I invite you to join me on the frontier where eco-grief and quantum consciousness meet.

How it all began

Christine rock climbing

Christine’s interest in wellness stretches back to when she graduated as a nurse shortly after finishing high school. She began to study energy healing a few years later, first learning Therapeutic Touch and then completing Level One of the Holistic Nursing Speciality course offered by the Canadian Holistic Nurses Association.

Christine went on to train her nursing colleagues in Therapeutic Touch as well as to apply it in her nursing practice in acute and chronic care settings. She worked as a hemodialysis and geriatric nurse as well as a nurse educator and trainer in both hemodialysis and telemedicine before transitioning to classroom teaching and then writing.

Christine has always been aware of the connection between the health of the natural world and human health and wellbeing. When it became clear that our children’s futures were in danger from the lack of action on urgent environmental issues such as climate change, ocean acidification, and pollution of all kinds, Christine felt called to take action for the sake of her two daughters and future generations.

Her journey as a climate-concerned mother and lobbyist for change brought her full circle back to healing work that began when she graduated as a nurse at the age of 20.

The relief that comes from facing our worst fears is exhilarating and liberating.

Christine speaking at a podium

In her energy healing practice and her life, Christine is deeply committed to exploring the link between personal and collective healing. This includes making time to celebrate the world we have now while working to create a livable future for future generations. A recent migrant to unceded Lkwungen territory, she lived for over two decades on Treaty 3 Territory in northern Ontario, Canada where she drew strength and healing from the rocks and trees and lakes of the boreal forest.
