My approach to health
I am passionate about creative living. Living life with the same passion and drive as artists make art, carving out your unique path with every choice you make, guided by the powerful yet delicate force that lies within all of life.
In order to do this - to have the courage to bring forth your gifts, to do what makes your heart sing without following others, to be receptive enough to hear life’s guidance - you must have good health.
Vitality, Clarity and Connection are my three pillars of health, and the foundation for everything I do and teach.
Hi, I’m Aja
I’ve always been drawn to the things that make life feel alive. To me this consists of connecting people to their Spirit, and to each other. My favourite ways to celebrate this aliveness is through food, music, healing conversations, nature, movement, and stillness. I love learning what makes people light up. Doing what I can to help them soften and drop their tension. And creating experiences that help them get a little closer to who they are underneath the conditioning, the beliefs and the limitations.
Cooking is just one of the ways I do that. It’s how I connect with people, with the elements, with something bigger than me. When I cook, I feel present. Grounded. Curious. It’s not about perfection or impressing anyone, it’s about creating something real and nourishing from whatever’s in front of me. Co-creating with life’s treasures. And using food as an act of love to others.
I’m endlessly inspired by the creative intelligence behind all of life, especially how it interacts with our body, how we can access it through nature, and the ways we can turn ordinary moments into something sacred by simplifying, appreciating and making space in our day for the unseen.
As our world gets ever more complicated and disconnected, I love finding beauty in the simple things. With good friends and a healthy bit of not-taking-ourselves-too-seriously, we remember and affirm our connection to Source.
