Marie is passionate about life and all that is nature related. Her main focus is optimizing thriving health, for herself and those around her. She, with her partner, is growing a lot of their own food organically, also building the quality of their surrounding soil and are on the path of self sustainability – in harmony with nature.
Marie loves teaching her patients on a day to day basis about how the body works in a physical, energetic, and emotional way. She has witnessed the importance of greater knowing, as it means more empowerment and brings on lifestyle adjustments which in return enhances healing and transformative changes. Undoubtedly these changes lead to better choices and increase in quality of life. Marie has trained in Chinese Medicine acupuncture as well as psychology in Montreal, Canada. She has also completed a Chinese Herbal Medicine certification, an Equine Acupuncture diploma as well as Reiki and Rebirth healing methods. Over the years, she has worked in multi-modality clinics as an acupuncturist in Australia, and led Chinese Medicine educational workshops for her community. She has also done volunteering in Life-line like centers whilst living in Canada.
Marie has been following Heather’s work for years and officially embarked on The Gentling Way practitioner journey in 2021 – embracing the traditional wisdoms and multi lineage approach of her teachings.
Love at first sight! ”It makes so much sense”. Simply. Naturally. It works.
She particularly loves Heather’s concept of ”Life recipe” and getting access to our own ”Owner’s manual”, which are both essential if one desires to heal and thrive.
Heather’s teachings have brought tangible hands on methods to understand better what is needed for recovery utilizing the very unique language of the body. It has helped Marie fill-in the gaps from previous trainings. She is now more confident in treating women’s health concerns, pregnant women and complex conditions, and has acquired additional practical tools so she can teach her patients simple, accessible and effective methods of healing that they can use themselves at home. She has also learned a multitude of hand moves that have transformational effects. It has enhanced Marie’s understanding of the natural ways of healing as well as optimizing her practical healing abilities in clinic which translates in many positives and transformative outcomes.
She is now teaching The Gentle Selfing workshops online as well as in person.
