About Me
A Story of Transformation

My Story...

​

I could write an inspiring success story of how I got here, but the truth is…it wasn’t that glamourous.  I was 30 years old, at a point in my life where I thought I had everything figured out.  Great relationship, fantastic career, a whole swarm of friends, family, coworkers and mentors around me as I travelled that well worn path to “success” that so many tread.  I hadn’t walked; I sprinted and it wasn’t an easy one.  My 20’s were a blur and at the forefront… constant, grinding work, late nights and life stressors that had built up in a way I had never taken the time to acknowledge.  At 28 I was making more money than I knew what to do with in a demanding but aspiring career as a business consultant.   All of that came to a halt the day I felt this strange sharp “zap” go off in my head.  I could say I saw the symptoms coming, looking back on it now...the random stabs of pain in my body, the inability to stare at my phone screen for long periods of time, crushing headaches, the list goes on…but I chalked it up to overwork because God knows I come from a family of workaholics.

​

But I won’t forget that day, the day where I started to literally feel everything around me.  From my laptop to the work phone I was glued to, the TV’s and yes even the cell towers and power lines.  I felt like I was going crazy.  There I was preparing for go-live on a high-profile project in downtown Toronto, sitting in an office surrounded by EMFs (Electromagnetic Frequencies) literally feeling like my head was going to explode and my body capsize.  I checked myself in at the Mount Sinai Hospital in Toronto and the ER Doctor said in a perplexed tone, “I can clearly see that something is wrong with you but I don’t know what it is… your tests are coming back normal.” A genius Doctor was baffled. I left with acknowledgment but no answer.

​

 … then the googling began…

​

And that's when I found it, in the midst of a horrific headache - an obscure reddit thread – Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity – say what?  Yes, it’s actually thing and I seemed to be experiencing all of the associated symptoms.  I quickly found Dr. David Fancy – A Chair and Professor at Brock University who had the same experience, he and Edie Pett helped me greatly throughout that difficult time.  I found the Environmental Health Clinic at Women’s College Hospital and Dr. Rinna Bray where I later received a formal diagnosis.  But it didn’t start or end there.  There was no “cure” I was bluntly told and to top it all off, this condition…and living without electricity, wifi and cell phones for 2 years was the just tip of the iceberg.

​

I lost everything I had spent my 20's working for​ and what followed was years of conditions, “dis-eases” and diagnoses - some life threatening - that came one after another, a relentless downpour which are as follows:

​

• Electromagnetic Hypersensitvity

• Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (ME/CFS)

• Hashimotos Thyroditis

• Pituitary Adenoma

• Reactivated Epstein-Barr

• Reactivated Parvovirus

• Bartonella and Babesia Infections (Lyme Coinfections)

• Postural Orthostatic Tachychardia (POTS)

• Fibromyalgia

• Sepsis 

• Complex Horseshoe Fistula 

• Adrenal Insufficiency 

• Systemic Candida (so bad it was growing on my skin)

• Lichen Sclerosus 

• Fluoroquinolone Toxicity

• Paralysis and neuropathy from (from floxing)

• Mold + Arsenic Poisoning

• Mast Cell Activation

• Kidney Stones

• Hypertonic Pelvic Floor + Urinary Hesitancy 

• Anaphylaxsis

• Fascial Restriction (ongoing from 3rd degree childhood burns)

​​​​

With this list came 11 Medical Specialists, 2 Surgeons and an Integrative Care Team that was filled with Practitioners that specialized in everything from Naturopathy to Reiki, Iridology to Myofasical Release...I tried all modalities in my desperate attempt to recover.  Every dime I had earned went to "saving" myself.  (Yes even PEMF Treatments from a retired nurse who lived in the middle of a forest because when you're that motivated to heal...anything goes!) On top of navigating the complexities and excrutiating symptoms of the conditions, I had to face the deep trauma, fears, shame, guilt, nervous system imbalances and yes karmas of my birth that led to the manifestation of many of these conditions… but I digress…

​

The thing is...your 20’s are supposed to be the time "you figure it out", you fall and fail, get back up and its okay... yet here I was in my 30’s not only having to figure it out all over again, my life literally on the line, but also having to decide where I was going to go from here.

​

But there is a surrender in all things, a time when you align to something greater than yourself…especially when you lose the associations you once identified yourself with.  I was guided back to my roots, the rich Indian culture and traditions I was raised in.  With the help of Integrative Medicine, Alternative Therapies and of course the Vedic Sciences: Ayurveda, Vedic Astrology, Meditation and Yoga - I would go on to heal, completely recover or be symptom free from the many conditions I experienced.  No easy feat considering I was told repeatedly I wouldn't recover by Medical Doctors.

​

In the process, I shifted internally and externally.  I pursued a very divinely guided Masters Degree in Ayurveda and Integrative Medicine, travelled to clinics in the US and hospitals in India to study under the tutelge of some of the most renowned Ayurvedic Doctors.  During that process, I opened my own practice in the heart of my community, downtown Whitby.

​

Bless the karma in my stars or I wouldn’t be here doing what I do now.  Deeply immersed in not just a career but a passion and mission to prevent and help others recover from complex health issues and become the best and most authentic expression of themselves.  And underlying all of it, a profound connection to my spirituality that I would not be here without.

​

Now I will say this… Although this journey has been nothing short of humbling and transformational, I was relentless in my pursuit of healing.  I also had a partner, family, friends, coworkers, healthcare practitioners and a community that supported me and most importantly….believed me.  They were kind, loving and respectful but this is not always the case when one goes through health trials, especially those that are not mainstream, can be invisible, are misunderstood or hard to figure out.  And that’s why I am here…it’s why I do what I do, to discover the root cause of an individual’s imbalance and help them achieve health and wellbeing… naturally.  To say no to the quick fixes, the medications or symptom management that often come with long term side effects but don't solve the problem.  To help people understand themselves at the deepest level of their birth in this life in order to transcend their karmas and begin anew. To work with those that find me, those that are looking for deep healing and recovery coming from a spiritually led place of lived experienced alongside timeless wisdom.  Those who need the support and community to help them through those tough days lost in the tunnel with no light in sight. 

​

If you’re ready… I truly believe you will be guided and I look forward to navigating that tunnel right alongside you.

​

With Love…
