A Seeker - A Dreamer -A Creative - A Nature Lover

Based in Victoria BC Canada

Hello, my name is Lex. I am very grateful to live in the beautiful city of Victoria, BC Canada.
I deeply acknowledge that I work, love, create, play and I am very honoured to live on the land of the Lkwugen First Nations.

I am a woman who adores the ocean and forest, and I spend as much time in both as I can.
I love yoga, meditation, breathwork, plant medicines, and I incorporate these practices into my daily life.
I adore music, dancing, painting, & connecting with my soul family. Humour is an integral part of my existence & I always make sure to find  time for laughter and play.  I am a raw, deep, authentic, passionate and playful human who is committed to becoming the fullest version of myself. 
I have gone through immense grief and trauma in my life, particularly throughout my childhood. I know how hard it is to carry the weight of the past, and how exhausting it is to constantly be in survival mode. I also gone through deep waves of depression, anxiety, loneliness, heartbreak & addiction. I have dealt with chronic health problems since I was a child, as well as gone through a period of intense illness.  I have often felt out of place on this planet for most of my life, until I started to enter into alignment with my purpose and find my soul family & tribe. 
Because of what I have gone through, I am deeply passionate about helping others. I know what it's like to feel so alone & feel very sick. I am dedicated to being a true support in my client's lives. I know what it's like to feel lost in mystery of life, and how relieving it is to have someone to witness you in your process. 
I am integrative & holistic practitioner, and I love to bring elements of all my trainings into my sessions.

I am forever a humble student of life, and am constantly enrolling myself in trainings. I am consistently doing the inner work & I have practitioners I see consistently. I sit in group ceremonies throughout the year, as well as practice my own solo therapeutic sessions. 

I am dedicated to becoming my most raw authentic self in this lifetime, and my prayer is that I can hold space for my clients to do the same.

I can't wait to meet you, and it's my absolute honour that you are including me in your journey.

"I can’t think of any other individual who I’d rather see in terms of holistic life coaching after having experienced sessions with Lex and now knowing what she offers. She effortlessly creates a grounding and safe learning environment making you feel very comfortable, which undoubtedly flows organically and ease fully . I have already gained so much from the few sessions I have had with her, reassuring the quality of her sessions. I will continue to see Lex and would recommend her to all!"

"Before I met with Lex for a breathwork session, my only experiences with breathing exercises had been various techniques taught to me in yoga classes over the years as well as me playing around with the Wim Hoff Method [WHM] for just over a year. 
I greatly appreciated that Lex took them time to lay out exactly how her breathwork session would be structured and what sensations can come up. It gave me a sense of security and certainly didn’t buffer my excitement for the session. Once we commenced with the actual breathwork, it didn’t take long until I could grasp the power and beauty of this work. By the end of the session, I felt rejuvenated and satisfied in the way you feel accomplishment after working through some emotional barriers. It was beautiful, all in all. 
I can highly recommend it as a very versatile tool while healing from a health condition or as a resource to take your wellbeing to the next level.”

"I went to my first breathwork session expecting relaxing breathing techniques. I had no idea I would be blown into the depths of my being and feeling more connected then ever to my spirituality. I was able to completly let go because of the safe container lex provides for deep healing. She is deeply intuitive and guides you to embrace your inner heart warrior and breathe through physical and spiritual blockages in your life. I am so grateful for the healing I experienced. She knew the right touch, right mantra, right positioning I needed. An angel accompanying you on your journey."

"As a skeptic, and someone who prides himself on the ability to maintain control of my body and mind, I was unsure of what I could take away from the Aletheia breathing workshop. The result, however, was life changing. It does not matter if you are spiritual, or open to the idea of revealing buried emotions. The hyper-oxygenation of your tissues is such a powerful and transcending physical sensation that is more lucid and invigorating than an orgasm or a marathon. Let alone the guided meditation that Lex leads throughout the workshop threw me into a mental hurricane in which I felt sadness and anxiety, suppressed years before, come steaming out of every corner of my body. When I walked into the yoga studio that evening I was most definitely not expecting that in one hour I would be on my back, panting and weeping, a new man."

"I trained Lex in Breathwork Facilitation in 2014 in Victoria BC. Since that time, I have witnessed her blossom as she steps up to organize and lead breathwork gatherings around western Canada. Lex is an incredibly skilled Breathwork guide due to her innate capacity to nurture and hold compassionate, joyful space. Her engaging, intelligent delivery of the principles and practices makes the experience accessible to everyone.
I trust that anyone journeying with Lex will be very well supported and leave transformed. She has an insatiable curiosity and I am excited to see where she goes with Breathwork."

"Give yourself the time to relax, honor, and appreciate all that you do have, and what you've accomplished. Last night I did my first breathwork journey, that also included sound- hosted by two beautiful human beings. I released sounds, deep breaths, toxins, and eventually, I continued my journey inward, finding wants to come out, and what needs to be processed through. But I accept and choose this path. Today, I woke up lighter. It feels as if something literally is no longer inside me and weighs me down. After having a solid sleep of no interruptions, I cannot really describe much more of what I am feeling today. Thank you Ocian and Lex for the amazing evening, Blessing to you."

"Breathwork is a powerful tool! I enjoy gaining such deep insight into myself and going down the rabbit whole with the power of Breath! Lex is a teacher that allows me to feel safe and taken care of while letting go and giving into breath. Her guidance and calm are two very important pillars for a healthy Breathwork session. Especially her way to relate to the group and create a community feeling after the successful Breathwork helped integrate the new depth into daily life!"

"Lex is an incredible space holder, community builder, facilitator and breathwork circle holder. She has a sense and knowing and intuitive touch in and out of circle. Lex explains everything clearly so participants know what to expect before, during and after each session. As a sound practitioner, we continue to offer many breathwork and sound journeys over the last 3 years together. She makes my experience and offering so easeful as we were able to non-verbally communicate and we deeply trust each other in our own roles. She is so intuitive and open to each person and is able to balance each persons experience with the group needs with incredible ease. I look forward to more offerings together."
