When we explore the softer side of yoga and go in depth into exploration of who we are and our place in the world, what we uncover is profound. Here are 3 inspiring stories from womxn who have completed the Art of Holding Space and what they found on the other side of this journey.
Marie's Story
I didn’t realize just how much this process and program would change me. The idea of teaching yoga was the initial draw yet embodiment really pulled at my heartstrings. I just didn’t know how far from being in my own Body I was. I’ve trained in holistic healing modalities and had numerous revelations and life altering experiences throughout my journey, however the one I experienced during The 200hr Embodiment yoga teacher training course work for the ‘Art of holding space’ was one I will never forget. It literally cracked me open and released me from so much pain of my past and from the false self I’d been living from. I faced resistance at first when starting the Art of holding space, and it didn’t take long to see why. The process of transformation and reclamation is not easy and not without pain and tears but it is necessary. I am eternally grateful to Stefani Wilton for taking the time to put this course together. I am now able to live with a sense of being free and I have reclaimed my body, my mind, and my spirit in every manner one can do so. I had no idea what it would be like to live from this place of peace. I went in one person and came out a completely different person. In gratitude, Marie Bélanger
Zobeida's Story
The Art of Holding Space took me on what was a beautiful journey into my deepest self. It showed me where my patterns came from, the root that caused them and how they were manifesting in my life. Beyond that, it helped me to see them as they really are and let them go. The module is presented in such loving and compassionate way, and all the tools Stefani gives us throughout it are incredibly powerful. They allowed me to finally see the beauty of being here being me. . . . Zobeida Fisher
Danalee's Story
Stefani’s “Art of Holding Space” online course not only teaches the student to hold space for others, but teaches us to honour ourselves first and get in touch with our authentic selves. The tools she gives to you, help uncover the answers your body knows already. This practice can be used over again in our day to day life. An extra feature of the course was Stefani’s meditations and her one on one support which helped to navigate through this incredible journey of self discovery.
