YOUR INVITATION TO RESET
If you've been running on empty, craving something more, or simply needing a pause, consider this your invitation to reset.
Join Amber Stratton, co-owner of Pure Yoga and Framework, and Amanda Bastedo, medical director and co-owner of SkinLogic, at Bloom Holistic for a weekend devoted entirely to women's wellness. Beyond movement and education, you'll have the opportunity to complete your own hormone panel and have it reviewed one-on-one, so the weekend is shaped around your body. This weekend is designed to leave you feeling refreshed, rested and give you tools that are personal and actionable.
Slow down and let your nervous system soften. Move and breathe through yoga and Pilates with Amber, unwind in the sauna, and treat yourself to a facial or massage.
This isn't just a weekend away. It's a chance to understand your body, reconnect with yourself, and leave with real tools you can weave into your everyday life.

Meet your hosts
Amanda Bastedo is a Nurse Practitioner with a passion for women’s health and wellness, with a particular focus on perimenopause, menopause, and hormonal health. With a Master of Nursing and Nurse Practitioner education, alongside 17 years of critical care nursing experience, Amanda brings a strong foundation of clinical expertise, advanced assessment skills, and evidence-informed practice to her approach to patient care.
Her practice is rooted in the belief that women deserve comprehensive, individualized care that evolves with them through every stage of life. Amanda is dedicated to helping women better understand their hormones, navigate the physical and emotional changes of midlife, and make informed decisions about their health and well-being.
Through a personalized approach to health assessments, hormone health education, symptom management, and preventative wellness strategies, Amanda aims to bridge the gap between conventional healthcare and the evolving needs of women. She values the importance of looking beyond individual symptoms to consider the broader picture of health, including energy, sleep, mood, metabolic health, and long-term disease prevention.
Combining extensive nursing experience with a passion for education and proactive wellness, Amanda strives to create a supportive, collaborative environment where women feel heard, empowered, and confident in their healthcare decisions.
Amber Stratton is a wellness entrepreneur, teacher, and community builder who has spent two decades helping people feel more at home in their bodies and their lives. After completing her teacher training in 2006, she co-founded Pure Yoga Ottawa in 2012, which has since grown into a connected wellness ecosystem that includes Pure Kitchen, Pure Fit, Framework Ottawa, Pure Life TV, The Ritual, and City of Om, Ottawa's movement and wellness festival.
Amber still teaches across yoga, Lagree, and Ritual practices. Endlessly wellness-curious, she has spent years immersing herself in health and wellness, learning how to balance a full, busy life with the practices that help her slow down, regulate her nervous system, and truly care for herself. Her work is rooted in community, accessibility, and authenticity. She believes wellness should feel welcoming, not exclusive, and she brings people together through classes, retreats, and community gatherings across the city.
She lives by a simple motto: "The goal is to love yourself, what you do and how you do it."
