Unlock Your Personal Healing Power
A 40-day, live, online group experience to help you reclaim your health and vitality so you can look and feel your best, and live a fully expressed, soul-led life.
Without the overwhelm or pressure to 'do it all’ and over-complicate things — cause really, who needs that?
If you’re looking to create a vibrant life, you probably already know that good food, better sleep, exercise, and reducing stress are key to improving your health.
So I’ll save you the speech.
I’m not here to try to convince you of something that’s already been drilled into your beautiful open mind time and time again. After all, you have no shortage of health and wellness resources at your fingertips; books and websites filled with ideas you want to try — someday. You hope they’ll help you reach your goal, but the real challenge: consistency, knowing what’s right for YOU, and getting past the overwhelm.
What you might not know
Even if you’ve tried it all before…
Illness is an invitation to personal transformation
Our beautiful, Divinely intelligent bodies are always talking to us. Symptoms of “dis-ease” from depression to anxiety to indigestion – are an invitation to listen. When we find the courage to look closely, the meaning and joy we crave, and true well-being becomes available.
Your health is big picture
What you eat, how you exercise, the supplements and medications you take are only partial views of your overall health. Consider them seasonings. Modern health care has neglected to encourage us to nurture the interconnectedness of our bodies, mind, and spirit.
You’re more powerful than you know
You have more power and control over your health and well-being than you realize. Too often, we delegate all control and decisions to ‘experts’, but when it comes to what’s best for you, who else knows you better than you? Finding practitioners that support you is important, but you’re the ultimate authority when it comes to you.
The medicine is inside you
We often look outside for answers, but the wisdom for your healing lies within. When we learn to use our inner knowing, we can choose differently. What nourishes you is YOUR medicine. When you reconnect with your innate body wisdom, you’ll discover the right choices, people, and resources needed for your healing.
Prioritizing your health may be an obvious choice, but actually doing it is much harder.
“I’ve tried everything to feel good, but nothing helps."
"Is there something wrong with me?”
Perhaps you’ve had moments of inspiration where you've decided you’ll do things differently.
You’ve started to eat clean, take better care of your body, meditate, and have even tried numerous supplements and healing plans.
Even though you had high hopes that things would be different, life quickly gets in the way, inspiration fades, and you burn out — leaving you right back where you started.
But this time, you feel like an even bigger failure and begin to wonder, “What if I’m going to be like this forever?”
Your body is screaming at you — anxiety, skin conditions, hormonal imbalances, poor digestion, and restless sleep.
You’re smart, and you’ve probably found some band-aid solutions, but you know your body won’t let you sweep this under the rug forever.
You know something’s gotta change because things seem to be getting worse, not better.
Here's why most women find it so difficult to respond to their own needs:
Selflessness, putting everyone else's needs and wants before our own, has been the primary behaviour modelled for most women.
Taking proper care of ourselves, saying no, and asserting our boundaries while listening to our innate feminine wisdom isn’t something we learned when we were young. In fact, it’s been discouraged — and we’ve carried this patriarchal self-sacrificing way of being into our adult lives becoming all we know.
Here’s why that wreaks havoc on your health:
The body keeps score. Sooner or later, it will remind you that this pattern of self-neglect isn't working.
Most of us walk around unconsciously all the time and have been conditioned to tune-out our inherent body wisdom in exchange for someone else's opinion. We’ve been conditioned to give our power away in an effort to try to fix things. So we reach for quick fixes — a fad diet, pharmaceutical, or health trend. These shiny solutions get our hopes up but often leave us right back where we started, feeling lost and hopeless.
5 Reasons Women Don’t Follow Through on Their Wellness Goals
1. GIVING HER BUSY STORY ALL THE GLORY
Women lead lives packed with the priorities of others — work, family, and social circles. It’s acceptable to be a people-pleaser. We link it to achievement, success, and our purpose. It’s the go-to excuse to avoid diverting our time from others and focusing on ourselves. We’ve come to believe that others’ needs are more important than our own.
2. CHASING THE QUICK-FIX TRANSFORMATION
A downfall of living in a society built on convenience is the expectation of instant gratification. No matter our intelligence level or past experiences, we can easily be swept away by the mythical promise that our solution is just around the corner. Marketing leans into this heavily, especially in the trillion-dollar health and wellness industry. If we don't wake up, we’ll keep chasing the quick-fix.
3. PUTTING HERSELF FIRST MAKES HER SELFISH
Selfishness is the exclusive concern for oneself — which is important, and something you’re worthy of. If you extend the definition (and your selfish act) to disregard others’ well-being, you’re heading into murky water. What we don’t hear enough is that you can boundary this in a healthy, productive, and nourishing way for yourself and others.
4. DISCONNECTED FROM HER INTUITION
Many women don’t trust their intuition to support their health. Experiences with medical professionals rarely tap into the power of the feminine. When women bring spiritual guidance or intuition into the dynamic, they find themselves silenced or ridiculed.
5. CHOOSING THE RIGHT PATH IS TOO OVERWHELMING
There are many voices and choices when it comes to your health. When we’re just getting started, it feels like learning a new language. So we seek out guidance and as soon as we open the door to step onto our path, it’s as noisy as the last stretch of a marathon. You’re not sure what’s more frightening, navigating through the noise or closing the door.
Healing isn’t a matter of conquering an illness. Healing is a journey of personal transformation.
Our inner dialogue, thoughts, and perceptions are as integral to our health as our lifestyle habits — in fact, they inform them. Your beliefs have more to do with the quality of your health and well-being than any organic vegetable, yoga class, or supplement.
When you get quiet and listen to your body, you can hear the powerful healing force within you.
- The time has come for you to finally heed the wisdom of your inner knowing to reclaim your well-being.
- To remember the sacred feminine wisdom inside and give yourself permission to be your wild, authentic self.
- To uncover the root of what’s causing your dis-ease and embark on the empowering journey back to yourself.
- To do exactly what you need to do to nourish and heal your body and summon the courage and inspiration to implement healing changes into your everyday life.
That’s where I come in…
A 40-day intensive group program designed to transform your life.
Hi there,
I’m Maryska and I help women go from being burnt out, struggling with illness, putting their needs last to being deeply connected and caring for themselves, tending to their greater healing and purpose.
I know this journey intimately because I’ve lived it and continue to live it every day.
I’ve taken everything I’ve learned in medical school, 13 years of postsecondary education, private practice, experience as a pastor, and my own self-healing journey and poured it into The Inner Sage.
My signature healing methodology, The Art of Living, serves as the backbone of this transformational program. Not only do I walk you through this life-changing method I’ve used myself and with hundreds of patients, but I help you apply it directly to your life and get the results you desire. You’ll finally experience the change you crave. And because the course is delivered LIVE, I’m here to help you along the journey. If you get stuck, I’ll coach you with my tools and experience to help you solve problems and keep going. In The Inner Sage, you’ll work LIVE with me and other women in our group coaching calls to help you create the shift you want.
The Inner Sage isn't a one-and-done program.
It’s a time-tested resource where you’ll discover the transformational tools to serve you for life.
By the end of 40 days, you’ll create a personalized wellness plan that will lead you to the vibrant and healthy life you desire.
But more important than that, we’ll have uncovered the root cause of what’s really been keeping you stuck. You’ll feel empowered to move beyond these limiting beliefs and behaviours to truly take your power back and transform your health and your life!
The end result: a lasting transformation accomplished by making small tweaks that didn’t overwhelm your life.
This is the ONLY program of it’s kind that…
Is led by a medically trained naturopathic doctor that’s spiritually focused
Provides guidance to each individuals truth
Teaches the principles of my proven methodology, The Art of Living.
Empowers the patient to be the leader in their own health care
Here’s how it works…
As your guide, you’ll get every ritual, tool, practice, and nourishing thought I’ve used in my life to create healing and meaning.
These are the same healing practices that got me through profound struggles and kept me deepening into more joy and purpose every day. They’re the same practices I share with my patients and clients.
I keep it super simple and make it very clear.
Here are the details:
- The program is 40 days long with a live group coaching call each week for 6 weeks.
- We’ll kick off our journey together with a LIVE 90-minute Zoom call where we’ll dive straight into The Art of Living principles and how you can begin applying them to your life from day 1!
- Then we’ll continue with a 1-hour LIVE group call each week as we move through The Art of Living Blueprint.
- You’ll get soul-led ‘homework’ each week, as well as special resources, to help you implement the teachings and recommendations and apply these principles to your unique situation.
- We move at a purposeful pace so you can focus on areas where you need the most support and desire the greatest change. If you often find yourself in overwhelm, you’re going to love my approach.
- I’ve created resources such as meditations, meal plans, and recommended lifestyle modifications that you can use to enrich your journey along the way.
- This experience is designed so that you can completely customize it for you while getting the support YOU need to truly create lasting change.
- You’ll have access to me in a private Facebook group to answer any pressing questions or for clarification as needed between our group coaching calls for added support.
Here’s What We’ll Cover:
WEEK 1
Tuning In
Healing begins when we understand that illness is an invitation to a bigger journey of personal transformation. In this first week you’ll learn to listen to your body’s voice and how it’s speaking to you through symptoms. You’ll discover a whole new way of viewing your health and a new mode of healing. You’ll see your body as part of a revolutionary holistic healing paradigm.
WEEK 2
Coming Back to You
This week you’ll learn how you’ve become disconnected from your power and intuition. We’ll be diving deep into the concepts of the Sacred Feminine, reconnecting with ourselves and discovering the conditioning that has kept women in a cycle of people pleasing, self-lessness and disconnection from our inner wisdom and power. You’ll discover the power of choosing authenticity over attachment and get tools to help you come back to yourself.
WEEK 3
Identifying Obstacles
You’ll discover the intimate connection between your beliefs and biology and uncover the patterns and conditioning that got you here in the first place. This week you’ll discover how your thoughts are an important part of your body’s wisdom and how intimately linked they are to your biology as well as become aware of other obstacles that have been standing in your way of claiming vibrant health.
WEEK 4
Reclaim Your Power
This week we’ll be talking all about power and how you are more powerful than you ever thought possible! You’ll learn the 3 Keys of Self Empowerment and how to apply them to your life in order to reclaim ownership of your health and your life, and start to implement the changes you desire in an empowered way. You’ll also discover your inner power centres (it's okay if you don't yet know what this is, just know that it's impactful) and how to identify and address where you are losing power in your life and how to reclaim it.
WEEK 5
The Medicine is Inside You
This week you’ll take everything you’ve learned and begin forming your plan. Having reconnected with your intuition and identified the obstacles, you’ll unlock a collection of powerful tools and resources. You’ll have everything you need to create your wellness plan using your own inner wisdom as the guide. This is where other programs miss the mark. You’re the owner of your health and know yourself best. When you create your plan, you’ll be more likely to stick to it and make it work in your life. I’ll be there right beside you to help when you need it.
Week 6
Reflection and Celebration
This week is the culmination of your journey and will be all about reflecting on what you’ve learnt throughout the course solidifying the concepts and tools that you’ve learnt along the way to ensure your continued success. The purpose of this course is to help you reclaim your sovereignty and reconnect with yourself so that you feel empowered to create lasting change in your life. This final week we will be celebrating how far you’ve come and ensure you have what you need to continue your progress.
Imagine what your life would be like if:
You had complete faith in your ability to heal your body and knew exactly what to do to create vibrant well-being.
You felt confident in your power to create any change you desired in your life.
You trusted that each experience in your life was working FOR you and not against you.
You felt unshakeable in your worth and purpose.
You felt truly connected to your intuition and were finally able to see the evidence of your inner knowing.
You felt at ease asserting your boundaries and owned your self-worth, ridding yourself of all the 'shoulds'.

“I’ll never forget that first appointment with Dr. Taylor, I had never felt empathy like that before. The appointment felt like I was in a safe place, and every appointment since that feeling has only strengthened. I started seeing her when I thought I was at a point where my health was recovering, but through our work together I realized that what I thought was health was only skimming the surface of true well-being.
Our work together has helped me to understand I had been surviving, rather than thriving. She’s helped me to understand and celebrate my own worth and beauty from within. Not only have my personal relationships evolved, but my physical health has improved beyond anything I could have imagined. Amongst other issues, I had been diagnosed with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) as a teenager and had always been told I’d never have a regular cycle.
Now I’m happy to say that I am regular, and in a bit more time I’m hoping to start trying for a family. Dr Taylor has many incredible tools to help people to help themselves, but the most valuable one is her incredible empathy.” Carolynn
“I had always wanted to work with a Naturopathic Doctor, and yet also had my reservations and fears. The moment I found Maryska, they immediately melted away ~ and I haven’t looked back since. But I have to say her ND expertise doesn’t even begin to describe her brilliance. She is so real, makes you feel so at ease, and is always completely present. Working with her not only was I cured naturally of various ailments I’ve been struggling with for YEARS, she saw me as a whole person and spiritual being. She knew what I needed and is so committed to helping me step into my most vibrant, healthiest, authentic self. And moreover, she wants me to shine, and sees what’s possible beyond even what I can see.” - Carol
“My relationship with Dr. Maryska began with naturopathic treatments to get my health in balance. It was my good fortune that while treating my physical concerns Maryska began to treat my whole “self”.
With her gentle guidance and intuitive questions, I began a soul-searching quest to bring balance to my spiritual, mental and my physical well-being. Maryska offered a non-judgemental and caring path to follow and I am forever grateful.” - Anna
The Inner Sage is perfect for you if you’re done:
Struggling with exhaustion and overwhelm in your every day.
Confused when trying to figure out what that heck to eat and harder still, what to feed your family.
Using caffeine to get you through the day and wine to chill out at night.
Finding it hard to say no and always the last priority on your 'to do' list.
Feeling confused and wondering where to even start with creating real change in your life.
Feeling stuck in a rut, losing hope and finding it difficult to believe you can actually do this.
Feeling like a hot mess with your hormones out of whack, digestion off, not sleeping and you find yourself snapping at those you love out of frustration.
With not getting the attention and care that a supportive program like this has to offer.
Struggling with a nagging chronic illness that just seems to get worse no matter what you try.
So if any of the above resonates,
and you’re ready to embark on a journey back to health then I can’t wait to welcome you to...
and reward your commitment to your well-being with the most complete and holistic program available.
“I've never felt so cared for by a medical professional before. Not only was Dr. Taylor extremely knowledgeable about natural healing practices, but she also acted as a spiritual guide.
Going to see her was like a tune-up of my soul. I always left my time with her feeling better about myself, more connected to my being and overall happiness.” - Alex
“I started seeing Dr. Taylor a few years ago and she has helped me a lot to maintaining a more holistic and balance life. I still maintain many of her tips today. What I liked about working with Maryska she truely focuses on the whole being we are. Mind, body and soul. Her methods are truly holistic helping us to utilize the resources naturally within our bodies, helping us to be more in tuned to when our body speaks and to listen to our soul. The solution to healing is not in a pill but it is within. Dr. Taylor helped me to get in tune with myself to be able to hear my own inner voice and live an optimized full version of me.” - Shakira
