Meet Isabelle - The Person

Near the water’s edge, I live in Vancouver, British Columbia where I provide a loving home to my inquisitive and fun teens: Natasha 12 years old and my son Misha 15.   I like to explore, walk, travel, attend great events with them and be of support to their growth and I enjoy sharing some simple moments at home.

Beyond my work, the time I spend being present to my children or to my friends, I love to unleash my creativity in various endeavors. With my passion for evocative words and the language of the soul, I sometimes take an intentional pause and allow a poem to come through me.   And between the vibrant colors of soft pastels, or the shimmering of gemstones and pearls, I enjoy creating works of art or jewelry to adorn. As well, I have a strong relationship with colors that finds expression in the wearing of artfully crafted clothing.  I particularly adore shawls of natural fibers that are created by textile artists from around the world.
 
An inspired momentum characterizes my life which I strive to keep in a balance between my emotional, spiritual, psychological and physical needs.  Yoga helps me to return to equanimity during times of stress and to a sense fluidity and ease after hours of writing at the computer. As well, I love to give myself over into the music of 5-Rhythms dance or to move in the midst of a drumming circle. Although I inhabit an urban area, I often feel drawn to nature to renew my spirits.  I meditate daily so that I can be anchored in the waters of inner peace and listen to inner guidance as I chart the course of my days, my endeavors and my life.
