also a certified personal trainer who works primarily with women to empower, create consistency and make movement a part of their daily routine. As women, most often we are expected to shoulder the burden of work and home (with or without kids) and this can result in a loss of personal identity and the constant search for \u201cwho am I?\u201d in a society that values productivity and output. Nicole\u2019s philosophy surrounding nutrition, fitness and spiritual health is that we all need to begin somewhere and that first step is often the hardest. Each day will bring new challenges, disruptions, inspirations and motivations and our response will be what makes constant growth possible.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><\/span>\n \n\nNicole firmly believes that nutrition and exercise should be fun and evolving and not a \u201cchore\u201d to be ticked off a list. As such, she brings a hearty dose of humour to her work.
