our story
What happens when you have several successful businesses and
more fabulous ideas than you can keep up with?
Well… it seems only logical to gather forces and put everything
together in one place where they can intrinsically compliment
each other!
'The Breath Connection' is an integration of Breath Therapy Classes, Shake Topicals, Energy and Rehab Workshops and three successful private practices.
It is a place where we can grow together as women entrepreneurs, support other healers in our community, and truly help YOU to
heal YOU!
Marnie, Liesl & Debbi bring different knowledge, experience and modalities to this beautiful space, along with a shared vision and
passion to help a million people heal themselves… one sweet
breath at a time!
breathe. laugh. support. love.
Marnie
I am a mom, a new grandma (yippee!) and a medicine woman! My job on this planet is to whisper “Sweet Goddess… it is time to wake up. It is time to use your breath to heal your body. It is time to step into your power. It is time to bring balance!”
​
My formal education is in massage therapy and exercise rehabilitation. I have been able to see people’s energy fields all of my life, particularly how breath moves and affects the energy flows in the physical body. The first 20 years of my career were spent in the physio clinic teaching clients to reduce their pain with breath patterns and exercises.
​
In 2015, I got really sick with the thyroid disorder… Hashimoto's. Conscious breathing certainly helped… but I needed to go deeper! I began to observe my thoughts, meditate, gather rehab tools and shower my body with proactive love.
​
The results were incredible and I have been teaching my private and corporate clients how to reduce their body pain and heal themselves, with our breathe. observe. apply. love. method, ever since!

I have been labeled all kinds of weird for most of my life and some of those labels are well deserved! When I decided to accept and settle in to my weirdness by my mid 20's, I soon discovered the wonderful world of intuitive healing and felt like I had finally found my place.
I have always been a big believer in your thoughts create your experience and have employed this belief in so many facets of my life. This belief has been challenged at times with chronic pain and sometimes temporarily forgotten in the face of extreme adversity but with conscious awareness I always get back to where I need to be.
Almost a decade ago I learned (from Marnie) a valuable technique that literally changed my relationship with my body and pain - I learned
how to move and direct breath through my body. Partnering that with observing my thoughts was a game changer!
My particular niche is working therapeutically with essential oils. I have
over 25 years experience helping myself and others heal physically and emotionally with these beautiful and powerful plant essences.
I am a Registered Aromatherapist® with my own private practice and provide consults and essential oils blends to suit individual needs. If you would like to book a consult please email me!

I love life… yes, such a cliché! I believe life is a series of events (sure, some are unfortunate) in which we get to experience ourselves; our resilience, our courage and how we love. I am unapologetic in my optimism and will always believe that things work out… the proof is in the fact that I have survived 100% of every experience I have had to date… and so have you! Haha, I love that!
In my formal trainings, I have received certifications in Intuitive Coaching, Astrology, Breath Therapy, and Yoga. The commonality that I discovered in each of these trainings was meditation… I am in awe of the vastness of strength, insight and wisdom that is made available to me when I pause, breathe and sit in my own stillness.
In 2013 I had the pleasure to own a small store with an amazing business partner. Every Wednesday night for the entire time we owned the store, we held a drop-in meditation night. The gatherings were meager at first… even though I believed that meditation was a powerful way to ground and reset; I was awe-struck as I witnessed participants come out every week and grow in their confidence, heal their relationships, reset their bodies and build community! Our meager gatherings grew to overflowing, as our amazing meditators realized their ability to heal, forgive and expand!
Since that time, I have continued to serve clients and students in my private practice. Watching someone discover that they are enough, that they matter, they make a difference and that they are loved… as they pause, breathe and connect with their own stillness in order to heal and reset… humbles me beyond words and is why I will do this work always! ♥
