Warm thanks to Elena Pecherskaya for this painting, “Tracey teaching us yoga under the Tree of Life”.

I acknowledge with respect the Lekwungen-speaking peoples on whose traditional territory I live; and the Songhees, Esquimalt and WSÁNEĆ peoples whose historical relationships with the land continue to this day.

about tracey

I spent a lot of grind in law school, swimming against the current. When I was called to the Bar, I finally turned tail and began to flow into a way into a way of being and contributing in the world that feels authentic and fulfilling.

Now I don’t need to distinguish my life from my work. It’s just what I do.

I’m honoured to walk with you on your wellness journey, way-finding together with the tools of Shinrin Yoku/Forest Bathing, Holistic Nutrition, and the practices and observances of Yoga.

Let’s go step-by-step, on your path towards the innate ease, wellness, and joy that is already there and waiting for you to believe in it—and in yourself—enough to claim it.

One day when you wake up, you will find that you’ve become a forest. You’ve grown roots and found strength in them that no one thought you had. You have become stronger and more beautiful, full of life giving qualities. You have learned to take all the negativity around you and turn it into oxygen for easy breathing. A host of wild creatures live inside you and you call them stories. A variety of beautiful birds nest inside your mind and you call them memories. You have become an incredible self sustaining thing of epic proportions. And you should be so proud of yourself, of how far you have come from the seeds of who you used to be.
