Meet MJ!
I am a mother of two, environmental educator, author, yoga teacher, homesteader, creator of the concept of Hearth Parenting and a health and wellness advocate and coach working under the name VidyEssence. My mission is to create a radiant life for myself and my family that will inspire you to be your best self, to consciously live your life from love rather than fear while empowering your own being to be the master of your own health, living a life of freedom and prosperity. My deepest intention is to inspire people everywhere around the world to connect more deeply with Mother Earth, and themselves, for greater individual and global health. It always starts inside. Welcome home!
My Story
Here converge all my passions. I strongly believe in the fact that doing what you love, what you were called to do is one of the best secret to happiness in life. I knew this for quite a while, but thought later, when, if…Then, it would be the right timing. Well, the present moment is the only one we have for sure.
This is why one day I decided to jump on this new adventure and share my gifts with you. And of course in order to master, one first needs to learn.Life took care of sending me the message I need to grown andevolved. 2015 was the hiatus of it all.
This web site is a place where you can read and learn about:
Hearth Parenting™: This is a holistic view of parenting, encompassing conscious parenting as well as ecoparenting. Now more than ever, we need to create environments and model a way of life that foster children’s’ ability to growing into wise, response-able adults. Because of our rapid lifestyle and social changes, children who will possess the tools to adapt to life’s circumstances arising with poise and ease will be tomorrows’ leaders. We owe to all children a healthy, toxic-free and peaceful planet to live in and shairing my gifts is my way to lending a hand in this domain.

My work as an author. I am part of a group of French speaking experts writing books together The first title being published was Devenir Soi(free translation: Becoming Self) and another one is in the making. I am also in the process of writing my first book with a co-author and friend. More information about subject and publication date to come later this year. Keeping a little bit of suspense is fun!
Bloggingabout these previously mentioned passions but also including: environmental education and more precisely my work as a Green Living and positive discipline Coach (Certification dates to be announced), guiding people into a greener but also environmentally and emotionally healthy living spaces.
Yoga and homesteading. If you would pay me a visit at home, you would often find me in yoga pants and muddy boots. This is the reflection of my life as a yoga teacher, practitioner and homesteader living on a small farm in the making, inspired by permaculture. As I need to focus on some aspects of my career and personal life at this time, I am not currently teaching yoga but rest assure this will come in due time.
