“I am interested in the question of the transmission of knowledge in resonance and harmony with feeling, learning and aligning heart-body-head. Since 2000, my primary tool as an actor has been the body—we work with the goal of identifying, observing, feeling and creating motion with well-being or ailments. Working on listening, balance, imbalance and harmonizing the whole of the work is in itself a course to be experienced in consciousness once in a lifetime. The body is an incredible teacher. When we listen to it. Why would this toolkit be for actors only? This answer was absurd, so I send alternate tools for virtual or face-to-face exchanges to people in all sectors of activity. I observe that this helps to reduce anxiety and performance stress, naturally generates greater alignment between the individual and his value system, increases inner peace, better equips you to face hardships, support in order to become a creator of an ideal personal lifestyle increases people’s self-confidence and other testimonies will relate to more intimate aspects.”
- Stephanie Lavoie (December 2022)
Initiative created at the beginning of the creation of the doctoral research project of the actress-creator and entrepreneur, Stéphanie Lavoie. The researcher wishes to make a contribution by working to propose solutions to these social ills. In May 2021, she set up a program (under construction) aimed at observing, feeling, listening, discerning, welcoming, transforming and sharing. The main pivots are: anxiety, performance stress, connection to the body, connection to the head, rebalancing heart-body-head, self-confidence, communication, expressions, hardships, blockages, personal challenges to overcome, awakening and equipment (or tools ). The relationship to the head, the relationship to the body, the relationship to oneself as well as the relationship to the other became working tools, a profession, then tools of transmission for the researcher. For a long time, she sought her extension as an actress-creator. Covid-19 has played this role: initiating reflection, proposing societal solutions based on tools that it has itself experienced since 2000, then helping to advance research. Currently, important associations are taking shape in order to bring this innovation intended for the collective accessible to the greatest number of individuals. Finding or rediscovering a heart-body-head alliance in a society subject to anxiety and performance stress is one of the team’s concerns. Using a virtual device, the researcher shares short videos with participants. They can watch them when their schedule allows, when they’re in the right frame of mind, and from wherever they choose. Alternating virtual or in-person meetings, the work between the participants and Stephanie continues.
Please note, the website is under construction. This is a public showcase aimed at sharing the motions of the program and the testimonies of the participants in compliance with the rules of confidentiality. Traces of tests and additions are added regularly.
Since May 2021, research, field observations, experimentation and development have been offered to teenage and adult participants from French Canada, English Canada, Europe and Africa. Since October 2021, an ethics committee has been involved in supervising the doctoral project. Title of doctoral project: Development, implementation and evaluation of an intervention program for adults with anxiety disorders—research that has generated interest and association with the research laboratory on adjustment difficulties and psychosocial intervention (LAREDAIP) led by Professor Dr. Saïd Bergheul (UQAT).

You will have laughed, learned, filled your toolbox, made a strong bond with me who has the urge to move forward. I will be there to support you in getting there too.

I am a modest woman. I live in northern Quebec. Nature is my anchor. In my heart, culture, projects and development represent "meeting" and making a difference, together. I am in recognition and gratitude for all these meetings, cultural and entrepreneurial projects that work to give, but which have also brought me a lot. I initiated some. I received a lot. Thank you.
Currently, I'm working as an Executive Assistant/Production with the Technosub Group, picking up some artistic contracts and building my virtual program.
