It was curiosity about her own chronic pain as a teenager that led to investigating over 20 healing modalities. As her health improved, she started to not only feel the benefits in her own body and mind, but see the changes that deep health brought to every aspect of life. She has trained in Hatha, Yin and Restorative Yoga, and most recently has been training with Mada Dalian to be a facilitator of the Self-Healing Dalian Method. This is profound work on the unconscious, beliefs, the shadow and ego. Since 2014 she has been working with individuals and groups, both in person and online, to promote well-being, health and raising consciousness. Her background in theatre, and organizing and delivering national events and ceremonies in Canada helped develop her knowledge in social ritual. Megan has a PhD on ‘The Performance of Belief’ from Queen Mary, University of London, UK, and has published, and taught widely on theatre and ritual. She is currently based on Prince Edward Island, Canada.
