THE LEGACY OF PATHWAYS NORTH
Thirty Years of Healing—And a Bold New Future
In 1988, over breakfast at the New French Café, Mike and Penny Winton dreamed of a space where healing was accessible to all. They had experienced the profound impact of integrative healing firsthand and knew that healthcare needed more holistic options. That vision became Pathways, a place where people could find hope, community, and holistic approaches to healing—free of charge.
For over three decades, Pathways opened its doors to thousands, offering nearly a quarter of a million healing experiences. International thought leaders stood alongside local practitioners, supporting people toward wellbeing. What once seemed unconventional—mindfulness and holistic healing modalities—is now recognized as essential.
And yet, the need for healing has never been greater.
A New Era of Mental Wellness
The world has changed, and so have the challenges we face. Stress, anxiety, and emotional exhaustion have become everyday struggles, leaving many feeling disconnected and searching for something deeper. Pathways is evolving to meet this moment.
Our renewed focus is on resilience, mental health, and holistic wellbeing—empowering individuals with evidence-based tools to not only heal but thrive. Through integrative approaches like CBT, positive psychology, lifestyle medicine, and mindfulness, we help people break free from limiting patterns and build the inner strength to navigate life’s challenges.
We believe healing isn’t just about relief—it’s about transformation. It’s about reclaiming joy, purpose, and connection. And just as Pathways was founded on the belief that true healing must be accessible to all, we continue to offer a mix of free and affordable tools and programs delivered fully online to ensure everyone has the opportunity to grow.

The Next Chapter Starts With You
For over thirty years, Pathways has been a beacon of healing. Today, we invite you to be part of our next chapter—one where resilience, wellbeing, and a new, more positive approach to mental health are within reach for all.
Because healing isn’t just about the past. It’s about the future we create—together.
