📘 Resources & Support
Sanctuary is a contemplative teaching and community space.
It IS NOT a crisis intervention or emergency support.
If at any point you are feeling unsafe, overwhelmed, or in immediate danger, please reach out to professional resources designed to support you in real time.
Seeking support is not a failure. It is an act of self-respect.

🌿 A grounding reminder
Using resources does not mean you don’t belong here.
It means you are listening to yourself.
Sanctuary is here to support clarity, orientation, and rebuilding self-trust.
Professional resources exist to support safety and crisis.
Both have a place.
Both matter.
