Welcome to your healing journey!
You’re in the right place if you want to be seen and supported on your self-healing journey.
Hi, I’m Sherry Rothwell. I guide you to find your own answers and honour you as the authority on your health.
My approach supports you to take radical action for your health, while still enjoying life—because optimal health should give you freedom and open you to more nourishment, not less. That's why we start with what's doable and inspiring for you from where you are right now. Together, we'll create a path that transforms your diet, lifestyle, body and beauty, helping you step fully into your purpose.
Who I am as a practitioner....
I am focused on helping you find and pull out the root causes of your health issues, as opposed to just suppressing your symptoms. I love going down the rabbit hole. Together, we’ll explore and work through the layers of diet, lifestyle, mindset challenges, emotional wellbeing, and soul-level imbalances that often lie at the heart of dis-ease.
With compassion, intention, and deep respect, I am honoured to walk beside you as you walk the path of self healing and optimal health.
The Formal Stuff
I hold dual certifications as a Holistic Nutritionist with honours from the Edison Institute of Nutrition (2006) and the Canadian School of Natural Nutrition (2009) - where I was formally an instructor from 2012 to 2024. I’m also a GAPS Certified Practitioner (2010), a Bio-Individuality Coach™ (2024), and have received specialized training in Ayurvedic Nutrition and Medical Astrology (2024). I am currently in my 3rd year of studying herbal medicine at Pacific Rim College
This rich foundation allows me to offer a truly individualized and integrative approach—one that draws from both modern science and ancient wisdom to support you on your unique path to health and healing.
Healing is a Journey
I believe….
I believe symptoms should be addressed, not suppressed, and that our challenges in health are catalysts for growth and freedom. I believe that pleasurable eating is as much nourishment to the soul, as it is to the body. I believe that we are all self healers and that we all need connection and community in healing too. I believe that the healing path is a journey of awakening to the transformation that is required to return to us to who we really and what we came here to this planet to do….I believe that disease happens ‘for’ us, not ‘to’ us.
How I awakened to the path….
My journey started on the west coast in the 90's where I spent my days immersed in chemicals as an esthetician, working inside a hair salon (double toxic exposure). In those days you could find me painting nails by day, and spending my nights chain smoking pot and cigarettes. It wasn’t long though before I became sick on the fumes and traded in my high heels for Birkenstocks (metaphorically speaking, I would never wear those, haha) and I gave up ‘the grunge’ for all things natural.
That was when I first took responsibility for my own health and healed myself from acne, yeast infections, PMS, paranoia, mono and depression using only whole foods, energy medicine and natural remedies. If you want to hear more about that, check out this video on my Youtube Channel.
I was so excited to share my discoveries of how to tap into the body’s innate healing forces, that I gave up my career as an esthetician, to work in health food stores so that I could spend my days immersed in natural health.
My journey took me from aesthetics, to managing health food stores, to owning my own holistic mom and natural birth baby store, to working as a birth doula - to practicing and teaching holistic nutrition at both the community and professional level.
Who I am as a person...
You'll love working me if you have an open and curious mind with an insatiable desire to learn, grow, discover and explore new experiences.
- I love simplicity of natural - but I also like luxuriously rustic pleasures (like the warm glow of a wood burning fireplace ....or steamy winter hot tub nights under the moon light!)!
- I love deep conversation and delicious food (with a glass of dry certified organic red wine or a shot of mescal with Kombucha).
- I have a "thing" for the moon, but warm sunshine, a good book, with some dark chocolate and piping hot coffee is my sweet spot!
- My soul loves the buzz of community, adventure & travel - I am always up for a road trip, a plant medicine journey or any other way to explore altered states of consciousness.
- If you know astrology, I'm a Gemini sun in the 4th house (Mercury, IC, Venus), Pisces (Moon, Rising, AX) and Leo in the 6th house with Saturn and Mars placements.
