Healing Work - Tracy Cordner

02/19/2026

This is a gem and a goodie for the healing inclined. Kelly is one of those rare people I've met that just gets it - what healing us, how much of it happens in the body, and how meeting our wounds with gentleness is the way through them.

I recommend this for anyone who wants to take their healing journey into a community setting. ❤️

There’s something powerful about healing in community 🤍

Hi everyone, are we all surviving the winter? As a Canadian, I suppose I should be doing just fine but the truth is, I'm ready for a change. I do like the sunny days though. Being solar powered, I can do pretty much any temperature as long as it's sunny.

Here's what's happening with me:

Healing with Yoga Dance - this weekend at The Nourish Collaborative Topic: SELF-CONSCIOUSNESS. If you are worried what others think about you, this is the class for you. 2 spots left, get 'em here: nourishcollaborative.com/upcoming-events/healing-with-yoga-dance-fzfmc

Honoring Grief - March 15 at JPH Organization Topic: Envy in Grief. FREE with registration, there are still spots left but these tend to sell out, so snap up your ticket soon if you're thinking of coming: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/honoring-grief-tickets-1981349976115

I've been busy behind the scenes, cooking up some updates and ideas for you. I promise to post when I know for sure!

Healing is an endless journey and there's always something new to say.

In this 90-minute healing workshop, you’ll be guided to identify the body sensations that hold your stresses, and rather than trying to get rid of them like we usually do, you will learn to hold them in a compassionate way. You will then participate in Yoga Dance - familiar yoga moves set to vario...

In case you needed a reminder...

The ‘healing’ in TIST comes through the development of a healing relationship between the parts and client. That understanding and welcome of each part creates a new ending to past experiences of exploitation and abandonment.

These ideas emerged from a simple question posed by a supervisee in 2015: she asked, “What does it mean to heal? We talk about trauma healing, but what does that really mean?” That led me to thinking long and hard, “What does ‘healing’ mean?”

I knew it wasn’t the processing of event memories. Clients reported feeling relief and exhaustion or a sense of having made it, but they didn’t feel healed. Going on with their lives despite the trauma yielded rewards of all kinds but not a sense of being healed. After weeks of pondering, the answer came to me:

“Healing is the moment when we accept ourselves no matter what we’ve been through. . . It’s the moment we forgive ourselves, feel compassion for that young child, and even love ourselves. That is healing.”

The very thought inspired me: I felt drawn to create a treatment approach that could lead to that kind of healing, an approach that became TIST.

It's been a wild December with hardly any time for social, media, or social media!

Have you heard the phrases “waking up” and “growing up” with regard to personal/spiritual development? Here’s how I think of these things:

Waking up is the insight that there is more to life than you knew. Sometimes it’s spiritual: you have an unexplainable awakening — for a moment, everything is made of love. Maybe you discover your life’s purpose, or you have an experience of knowing deep in your bones that life doesn’t stop when you die.

Waking up can also be a kind of rude awakening, for example suddenly seeing that your life is not your own – that you’ve been living for other people, you’re not fulfilled, nor do you know anything about how to be fulfilled.

Waking up is a flash of insight, a sudden knowing, a bones-deep taste of what’s really really true for you.

So what’s growing up? Well, it’s the much harder part. Growing up is the practice needed to integrate your awakening. For example, if you wake up one morning and realize you’ve been living for others, growing up will mean learning what living for YOU looks like and then making real strides to do that. Growing up is heeding your wake-up call, not dismissing it just because no one else agrees or sees what you see. Growing up is HARD and it doesn’t happen on its own.

You can think of waking up as a taste of your potential, and growing up as the grit and grunt of birthing it.

In Healing Work, we do both. By exploring what’s true for you, sometimes we bump into great awakenings, but most of the time we explore all of the thoughts and ideas and barriers to knowing and living what’s really really true. It takes time, sincerity, and a certain kind of maturity to bother, since it’s definitely not the easy way. This is why I call it Healing Work, not Healing Fun! But even though it’s work, growing up satisfies like nothing else.
