Meet your Host
Dr. Kirstie Griffiths is an award-winning chiropractor, yoga teacher, and best-selling author practicing in Guelph, Ontario. Her passion is in helping people overcome back pain using a mind-body approach that integrates chiropractic and yoga.
Kirstie founded Guelph Yoga and Wellness Festival in 2022 as a way to bring community together following a period of disconnection related to the pandemic. Kirstie wanted to create an event that would allow people the opportunity to connect with one another, nurture themselves, and give back to the community.
Kirstie believes that when we take good care of ourselves, it makes us more capable of taking good care of others. The event is designed for you to indulge in self-care with the option to participate in an initiative to give back to community through our charity raffle raising funds for Hospice Wellington.
