Delivering immersive, therapeutically impactful sound healing experiences and personalized 1:1 therapies, Amarys offers The Amarys Method™ and is Quebec’s first Acutonics® practitioner. As a multidisciplinary healer, she brings a deep personal connection to vibrational medicine. As a world-level athlete in snowboarding and a global adventurer cycling across continents, she developed a deep understanding of the body. Her connection to sound began early, singing with a professional choir, studying music and performing in iconic venues.

She holds a university degree in Business Administration and the WSET Level 2 Award in Wine, combining strategic acumen with refined expertise. Her wellness credentials are equally impressive: over a decade of yoga and meditation mentoring and practice, advanced sound healing training across multiple modalities, including a six-month intensive in California and a year-long certified program in Chinese Medicine, vibrational energetic tuning and biofield realingment through the Acutonics® Institute of Integrative Medicine. She now blends her knowledge pioneering her Amarys Method to you at Sound Space+.

The woman-led vision infuses this project with both charm and a distinctive blend of wealth, well-being, restorative living and a unique blend of business intelligence, holistic mastery which positions her as a dynamic force in both corporate and wellness spheres.

In regards to her drive to explore the modalities she studied was inspired by her experience caregiving for her father during his twenty-two year struggle with Parkinson’s. Through this, she gained a deep understanding of what it means to feel, cope and live with constant medical needs, pain and the challenges that affect energy, lifestyle and daily routines. This experience became a catalyst, giving her both the gift and the mission to help those in need in the most modern and sophisticated ways, methods she believes have helped and can continue to help many others.

A former elite athlete turned long-distance adventure cyclist, entrepreneur and wine specialist, Amarys has embraced a holistic path and discovered her true calling in the art of healing. Now offering The Amarys Method™ and standing as an Acutonics® Practitioner, Integrative Health Practitioner and Lifestyle Coach, she bridges the physical discipline of sports performance with the energetic precision of vibrational medicine.

Grounded in Taoist philosophy, Traditional Chinese Medicine and holistic healing energy practices, her approach offers a compelling new alternative within Quebec’s frequency-based wellness landscape. With a range of practices under her belt and decades of personal experience in high-intensity sports, she is a skilled mentor and storyteller.

She holds space for groups with warmth and presence, inviting those who need a nudge, inspiration or guidance to reach a deeper level of openness within themselves. She thoughtfully integrates practices she has meticulously curated, sharing them with the public with dedication, love and light.

Her genuine honesty and care for the community make her experiences and strategies not only relaxing and healing but also empowering. They encourage clients to take the lead in bringing self-care practices into their own lives, a primary goal of hers. By guiding others to become their own healers, she inspires those around them to believe in themselves and to integrate a wellness-focused lifestyle into their daily routines.

By merging the agency’s expertise, resources, and drive with her vision and understanding of today’s needs, Sound Space+ and its services offer a true wealth of wellness programs, immersive experiences and innovative product launches.

Leshift™ and Amarys’ unique approach, blending her design expertise and professionalism, propel this initiative and the agency’s projects forward in true collaboration.

J.Harley Perkins

Leshift Wellness™ Founder

Co-founder of Sound Space+™

Brand architect, Innovator & Author

A professional sound designer, composer and pioneer of innovative immersive experiences and corporate branding, J. transforms how the world approaches health, healing and the intricate relationship between ancient practices and modern sciences.

He explores these connections through science-based sound and sensory design. His work blends neuroscience, psychoacoustics, vibroacoustics, medicinal anthropology and shamanistic principles to create functional soundscapes that support sleep, healing, focus and emotional wellbeing.

With a background as a recording artist, writer, poet, talent agent, brand designer and marketing strategist, his creative journey bridges art, science and technology to craft humane tools for a world facing anxiety, stress, and constant disconnection. He envisions a future where empathy becomes daily, care meets recognition and sound finds its place within modern medicine.

With over two decades of experience in healing arts and event curation, J. Harley Perkins is redefining the future of lifestyle branding through a wellness centered, experiential lens.

As a multi-sensory artist, multidisciplinary researcher, author, adventurer, mentor and branding agency president, he blends creative strategy with wellness insight, bridging high-impact marketing with intentional, soul-aligned experiences. J. draws on a richly layered background, from producing immersive events and building nationwide campaigns to designing wellness retreats and curating bespoke, visionary brand activations and awareness programs.

A humble approach to the emerging sound wellness scene, this prototype studio project embodies a vision devoted to crafting a spa-like, shrine-inspired sound environment. The initiative marks the beginning of a dedicated journey, laying the groundwork for a space where sound becomes both sanctuary and therapy. This first phase of development focuses on establishing the conceptual and technical foundations that will guide the evolution of the project into its full realization.

His work is grounded in the belief that lifestyle branding is no longer just aesthetic, it’s experiential, conscious and deeply human. Apart from the corporate lifestyle, having studied with Shamans, collaborated with Mystics and guided audiences through storytelling and ritual, he brings a rare fusion of insight and intuition to the forefront of brand innovation.

Whether developing wellness events, consulting on sensory-rich hospitality experiences or crafting brand strategies rooted in authenticity and healing, J. brings his full spectrum of expertise to help others create with intention and purpose. Before stepping fully into this path, J. led major outreach initiatives, built marketing teams and partnered with Fortune 500 companies and nonprofit organizations to drive meaningful change. Now, he channels that strategic precision into building regenerative, emotionally resonant brands that align with today’s evolving needs in entertainment, health practices and tourism.

At the intersection of innovation and intuition, J. Harley Perkins is working on the "blueprint" for a unique and next era of lifestyle branding, where wellness, storytelling and experience converge in a scientifically grounded way. Currently on a mission to deliver immersive experiences that go beyond entertainment and provide therapeutic impact, he uses his deep intuition, which he expresses is clearly not mysticism but embodied data, what he calls the original AI. In an era defined by hyper-specialization and the compartmentalization of knowledge, integrating diverse fields of study to drive innovation and shape the increasing interconnectedness of various domains is crucial.

His curiosity extends far beyond cognitive sciences; he has also made significant forays into philosophy, healing arts and the exploration of complex questions related to human nature, inspiring the investigation of human potential, lifestyle and modern health.

Through his relentless pursuit of artistic expression, his unwavering commitment to innovation and his refusal to be confined by societal expectations, he seamlessly integrates diverse fields of study to drive innovation, challenge the status quo and redefine the limits of human achievement in an avant-garde manner, collaborating with today’s innovators and practitioners.
