turmoil or imbalances? - or
- you engage in “dysfunctional and unquestioned
thinking”? - or
- you have thoughts that are limiting, and self-
sabotaging, instead of self-affirming? - or
- are you in a relationship, family or friendship that
is not functioning properly?
- or is your career a source of problems or turmoil

My emphasis is on empowering you to process past abuse issues
that led to your negative, dysfunctional lifestyle – or resulted
in other painful situations using the following strategy:
- Pain/hurt reduction first
- Functional & emotional imbalance next
- Investigation into causes & external influences
- Inquiry into dysfunctional and unquestioned
thinking patterns, and
- Finally, prevention & healthy life sustaining choices.
Using the services and information resources of Dawn Cove
Abbey Outreach, I focus on in teaching people how to become
empowered by having internal boundaries so they can learn to
relax and enjoy life while healing.
Emotional Health is a state of being where you are in control of your thoughts, feelings and behaviours.
It means you have ways of dealing with, and overcoming depression, anxiety, chronic pain, loneliness and grief.
When you are in good emotional health, you feel good about yourself and your relationships and you keep problems in perspective.
Emotionally healthy people still have emotional problems and mental illness, but have learned of ways to cope with stress and problems, and know when to seek help from their doctor, counsellor (coach) - therapist.
Mental health is a state of psychological and emotional well-being that enables you to work, love, relate to others effectively, and resolve conflicts.
It provides you with the capacity to form harmonious relations in your social and physical environment, and to achieve a balanced satisfaction of your own drives.
Mentally healthy people are in a relatively enduring state of being in which they are reasonably satisfying to themselves, which is reflected in their zest for living and feeling of self- realization (empowerment).
Spiritual Health: spirituality is unique to each individual person.
Your “spirit” refers to the deepest part of you; the part that lets you make meaning of your world.
Your spirit provides you with the revealing sense of who you are, why you are here, and what your purpose for living is.
It is that innermost part of you that allows you to gain strength and hope.
You may not often give much thought to your spiritual wellness, yet its impact on your life is unavoidable.
The basis of spirituality is discovering a sense of meaningfulness, and connectedness in your life and coming to know that you have a purpose to fulfill.
For some people, spirituality may be equated with traditional religions.
For others, it may mean growing in their personal relationships with others, or through being at peace with nature: a sense of connection.

- My name is Klaas Tuinman and I established Dawn Cove Abbey as a healing/learning community in memoriam as a
tribute to Abbey Dawn of Kingston, Ontario, Canada,
and in honour of it’s founder: Wallace Havelock Robb (see WHR).
For more information on Dawn Cove Abbey and its origins, please see About Us.
To address the spiritual side of life, Dawn Cove Abbey has an "un-church"
church - an itinerant, mobile chapel - Our Lady Saint Mary Magdalene -
for the spiritual dimension of human life (services & masses in meadows,
forest glades, by the sea and in your home, etc).
- It is open to all who come - regardless of background and beliefs: all
are welcome.
- "Un-church" because there is no building. "Church" means community,
or gathering. Saint Mary by the Sea goes to where you are - you don't
have to come to it (see Chapel). Our services and Mass are open to all,
regardless of how you imagine God to be (the liturgy is ecumenical and
inclusive, with few gender-specific elements).
Since the word "church" comes from the Latin word "ecclesia" meaning
"gathering or community - a gathering can take place anywhere - hence the
chapel's mobility.
Of course, to round it all out, Dawn Cove Abbey provides personal guidance for growth, healing and empowerment
through personal life coaching/counselling, as well as the many information files that exist on this website - the
information is free and available to all.
I sincerely hope that you take the Less Travelled Road and that it brings awakening and healing to you.
- The site has many human issue & problem oriented information pages, as
well as "solution-oriented" ones roughly divided into "barriers" and
empowerment (skills potential) - just follow the grouping on the navigation
bars.
- These are supported by seminars, lectures, counselling workshops and
discussion group clinics.
- The workshops are participatory and interactive (hands-on) to thoroughly
acquire and practice new personal skills.
- Bringing healing/recovery services to you - wherever you may be.
- Empowerment & Growth start with knowledge: hence we have provided many
people-oriented resource pages also.
- As well, there is an Inspirational" Spiritual Roadside Assistance section
(morale boosters) - to shift your focus from current woes, and to round it
out and maintaining its holistic views,
- there is also a "connection" section on the website - to maintain connection
with the past: people and events - memorials. "Connection" (bonding) is
what is missing so very much in contemporary life.

Welcome to Dawn Cove Abbey Outreach Online
- Refuge and Healing for broken lives - - a place to mend -
Dawn Cove Abbey holistic Mental, Emotional and Spiritual Wellness Outreach Online
welcomes and invites you into a safe, healing and nurturing environment that encourages awareness and education, and promotes balance of mind and spirit.
Dawn Cove Abbey's Outreach Philosophy: that victims have the right to heal in their own way, in their own time,
and that healing involves the true integration of information and techniques that heal body, mind and spirit. And that using both will ultimately lead to greater growth, faster healing, and self-empowerment.

The Navigation Bars at the top left provide 3 "inventories" of
what this site offers:
(2) - Topics that help Growth after awakening - and start the re-
invention process - (In Green)
(3) - Topics on the negative aspects of not having awakened yet
(also, a section on the
extreme outcomes of dysfunctional/sick living) - in Purple.
(4) - other information on the top horizontal bar - in Blue.
I specialize in “inner child" work, especially working with those
who fall under the “lost child” category.
My belief is that we are Spiritual Beings having a human
experience and that the key to enjoying life is awakening to
consciousness of our True Spiritual Nature.
Dawn Cove Abbey's Healing Recovery and Empowerment
Programs & Services:
Helping you to succeed on your healing/recovery and growth journey, you
will need some "tools" - new personal skills (life skills), an expanded
vocabulary to help understand yourself and others better and to support
your new attitude and behaviour towards life.
Listen to the Exhortation of the Dawn!
For it is Life, the very Life of Life.
In its brief course lie all the
Verities and Realities of your Existence.
The Bliss of Growth,
The Glory of Action,
The Splendor of Beauty;
For Yesterday is but a Dream,
And To-morrow is only a Vision;
But To-day well lived makes
Every Yesterday a Dream of Happiness,
And every Tomorrow a Vision of Hope.
Look well therefore to this Day!
Such is the Salutation of the Dawn!
~Kalidasa
We achieve this through integrating our emotional health, mental health and spiritual health.
This allows the Loving Truth into people’s relationships with themselves, others and with life.
In that process people learn to Love themselves, and as you Love your self,
you gain the capacity to Truly Love your neighbour.
Changing our relationship with life can transform life into an exciting adventure.
Changing our relationship with self will change the world." ~ Robert Burney
Help and services are available through in-person, and online counselling / counseling/coaching,

People who really want to heal will find a way; those who don't, will find an excuse.
It began as a concept: it's first public service was electronic outreach through a Computer Bulleting Board
and a centre for coaching/counselling), and included a chapel.
Dawn Cove Abbey has grown over the years. It is now mobile (and electronic) in presenting the various
services offered. The chapel, too, exists in mobile form.
Its focus has shifted to presenting it's Healing Circle Seminars, Workshops, Retreats, and Lectures as
well as a travelling Coaching/Counselling Clinic, while continuing its original mode: electronic outreach and
connection and offering Distance (email) Life Coaching/Counselling.
Although headquartered in Yarmouth County, Nova Scotia, Canada, its electronic reach is international.
