Hi, I'm Maureen Hutchison

I created Virya Life based on a simple truth I couldn’t ignore: busy professionals deserve wellness support that fits their real lives, not the kind that demands perfection, promotes fads, or piles on pressure, but the kind that empowers, sustains, and uplifts.

For years, I’ve worked with people juggling demanding careers, leadership roles, and personal responsibilities, many of whom feel exhausted, disconnected, and overwhelmed. Too often, they’ve turned to wellness trends, restrictive diets, intense workouts, or productivity hacks that promise quick fixes but aren't backed by science. Instead of feeling better, they end up more drained and discouraged.

At Virya Life, I offer a different approach: practical, compassionate, science-informed wellness that meets you exactly where you are. Whether you're just starting out or starting over, my goal is to help you feel more confident in making informed choices that support your long-term health without clickbait, guilt, or rigid rules.

That’s what inspired me to create Virya Life: a space for real, whole-person support designed for busy professionals, especially those navigating the shifts and challenges of life after 40—and particularly after 50.

My approach blends evidence-based nutrition, mindful movement, functional exercise, and stress reduction techniques to help you build energy, resilience, and clarity on your terms.

Virya Life isn’t just a brand—it’s a philosophy.

It’s about tapping into your inner strength, honoring your body’s wisdom, and creating space for meaningful, sustainable change. It’s about choosing progress over perfection, intention over intensity, and wellness that fits into your life, not the other way around.

My wellness philosophy is grounded in two essentials: simplicity and sustainability. If it doesn’t work in your real life, it won’t work in the long run. That’s why I focus on personalized strategies that meet you where you are, not where someone else says you should be.

Outside of my work, you’ll find me on nature walks, rescuing dogs, growing food, and creating space for what truly matters. Wellness isn’t just my profession, it’s how I live.

If you're ready to stop just surviving and start feeling grounded, energized, and in control of your well-being, I’d love to support you.

Let’s create a wellness journey that actually works for YOU!
