Breathwork, Meditation and Ayurveda.
Ottawa, Gatineau and online.
I help wise, passionate, multitalented, humans open to a new way of being.
Hi, I’m Rachel (Briya).
My work is dedicated to serving your potential for self-healing and spiritual awakening.
I teach grounding, time-tested tools such as breathwork, meditation, Ayurveda and mystic wisdom to help you relax, and open to a new way of being in life.
The results? My clients say that it’s to become a version of yourself that’s more relaxed, connected, intuitive, vibrant and free. Basically, more of who you came here to be.
Curious to learn more? I’d love to hear from you.
My Approach
My approach is based in 15+ years of devoted practice to a feminine mystic lineage rooted in the Vedas and modern shamanism.
I spent my formative years sitting with elders in ceremony, exploring the subtle dimensions of the soul and this reality. It was a wild ride.
Clients say that my work comes from a depth of wisdom that’s rare for my age — and which supports them in a way that feels practical, transcendental and illuminating. This is where you come to ask deep questions and receive penetrating clarity and life affirming guidance.
I’ve worked with countless individuals across Canada and internationally — but my preference is for small groups and slow, deep relationships with those I serve.
It is my honour to walk this path with you.
Our work begins with your body, your breath, your self-commitment, and your openness.
From there, what you experience may surprise you.
Why are you here?
▽ Perhaps you’re here through a friend, who has transformed in our work together. Or we met me in person and you felt a resonance.
▽ Perhaps you’re here when a doctor suggested breathwork classes or meditation for anxiety or stress.
▽ Maybe you’ve tried therapy, books and yoga — but you’re looking for more. You’re tired of circling the same old loops in your mind, and want genuine guidance to take you deeper.
▽ Perhaps there’s nothing specifically "wrong" with you. You may be spiritually curious or highly self-aware, and are looking for support to go to the next level.
▽ Perhaps you’re at the edge of a major transition — a relationship, a career, a loss, a version of yourself that you’ve outgrown. You’re questioning old patterns and ready for a potent shift in perspective.
▽ Or perhaps you simply want to sit with a wise woman for an hour for insight into the unknown.
However you’ve arrived here — welcome.
What People Are Saying
“That session was everything! Were we saving the best for last?
You are a gift. An eloquent, neutral and validating presence with incredible wisdom.
This program has been one of the best investments I think I will ever make. It is truly something I wish everyone could experience for themselves.
I can honestly say I have never felt more connected to who I truly am. For now, just thank you! For your guidance, your loving awareness and for helping me begin to remember."
- KB, Consulting
“After searching high and low for different explanations, practices and practitioners to 'help me feel better', superficial improvements had been made but I still felt more disconnected from myself than ever.
I knew I needed guidance in connecting to my higher self and tangible recommendations that could help me get into alignment. Rachel has provided me with this and more.
She has been the truest form of guidance as a friend, teacher and source of inspiration.
I can seriously feel the impacts of the breath practices Rachel has provided, along with all of her recommendations. I am showing up more authentically, experiencing synchronicities and signs of alignment, and genuinely 'feeling better.'
I am so happy I took the leap to work with such an amazing teacher - I am so grateful to Rachel. (I could say more! Genuinely, thank you.)"
- KLB, Development Officer
“To experience a session with Briya Freeman is to journey into the very essence of existence. Her insight, profound and transformative, acts like the brilliant dance of the northern lights, guiding lost souls back home.
Through her breathwork and meditation guidance, I felt as if millennia of wisdom were being channeled directly into my core, revealing truths I'd been blind to. Her ability to see through the layers, to tap into the very heart of one's spirit, is nothing short of miraculous.
If you're on a quest for deeper understanding, for genuine transformation, let Briya be your compass."
- RD, Software Engineer
"Thank you for holding space in such a patient, powerful way.
When people ask what our sessions are like, I tell them "It's sort of like a spiritual hand holding" because a lot of this 'stuff' makes sense on an energetic level, but many of the layers we've explored together are complex and emotionally intense when attempted alone.
You've helped me gain clarity, peace, connection, confidence and I feel like we are only getting started.
We aren't meant to do this work alone, as you've shown me, but it is essential to find the right guidance, and people who understand the complexities of the spiritual path. Thank you for the work you do!"
