WHAT IS LIFE COACHING?

Life Coaching is a form of talk therapy that puts you in the driving seat of your growth and future. It uncovers who you really are and who you always were meant to be. The style of coaching that I offer is client led and uses meditation and visualisation to seek answers from within. In Life Coaching you are invited to seek out the intuitive answers that will lead you back to your original blueprint.

• Are you feeling stuck in life or frustrated with patterns that repeat in your working life, home life or relationships, like a broken record?
• Or are you struggling with overwhelm, anxiety or chronic stress?
• Do you feel unsafe, disconnected or dis-empowered or hyper-independent?

If so, it could be that unconscious patterns and beliefs are running in the background of your awareness, like an out-of-date computer programme, and are creating emotions and / or behaviours that are difficult to change. Behaviours like people-pleasing, perfectionism or over-thinking. Or you may be experiencing physical symptoms like fatigue, burn-out or deep-held tension in the body.

The seeds of these behaviours were often planted in conditioning from years past and were locked into our subconscious mind, usually to keep us safe in some way. That is a natural process that often happens in childhood; it is how we see, understand and process what is in front of us at the time. But not all of these values, beliefs serve us as adults. Some serve us well, and some hold us back. We don't need to be carrying around beliefs that our 6 year old self created, but we can't help it - because they are buried in the subconscious mind.

So how do we find our way back to the seeds that were planted in the past? How do we pull them up by their roots and let them go? How do we replace them with new empowering and uplifting beliefs?

• Life Coaching is a specific, safe, respectful, guided process of interaction and self-discovery over a period of time.
• Life Coaching encourages and expands your ability to make significant changes in your life, behaviour and patterns in order to and create more of what you want in your life or career.
• Coaching services are not to be construed as, or a replacement for, psychotherapy, legal counsel, mentoring or medical advice.

WHY THE CHAKRAS?

The Chakras are the interface between the physical body and the energy around us. They act like transformers between the two. Prana – otherwise known as Life-force, Chi or Ki, runs through us like electricity and the Chakras manage this prana. Energy comes in from the outside world, is processed by the Chakras and sent to where it is needed or expressed outward again.

This clever energy system gives us lots of information! At the 7 main Chakras points, we can feel, sense and read how the energy is moving - or not. Chakras are said to be closed, over-active or under-active and these states are often deeply ingrained in us from past conditioning or experiences, and are expressed through our behaviour, attitudes and how we react to the world around us.

The 7 main Chakras (there are lots of Chakras but we focus on the main seven that run along the central channel of the subtle body) are energetic containers for the seven aspects of life... from the Root at the base to the Crown at the top, we experience the main themes of Belonging, Feeling, Doing, Loving, Expressing, Thinking and Knowing.

CHAKRA LIFE COACHING

I trained in Transformational life Coaching with Dr. Eve Agee and qualified in 2023. I loved the course and found the unique processes that she taught, demonstrated and practised extra-ordinary in their effectiveness. I personally uncovered many limiting beliefs, and witnessed my classmates uncover and release old, suffocating patterns of behaviour and cultural conditioning.

So I took the processes learned, practised them on myself many times over, and could see an overlap in the beliefs that were surfacing and the Chakra system. Lack of self-worth? Solar Plexus Chakra! Unable to speak up for myself? Throat Chakra!... Over-thinking? Brow Chakra! ... Duh!!

So, how to bring the two philosophies together? As Anodea Judith says in her book Eastern Body Western Mind, 'The body is the vehicle, the consciousness the driver. Yoga is the path and the Chakras are the map.'

I went back to the structure of Eve's Life Coaching system, and took out some of the information gathering techniques and brought in the Chakra wisdom here instead - as I think it gets to the issues quickly and intuitively. I created a questionnaire that uses Chakra themes as guide-posts and used my pendulum skills, learned on my Sound Healing course to get a feel for what is going on in the subtle body and then edited the coaching processes to work directly into the subtle energy body to find, excavate, honour and relaease all that old and out-of-date programming.

I am not exaggerating when I say that it is TRANSFORMATIONAL!

My new OM YOGA & CHAKRAS website will be live in the next couple of weeks.
