about Laura Quinn (she/her)
I was born in San Francisco, but I call Toronto my home. I have had some things come easily in life, and others with great challenge. What I’ve learned is that as much as I used to want to control my life, be the director of all that I desired, that in fact the truest gift in life is to step down and let your heart and your soul inform you and then, have courage and act. Surrender. I have lived through the throes of life, the moments where I found myself on my knees, feeling broken and lost but I have always had a strong inherent sense of steadiness, of stability. That feeling is one that I was born with. I have also experienced miracles and beauty I never thought possible. I grew up in the world of spirit and ceremony. I understood healing, energy, intuition, and spirit from a very young age. I was introduced to many religions, traditions, and offered experiences travelling the world and exploring spirituality. I tended fire at sun-dance ceremonies, sat in temples in India and as a child served tea to woman gathered in circle preparing for child birth. I was heavily influenced by my mother and her strong feminine and also my father who embodies ministry in his work.
My greatest gift in life has been the blessing of my 3 children. They are my biggest teachers; my heart and I believe a big part of my purpose. I am a “truth seeker” and I stand for those who stand outside the circle. I have a voice and I can use it, though I am often quiet.
Qualifications:
I am an intuitive healer, certified Kundalini yoga teacher, women's circle group facilitator, ceremonialist, and sound healer. My specialty includes a focus toward Shuniya, in the Kundalini tradition this means the point of stillness. I believe in this stillness your highest potential flows through you. I also think there is a place and time where we need to speak out loud, we long to be seen and heard, witness and listen deeply, in a held space of community. This is different from therapy, and it’s different than speaking with your best friend, this is what we do in circle work. I feel blessed to share in soul care in ways that have supported me deeply over the years.
