Hard to believe that I graduated from college for Massage Therapy 20 years ago, and convocation from the University Of Waterloo would have been 24 years ago.... So much has happened in that time but I can say that I still love what I do, even though it looks a little different right now.

Happy Summer Solstice! Here’s an hour sound bath that recorded for today. Enjoy this beautiful summer day! https://soundcloud.com/user-516611445/solstice-healing

#horseday2020 I think it started with my Mom reading The Black Stallion to me when when I was young and my love of horses has only grown. I have been fortunate to meet so many wonderful horses throughout my life, and it’s been a privilege to be able to help them in their health with massage therapy. Happy Horse Day to all my horse-loving friends!

Here is my latest sound bath... Great to meditate to, relax or even fall asleep to. Enjoy! https://soundcloud.com/user-516611445/a-time-to-heal-2

If you missed the docuseries The Truth about Pet Cancer, the entire series is available this weekend online. Definitely something all pet owners should watch! https://go2.thetruthaboutcancer.com/pet-docuseries/replay/

This is the last of the 7 episode docuseries on the Truth about Pet Cancer. There are many holistic alternatives to help prevent and treat cancer. The video is only available for 24 hrs, so watch it if you can. The entire series is available for purchase, but hopefully it will also be accessible via YouTube. The company also did a series called The Truth About Cancer and from what I can see, it is still free online to watch. Definitely worth your time. https://go2.thetruthaboutcancer.com/pet-docuser/episode-7/

This is a fantastic series. If you’re going to watch any of the episodes, this one on vaccines is definitely worth watching! https://go2.thetruthaboutcancer.com/pet-docuser/episode-3/

A great documentary... well worth the time to watch!

Here's an interesting new study. There are many benefits to riding, regardless of which discipline and breed, but I've never considered the effects of the vibration.... https://www.facebook.com/TownandCountryMagazine/videos/10155059177078433/

It's International Self Care Day.... What are you doing to help yourself recharge on this gorgeous day?

Alberta is such an amazing province... Equestrian Areas where you can camp with your horse and go trail riding... Mountains, campfires, great food and friends... No complaints from me!

"In the steady gaze of the horse shows a silent eloquence that speaks of love and loyalty, strength and courage. It is the window that reveals to us how willing is his spirit - how generous his heart."

Here is an interesting article about laminitis and insulin resistance in horses..... http://www.laminitishelp.org//feed-more-hay-to-laminitic-/

Noah is such a ham for the camera! He loves his massages, but apparently he loves the camera too!
