About

Body of Light
To freely support, inspire and celebrate the Love that flows through myself – as well as each and every person. In Honour to this Life and this beautiful Planet.
To Live in Harmony with Nature as family/community – in support of one another’s incredible gifts.
A place in which anyone and everyone may be welcomed home as a part of family to re-connect with their True Nature, especially if/when they need it the most. A space to grow our own food, build our own homes, to laugh, play, to sing, dance and pray.
Bridging Heaven and Earth – recognizing that we have it All, Here and Now… As we learn to honour this gift of Life each and every day.
Linked together from around the World, as we Celebrate and share the Abundance that Life provides for us All.
Equality
For we are all equally valuable – yet unique in what we bring to the World.
Authenticity & Transparency
For in our ability to to open and honest, we provide ourselves the opportunity to release the guilt and shame of our shadows and come to know that we are Love(d) through it all.
Life is a great process of learning and growing
Through our ability to work together – we have the opportunity to learn so much from one another and about ourselves. Recognizing that conflict, is simply based upon misunderstandings. And therefore giving us the chance to learn and grow so much.
I desire to further create a space for family and live as community so that our children can be better supported, but so too can the parents and the elders – who all play a key role. Completing the “Circle of Life” Divinity, Mother Earth and us.
To open to greater levels of service, while also further simplifying my Life. Deepening my connection to Mother Earth. And strengthening my skills to grow food and build in eco-freindly ways.
I am currently focused on working on these three levels:
1. To be present listening to the needs of Life and those around me to know what ways I can serve here and now. Whether that includes helping an individual or family. To further develop and offer workshops, retreats and online program/guides and provide one-on-one guidance and support.
2. To come together with others locally to co-create or contribute towards sustainable community based living.
3. To spread the good word about Body of Light and provide the opportunity for others to participate and contribute in support of one another and this beautiful planet.
Over the last Years
Through a dedication to Service I am forever Grateful for each and every experience I have been given.
Being able to travel through many parts of the most magical places in the World teaching and sharing classes, workshops, retreats and Cacao Ceremonies – assisting and supporting individuals to come together “in Circle” to re-connect with themselves, one another, Mother Earth and All that exists.
To recognize our freedom and celebrate the incredible gifts of each and every person – as Pure expressions of Divinity through music, dance, meditation, breath work and prayer.
This time has brought me to integrate with a number of key energetic power points and connect with a wide variety of people from around the World who are similarly walking the path as “Beings of Light and Love”. And it has given me the opportunity to pass through a number of community spaces striving to find a balance and become self-sustaining. Showing me the many challenges that exist for us as individuals to transition our Lives and for Communities to truly flourish.
Religion
Raised in a Christian home the values seemed to be a part of my Nature, though the teachings didn’t always feel fully aligned until stepping away from the confides of Religion. I then began a great search of knowledge and wisdom from a variety of Ancient teachings and religions which really supported me to further understand the Truth within the Bible and more importantly the Truth within myself in direct relation to God/Source/Love. So that I may embody all that I am and allow Love to be expressed through me – as nothing.
I pray that one day we may all set aside our differences and come together to recognize and Celebrate the Love that flows through us All.
Awakening through Pain
In 2005 my younger sister Chantal ended her Life at the age of 18. It was her suicide which brought me onto my path of healing/awakening, knowing that she didn’t get a chance to Live, yet I do. I came to see if I wasn’t truly living, I am only moving further towards dying. And through my desire to truly live, I saw the basic steps in which we learn to follow our hearts, then we are forced to face our fears and release them, deepening our ability to trust.
I could see how mistrust has become normal for many people, a sickness of fear that is difficult to recognize – yet here we can not only restore trust in ourselves and this Universe – but we can extend it unto one another and therefore restore trust on our planet once again.
My sister is of course my greatest teacher and ally – whom not only exposed me to the mental health system in Canada which continues to deeply traumatize many people who seek help. She awakened the desire to not only commit my life to creating positive change in the world from the inside out. She also awakened the dream to create and offer a space for others to access true loving support and a community/nature based healing centre.
Producing a full length Documentary titled “The truth About Teenage Suicide” I toured across Canada to empower, inspire and equip teens, parents and teachers with the basics of Suicide Prevention and Mental Health through a program I created called “High 5 for Life”. Encouraging others to take the time to be there for one another and truly listen with their hearts. And shared how each and every one of us can develop a greater level of self awareness, be proactive with our wellness and develop/utilize basic coping methods; in particularly through meditation and physical outdoor activity.
Eventually that chapter came to a close – as it was becoming increasingly challenging to enter into schools who had become fearful of addressing suicide and were highly influenced by the mental health industry which was promoting the use of medications and rarely if ever providing any actual tools for coping or transformation/healing.
In 2013 it was time to Travel on. Leaving the comfort of a home I renovated a school bus along with my partner at the time and her two boys. We set out on what we called “The Open Heart Tour” to further shine our Lights and spread our love – as the weight of owning or renting a house and all the material possessions become “too heavy”.
In opening the doors to traveling, new opportunities came up and my partner was invited to create a school program for elementary students to learn about Native North American Wisdom. The program titled Cercle De Vie / Circle of Life was deeply impactful bringing students/teachers together in Circle to learn about Traditional values and teachings, to recognize that we are all family and that we need to support/give back to mother Earth as she provides us everything we have/need.
Through drumming, singing, dancing and crafts students were guided through a sacred process that was very much heart centred – having the ability to honour and nurture the souls of these young kids no matter what backgrounds they came from was truly an incredible opportunity to share.
Along the way I came in contact with the “Prophecy of the Rainbow Warrior” which spoke deeply to my mission here on Earth. While also connecting through a number of Native American rituals, ceremonies and sweat lodges in addition to connecting to a number of past Lives living within certain Tribes while traveling the land – I slowly began to re-awaken to the deep and profound, yet simple Ancient wisdom that i was carrying.
Through this I began to recognize the importance and value that tribal teachings provide us with – linking us to our Ancient past and the Wisdom / Support of Mother Earth. In ways that other religious teachings seem to often over look. I also began to better understand and work with the Cycles of Life, in particularly the moon Cycles and how it related to the “Ancient Medicine Wheel of Transformation”, supporting us to re-awaken and move beyond duality. Which is part of what I’m inspired to share in support of personal and collective awakening.
Body of Light – through a series of Channeled Messages
Waking up one morning with the voice repeating the words… “Body of Light” i wasn’t really sure where it came from or what it meant.
A few years later upon the top of the Chichen Itza Pyramid in Yucatan Mexico – I received the message that it was time to “Restore the Kingdom” of Heaven on Earth.
I then followed my heart to begin traveling to a number of other places around the world – sharing Cacao Ceremonies to help open the Hearts of others. And going through a number of initiations, which also included activating certain vortexes around the Planet and within myself.
Along the way I had the privilege of connecting with so many incredible people who were on similar journeys. And was able to share the Rainbow Warrior Prophecy to inspire and empower others on their great missions – as we were literally coming together in circle from all around the world.
Each step along the way i have been greatly guided and supported to ride this wave of what seemed impossible. My life had become more and more hard to believe – yet of course if we step back we can all see that Life itself is a miracle, built upon many layers of miracles.
One of the last most profound messages around body of Light and the purpose of my mission was that there are of course many Children ready to enter the Earth plane, and it is important to support them with even greater freedoms that we ourselves have been raised with. And to nurture and love them so they may be raised complete, whole and ready to shine – without having to do the inner work that we had to. And that these children are to be raised in relation to one another so they may unify their abilities to radiate in ways that we ourselves may find it hard to beleive.
We are in this great window of Time, that if we do not take action and move forward here and now, things can and will only become more difficult for future generations to survive let alone Thrive.
This project is a movement to transcend beyond the limitations of Time and space, to give Birth to the next Era of Life on Earth. As we have been preparing internally – this supports us externally through a series of tangible steps.
In Trust, we may further unlock the great mystery and fly together.
