A 7-Week Program for Spiritual Survivors
As part of our commitment to supporting healthy spirituality, the Wisdom Centre is proud to partner with Nancy Shadlock and Centered Mental Fitness to offer a 7-week guided journey: Reclaim Your Inner Wisdom.
"If you have spent years measuring yourself again rules that were never yours to begin with, this program offers something different. Not a new belief system. Not another authority to trust. Just neuroscience-backed tools to help you hear yourself again."
What the Program Offers
Over seven weeks, you will participate in a small cohort (12 people or less) that meets online weekly for accountability and support. This creates the kind of boundaried, respectful community many of us have longed for after harmful religious experiences.
The structure includes:
On your own, via the App- Weekly 1-hour video sessions led by Stanford researcher and bestselling author Shirzad Chamine
Daily 15-minute app-guided practices that fit into your life
Weekly online cohort meetings where you connect with others on the same journey (led by Spiritual Director/Mental Fitness trainer Nancy Shadlock)
Tools grounded in neuroscience, not religion.
The core practice, called PQ Reps, uses physical sensations to interrupt negative thought patterns and ground you in the present moment. You'll learn to listen to your body as a source of guidance rather than shame.
Why This Works for Spiritual Trauma Survivors
This isn't about replacing one belief system with another. The program is explicitly science-based, helping you:
Distinguish between genuine inner wisdom and internalized criticism
Reduce anxiety through neural pathway rewiring, not shame
Experience connection and meaning without religious structure
Practice in community without coercion or conformity
Research shows participants experience significant increases in happiness, stress management, and emotional intelligence. For those rebuilding after spiritual trauma, these translate to real healing.
