A solid anchor that allows our physiology to recognize safety and support here in the present moment. \nThe practices I teach are a simple and slow way of connecting to the present moment through the senses. They will help to restore a sense of safety\, stability and support to the physiology. \nWe don’t want to be pushed in all directions by the media\, our own minds and the collective surges of overwhelm. Those of us who aren’t in the epicentre of a crisis we need to hold our ground. To be present. To be connected to our source of courage\, love and wisdom. To sit or stand upright in our solidarity with truth and all that is meaningful\, good and sound in this world. We need to hold onto the intention to always speak and act from a place of greater wisdom and unconditional love. \nWe are not in control of what is happening in the world but perhaps in our willingness to stop and allow our systems to rest we can offer that rest to those around us. We can be a small island of calm in a very turbulent ocean. \nHaving a practice is no longer a luxury. Having a practice that connects us to the heart and soul of each moment is essential if we are ever going to restore a state of equilibrium in ourselves and our collective humanity. \nPractice brings us back here\, home\, where we can align our internal compass with peace\, unconditional love and eternal wisdom. \nThe safe container of the group will offer rest\, consistent support\, compassionate presencing and attunement for your nervous system. \nYou are invited to join me for this free online weekly event. \n \n \n \n \n \n Free Online Weekly Gathering\nREGISTER HERE TO RECEIVE THE ZOOM LINK\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Email Address\n \n \n \n \n \n \n First Name\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Last Name\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Message\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n 4 + 9 = \n \n \n Submit URL:https://candacekirby.ca/event/free-online-weekly-gathering-a-resting-place-2024-05-26-2024-06-30/ CATEGORIES:Free Event,Weekly ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://candacekirby.ca/wellness/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/paolo-nicolello-KY6NHtBWJB8-unsplash.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Candace Kirby":MAILTO:candace@candacekirby.ca END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20240623T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Vancouver:20240623T110000 DTSTAMP:20260430T100539 CREATED:20230913T200027Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240629T123129Z UID:10001287-1719136800-1719140400@candacekirby.ca SUMMARY:Free Online Weekly Gathering: A Resting Place DESCRIPTION:Come rest.\nTrauma-safe and nervous system-informed practices.\nEach week we will cover a new topic related to trauma\, the nervous system and awakening to our nature of Presence. \nIn order to stabilize and support our physiology as we heal from trauma or chronic stress we must find our sense of ground in the present moment.

Are you frustrated with seeking and trying to figure it all out? During this event I will talk about the reasons that Love can seem so far away when in fact we are immersed in it. We are it. I know you’ve heard these words before but come and join me as I point to what you’ve been seeking in a very simple and embodied way. \n\n“Candace embodies gentleness\, warmth and sincerity that invites settling and deep rest. The nurturing slowness and softness of her voice communicates\, “it’s safe here. Her particular focus on the role of the nervous system in healing trauma and spiritual awakening allows her students to meet the past slowly and safely as it arises in the unconditional body of right now.” \n\nCandace will guide the group in gentle neurosensory (nervous system) practices and engage in dialogue and questions with participants. \n\n“Thank you for guiding us. Your guidance is like a lantern in the dark woods.I am so grateful that even though you play the role of a teacher you are always a person first.

If you have experienced trauma or chronic stress it may seem impossible to stop and settle into the moment. There is no point in putting pressure on a system that is already under pressure. During this event I will be teaching you some slow and simple practices that will support your system to slow down and come to rest. \n\n“Candace embodies gentleness\, warmth and sincerity that invites settling and deep rest.

We need to hold onto the intention to always speak and act from a place of greater wisdom and unconditional love. \nWe are not in control of what is happening in the world but perhaps in our willingness to stop and allow our systems to rest we can offer that rest to those around us.

The 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\n “Candace helped me re-learn how to tap into my five senses and notice all of the resources that are here to support me. She has helped me to untie some of the knots of my conditioned self that have kept me pushing\, forcing\, controlling and efforting my way through life. I can now see that through tenderness\, gentleness\, and non-effort I can feel into the pace of my own Soul.”~ Group Participant \n\nI hope you’ll join us. \nThis course will help you:\n\nUnderstand the impact of past and present trauma on the physiology and why we suffer\nLearn to provide gentle and consistent care for your nervous system\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 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\nShift through the repetition of slow and nourishing new practices\nFeel safe in the company of others.

A solid anchor that allows our physiology to recognize safety and support here in the present moment. \nThe practices I teach are a simple and slow way of connecting to the present moment through the senses. They will help to restore a sense of safety\, stability and support to the physiology. \nWe don’t want to be pushed in all directions by the media\, our own minds and the collective surges of overwhelm. Those of us who aren’t in the epicentre of a crisis we need to hold our ground. To be present. To be connected to our source of courage\, love and wisdom. To sit or stand upright in our solidarity with truth and all that is meaningful\, good and sound in this world. We need to hold onto the intention to always speak and act from a place of greater wisdom and unconditional love. \nWe are not in control of what is happening in the world but perhaps in our willingness to stop and allow our systems to rest we can offer that rest to those around us. We can be a small island of calm in a very turbulent ocean. \nHaving a practice is no longer a luxury. Having a practice that connects us to the heart and soul of each moment is essential if we are ever going to restore a state of equilibrium in ourselves and our collective humanity. \nPractice brings us back here\, home\, where we can align our internal compass with peace\, unconditional love and eternal wisdom. \nThe safe container of the group will offer rest\, consistent support\, compassionate presencing and attunement for your nervous system. \nYou are invited to join me for this free online weekly event. \n \n \n \n \n \n Free Online Weekly Gathering\nREGISTER HERE TO RECEIVE THE ZOOM LINK\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Email Address\n \n \n \n \n \n \n First Name\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Last Name\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Message\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n 3 + 9 = \n \n \n Submit URL:https://candacekirby.ca/event/free-online-weekly-gathering-a-resting-place/2024-02-11/ CATEGORIES:Free Event,Weekly ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://candacekirby.ca/wellness/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/paolo-nicolello-KY6NHtBWJB8-unsplash.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Candace Kirby":MAILTO:candace@candacekirby.ca END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
