Resting & Releasing the Past

Trauma-safe and nervous system-informed practices

 A 3 session online event.

Topics:

• Opening to Grace
• You are not alone.
• Learning to trust.

Meetings with Candace are an invitation to rest and join with others in a safe and compassionate space.

Candace will guide the group in gentle practices and dialogue that invite resting into the present moment where we will practice listening gently to what is arising here both inside and outside.

Bringing attention to what’s happening outside is a way to resource and attune to what’s happening inside. With practice it starts to become clear that everything is appearing in the same open field of awareness.

The undigested impact of trauma (past) arises in present moment awareness in the same way as the sound of birdsong; a gentle breeze; sunlight coming in through the window; the sound of the dishwasher; cool air; flickering candle light; tension; the crunch of gravel; physical pain; tears; the far off sound of traffic; busy mind; body softening; body contracting.

Building capacity to meet our undigested trauma (past) is a practice in restoring safety; understanding; self compassion; gentleness; patience; listening; courage and embodiment.

A path of love, illumination and restoration for all that has been denied, suppressed and held in the body.

“Your sanctuary is a balm for my whole being.”
~ Julie P

In this course we will engage in teachings, simple present moment practices; meditation, neurosensory practices, grounding, orientation and creative practices followed by questions and dialogue.

This is a slow and gentle process.
