SUMMARY:Reconnecting: Sensing Our Way Home
DESCRIPTION:Reconnecting: Sensing Our Way Home\nA gentle and intuitive path of healing trauma and awakening to our true nature of Presence.\nReconnecting: Sensing Our Way Home is an 8 week online course created by Trauma Therapist\, Organic Intelligence Certified Coach and experienced Nervous System Practitioner Candace Kirby. \n\n“The whole universe is contained within a single human being – you.” ~ Rumi \n\nChildhood trauma is a loss of safety\, trust and healthy reliance on others; and a loss of connection to the present moment and our true nature of goodness. \nWhen the physiology of a child is overwhelmed by an event or events their inability to digest the overwhelm will cause their system to split off and give way to a false persona. This is necessary to the child’s survival. This split is an impulse away from authenticity and towards survival. \nThe traumatized system has often never experienced the body or the present moment as safe. \nThis course is a slow\, gentle and intuitive path of connecting with and learning to trust our direct experience. No manipulation. No tricks. No strategies. No attempt to master the body; only deep reverence and respect for the intelligence of a system that has survived. \nBecause many of us start on this path with a lot of undigested trauma and nervous system dysregulation we go slow and lay a strong foundation to support our physiology in ways it has never been supported before. To heal trauma we must restore what was lost; safety\, trust and healthy reliance on ourself and others without shaking the foundation of the survival system too quickly. \nThis work of restoration is intuitive and nuanced work that requires a safe space\, safe people and a slow and skilful approach. \nI hope you’ll join us.\nThe course material including practices are restorative; slow\, simple and repetitive which the physiology needs to settle and begin to come into regulation. The safe container of the group will offer consistent support and compassionate attunement for your nervous system. \n\n“This gentle work with Candace has been such an enormous gift. No pushing\, no forcing. Allowing and welcoming everything as a real practice not as spiritual bypass. Not just meaningless words that cannot be sustained\, but true substance\, which allows and heals everything. I am here\, I have ground to stand on\, I am gaining agency. I feel and know and love myself. Thank you so much.” ~ Participant \n\nThis course will help you:\n\nUnderstand the impact of past and present trauma on the physiology and why we suffer.\nTend to your nervous system states with more understanding and confidence.\nPause\, slow down\, rest and find ease in the present moment with the support of the group and consistent guided practices\nNotice that the present moment environment is consistently offering support.\nAlign with what is helpful and supportive and let go of what isn’t\nBuild capacity to be here by first building a foundation of safety\, stability and unconditional acceptance.\nFeel safe in the company of others. Perhaps for the first time.\nMake peace with your mind by understanding how nervous system states fuel our thoughts.\nLearn how to soften and release what’s been held in the body.\nCome to know yourself through your direct experience.\n\nIn this course we will engage in teachings\, simple present moment practices; meditation\, neurosensory practices\, grounding\, orientation and creative practices followed by questions and dialogue. \nThis is a slow and gentle process. \nRegistration includes:\n\nAccess to all 8 live classes.\nAll class audio recordings.\nWeekly homework practices and primings for upcoming topics.\n\nTo arrange e-transfer payment for CDN participants email candace@candacekirby.ca. \nIf cost is a barrier please message me.  I am happy to accommodate.

SUMMARY:Reconnecting: Sensing Our Way Home
DESCRIPTION:Reconnecting: Sensing Our Way Home\nA gentle and intuitive path of healing trauma and awakening to our true nature of Presence.\nReconnecting: Sensing Our Way Home is an 8 week online course created by Trauma Therapist\, Organic Intelligence Certified Coach and experienced Nervous System Practitioner Candace Kirby. \n\n“The whole universe is contained within a single human being – you.” ~ Rumi \n\nChildhood trauma is a loss of safety\, trust and healthy reliance on others; and a loss of connection to the present moment and our true nature of goodness. \nWhen the physiology of a child is overwhelmed by an event or events their inability to digest the overwhelm will cause their system to split off and give way to a false persona. This is necessary to the child’s survival. This split is an impulse away from authenticity and towards survival. \nThe traumatized system has often never experienced the body or the present moment as safe. \nThis course is a slow\, gentle and intuitive path of connecting with and learning to trust our direct experience. No manipulation. No tricks. No strategies. No attempt to master the body; only deep reverence and respect for the intelligence of a system that has survived. \nBecause many of us start on this path with a lot of undigested trauma and nervous system dysregulation we go slow and lay a strong foundation to support our physiology in ways it has never been supported before. To heal trauma we must restore what was lost; safety\, trust and healthy reliance on ourself and others without shaking the foundation of the survival system too quickly. \nThis work of restoration is intuitive and nuanced work that requires a safe space\, safe people and a slow and skilful approach. \nI hope you’ll join us.\nThe course material including practices are restorative; slow\, simple and repetitive which the physiology needs to settle and begin to come into regulation. The safe container of the group will offer consistent support and compassionate attunement for your nervous system. \n\n“This gentle work with Candace has been such an enormous gift. No pushing\, no forcing. Allowing and welcoming everything as a real practice not as spiritual bypass. Not just meaningless words that cannot be sustained\, but true substance\, which allows and heals everything. I am here\, I have ground to stand on\, I am gaining agency. I feel and know and love myself. Thank you so much.” ~ Participant \n\nThis course will help you:\n\nUnderstand the impact of past and present trauma on the physiology and why we suffer.\nTend to your nervous system states with more understanding and confidence.\nPause\, slow down\, rest and find ease in the present moment with the support of the group and consistent guided practices\nNotice that the present moment environment is consistently offering support.\nAlign with what is helpful and supportive and let go of what isn’t\nBuild capacity to be here by first building a foundation of safety\, stability and unconditional acceptance.\nFeel safe in the company of others. Perhaps for the first time.\nMake peace with your mind by understanding how nervous system states fuel our thoughts.\nLearn how to soften and release what’s been held in the body.\nCome to know yourself through your direct experience.\n\nIn this course we will engage in teachings\, simple present moment practices; meditation\, neurosensory practices\, grounding\, orientation and creative practices followed by questions and dialogue. \nThis is a slow and gentle process. \nRegistration includes:\n\nAccess to all 8 live classes.\nAll class audio recordings.\nWeekly homework practices and primings for upcoming topics.\n\nTo arrange e-transfer payment for CDN participants email candace@candacekirby.ca. \nIf cost is a barrier please message me.  I am happy to accommodate.

DESCRIPTION:A Gentle and Safe Approach to Healing Trauma\nFree to Be Here: An Awakened Path to Healing Trauma is a 8 week online course created by Trauma Therapist\, Organic Intelligence Certified Coach and experienced Nervous System Practitioner Candace Kirby and co-facilitated by Jessica Holland; inspired by fairytales and myth\, a storyteller at heart; herbalist; pattern breaker and student of the nervous system. \nThere is no real blue print for how to navigate trauma and the resulting impact on the physiology except for the intelligence of our own system that knows how to heal and self-organize. \nThe course material will help you understand and tend to the impact of trauma on your nervous systems. \nThe practices are restorative; slow\, simple and repetitive which the nervous system needs to settle and relax into her nature of gentle presence and flow. The safe container of the group will offer consistent support\, compassionate presencing and attunement for your nervous system. \n“Because of the gentle and compassionate nature of Candace’s personality her private sessions and programs are safe enough and slow enough for the sensitive physiology of those who have experienced trauma; chronic illness\, complex grief or the symptoms of Benzo withdrawal. \nCandace has a quality of warmth\, tenderness and stability that naturally invites settling and deep rest. The nurturing slowness and ease of her approach communicates\, ‘it’s safe here”.
