Sanctuary for the Heart

Free Online Weekly Gathering: A Resting Place

Come rest.
Trauma-safe and nervous system-informed practices.
Each week we will cover a new topic related to trauma, the nervous system and awakening to our nature of Presence.
In 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. A solid anchor that allows our physiology to recognize safety and support here in the present moment.
The 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.
We 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.
We 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.
Having 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.
Practice brings us back here, home, where we can align our internal compass with peace, unconditional love and eternal wisdom.
The safe container of the group will offer rest, consistent support, compassionate presencing and attunement for your nervous system.

Immersed in Love
2024-04-26 10:00 - 12:00
Trauma Safe Practices
Have you ever wondered about the true nature of Presence (Love) and why it can seem so elusive or even non existent. 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.

“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.”

Candace will guide the group in gentle neurosensory (nervous system) practices and engage in dialogue and questions with participants.

“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. I love and appreciate that about you! ~ Participant

I look forward to welcoming you into this safe and compassionate space.

Afraid to Stop: The Momentum of the Separate Self
2024-04-17 10:00 - 12:00
Trauma Informed
The momentum of the survival self is fueled by the activation of the Fight/Flight/Freeze survival mechanism in the nervous system. 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.

“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.

Solid Ground. Soft Body. Sacred Moment
2024-04-05 11:00 - 13:00
Trauma Sensitive Spirituality
Arriving here in each moment we find safety and our connection to the ground so that our bodies can soften into each Sacred moment. We arrive over and over again until we are at rest here.

Come rest.
Each week we will cover a new topic related to trauma, the nervous system and awakening to our nature of ease.
In 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. A solid anchor that allows our physiology to recognize safety and support here in the present moment.
The 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.
We 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.
We 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.
Having 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.
Practice brings us back here, home, where we can align our internal compass with peace, unconditional love and eternal wisdom.
The safe container of the group will offer rest, consistent support, compassionate presencing and attunement for your nervous system.

Healing Trauma and Restoring Capacity in the Nervous System
2024-03-15 11:00 - 13:00, 2024-03-08 11:00 - 13:00, 2024-03-01 11:00 - 13:00, 2024-02-23 11:00 - 13:00, 2024-02-16 11:00 - 13:00
The Role of the Nervous System in Spiritual Awakening.
From Separation to Union in Presence
Healing Trauma and Restoring Capacity in the Nervous System is an 8 week online course created by Trauma Therapist, Spiritual Mentor, OI Certified Coach and experienced Nervous System Practitioner Candace Kirby.
There 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.
The course material will help you understand and have compassion for the impact of trauma on your nervous systems. 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.

“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

I hope you’ll join us.
This course will help you:

Understand the impact of past and present trauma on the physiology and why we suffer
Learn to provide gentle and consistent care for your nervous system
Pause slow down, rest and find ease in the present moment with the support of the group and consistent guided practices
Notice that the present moment is consistently offering support.
Align with what is helpful and supportive and let go of what isn’t
Build capacity to be here by first building a foundation of safety, stability and unconditional acceptance
Shift through the repetition of slow and nourishing new practices
Feel safe in the company of others. Perhaps for the first time
Learn to trust that the Love you long for is already and always here and that you are not separate from that Love
Know yourself as you really are

“You do not have to walk on your knees for a hundred miles through the desert repenting. You only have to let the soft animal of your body love what it loves.”~ Mary Oliver – Wild Geese

In this course we will engage in teachings, simple present moment practices; meditation, grounding, orientation and creative practices followed by questions and dialogue.
This is a slow and gentle process.

“I am so deeply grateful to have found these practices. I wish they had an icon for jumping up and down and clapping your hands. Maybe doing cartwheels. Thank you, Candace, for this simple, gentle way of feeling safe in my own skin.”~ Group Participant

Access to all 8 live classes.
All class audio recordings.
