About Us

I’m Candace! I am the owner and founder of Shifting Light Studio. I am a mother to 2 incredible children and the oldest sibling of 3.

I am a retired Med Tech turned Holistic healer. I am also a Yoga teacher, retreat facilitator, energy worker and Naturopath. I have a deep passion to serve the community and help others feel whole within themselves.

I also use an energy aspect that really started this journey for me personally. Taking my initial Reiki training is what truly sent me down this path of embracing holistic healing methods outside of the typical medication route! 

I have a solid background in medicine beginning with my time in a Dr’s office as an unlicensed practical nurse then with the CAF as a medical technician. Since then I’ve deepened my understanding of Anatomy and Physiology through my Yoga Teachers Certification and Holistic Manual Body Certification that taught a combination of Thai massage (stretching) and shiatsu massage (gentle hands on massage/meridian clearing) which helped create the practitioner I am today.

Taking my Yoga Teachers training is when I was able to recognize the effects of our thoughts on our bodies and the sensations within our bodies on our thoughts. 

We, as a society, are locked in Fight or Flight. Sometimes as young as birth! 

We have become so busy, that we have learned to disregard our physical needs and this is creating disease in the body. When our nervous system is “stuck” in our fear response the rest of our body and many important functions can no longer do their job. All of the training I have accumulated over these last 5 or so years has really been centred on creating a safe place within your own body to start to heal all that ails you.

Whether you suffer from mental health concerns such as: anxiety or depression, physical ailments like: tension or pain, sleep issues, fatigue, have experienced trauma or are just plain overwhelmed from these last 3 years of trying to survive; then a treatment just might be the answer to helping you start to feel better again, get back to YOU and begin your healing process!

I’ve been practicing yoga for 10+ years when I decided to take my practice a step further. I completed my 200 hour YTT in August 2022 and very recently completed my teacher training in restorative yoga.

My passion is to share the benefits of yoga and help others thrive by nurturing their body, mind and soul through yoga with the hope that they leave the mat feeling stronger, refreshed, and balanced.

Hi, I’m Kayla! I’m the mom of two beautiful children, and married to a wonderful, supportive husband. I live in the country where I’ve intentionally built a simple, peaceful life. I enjoy gardening, cooking wholesome meals, and watching my little humans explore and grow.

I discovered Reiki through my own spiritual journey. When I noticed a calmness and a gentle shift within myself, I saw a change in everything around me. There was a domino effect in my home. We felt lighter, calmer, more at ease, and more connected than ever.

It was through this experience that I came to the realization that this is a gift I want to share with others. I help guide others to their inner light. I grant them the opportunity to feel more connected not only to themselves, but the world around them.

I am certified by the Canadian Reiki Association and offer one hour healing sessions. There is something so special about holding space for another human and granting them a space to let go and fully relax. I love meeting new people and have created a space that welcomes every body.

Feel free to contact me with any questions you may have!

I look forward to meeting you.

With gratitude,

Kayla

I have been a devoted student of life and invested in learning energy medicine in 2018. Transitioning from my role as an ER & addictions nurse to a full-time energy medicine practitioner, I spend time sharing holistic healing modalities to my social media following.

I discovered this transformative modality after realizing I was too guarded for traditional talk therapy, and it profoundly changed my life. Now I help busy individuals align with their true selves by showing them how to unlock emotional traumas quickly and effectively. Through this work, I empower clients to release stress and anxious feelings, ease physical discomforts & reconnect with their true selves, as well as manifest the life they truly desire— by simply aligning the energy they already have access to.

As I like to remind my clients;

“Your healing isn’t something outside of you—it’s already within. My job is to show you how to access it.”
