I believe that understanding and openness are critical for a harmonious coaching partnership. I uniquely tailor my coaching sessions to you, the client. Everyone is at different stages of their journey, and it is your choice of what you hope to achieve in our time together. I don’t create expectations or pressure you to meet certain timelines, though I expect clients to remain accountable for their journey. My role is to support you to progress through your healing, this is according to where you are personally at.
There is much confusion around shadow and inner work, especially in relation to linear time. With this kind of work, progress can speed up or slow down according to the shape, size and texture of the hurdle to face. Some wounds may take weeks, months, even years to tackle, chipping a little at a time, though some clear instantaneously. This all depends on the individual, there is no right or wrong. Some shadows may be visited, tackled a little and then returned to at a later stage when you’re ready. Furthermore, multiple issues can be worked on at once, or you can have a singular focus on one. We are all so multi-layered and complex, this is the human condition! Different styles will be revealed as you start to move forward on your journey. One step at a time. It is through doing that we learn. Progression forward is key even if in teeny, tiny steps. Stagnation is the enemy, and is to be avoided at all costs as it leads to depression. Progress can mean an hour of seated meditation or taking 3 mindful breaths. Breathe deeply now.. That is progress. Reflection and awareness.
We all have our own personal medicine, the importance is that it suits you. Some may love the idea of flowing into embodiment practices, others sitting in solitude quietly listening to the breeze. Whatever you do, do with awareness or you become a stranger to your very own being. Awareness is one of the fundamental keys to healing. Awareness leads to understanding, then to personal accountability, changed behaviour and empowerment. If we have no personal awareness, we are slaves to the dictates of society, culture and outer influences. Self awareness turns to understanding, and when you understand you become.
