Katherine Devine grew up in the British Virgin Islands, spent her high school years in the United States, and completed her degree in Environmental Ecology at Trent University in Canada. Her passion for nature and conservation led her to travel extensively, working with environmental groups around the world before settling in Belize over 25 years ago. She has raised a family, run several businesses, and now calls a beautiful 10-acre farm in the Cayo District home, where she lives with her daughter, son-in-law, and grandchildren. There, she tends to an organic garden, raises chickens, and enjoys the company of her beloved pets. For over 15 years, the Devine and Assales family has cared for the land that is now home to Balance Point Wellness. Farming, gardening, and sustainability are at the heart of their way of life, and they take pride in preserving the natural beauty and rich biodiversity of their surroundings. Their greenhouse nursery, nature trails, and collection of medicinal plants reflect a deep commitment to eco-friendly living and holistic well-being. Katherine’s lifelong journey in health and wellness includes over 20 years of yoga teaching and extensive training in Ayurveda, massage therapy, and integrative nutrition. She holds certifications from the Temple of Kriya Yoga, the Himalayan Institute, the Spa Tech Institute, and the Institute for Integrative Nutrition. Through Balance Point Wellness, she brings together the healing power of yoga, Maya traditions, and nature to offer a truly restorative experience.
