Living with Presence
The greatest gift you can give someone is your presence.
When I coach, I am fully present and centered in my heart, making that the basis of the sacred space for the coaching experience. As your coach, I love and accept you for all that you are and all that you can be. I love all of you, as I love myself, with all my heart.
It is this love and compassion for the Self in me and the Self in you that is activated and unites us in the coaching journey.
Compassion, centered in the heart, is the universal force that feels, trusts, heals, believes, blesses and is felt by others no matter what the coaching focus. The coaching relationship offers a unique experience of shared exploration, discovery, realization, healing, acceptance and Self-empowerment.
“Love is the affinity which links and draws together the elements of the world... Love, in fact, is the agent of universal synthesis.” Teilhard de Chardin
The World is A Mirror
Intimacy with others starts by being intimate with your Self.
Paying attention to what matters, what gives you energy and takes it away; what brings you joy, pain, frustration…to know yourself is to love yourself.
Honour yourself by listening for:
- what you like
- what you love
- what you want
- what you need and
- what nourishes you.
In the process you will uncover what matters deeply to you and you will grow to understand your purpose and the path you are here to walk will present itself to you and you will recognize those whom you are here to serve.
"To love oneself is the beginning of a life-long romance." Oscar Wilde
Cultivating presence is a mindfulness practice that starts with tuning in and asking yourself the question "Who am I?" and "What Do I want?" and learning to listen, deeply and actively.
Our special workshop event "What Do I Really Hunger For?" facilitates this process.
6 Ways of Living with Presence
“Transformation came when I started to love myself.” John Assaraf
Imagine if …
- You treated others in the way you would like your dearest friend to treat you…with sensitivity and compassion.
- You acknowledged yourself and others – really sensed what you felt, were open, sensed how others feel about you. Invited dialogue, engaged them and shared insights and experiences.
- You were relaxed, authentic and allowed yourself to be vulnerable with others so they could allow themselves to be too.
- You were observant, accepting and without judgment and recognized mistakes as opportunities for learning.
- You appreciated each moment, felt it and expressed gratitude for all that you had been gifted, your strengths, opportunities and experiences.
- You could feel and express yourself with love and compassion in all that you do.
Who could resist you? The world would open to you and your presence would nourish the world and in return the world would nourish you!
"Every time you smile at someone, it is an action of love, a gift to that person, a beautiful thing." Mother Teresa
