Movement
[noun] an act of unifying the physical and energetic bodies to arrive at a fully awakened state.
I first discovered yoga in university as I heard it can help with stress management and relaxation. It wasn’t until after I graduated that I fully committed myself to the practice. Consistency is always the secret to finding the magic of any activity or habit. Once I realized the power of this movement practice, I was hooked.
This was my ultimate self-care ritual that kept my nervous system at a functioning level, especially when life got challenging. I will be honest, at times I would drift from my practice only to find myself spinning and overwhelmed. This was always my friendly nudge from the universe to come back to my practice.
When I became a nurse and moved to Toronto, I lost sight of my priorities and became very disconnected from my body and its needs. At times, I replaced my yoga practice with partying to run and numb my emotions. I would always come back, but the times I wasn’t regularly on my mat made my living in my body a lot more challenging. Being a Neurosurgical + Trauma Nurse was incredibly taxing on my physical and emotional body. I witnessed human suffering and despair on a daily basis that shook me to my core. I also experienced severe sexual trauma that made me feel completely disconnected from my body. Releasing the energy that was trapped within my tissues and feeling the big emotions to face my past seemed completely unbearable.
It wasn’t until after I called of my wedding, at one of my lowest points in my life, when I made a commitment to myself. Yoga is essential. It softens me when I am tense, energizes me when I am down and safely brings me back to my body.
Yoga is an opportunity to tune-in to what your body craves and nourish it with movement. It is medicine for the soul and how I feel grounded when going through turbulent times. This inspired me to share the power of movement with others. In 2018, I received my 300-hour teacher training at Ahimsa Yoga and became Yoga Alliance certified. I continue to fall madly in love with the practice and am passionate about expanding my knowledge while showing others the magic of yoga.
As a yoga teacher, I aspire to create a space of kindness where you can slow down and anchor into the softness of your breath while sparking your inner fire and evoking a sense of play.
I teach a variety of styles from faster paced vinyasa flows, to get your heart pumping, and gentler yin and restorative flows, to strike a balance between the yin and the yang energy within you.
My classes allow you to explore breath and movement, encourage introspection and promote self-love while arriving fully into the present moment.
I love to create flows balanced with slow fluid movements and faster transitioning asanas that challenge and empower the body.
I encourage gratitude for your body, encourage a sense of playfulness and a moment to appreciate how you feel in that moment.
My first distance session with Timea was more powerful than any Reiki I’ve experienced in-person, which is absolutely incredible. I’m so grateful to her and her expertise; she helped me let go of some trauma that I needed to rid myself of for some time. Her takeaways were extremely accurate and brought me to tears. I had been in a very negative place in my life prior to beginning to work with her, and her feedback made me feel heard and seen. It was like she was reading my soul. Timea is knowledgeable and very insightful and intentional with her work.
Timea’s exceptional energy combined with her knowledge of energy work and scientific background is extremely beneficial. I took both my Reiki 2 and the Elevated Mentorship Program. Timea’s knowledge and support surpassed all of my expectations. My knowledge within Reiki and the resources to be successful in my own energy business have skyrocketed and I am forever thankful to Timea for her kind spirit. After having done years of self-development and energetic learning, Timea is hands down my go-to gal and I have her to thank for pushing the needle forward in my Reiki business, as well as my self-compassion. She is truly unlike any other teacher and I highly recommend her if you want to begin or continue your work in Reiki, or if you’re just craving more love and peace as an individual.
I had an Akashic Record Reading with Timea and it was such a profoundly spiritual experience. By connecting me with my guides, Timea was able to help me release some guilt and regret I was holding onto, which has opened up a space in my heart for love and self-acceptance. I would absolutely recommend working with Timea for anyone who is looking for a deeper spiritual connection in their life, and a desire to put their faith in the universe. Through her amazing warmth, empathy, and spiritual presence, Timea is the perfect guide to get you to that place.
As part of my Reiki certification I began to commit time every single day to pausing, listening and tending to my energetic body. What started off as a quick morning routine (I am NOT a morning person by nature), grew into a ritual I savour and look forward to daily. The shifts that commitment has created have been life changing, in big ways and small. Being in tune with my energy has allowed me to connect more to my intuition, better recognize my own needs, calm my anxiety, and sync up with my natural rhythms in ways that help me find flow in life. Timea has been an incredibly supportive and knowledgeable guide (and just an all-around wonderful human being to be around) and I am so grateful she has led me on this journey. I could not recommend working with her enough!
All the times I’ve received distance Reiki from you, my energy felt distinctly lighter for days afterward. I’ve always woken up the next day and just felt levity. Like my field was truly cleared. My mind and overall energetic/emotional body felt CLEANER. I’ll truly never forget some of the insights you relayed from your key takeaways from our Reiki sessions - you are a true intuitive, and I hold in my heart and mind some of the visions you have shared with me. You know my soul! I would recommend Timea only only because of her truly palpable energy healing, but also because of her consistently strong work ethic. When Timea shows up, she shows up, 100%. She is so dedicated to her healing work, and truly walks her talk. I always feel in good hands with Timea no matter what state I happen to be in. I know I can come as I am, and I am so grateful for that.
