About Heart Lotus

Hi, I’m Evangeline

I’m the founder of Heart Lotus Health and I have been in the health sector for over twenty years after experiencing a turn around in my own health. I began as a health practitioner with a Massage Therapy practice in 2001, which soon evolved into an alternative health practice when I incorporated Ayurveda and Yoga. Little did I know then that the evolution of a body-mind-spirit perspective would be embraced down the road to meet clients’ need for integrative and supportive health care.

With individual sessions, the “hetu”, or root causes of your current situation, as known in Ayurveda, will be uncovered, providing us with a clear road map towards balanced health. One-on-one sessions provide personalized, effective care to relieve symptoms, uncover underlying causes, and fortify your health with food, spices, herbs, self-care routines, yoga and bodywork as these are all viewed as medicine to naturally bring you long lasting health and resilience. Bespoke group sessions are customized to your needs in creating a rewarding, embodied experience of holistic healing.

I look forward to working with you to harmonize your health from the ground up with time tested, effective solutions.

My Story

With the birth of my daughter and separation from my first spouse, I was catapulted into a powerful awakening – a spiritual shift that completely redefined the meaning and purpose of my life. For most of my twenties it was a search for happiness with misguided views, and a confused, unrealistic view of myself and the world that would have me feeling a false sense of happiness, and dissatisfaction. The turning point was an act of surrender and letting go of deep rooted attachments and held beliefs. As they began to be dismantled embracing my inner strength naturally unfolded. I turned the corner, abandoning limiting beliefs and taming self-doubt. Dreams previously unfulfilled, blossomed into reality one by one which I believe was because I reconnected with my inner joy, and allowed transformation to unfold without struggle, giving way to life giving, supportive actions that led me to meditation, Ayurvedic cooking and yoga to sustain my new life. The journey continues and what keeps flourishing is my dharma to help others create health, resilience and inner peace.

I am a Registered Massage Therapist, Registered Yoga Teacher and Ayurveda Educator with training in Sri Sri Yoga, Mindfulness Meditation, and Shaka Vansiya Ayurveda’s Pulse Assessment, Transdermal Marma System and Panchakarma. Shaka Vansiya Ayurveda is utilized as an alternative and adjunctive treatment for medical conditions.

I have active registration with CMTO and Yoga Alliance. I studied Ayurveda from Vaidya Rama Kant Mishra in Canada and California, and Yoga with Art of Living Canada and Art of Living India. I continue to deepen my studies with Shaka Vansiya Ayurveda, Art of Living and University of Toronto-School of Continuing Studies.
