Coaching
In a nonjudgmental space, I listen deeply to what you are struggling with. At the core of most struggles are conflicts with others or with oneself. And if this conflict is internal that stems from when you were a young child — with your permission, we may incorporate Compassionate Inquiry into our coaching session.
With the mutual understanding of what lies at the root of your conflicts, we build a toolkit whose foundation will give you skills to communicate effectively, and practices to pick yourself up when you belief you have failed or messed up.
Compassionate Inquiry
Compassionate Inquiry is a somatic approach in revealing unconscious patterns embedded in thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and beliefs. These are often formed early in life. However, they may still be influencing you in personal strategies that no longer serve you today.
Being able to connect to the felt-sense of your present body experience can support you in becoming aware of what is not conscious. This awareness is the beginning in accessing your innate wisdom and knowing your true self.
My offering of the Compassionate Inquiry approach can support you in connecting to the best version of yourself by:
- Becoming aware of unconscious patterns that are driving your life.
- Exploring a pathway to free yourself from limiting thoughts and beliefs.
- Cultivating awareness of sensations and emotions in the body.
- Re-parenting yourself through self-compassion.
Mindful Self-Compassion for Teens
Self-talk has a powerful impact on our wellbeing. Critical self-talk can lead to more suffering, increased stress and unhappiness. Kinder self-talk can lead to less suffering, more calm and contentment. The Mindful Self-Compassion for Teens program provides teens with tools to decrease volume of their inner critic and increase volume of their compassionate voice. Speaking to ourselves in a more compassionate way reduces stress; leading to a healthier attitude on life and on ourselves. Topics in this course include:
- Role of inner critic,
- Geting in touch with your compassionate voice,
- Why self-compassion is more reliable than self-esteem,
- The cost of social comparison,
- Exploring your core values,
- Power of gratitude.
