About Women Whispers Academy
Women Whispers Academy is a learning and gathering space rooted in listening, reflection, and embodied awareness. It offers women a place to slow down, explore inner life, and engage meaning through story, creative practice, and shared presence.
The Academy is not a therapy practice or a program-based institution. It is a spacious container where inquiry unfolds gently, over time, and in relationship with others.
About Amira
Amira Ayad, PhD, RP is a best-selling author, psychotherapist, spiritual care practitioner, and CRPO supervisor whose work explores the relationship between the body, emotional life, spirituality, and the search for meaning.
Amira holds a Master’s degree in Pharmaceutics, a PhD in Natural Health, and a Master of Psychospiritual Studies from the University of Toronto. She previously served as a faculty member at the Faculty of Pharmacy in Egypt and at the Institute of Holistic Nutrition in Toronto. And currently works as a Spiritual Care Practitioner at Scarborough Health Network.
In 2016, Amira founded the Women Whispers Academy, where women learn to listen to their Body Whispers® before they turn into screams. Drawing on years of clinical practice, spiritual care, and integrative health work, Amira creates spaces - through books, journals, workshops, expressive arts, and retreats - where transformation is facilitated through storytelling, listening, reflection, and embodied awareness rather than fixing or forcing change.
Amira's practice combines the best of both worlds: science and spirituality. She weaves together science, psychology, spirituality, creative imagination, and lived experience, offering a compassionate and integrative approach to healing and personal transformation.
She is the author of several books, some of which have been translated into more than ten languages and read and taught by thousands around the globe. She is best known for Body Whispers: Unraveling the Emotional & Spiritual Roots of Illness, and her newest novel What Is Real?
Amira lives and works in Canada, offering talks, workshops, and retreats both online and in person.
