About Chrystof

Chrystof Muszka is a Queer Yoga & Meditation Educator, Energy Healer and Earth Mystic in Toronto, Canada with over 15 years of teaching experience and 25 years of practice. He seeks to inspire his students and clients to live authentic, holistic, and mindful lives. Working with heart opening modalities such as yoga, meditation, breath awareness, energy healing and Ceremonial Cacao as pathways of transformation and healing. Bringing a unique perspective, Chrys blends the ancient wisdom with a modern and respectful approach.

He gives so much thanks to the yoga and meditation practice in helping him become a confident queer human in this world, and develop the courage continue to be authentically himself.

Ever since Chrys was little he had an interest in the natural, spiritual, and metaphysical world. He knew that things were and are much deeper, and more meaningful than they seem. That humans, animals, and plants are far more connected than what the mind and intellect can conceive.

Chrys’ connection to the natural world began in the forests, lakes, and breezes of Northern Ontario, Canada, where nature became his first meditation teacher. Through quiet reflection, breath, and deep listening, he developed a lifelong relationship with mindfulness, spirituality, and the Earth.

His connection to the land inspired a deep curiosity about Indigenous history, ancestral healing, and humanity’s relationship with nature and spirit. Through reclaiming his own ancestry and spiritual practices, Chrys has worked to heal intergenerational trauma, reconnect with lost cultural identity, and honour the resilience, wisdom, and courage of those who came before him. This journey continues to shape his work as both a healer and guide.

Chrys identifies as a queer, bisexual, white cis man (he/him) and is committed to anti-racism, inclusivity, social justice, and collective healing. He believes true spiritual practice must include awareness, compassion, and action in support of equality, environmental stewardship, and community care. For Chrys, personal healing is inseparable from healing the collective.

Movement has always been central to his life. From a young age he explored dance, sports, martial arts, and embodied movement, learning early on how deeply the body communicates and heals. At 14, he discovered yoga and immediately connected to its powerful integration of movement, breath, mindfulness, and spiritual purpose. Yoga became a foundation for self-awareness, healing, and understanding the interconnectedness of all beings.

After graduating from York University with an Honours degree in Environmental Studies and a minor in Theatre Studies, Chrys felt called to begin teaching yoga and meditation. In 2009, he traveled to Lake Atitlán, Guatemala for his first yoga teacher training, beginning years of study in yoga, somatic healing, meditation, Reiki, Body-Mind Centering, and embodied movement practices. His trainings and studies have since taken him to India, Bali, Montreal, Toronto, New York City, and beyond, where he explored diverse spiritual and movement traditions.

Chrys has also spent over 15 years working in outdoor education, guiding children and youth through experiential learning, wilderness skills, nature connection, and environmental awareness. His years teaching in forests and outdoor spaces deeply shaped his grounded, Earth-centered approach to healing and spirituality.

Since being introduced to Reiki energy healing at age 11, Chrys has continued exploring subtle energy work, intuition, and spiritual healing practices. He works with Reiki, meditation, somatic awareness, and plant medicine traditions to support balance, regulation, and reconnection within the body, mind, and spirit. Deeply influenced by herbalism and Earth-based healing traditions, he believes plants are powerful allies that support emotional, physical, and spiritual well-being when approached with respect and right relationship.

For over a decade, Chrys has also cultivated a meaningful relationship with cacao and its spiritual and cultural roots, particularly within Maya traditions. His work with cacao is grounded in reverence, heart connection, and the understanding that plant medicines can help deepen awareness, healing, compassion, and connection to spirit.

Chrys considers himself an Earth Mystic, devoted to exploring the mystery, beauty, and magick of being human and living in relationship with the Earth. His practice is informed by meditation, ancestral wisdom, Celtic and Romani spiritual traditions, and a deep respect for Indigenous teachings and lineages. He believes there are many paths to healing and awakening, all rooted in presence, compassion, and connection.

Living in Toronto, on the traditional territories of many Indigenous nations, Chrys walks with gratitude and respect for the original stewards of the land. Through his teaching and healing work, he hopes to inspire others to cultivate a more grounded, holistic, heart-centered, and interconnected way of living.
