Paula Borsellino

Paula J. Borsellino’s early life was filled with dance and the performing arts. An ankle injury, and subsequent surgery led to her closing her studio at the young age of 25. Left with an abundance of passion for movement, holistic health and people, Paula began an endeavor towards the Healing Arts. 

With an ancestry of Italian, Sicilian, French and Metis, Paula need not search far for “wives tales” and natural remedies. Living within the home was her Italian grandmother. Besides lifting the “malocchio” (evil eye) from afflicted souls, she passed on a love for Marche region cuisine, along with remedies for air cleansing, lash thickening, hair softening and even insect repellents. Utilizing the Earth’s gifts seemed a logical lifestyle choice.

The journey to Traditional Witchcraft developed naturally. Paula was officially dedicated to Wicca at the age of 23. During this time, a discovery of herbs and their benefits enticed her to delve further with tutelage and workshops from some of Ontario’s Master Herbalists. The vast knowledge amongst these women left a positive impression regarding the healing power of herbs, thus solidifying Paula’s path to further study the Craft and wortcunning (working with useful herbs) whilst developing healing skin care as a solitary practitioner. By 27, she embarked on a full course of hands-on training of clinical aromatherapy with lymphatic massage, acupuncture, cranial therapy and reiki at the Centre of International Holistic Studies. 

Practicing professionally since 1999, Paula has developed techniques within the healing arts which she continues to cultivate and teach. Shaping the perspectives and hands of healers is paramount in this mature element of her career.
