Our Story
Brayden and Jacqueline have been on their life journey together for over 10 years, and are now married with 2 kids. They initially bonded over their passion for extreme sports, health and fitness, enjoying training together and pursuing physical achievements in competition and their work as stunt performers in the film industry. As they grew together, navigating life’s challenges, spirituality and self inquiry practises became a more important and vital part of their lives. Through their spiritual evolution and application of the powerful tools they were learning, individually and as a couple, they found an increasing capacity to respond to hardships, and a deeper level of understanding and compassion. They naturally began sharing what they were learning through conscious breathing and meditation classes. This was a huge part of their journey towards a profound sense of meaning and deeper connection with themselves and others. Eventually the inspiration to be of service in a greater capacity arose, and the idea to create a spiritual centre, “My Heart’s Path” was born.
What are people saying about their experiences at MHP?
“I feel so blessed and grateful to be able to share and connect with others as we grow in awareness together! It has become very clear to me, love is the way!” - Brayden
Brayden lives from his heart with passion, and is devoted to the awakening of present moment awareness, wisdom and love. His presence is warm and he facilitates with discernment and care. His own awakening journey, and all the guidance, support and love he has received along the way, inspires his enthusiastic sharing, and teaching. Brayden points us inward to discover truth for ourselves with direct experience. Often reminding us to approach practise and life with a "beginner's mind", he continues to learn and grow in awareness and compassion along with his students. Brayden
is very devoted to his spiritual evolution and has sat in many ceremonies, retreats, and trainings in Ontario, Quebec, Mexico, and Peru. He has shadowed, learned from and facilitated alongside experienced guides and teachers, absorbing the best practices and is continually refining the excellence of his offerings. Brayden’s approach is unique as it includes the non-dual pointers that arise from his direct experiences of samadhi, while honouring and attending to the physical human experience and tender human heart. His approach is comprehensive and based in experiential understanding. Brayden’s facilitation includes somatic, therapeutic, relational, and trauma informed methodologies, personalized to each participant. He is a certified Breathwave Conscious Breathing Facilitator and Meditation Teacher - graduate of the 2 year Mindfulness Meditation Teacher Certification Program under Jack Kornfield and Tara Brach. He draws on many teachings of awareness and love, with a special place in his heart for the teachings of the Buddha and Jesus. Brayden does not ask you to believe anything, but instead to question everything you believe and seek sincerely, inquiring with patience, persistence and discernment to find what is true.
“Know that you are enough! Every moment is an opportunity to remember this and begin again.” - Jacqueline
Jacqueline has a calm, caring and joyful presence that is beautiful and supportive when doing deep spiritual work. She is a new mother, and exudes a healing unconditional loving energy. She facilitates in a very present and intuitive way leaving participants feeling grateful and appreciative. They often report, “That was exactly what I needed in that moment!” She especially loves to hold space for inner child healing, and the awakening of forgiveness, compassion and self love as this has been such an important part of her healing journey. She enjoys training for her profession as a stunt performer in the film industry, various extreme sports, and Ice cross downhill. She also loves nature, music, travel, animals, fitness and spending time with her husband Brayden, son Noah, and her cats Milo and Mogli. She is a certified Breathwave Conscious Connected Breathing facilitator and has worked along side many experienced guides in her training with the breath, and medicine ceremonies. She has been facilitating breathwork and medicine ceremonies with Brayden for 6 years and continues to learn and evolve as a guide, and conscious human being. Her passion for this work has blossomed out of her own spiritual journey and relational healing work. Jacqueline is devoted to following her heart’s path and enjoys the continuing expansion of her spiritual awareness and understanding through her own self work, teaching and the reflections of this community. One of the biggest lessons she has realized is that true fulfilment comes from within. “When I love myself unconditionally, everything else falls into place!”

FAQs
+ Do I need any prior experience to attend?
No! We welcome newcomers and experienced participants alike with open arms! Some offerings will be better suited to you than others depending on your intentions and circumstance. Continue reading and check out our offerings to see what feels right for you.
+ Why do people generally attend?
Every participant is unique and each has their own individual life experience that brings them to us. Some are simply curious and interested in exploring or trying something new. Many are on their spiritual journey and seeking for more. Some need emotional healing, relief from anxiety, stress or depression. Others are struggling in relationships, or need clarity on life decisions. Some are feeling alone, or dealing with grief or feelings of meaninglessness in life. Some are working through traumatic experiences and need support and comfort in order to heal. Many are looking for community and connection with like minded people, or a place to have fun and express themselves authenticlly. Although we each have different stories there is a universality to the inevitable suffering and beauty of human life. We are much more alike than we are different. Every human being wants to feel joy, peace, and love. We all want to feel accepted and connected, to be acknowledged and appreciated. We want to be healthy, happy, whole, and free of suffering. We want to meet our life with presence and an open heart! We feel that this desire is at the root of our seeking, and ultimately it’s this similitude that brings us together on our heart’s journey. We feel that eventually the time comes for each of us, when we feel the call to something greater. Our mission is to offer safe and effective guidance and practices to facilitate this endeavor. Whatever your reason might be, we welcome you and look forward to getting to know you! Let’s let this work be an offering in celebration of the gift of life!
+ What's the best offering to begin with?
We recommend either booking a private meditation or conscious breathing session, joining our weekly group meditation class on zoom (Saturday mornings at 8:00am EST) or attending one of our group conscious breathing sessions. Go to our offerings page to learn more and see what feels right for you.
+ What should I bring when coming to a Conscious Breathing or Guided Meditation class?
Please wear comfortable clothing that allows you to breathe fully and easily into your belly and chest and a sweater (or similar removable clothing) to allow you to adjust your body temperature to your comfort. Bring your water bottle, a journal, and an open mind! :) The rest will be provided.

You may cancel up to 48 hours before your session and receive a full refund. If you cancel in less than 48 hours you will be charged in full for the session. Thank you for your understanding.
+ Can I book a session for my friend or family member?
No, each participant must book for themselves, and complete the required preparation protocols. As much as we can all think of that person who “needs to do this” it is important that they actually have the desire for themselves. This is deep spiritual work that must be approached willingly by each participant! We appreciate your referrals and look forward to hearing from them directly!

Yes, we are happy to co-create a private session with you and your group. Each participant will need to go through the required preparation protocols. Please contact us to discuss and book your session.

Yes, Conscious breathing, meditation and presence practises are very beneficial to introduce to children. However, this is not something that can or should be forced, the child must be interested for themselves. We must specifically tailore the class to their age and attention spans, so we adjust accordingly on a case by case basis. Send us an email for inquiries. You must be at least 21 years of age to participate in medicine ceremonies.
+ Do I need to be spiritual or religious to attend?
No, we welcome people from all backgrounds, beliefs and outlooks. Whether you consider yourself an atheist, agnostic, religious, spiritual or anything else, we are happy to have you join us!
