About Sam
Sam Shepherd is the founder of Wildbeast Mindfulness Movement and is based in Erin, Ontario, where she lives closely connected to nature and the rhythms of the outdoors. A wilderness enthusiast and lifelong explorer of human experience, Sam’s work is rooted in the belief that healing and transformation unfold through embodied presence, deep listening, and authentic connection — both within ourselves and with the natural world around us.
As a therapeutic Breathwork and yoga facilitator, listener, intuitive guide, and energy worker, Sam creates grounded and supportive spaces that encourage nervous system regulation, emotional healing, self-awareness, and reconnection to one’s inner wisdom. Her approach weaves together somatic awareness, movement, breath-centered practices, energetic sensitivity, and nature-based experiences to support holistic wellbeing and meaningful personal growth.
Known for her compassionate presence and intuitive facilitation style, Sam draws deeply from lived experience and her own ongoing journey of self-discovery. She describes herself as “an expert of personal experience,” bringing authenticity, curiosity, and grounded humanity into the spaces she holds.
Through global retreats, workshops, Breathwork sessions, yoga classes, and immersive experiences, Sam invites participants to slow down, reconnect with themselves, and rediscover the healing intelligence already present within the body, the breath, and the natural world.

"My breathwork mentor has been the kind of mentor and teacher I’ve always wanted but didn’t think existed. The kind I always imagined a real mentor was: someone that you really work alongside like an apprenticeship. Someone that knows you well and where your challenge areas are from the close contact and oversight that they have of you. Someone that cares about you and your growth. Someone that supports you when you need to be nudged or met where you’re at. Someone that really shows you the ropes in a way that you can’t get from a text book or lecture. You know, how mentorship’s and apprenticeships must have looked like in the old days and in tribes 🙂."

"In my search for eternal truth, she was the first to hold me with quiet power. In every session, her hands feel woven from threads of another dimension — light like breath, steady like earth. There is no fear in journeying through the breath with Ashley, because her presence invokes a deep-rooted safety, the kind that cannot be taught — only embodied."

"My relationship to myself has shifted through my work with Ashley and that in turn has shifted other relationships in my life. I see things through a different lens. I'm able to not be so reactionary and if I am, I can sit and observe myself later. I've been able to access more forgiveness for myself and for others in that process. It's helped me move stagnant and unserving energy in my body that I might not have found the tools to deal with otherwise. The work gave me the tools to access these points, realizations, emotions, physical forms that I have built up externally and emotional walls that I have built internally that were keeping me from my highest potential. She taught me to teach myself through movement, breath, silence, reflection, slowing down......It's been life changing."
