Creatrix | S*x, Love & Relationship Coach | Priestess | Embodiment & Breath Facilitator

I started practicing yoga in 1996, the original motivation — to touch my toes! I had no idea the journey I was beginning to undertake would be so profound and transformational. Almost 20 years later, I can touch my toes, and along the way I discovered that my talent and my passion has become helping others nourish their unique journey toward self discovery. While most of my retreats and offerings are open to all, I am particularly passionate about helping women explore the divine feminine and embrace their indwelling power, the Shakti nature within. This work entails going deep, uncovering blocks, becoming embodied, balanced and strong on all levels, ultimately, becoming comfortable with feminine creativity, sexuality and personal power. As I continue the personal practice of embracing Shakti, I experience my evolution forward into myself. An increasingly empowering and liberating experience, I can’t help but feel compelled to help others (primarily women) experience this for themselves. I am the founding owner of Chinook Yoga in Prince George, BC and a Director within the Primary Faculty of the SOYA Yoga Teacher Training Program. I have more than 18 years of yoga teaching experience and have taught many practitioners to become yoga teachers themselves. I am also a Doctor of Homeopathy and I love to creatively integrate the principles of Yoga and Homeopathy to help unlock a student’s deepest potential within.

When I took grains out of my diet, I still wanted the experience of eating bread. This dense, hearty loaf is what I landed on, and I only found out later that it already had a name: Nordic stone age bread. One slice with old cheddar and avocado keeps me full and my blood sugar steady, which matters more than ever in midlife.

Recipe:

* 650 g mixed nuts and seeds (sprouted is ideal - sprouting video coming soon!!)
* 6 eggs
* 1/2 cup olive oil
* 1 tsp salt
* Optional: chopped dates or raisins, or spices like cinnamon, cardamom or caraway. Be creative.

Mix everything together, press into a parchment-lined loaf pan and bake at 350°F for 50-60 minutes. Let it cool completely before slicing. It freezes well, so slice it, freeze it and toast it straight from frozen.

Save this one for your next baking day!

Today I fly to Mexico to lead my Radiant Renewal retreat at the gorgeous , and I can’t wait!! A week of ocean, movement, connection, nourishing food and an incredible group of women.

Packing light has never been my strength, and at this stage of life I’ve stopped trying. These are the essentials that come with me everywhere now, because sleeping well and feeling good in my body come first. The outfits sort themselves out. 😜

This summer we had a very large wasp nest right above some firewood, close to the house. Removing it was hard for me, because I really hesitate to harm any living creatures. With Marco’s allergy, though, it had to be dealt with, so one night I pulled on winter gear and gloves and took care of it.

Now that the leaves are down, I can finally really see the whole thing up close. Layer after layer of paper, every cell made from chewed wood and saliva, all of it engineered for protection. We’re leaving it up, because an empty nest still keeps new wasps from moving in.

Standing beside it, I recognized myself. For years, my protection looked like over-functioning: staying busy, holding everything together, never really switching off. I built that for good reason, and it served me. But I’ve noticed it still runs long after I need it, and it keeps away the very things I want more of now, like rest, pleasure and letting someone else help.

I’m not trying to tear down that part of me, because my nervous system still needs some of that protection. These days I practise more discernment. I catch it sooner and get curious about what it’s still guarding.

What are you still guarding? If you’d like help figuring that out, book a free "Making Sense of It Session" here:

Happy Samhain everyone 🎃

I had to leave the box of dollar-store dryer sheets outside on my porch because the synthetic smell was that overwhelming!! 🤢 And I used to have all of these in my house, but these days I had to dig for props. The Windex was in a buried box from my parents’ place.

But most homes are full of toxic products of all kinds, and they add up.

What most people don’t know about “fragrance” or “perfume” is that companies can legally list it as a single ingredient. Behind that one word can sit dozens of undisclosed chemicals, many linked to headaches, respiratory irritation, hormone disruption and other conditions (looking at you, phthalates).

You breathe them in, absorb them through your skin and wear them on your clothes all day. In midlife, when your hormones are already shifting, that’s the last thing your body needs.

Simple swaps:

* Scented candles - essential oil diffuser
* Dryer sheets - wool dryer balls
* Conventional deodorant - natural deodorant (there are so many amazing ones!)
* Glass cleaner - vinegar and water

You don’t have to overhaul your whole house today. Just pick one swap and build from there.

Which swap are you making first? 👇

Happy Halloween!! 🦠🎃

Most store-bought ice cream is made with emulsifiers like polysorbate 80 and carboxymethylcellulose, which research has linked to thinning your gut’s protective mucus layer and disrupting your microbiome. 😩 This one skips all of that and gives your gut something to thrive on instead. 🍌💜

The secret is a green banana. Unripe bananas are rich in resistant starch, a fibre that passes through to your large intestine and feeds your beneficial bacteria. They turn it into short-chain fatty acids like butyrate, which help keep your gut lining strong, and green bananas cause a much smaller blood sugar rise than ripe ones. The greener the better!!

Ingredients:
* 1 very green, unripe banana
* 2-3 tbsp cream cheese
* 1 tsp vanilla
* 1 tbsp maple syrup or sweetener of choice
* 2 cups frozen berries (I used haskaps, but raspberries, blueberries or mixed berries all work)

Method:
1. Add everything to a blender and blend until smooth. You may need a tamper to get it going.
2. Serve immediately and add your toppings. I love ground flax for extra omega-3s and fibre, plus sliced almonds. Cacao nibs, chopped nuts or extra berries are delicious too.
3. Enjoy immediately!

You came for the eggs and broth - here’s who’s making them!!

Last week my breakfast reel took off, and almost 180,000 views later, I’m blown away. Welcome to everyone who’s just landed here from all over the world.

I’m Carla, and I live in Prince George, BC, with my sweetheart, giant garden, my chickens and a dog who supervises everything. I've got 3 amazing young adult kids; I’ve been teaching yoga since 1997, ran a studio for 22 years, and trained as a wildlife biologist before finding my way into holistic health.

Today I help women 40+ reclaim their energy, pleasure and power through midlife. Food is a big part of that, but so are hormones, the nervous system, sleep, movement and pleasure - all the parts of ourselves we stop paying attention to after decades of caring for everyone else.

So stay for the recipes, and stay for the rest of it too. Where in the world are you joining me from?

My walks in the forest are where I sort out almost everything. Brain fog, a decision I keep circling, a mood I can't shake - most of it shifts somewhere on the trail.

In midlife, we're so often told the answer is more: more supplements, more workouts, more discipline.

But some of the best medicine is the simplest. Walking helps steady blood sugar, settles a wired nervous system and gives your mind room to breathe, especially when you get outside into daylight and trees. 🌞🌲

No gear, no tracking, no plan required. Just walk until something shifts.

What would you walk off today? 👇

Just 2 spots left for tomorrow's workshop - is one of them yours??

My favourite 4-minute morning brain and gut fuel 🥣✨

I eat this bowl almost every single day. When you start your morning with warm collagen, quality protein, and mineral-dense sea vegetables, your energy and focus stay rock-solid all morning long - no crash by 10 AM!

* 2 cups warm, slow-simmered bone broth (~12g protein)
* 1 scoop collagen peptides (~10g protein)
* 3 farm-fresh poached eggs (~18g protein)
* 1 sheet shredded roasted seaweed (for iodine and trace minerals)
* Quality salt & black pepper to taste

(That’s over 35g of clean, gut-soothing protein in under 5 minutes).

How to:
1. Heat your bone broth in a small pot and gently poach 3 eggs right in the broth to your desired firmness (take out slightly early as they keep cooking in the broth)
2. Scoop a serving of collagen powder into your bowl and ripped up roasted seaweed.
3. Pour the hot broth and poached eggs over the collagen and stir gently until dissolved.
4. Season to taste. I sometimes add a couple of ice cubes to cool faster. Enjoy!

Would you make something like this in the morning? Let me know below! 👇
