What Is Evolutionary Coaching?At it's best, evolutionary coaching is about transforming your whole raison d'être; upgrading your "operating system" from egoic to evolutionary.
As Barbara Marx Hubbard suggests - this is the evolution of human nature itself. Evolving human nature means making a radical leap to freedom from being at the mercy of your subconscious personal and cultural programming and your egoic nature, to living a liberated life of conscious choice. It means connecting with the impulse of creation itself (however you may call it "the Divine", "God", "The Universe", "the One" etc., recognizing this as the essence of yourself (beyond the contracted, limited, "cocoon" of the egoic "small-self") and living AS that impulse (the "butterfly") in the world. The evolutionary perspective sees each human being (actually all of life) as an aspect of/part of One Thing - the story of the entire kosmos, In this context, kosmos is spelt with a 'K' to express that this is more than just the evolution of the external, material world, but also of the interior of the kosmos. Evolutionary coaching is a way to courageously face the aspects of the ego that may have proved illusive and self-sabotaging in our efforts to It's not for the faint hearted, but it's arguably the most powerful, profound and necessary work anybody can do for themselves and for the greater good - for the evolution of human nature itself: - the undoing of the ego and the opening of the heart to the recognition of the interconnectedness of all things and alignment of your individual will with the sacred or the divine. I believe all human beings have a fundamental desire to live fulfilling lives and feel connected to something larger than our egoic selves - we need to feel as if we matter, as if our lives are not just for ourselves. The ego is just too small and contracted to ever truly satisfy us. I like the expression of the two axes of spirituality - having a spiritual life is a BIG PLUS! The left/right axis is our desire to open ourselves to others, to reach out, to offer our gifts, our unique contribution to the whole - arms wide open, full out, hearts unprotected.... The up/down axis is our connection to the highest in ourselves and the "lowest" in ourselves - all aspects of the shadow are embraced - the golden and the grey - we are embodied, earthed, bringing the lower into the higher and the higher into the lower.. again, with hearts wide open, minds wide open, bodies aligned, plugged in, deeply connected to the divine and to the earth. This is why I love the idea that we can co-create Heaven on Earth... if we choose... I am a transformational facilitator, which simply means, I help people to change. I work with my clients on their "software" - their inner landscape of beliefs and internal motivations and on their "hardware" - their actual behaviour choices and and habits. The best way to describe what I do is: "process" work with my clients to enable them to: 1. Resolve the past 2. Become fully present 3. Create an inspiring future I use a variety of proven, effective techniques and tools which I have gathered and developed over the years, sometimes synthesizing what I've learned into new, more powerful practices. As I work with my clients, I teach them these tools, techniques and perspectives so that they are fully equipped to be able to continue to deal with the opportunities and challenges in life that may arise in the future. I help my clients to recognize unhelpful and unhealthy unconscious patterns in their thinking and behaviour from their past (personal and cultural conditioning) and to release these patterns and to create new habits based on values and beliefs that they are consciously choosing. This is often a truly transformational process. Often the cha |
Quick Overview“One does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making the darkness conscious.”
C.G. Jung Everyone's busy - so here's the superfast version: If you want to live a deeply satisfying, happy, meaningful life, all you need to do is: a) know your true nature b) know your place in the universe c) make all of your choices conscious d) create/enjoy/celebrate! If you need any help with this, you might be able to benefit from having a coach - particularly with part c)! In order to do any of the above, you may need to do some soul-searching and deep enquiry. You may need to face your shadows and recognize your light and you may need encouragement and strategies and practices that can help with this. My coaching can help you: 1. Resolve the past 2. Be fully present 3. Create an inspiring future As Bruce Lipton suggests in his new book "The Honeymoon Effect", we are all "programmed", personally and culturally from conception through to around age 7 when the rational parts of our brain begin to develop and we become more autonomous. If we want to become truly free of this programming, it is most effective if we: 1. Know what it is 2. Use the same brainwave frequencies that created the programmes 3. "Re-wire" our neural pathways How To Change"...People are willing to change if they have a compelling vision and are provided tools to help them bring it into being."
David Gershon There's an old joke that goes: Q: How many psychotherapist does it take to change a light bulb? A: One - but the light bulb has got to REALLY WANT to change... I do my best work with people who truly want to evolve. Evolutionary coaching is deep change work. I'm not just interested in helping you to make your life better in one area or even several - I'm also dedicated to helping you create real transformation - the lasting change of realizing your very highest potential, and realizing the noblest vision you are holding for your life. My ultimate vision is that I believe, if we choose to, and given helpful tools, we could co-create Heaven on Earth. I'm not claiming to know exactly what that would be like, nor even how we'd get there, but I believe it's possible for us, if we're willing to change and I happen to know some really brilliant cutting-edge tools, practices and principles that can definitely help! 1. Resolve the past 2. Be fully present 3. Create an inspiring future I use a wide range of tools and strategies with my clients and an have an "evolutionary" approach. I support my clients to face their challenges, free themselves from limiting beliefs and behaviours, and transform their metaphorical "shadows". |
