Spiritual Coaching and Guidance
The aim of Spiritual Coaching is to Enable you to
Transform Your Life with Clarity and Awareness and move towards what You Truly Want (what some people call their Life Purpose or Total Fulfilment).
I love the idea but I’m not sure about the
Spiritual bit!
OK. Firstly, Spirituality is nothing to do with religion or belief in ‘god’. It is simply about going deeply ’inside‘
yourself and becoming more aware of who you really are at your deepest level, that is, connecting with Your True Self (aka Authentic Self, Higher Self or Soul).
The True Self is beyond what you may commonly refer to as ‘yourself’ in day-to-day life. At the deepest level ‘You’ are
certainly not your name, this is just a label which can easily be changed. You are not your body either, this is merely a ’vehicle’ to allow
movement and action. And you are certainly not your mind, although your mind would like you to believe that you are! You are even beyond your feelings, although
this is closer (and therefore a better indicator than the mind). In particular, it is living from the mind-space (which most people do) which causes the most
confusion, and therefore the most dissatisfaction, about how we live our lives. In going beyond the mind-space and connecting with your feelings you can start to
realise the truth about who you truly are.
OK! Sounds simple enough. So how is it
different from Life Coaching?
Normal Life Coaching is great at setting goals that come from the mind. Usually these goals are around ‘having more’
or ‘doing more’, and experience shows that whilst achieving them can feel good in the short term, they are not ultimately fulfilling. Spiritual
Coaching is coaching at a deeper level, reaching a level beyond your mind. This allows you to set your goals from a truer space, so they are congruent with your
real desires - and reaching them brings real fulfilment.
So How Does Spiritual Coaching Work?
I work
with You to bring greater Clarity, Awareness and Understanding to both you and your current life situation, and guide you from that new space to develop your own
goals. As a result, these goals will reflect your higher values, will be deeply meaningful, and achieving them will deliver great life change, true happiness and
fulfilment!
Just imagine standing on the surface of a large sphere. Life Coaching operates on the surface of that sphere and helps you set goals out in front of
you, maybe even over your horizon. Spiritual Coaching focusses initially on heading towards the centre of that sphere, getting closer to who you really are and
bringing more awareness to where you are now and where you want to be. This has the potential for much greater change by allowing you to go deeper to set truer and
more meaningful goals.
Sounds Great! But how long will it take?
That
is very difficult to answer generally because every client is different, and much depends on how much awareness you have already built up plus how open and honest you
are, but if you are focussed then a huge amount can be achieved in just a couple of sessions and you can literally Change the Course of Your Life.
Generally, the following are typical of the areas we could work on:
- Establish a deeper understanding of yourself by
bringing awareness to where you are now and where you want to be.
- Understand at a deep level why you act and feel like you do at present.
- Bring clarity to where you are going and to the true value of all the current activity in your life.
- Have a concept of your highest goal - this gives you a point to aim towards.
- ’Build’ a path between where you are now and your highest goal.
- Identify your long term goals and progress towards them.
- Focus on your day-to-day activities and consciously change them so they are congruent with your higher goals.
- Work on short term goals each week, creating rapid
change and moving you forward, whilst remaining focussed on your long term and highest goals.
Of course, exactly how much you want to change is
up to you, but you will achieve much more, and faster, than on your own! And the more open you are to my challenges, and the more committed you are, the easier
and quicker the change happens.
Your Challenges?
Yes, challenging
preconceived ideas that hold you back is an important part of the process and often yields the best results. But don’t worry, I am also supporting you
through this and holding a non-judgemental space for you to work in. And don’t forget that we are working together on this!
WOW... Sounds Powerful. I am beginning to see how this can Benefit me. I
almost don’t want to admit it, but I feel this really could change my life!
One last question though. Just to set me completely at ease, tell me how
your other clients have benefited?
