Bouchra's Journey

My name is Bouchra El Amine, and I am a trauma-informed energy healer, plant medicine guide, and holistic coach. I am trained in Reiki, Qigong, somatic practices, and sacred space holding, as well as a sound bath guide, breathwork facilitator, and feminine embodiment coach.

My Journey: From Seeker to Healer

I was born and raised in Morocco, where my early years were shaped by rich traditions, deep spirituality, and a connection to the unseen. In 2000, I moved to Canada, living between Montreal and Toronto before settling in Windsor/Essex in 2021. 

My journey into healing was not one I sought out, it was one that found me.

Before I stepped into this path, I was just like you, seeking answers, searching for ways to heal, grow, and understand life’s challenges. I walked through severe mental and emotional struggles, navigating traditional Western approaches such as psychotherapy, medication, and structured wellness routines. Despite my efforts, something was missing.

A turning point came when I was introduced to Reiki. At the time, my logical mind struggled to grasp the idea of energy healing, but the experience left me in a profound state of well-being I couldn’t ignore.

That moment ignited a deep curiosity within me, and I knew I wanted to learn how to facilitate healing for others the way I had just experienced.

I immersed myself in energy work, Eastern philosophies, somatic healing, and plant medicine. My studies led me to train under renowned teachers, shamans, and trauma specialists, integrating both scientific and ancestral approaches. 

Over time, I developed my own intuitive healing method, combining healing touch, acupressure, energy transmissions, and sacred breathwork to support deep transformation.

The Work I Do Today

Healing is not just about relieving pain: it’s about reconnecting with yourself, remembering your wholeness, and reclaiming your power. 

My work blends:

✔ Energy Healing & Somatics – Reiki, Qigong, sound therapy, and trauma-informed breathwork.
✔ Mind-Body Connection – Feminine embodiment, intuitive movement, and emotional release work.
✔ Spiritual & Transformational Coaching – Helping you align with your truth, purpose, and authentic self.

✔ Sacred Plant Medicine – Ceremonial journeys with deep integration and nervous system support.

Through one-on-one healing sessions, women’s circles, retreats, and ceremonial work, I hold space for people seeking healing, clarity, and deep transformation.

Who I Serve

I work with individuals who are ready to:
- Heal past wounds and release emotional blockages.
- Reconnect with their inner wisdom and intuitive power.
- Regulate their nervous system and find lasting balance.
- Step into alignment and live from a place of wholeness.

Healing is a journey, one that requires trust, surrender, and commitment. I am here to walk alongside you, to hold space for your transformation, and to remind you of the incredible power within you.

If you feel called to work together, let’s connect.

Energy surrounds us, is within us and we are all made of energy, and therefore working with our energy is vital to regaining our power and holistically managing ourselves. 

How successful we come out from hardships and struggle depends on how much work we decide to put in to the journey to healing and wellness. I am here to help in that journey, wherever you are at. The hardest step is the first, the step to surrender and trust. With a little guidance and nudge in the right direction, we can achieve so much. 

I believe that we are all fundamentally able to change and that we can all rejoice in our blessings, and be our very best selves with a deep dive within, a little help, focus, consistency, faith, perseverance and of course energy work, to work with our inner self and live in consciousness.

One of my core values is to be of service, contribute to spread love, joy and light around me, in any way that I can, to the best of my abilities, with integrity, compassion and with my best intentions at heart. I trust in the divine alignment of things and that life happens for us, not to us. We are all connected, we don't cross paths with people randomly. There is a divine plan, and all is meant for our highest good.

If we choose to look beyond our mere existence as one, we can strive to create something better for us, a way of coming together and empowering each other.  

I am here for it all! I am here to serve the collective to elevate and expand in kindness to self and others.

There are moments in life when we realize that the path we are on no longer serves us. Something deep inside whispers that there is more: more to understand, more to heal, more to become. 

My journey has been one of seeking, breaking, rebuilding, and ultimately finding the profound wisdom that now guides my work.

I share a little of my story here not just to tell you where I’ve been, but to show you what is possible. To remind you that healing is not only about overcoming, but about reclaiming your power, remembering who you are, and reconnecting with the divine essence within you.

This is my journey, from the beaches of Morocco to the sacred healing traditions of the world, from trauma and loss to deep spiritual awakening, from searching for meaning to stepping fully into my purpose. This is how I found my way to energy healing, plant medicine, and the path of guiding others through their own transformation.

If you have ever felt lost, if you have ever searched for something greater, if you have ever wondered whether healing is truly possible, I hope my story reminds you that it is.

I have always felt deeply connected to the Earth, the elements, and the grand creation of the Divine. I grew up by the beaches of Rabat, Morocco, where the ocean became my sanctuary. The scent of the sea, the taste of salt in the air, the rhythmic crashing of the waves, all of it nourishes me to this day, grounding me in my essence. The sand anchors me, the ocean renews me, and the vastness of it all humbles me, reminding me of my oneness with the Divine.

My journey into energy healing and spiritual awakening began in 2012 on a beach in Miami. That city holds a special place in my heart because it was there that I experienced many  moments of pure enlightenment.

One evening, as I walked along the shore, I found a quiet spot, sat down, and placed my hands on the sand. Suddenly, a wave of energy surged through my body, pulsing at the crown of my head. As I closed my eyes, I was enveloped in a bright white light, a sensation I had never experienced before. When I opened my eyes, I looked up to see a single cloud in the sky—shaped like a face, staring at me. In that moment, I felt as if God Himself was revealing His presence to me, letting me know that I was seen, guided, and held.

That moment set everything into motion. 

Books began flying off shelves in front of me. People started entering my life at the exact moments I needed guidance. The Universe was speaking to me.

This awakening ignited an insatiable curiosity for understanding the deeper truths of life, beyond what I had been taught. I began exploring different spiritual traditions, beyond my birth religion of Islam. I traveled to Israel, walking through its sacred sites, and studied Judaism. I met Tibetan monks, immersed myself in Buddhism, and explored yoga, meditation, mudras, sound baths, and dream interpretation. My journey took me across Europe, South Africa, Cambodia, Colombia, and beyond, each place bringing me closer to the universal threads that connect us all.

This path of self-discovery and healing eventually led me to plant medicine and psychedelics, expanding my understanding of the mind, the subconscious, and the nature of reality.

My search was not just spiritual, it was deeply personal to face my own shadows. I carried trauma layered within my being. I had experienced:

• Childhood trauma and sexual abuse.
• Addiction and self-destructive patterns.
• The unbearable grief of losing my younger brother at just 24 years old.
• The pain of losing my father.
• Heartbreak, betrayal, and personal failure.
• Dropping out of university, only to later rebuild my academic journey.
• A high-paced career in business consulting and political lobbying, where success masked my inner turmoil.
• An abusive marriage, divorce, and the challenges of single motherhood.
• 
  

I had reached a point where I could no longer escape the pain. I needed an out

: a real, lasting transformation.

One day in Montreal, I had my first Reiki session. I walked in as a skeptic but left with a newfound sense of clarity and empowerment. That session planted a seed, a call for change.

From that point, I fully committed to my healing. I sought out therapy, group counseling for grief and abuse survivors, massage therapy, hypnotherapy, breathwork, and meditation.

 I worked with shamans and plant medicine facilitators, sitting in Ayahuasca and psilocybin ceremonies to uncover and release the pain that had been woven into my being.

I cleansed my energy, my home, my relationships: saging, meditating, purging, and rebuilding. 

I prayed, journaled, created vision boards, and practiced moon rituals and intention-setting. 

I dove into the teachings of Tony Robbins, attending his seminars "Unleash the Power Within" and "Date with Destiny" which were pivotal in my transformation.

And finally, after years of deep personal work, I was ready to serve others.

With everything I had learned and embodied, I knew I had to share this wisdom. I started volunteering in women’s shelters, grief support groups, and domestic abuse centers. 

The more I served, the more I realized that healing wasn’t just about understanding: it was about feeling, releasing, and reclaiming one’s power.

But I wanted to go deeper. I wanted to unlock the ability to truly facilitate healing at an energetic level. That’s when Reiki found me. I was given the opportunity to receive my Reiki initiation, and I never looked back.

Since 2018, I have practiced Reiki, and in 2019, I began teaching. I have had the privilege of working with hundreds of clients, guiding them through their own transformations.

I don’t claim to have life all figured out, but every day, I wake up committed to my mission—to help others find their way back to themselves.

I continue to study, learn, and grow, currently pursuing my Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology at Yorkville University and studying Spinal Flow under Dr Carly Axford

I blend science with spirituality, energy healing with trauma-informed care, and modern psychology with ancient wisdom to create a safe and powerful space for healing and transformation.

If you feel called to work together, I would be honored to walk this path with you.
