WELCOME
I'm Iola (pronouned: yo-la)
I am not the type of person who follows a recipe or the rules. Instead, I have a range of skills contributing to my offerings' melting pot. It's about finding which of these a-tune to your being. I work with the whole adult and child, honouring the holistic being, using various practices that can support you during the ever-changing seasons of life.
The Heart Shine experience restores balance in the body. Connecting with yourself and listening to what you need, finding the instrument that makes your heart shine, and using it as your medicine. This applies to all the work I do with adults and children​.​ For we are healing not only ourselves but the generations before and the generations to come.
​​
I am here to help you feel, get real, and heal so you can keep on growing with a shining heart space. ​
GRIEF
Retreats - Workshops - Online Circles
There is no other way to explain it: that yearning in your heart for something you no longer have stings!
I've come to accept that it never goes away, but some parts can be released and expressed so that they don't get stuck in the body. By creating time and space to face your grief, you can lighten the load
Head, Heart, Hands - Creativity - Curiosity - Earth Based
EDUCATION
I believe that every learning space should celebrate a child's uniqueness. That each child has a different set of powers that they bring to a community. It is the adults' role to get to know them, make them feel safe and valued, and encourage their individuality to shine bright.
CACAO

Cacao has been my medicine for the last 5 years. It has helped me process my grief, connect deeper with my spirit and live a more balanced lifestyle.​
