State of Being Wellness
Being Human
Sometimes life asks us for change.
Maybe something in your life isn't working the way you'd like. Maybe you're moving through a difficult season. Maybe you feel stuck in a pattern that is unhelpful to you. Maybe you find yourself continually reviewing your past. Maybe you have a specific goal you are trying to reach, but can't seem to get there. Or maybe things are pretty good and you simply want to understand yourself a little better.
State of Being Wellness is a place to meet yourself in all of it.
A place where we can acknowledge what you are struggling with and get curious about what’s happening beneath the surface. We can look at what you're thinking, feeling, doing, make sense of what’s showing up, and explore what it might be trying to tell you.
I don't see your patterns, emotions or behaviours as evidence that something is wrong with you. They are information. Sometimes they point to something that needs attention. Sometimes we need space to sit with something difficult. And sometimes they open the door to a possibility you hadn't considered before.
There's no single path here. Just space to be curious, be honest, and find your way.
A little about me
I'm Kandace the person behind State of Being Wellness
Over more than a decade my work has grown through many different approaches to understanding how our minds, bodies and experiences shape the way we live.
My background includes Clinical Hypnotherapy, Root Cause Therapy, Subconscious Imprinting Technique and different Somatic approaches.
I don't believe any one modality has all the answers. They are simply tools we can utilize.
State of Being Wellness brings those tools together with a bigger intention: to create space and opportunities where people can explore themselves honestly, find useful support, and have room to be human.
What Guides the Work
Everything is information.
Our thoughts, emotions, behaviours and patterns can tell us something. We don't have to judge them or immediately try to change them. We can lean in with curiosity and try to understand what they're telling us.
You are not a problem to be fixed. You are human.
Life can be difficult. We can get stuck in patterns that no longer serve us or find ourselves challenged with things that life throws at us. None of that makes us broken. We can work with what's happening without making you the thing that needs fixing.
Change has layers.
We're complex beings, and meaningful change rarely happens in just one place. Our mind, body, emotions, experiences we've had and the patterns we've developed can all be part of the picture.
You are the authority on your own life.
My role isn't to tell you who you should be or dictate what you should do. I bring knowledge, tools, questions and perspective. You get to decide what fits, what doesn't, and what you want to do with it.
All of it belongs.
You can feel excited and scared, grateful and frustrated, happy in one part of your life and struggling in another. The human experience is a full spectrum, and we don't have to label one feeling as good and another as bad to embrace what we're experiencing. There is room for all of it.
What You'll Find Here
There are a few different ways to connect with State of Being Wellness. You might be looking for personal support, a community to be part of, a practitioner or service that feels like a good fit, or simply something interesting to experience. Take a look around. You can decide what comes next.
Personal Work
Work directly with Kandace through individual 1:1 services and focused programs.
This is an opportunity for deeper exploration when something in your life isn't working the way you'd like, you're moving through something difficult, or you're simply curious about understanding yourself differently.
Using a combination of approaches including Clinical Hypnotherapy, Root Cause Therapy, SIT and somatic work, we create a tailored approach by considering your unique life experience and addressing what is coming up from session to session rather than following a one-size-fits-all formula.
We take it one step at a time. If you would like to chat about how these services could support you book your free no pressure consultation. Kandace will answer your questions and we can determine if it's a good fit for you.

The Wayfinder's Place
The Wayfinder's Place is an ongoing community for curiosity, connection, support and exploration.
It's a place to show up as you are, bring what's present and take what is useful.
Through live online gatherings, community, exclusive resources and shared experiences, there's room to learn something new, try something different, gain new insight, or simply spend some time with other people who are navigating life too.
Red Deer Healing & Wellness Center
An extension of State of Being Wellness:
The Red Deer Healing & Wellness Center is the physical expression of this vision in our local community.
The Center is home to independent practitioners, each running their own business and bringing their own experience, training and approach.
It is also a place for workshops, gatherings and classes.
Different people. Different perspectives. Different ways of supporting people, sharing a space where people can find something that fits for them.

Upcoming Events
From workshops and movement experiences to community gatherings and events hosted at the Center, there are plenty of ways to explore something new.
Some experiences are offered through State of Being Wellness, while others are hosted by the independent practitioners and collaborators who make the Center what it is.
You don't need to be a client or member to participate. If something interests you, you're welcome to come see what it's about.
If you are a facilitator looking for a space to share your classes or experiences we welcome guest practitioners into our Center as well.
