Iana Roy
Energy Regeneration specialist
Mineral Balancing practitioner
Advanced HTMA interpretation mentor
My first name is pronounced "i-a-na" (starting with the vowel "I", not the consonant "L" :)
I provide guidance with depth and authenticity, taking into account all aspects of being (physical, emotional, intellectual and spiritual), because that's what I've been exploring on my own journey for over 20 years.

My journey
It was through my own studies, research and experimentation that I put myself back on my feet after 20 years of profound exhaustion.
I was an Internet journalist at Radio-Canada (CBC) in Montreal (Quebec, Canada), and a master's student at the Université du Québec à Montréal when I suffered a major burnout in 2001, at the age of 22.
Neither conventional medicine, Western herbalism, acupuncture nor dietary changes were able to help me for good.
My exhaustion worsened over the years, until I spent 10-15 years in bed or with very low functionality. At my lowest point, unable to live independently, I was bedridden for 22 hours/day for nearly 2 years in an assisted living residence for seniors, the only place that could accommodate me. At one point, I came very close to needing a wheelchair to get around.
Discovering Mineral Balancing in 2016, and studying it since 2018, metamorphosed my health. I first trained with Dr Rick Malter and Kendra Perry. My improvement accelerated in 2021 when I learned John Bumpus' approach.
I've come a long way, and my recovery continues, but I've now regained my autonomy. I've been living on my own in rustic conditions since 2021 and now exercise many days a week. I even took up indoor bouldering in 2023 🙂

Before finding a way to regenerate my body, I spent my burnout years on a deep emotional and spiritual journey that led me to explore various traditions and approaches, with many teachers.
I was initiated by ALisa Starkweather (Priestess Path Apprenticeship, 2004-2006) and since 2001 have gratefully received the profound teachings, guidance and spiritual friendship of Sylvie Tremblay (Yoga Sangha, Montréal).
Conscious embodiment is at the heart of my life. My work as a mentor and Mineral Balancing practitioner is an extension of my trust and experience in the body's ability to regenerate through nutrients and the Vital Life Force.
I nurture and share through resonance the living experience that Matter and Essence are ONE.
