Nestled in the heart of Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, Canada, The Healing Loft is more than just a wellness center—it's a sanctuary for mind, body, and soul.


Drawing upon our extensive education and professional expertise, we've curated a space where healing thrives and transformation flourishes.

Our offerings reflect our belief in the interconnectedness of mind, body, and soul.

Whether you're seeking to reconnect with your inner self through yoga and Pilates classes, harness the healing power of energy with Reiki and Healing Touch, or explore the profound connection between breath and body through Somatic Breathwork, we offer a diverse range of modalities to support your holistic well-being.


In addition to our classes and sessions, The Healing Loft hosts courses, workshops, sound healing, retreats, yoga teacher trainings, and Reiki teacher trainings, designed to deepen your understanding of self-care and holistic living.


Our psychotherapy services provide a safe and nurturing space for personal growth and healing, while our spa services offer moments of relaxation and rejuvenation.


At the core of our philosophy is our mantra, "Come as you are," which embodies our belief that everyone deserves to be met with compassion, understanding, and acceptance on their path to wellness.


Whether you're new to the world of holistic healing or a seasoned practitioner, we invite you to join us at The Healing Loft and experience the transformative power of holistic wellness firsthand.

Devotion to your practice changes everything. What once was guided becomes intuitive. What once lived in a studio begins to live within you. This is the evolution of practice. This is what living yoga means.✨?? We love when you join us in the studio… and we love when your dedication carries you beyond it ?

The light room ? Our smaller studio holds a different kind of energy. Softer. Slower. More intimate. Filled with natural light and a quiet, cozy warmth, it’s a space that invites you to soften the moment you walk in. Sometimes, this is exactly what your nervous system needs. Come find your spot here. ✨?

Heal for you. Show up for you. Restorative yoga with Reiki meets you in the quiet. In the moments where you don’t have the energy to explain how you feel, or even fully understand it. You’re supported. Bolsters, blankets, the shape holding you so you don’t have to hold yourself. Breath moving. Body slowly letting go in places you didn’t realize were holding so much. Reiki layered in, soft and steady, meeting you right where you’re at. Nothing to fix. Nothing to force. Just space to soften, to receive, and to feel supported in a way that doesn’t ask anything from you. And sometimes, that’s exactly what you needed. ?

If you’ve been thinking about trying yoga but keep telling yourself… “I’m not flexible enough” “I don’t have the right clothes” “I won’t know what I’m doing” You’re not alone. Most people feel this way before their first class. The truth is: you don’t need any of it. You just need to start. We’ll guide you through everything. We’ll meet you where you are. ?

There was something deeply felt in this space ? A heart opening cacao ceremony rooted in presence, intention, and community. Cacao has been used for generations as a gentle plant medicine, known for its ability to support connection, soften the edges, and open the heart in a grounded, steady way. The energy in the room was calm, safe, and real. Grateful for this community. Grateful to share in these moments. Grateful for the medicine that reminds us how to come back to ourselves. ???✨

✨Healing is not linear. It doesn’t move in a straight line or follow a perfect path. It loops, it slows down, and it asks you to sit with things you thought you had already worked through. But even in the moments that feel messy or unclear, something is shifting. Something is softening. And we’re here for all of it. ?

Why we offer options in every class. Because bodies change and needs shift from day to day. What feels supportive one week may feel like too much or not enough the next. Offering options allows you to listen to your body without pressure or comparison. It creates space to move with honesty, care, and self-trust rather than forcing yourself into a shape or pace that doesn’t feel right. At The Healing Loft, we believe yoga should meet you where you are. Your practice is allowed to look different every time you arrive. ✨

Join us for a heart opening Cacao Ceremony. Cacao itself has a very rich bitter taste and is high in iron, magnesium, and antioxidants. Cacao contains B-vitamins, and It has also been shown to promote immunity, lower blood pressure and cholesterol. It is also nature’s most concentrated source of theobromine; a psychoactive ingredient which stimulates and energizes the human body. Theobromine is derived from the Greek, theo (“god”) + broma (“food”) and so is known as “food of the gods”. Cacao provides a boost of energy without the crash of other stimulants.   On a chemical level cacao can help to increase the flow of blood and oxygen throughout the body releasing endorphins and dopamine, the feel-good hormones which open the pathways of love, creativity, healing and soul truths. With this in mind cacao has long been used as a medicine because of it’s power to connect the physical, mental and spiritual bodies promoting a more holistic sense of wellness.   In the modern world some promoted benefits in consuming cacao regularly include; increased creativity, compassion, conscious connection and spirituality as well as productivity and increased physical ability. @breathsacred #cacaoceremony #fullmoonenergy #plantmedicine #thehealingloft #cacao intentionsetting energyhealing breathwork fullmoonrelease healingjourney heartopening

Reiki Shares! ✨?? There is something deeply powerful about receiving Reiki in community.

This season asks for rest. I’m listening. We all move through seasons. Some are full, fast, and outward. Others ask us to slow down, soften, and rest. This is one of mine. Almost nine months pregnant. Listening more. Doing less. Honouring what my body actually needs. This is one of my favourite restorative poses. So supportive and grounding, and especially nourishing during pregnancy. Your season doesn’t need to look like anyone else’s. Just prioritize what’s true. Both the doing and the resting.

March marks a subtle shift. More daylight. A gentler nervous system. A quiet invitation to begin again. This season isn’t about doing more. It’s about listening, moving intentionally, and reconnecting with what feels supportive. Whether you’re craving strength, gentle movement, rest, or a sense of community, there’s space for you here. Come practise with us ✨

Sometimes the most powerful medicine isn’t complicated. It’s breath. It’s movement. It’s slowing down in a space where your nervous system can soften. This is the energy we try to create inside The Healing Loft every day. A calm space. A supportive community. A place to land. ?

A quiet reminder: the days are getting longer. the light is returning. and so is our energy. • light regulates sleep and mood • winter fatigue is physiological, not personal • energy rebuilds in cycles • slow movement improves blood flow • breath signals safety to the nervous system Save this for the slower days. ?

This is what intention looks like before a sound healing session. ?? • A calm, thoughtfully prepared space • Gentle lighting and grounding elements • Instruments placed with care • Presence over performance From the moment I walked into the space, everything felt calm. That doesn’t happen by accident. Care, intention, and energetic clearing happen long before the first sound is played. This is what allows the body to feel safe, so the nervous system can soften and respond. Holding space is the practice. It was an honour to create & facilitate my first sound healing training and witness Margot step fully into this work ??

✨Last night was Class 6 of 12 of the Reiki Master Practitioner Training Program with @thereikischoolofenergyhealing in-person @thehealingloft and this Sunday will be Class 6 of 12 for our online group! I’m continually delighted by these beautiful Reiki healers and the depth of commitment they are bringing to each class. This program is designed to truly empower Reiki Masters by strengthening professional credibility, deepening the client-practitioner relationship, and refining the flow of a Reiki healing session from the first introduction to the closing and beyond. We are exploring intuition development, multiple ways to assess the energy field, remote healing, pendulum work, ethics, scope of practice, and how to create safe, grounded, professional spaces where clients feel supported and open. The growth I am witnessing in confidence, sensitivity to energy, and integrity is powerful. ? What an honour to walk alongside these dedicated Reiki Masters as they step more fully into the role of Reiki Master Practitioner.✨✨✨ If you feel called to learn Reiki, whether to care for yourself, support friends and family, or step into professional practice as a Reiki Practitioner or Teacher, we would love to connect with you at info@thereikischoolofenergyhealing.com or at thereikischoolofenergyhealing.com. ✨✨✨ ✨?✨

In yoga, the breath doesn’t follow the movement. The movement listens to the breath. Introducing: Cue…The Breath ✨ This immersive 2.5-hour workshop is for both yoga students and teachers who are ready to explore breath as the bridge between movement, energy, and presence. Through pranayama, basic breathing physiology, bandhas, Ujjayi, Surya Namaskara, transitions, rest, and Savasana, this workshop will deepen how you move, cue, and experience breath on the mat. Breath is more than technique. It is timing, rhythm, and intelligence. It is the bridge between effort and ease, structure and flow within yoga practice. Date: Sunday March 1st Time: 12:30-3:00pm To register visit thehealingloftssm.com or comment BREATH below and we will send you the link.

• “I’m doing this wrong” • “Why can’t I stop thinking?” • “This feels uncomfortable” • “I should be doing something else” • “I don’t have time for this” • “Am I supposed to feel calm by now?” • Planning your day • Replaying conversations • Noticing every itch, ache, or sound None of these mean you’re bad at meditating.

The Energy Is Shifting✨ As we step into the Year of the Horse, a powerful shift invites us forward. This is a season of movement, vitality, and renewed momentum, where what has been quietly forming within begins to take shape through action. The Horse symbolizes freedom, courage, and trust in your own rhythm, reminding us that growth doesn’t come from force, but from alignment. This year encourages intentional movement. Listening to the body. Letting clarity guide the next step. It’s about saying yes to forward motion while staying grounded, honoring rest as part of progress, and allowing energy to move without pushing or urgency. The Year of the Horse invites us to step fully into our lives, present, embodied, and in motion. ?

Two beautiful ancestral healing gatherings in less than a week! My heart is full. ? One evening together was live on Zoom, and one was in person at The Healing Loft. Both were powerful in their own way. We explored ancestral healing through the lenses of intergenerational trauma, epigenetics, energy medicine, neurobiology, and Jungian healing. We shared pieces of our family trees, told stories, and opened space for what wanted to be seen and healed. Our group healing for the ancestors was deeply moving. Messages came through. There was such tenderness and strength in the room. Thank you to everyone who showed up with open hearts. It is sacred work. ❤️??❤️ There is so much we can transform and restore within our lineage when we choose to do this work consciously, not just for ourselves, but for those who came before us and those who will come after. If you feel called, I’ll be offering another ancestral healing group in April. Prerequisite is Second Degree Reiki. I would love to sit in circle with you. ?Namaste, Anne-Marie ✨??✨

Did you know stillness is a learned skill? From a nervous-system perspective, rest doesn’t automatically happen when we stop moving. If your system has spent a long time in “go mode,” it needs time and repetition to learn how to down-shift. When people begin yin or restorative yoga, they often notice: • difficulty staying still at first • a racing mind when movement stops • shallow or irregular breathing • subtle tension or restlessness These are signs of a nervous system that’s alert — not broken. With consistent practice, the experience often changes: • the breath naturally slows • muscles release without forcing • the mind becomes quieter over time • the body begins to recognize stillness as safe This is how the skill of stillness is built — through repetition, support, and time. So how long does it take? There isn’t a single timeline. Nervous systems learn gradually. For many people: • after 1–2 sessions, small shifts may appear • after a few weeks, stillness feels less uncomfortable • with regular practice over months, rest becomes more accessible both on and off the mat Stillness is one of the most valuable things we can learn, because it supports how we recover, regulate, and respond to stress. ??✨

☀️Sunday reminder Calm is not the starting point. It is the result. When the body has been stressed, busy, or overstimulated, slowing down can feel unfamiliar or even uncomfortable. That is not failure. That is regulation happening gradually. Stillness is most important when it feels hardest.

Peace doesn’t arrive once everything settles. It doesn’t wait for your inbox to clear, your schedule to slow, or life to feel easier. Peace begins when the nervous system feels safe enough to soften. When the breath slows. When the body is allowed to land, even while the world keeps moving. This is the work we come back to again and again. Learning how to meet yourself exactly where you are, with support, patience, and care. The world can stay loud. You’re allowed to find your quiet anyway ?

That quiet moment before class begins ? The room is set. Mats laid out. Bolsters placed with care. Lights softened. Candles on. The air already feels slower. Before anyone arrives, we’re creating the conditions for relaxation, so your nervous system doesn’t have to work so hard when you walk in. This part matters to us. Every detail is an invitation: to exhale to arrive to feel safe enough to let go.

Do you feel the energy of the February full moon? The February 1, 2026 full moon is the Snow Moon, rising in Leo. The Snow Moon carries the deep-winter wisdom of slowing down, conserving energy, and tending what truly matters. It’s a reminder that rest is not passive…it’s protective. Leo brings the heart into focus. This lunation gently highlights: • the heart space • authentic self-expression • creativity without pressure • being seen as you are, not as you perform Together, this moon invites a softer kind of courage — the kind that listens inward first. It’s not about pushing forward, but about honouring what wants warmth, care, and honest expression beneath the quiet of winter. So if this moon feels tender, reflective, or quietly illuminating rather than energizing, you’re right on time ??

Why we love the bolster to support rest: • It removes unnecessary effort from the body • It allows muscles to fully soften instead of subtly holding • It supports the nervous system in shifting out of “doing” mode • It creates a sense of safety and containment • It helps the breath move more freely and naturally • It makes rest feel accessible, not forced • It teaches the body how to rest, not just think about resting

The chakras are areas of the body and nervous system that hold information, experience, and memory. Each chakra relates to a different aspect of being human: safety, creativity, confidence, love, expression, intuition, and connection. When life feels overwhelming, stressful, or stuck, these centres often reflect it. This is because the body is responding intelligently to what it’s been through. Through yoga, meditation, breathwork, Reiki, sound, and restorative practices, we gently support the nervous system so these energy centres can soften and reorganize naturally. ✨Grounding practices support the root chakra, helping the body feel safe and settled ✨Slow, fluid movement and breath nourish the sacral chakra, supporting creativity and emotional flow ✨Strength, boundaries, and breath awareness support the solar plexus, our sense of self and confidence ✨Restorative practices and hands-on healing open the heart chakra, allowing space for compassion and repair ✨Voice, intention, and stillness support the throat and third eye, encouraging clarity and trust ✨Meditation and deep rest support the crown, reminding us we’re connected to something larger than effort alone We don’t force energy to move. We create conditions for the body to feel safe enough to let go. This is subtle work. And it’s powerful. ✨

Using Cards as a Meditation Practice Meditation doesn’t always have to start with silence. Sometimes it starts with a question. An image. A single word that gives your mind somewhere gentle to land. Pulling a card can be a beautiful doorway into meditation. Not for answers, but for awareness. How to use cards for meditation: ✨Take one slow breath before you pull ✨Ask a soft question like “What wants my attention today?” ✨Pull one card — no analysis, no overthinking ✨Sit with the image, colour, or word ✨Let it become your anchor instead of your breath ✨When the mind wanders, return to the card’s feeling There’s no need to “figure it out.” Let the message unfold through sensation, not logic. Save this for your next practice ?

Why do we always talk about the nervous system? Because you can be doing all the “right” things: moving your body, eating well, staying consistent and still feel tense, tired, or on edge. When the nervous system doesn’t feel safe, the body stays in protection. Muscles brace, breath shortens, and stress chemistry stays switched on. When the body feels safe, release happens naturally. Ease replaces tension and presence replaces worry. And the things that feel too easy, or not hard enough are often the things we need most. Simplicity. Doing less, on purpose. Sitting in silence without reaching for distraction. Breathing slowly, smoothly. All the way out. Pausing before reacting. Resting without earning it. These things don’t “look” productive, but they’re regulating. And regulation changes everything. This is the work. Slow. Intentional. Human.

One of the most advanced practices is this: sitting still with yourself, without needing to change anything. In ancient yoga traditions, many physical postures were practiced for one reason: to prepare the body to sit in meditation. Still. Breathing. Aware.

You didn’t come to yin yoga to change your life. You came because you were tired. Because your nervous system was overloaded, and because pushing through wasn’t working anymore. At first, yin felt uncomfortable in a way that had nothing to do with flexibility. Stillness was loud. The pauses brought things to the surface you’d been avoiding. Over time, something shifted. Yin taught you how to stay. To stay with sensation instead of escaping it. To stay with discomfort without immediately fixing or numbing. To listen rather than override. The practice didn’t stay on the mat. It softened how you respond instead of react. It taught you to rest without guilt. To release when your instinct was to brace. To trust the quiet wisdom of your body. Yin didn’t make you calm overnight. It taught your nervous system that it was safe to slow down. And from that safety, everything began to shift. • Come try yin with us. Sunday | 7:00pm Monday | 11:30am Tuesday | 7:00pm Friday | 6:45pm

The January 3, 2026 full moon is a Cancer Full Moon, also known as the Wolf Moon. Cancer is ruled by the Moon, which makes this full moon especially potent: emotionally, energetically, and for the nervous system. A Cancer full moon highlights: • emotional safety • home, rest, and belonging • the body’s needs • intuition over logic Paired with deep winter, it’s very much a “tend inward” moon rather than a push-forward one. It supports slowing down, feeling what’s been held, and choosing care over effort. So if it feels more emotional, tender, or regulating than motivating, that’s exactly the energy of this moon ?

There is a quiet power in the in-between. The space between where you’ve been and where you’re going. Between Christmas and the New Year. Between the inhale and the exhale. Between the noise of doing, and the stillness of being. Anchor into this moment. Let your shoulders soften. Let your breath slow. Let yourself be held by the pause. Before the next intention. Before the next step. Before the world speeds up again. There is wisdom here. Rest here. ??

Create space for what’s next. ?? As a new year begins, we’re invited to pause, listen, and reset. Like the ocean, life moves in cycles — waves arrive, waves pass. ✨ Practice: Close your eyes and listen to the sound of the ocean. With each inhale, imagine space opening within you. With each exhale, let go of what no longer needs to come with you. Then gently name one intention you’re carrying forward. What intention are you bringing into 2026? • @yandarayoga

Words carry energy. They linger, soften, and sometimes quietly change everything. A reminder from Donna Ashworth to say the things that matter — the kindness, the gratitude, the love — before the moment passes. ✨What seed will you plant today?

Winter Solstice ❄️ The Winter Solstice marks the longest night of the year. A biological and energetic turning point. With less daylight, our nervous system naturally shifts inward. Melatonin increases. Cortisol lowers. The body asks for rest, reflection, and conservation of energy. This isn’t a failure of motivation — it’s physiology. Yoga has always understood this. In yogic tradition, cycles of light and dark mirror cycles within the body and mind. Periods of activity are meant to be followed by periods of integration. Effort is balanced by rest. Movement by stillness. The solstice doesn’t demand immediate change. It marks the beginning of the return of light: minute by minute, day by day. This is how healing happens too. Not all at once, but gradually. Through consistent care, presence, and patience. Winter invites us to slow down not because something is wrong, but because something is reorganizing beneath the surface. So if you feel quieter, more introspective, or more tired… you’re not behind. You’re in rhythm. May this season remind you that rest is productive, stillness is intelligent, and light always returns (even when the process is subtle). ???✨

If your body has been asking for rest, this is your invitation. YOGA NIDRA - A Quiet Winter Light✨ Wednesday December 17 at 7:30PM This time of year can feel heavy — emotionally, mentally, physically. Even when there’s joy, the body often feels tired, and the mind is pulled in many directions. This Yoga Nidra practice is designed for anyone who feels: • overstimulated • run down • emotionally full • in need of true rest Before the rush of the holidays, this practice offers a chance to pause and reset. You’ll be guided into deep relaxation, allowing the body to soften, the breath to slow, and the nervous system to recalibrate. In this guided experience, you simply lie down comfortably and are led through breath, awareness, and gentle imagery (no effort required). Step into the season feeling more grounded, supported, and present… with rest that actually lands. ✨Why Yoga Nidra? Yoga Nidra is not sleep — and it’s not meditation in the way most people imagine. It’s a guided practice of conscious rest, where the body is invited to fully let go while the mind is gently led into a deeply relaxed, receptive state. In this state: ✨the nervous system shifts out of “doing” and into repair ✨stress hormones begin to soften ✨the body can rest more deeply than it often does during sleep Many people describe one Yoga Nidra session as feeling like hours of rest. If your body has been asking for rest, this is your invitation. We would love to hold space for you.

There’s truly nothing more powerful than your breath, and when you learn how to work with it consciously, everything begins to shift. In yoga, we return to the breath again and again because it’s simple, accessible, and profoundly transformative. Modern science supports what yoga has taught for thousands of years: slow, controlled breathing can activate the parasympathetic nervous system, lower stress hormones, improve oxygen efficiency, and increase mental clarity. Pause. Inhale. Exhale. Let your breath meet you right where you are. ?

☕️ Day 11 A Moment With Your Mug Small rituals can shift your whole nervous system when you do them with presence. ✨ Practice: Wrap your hands around your mug. Notice the temperature, the scent, the weight of it. Take a long inhale, exhale slowly.

Pairing warmth with slow movement relaxes fascia, lowers muscle tension, and calms the vagus nerve. What did your warm drink invite you to notice today?
