intention

You are not alone in feeling resistance....

So many of my local clients and friends are sharing in this “curiosity”. After the initial shock of isolation, there’s a sense of ‘um no, I’m not ready for this to end’. 👋 me too, particularly as the world is just so pretty, with less pollution.

A friends daughter, burst into tears when told her school was going back a week earlier, than previously advised. My niece shared she’s quite happy with life as it is now (outside of water polo, that she would like back in her life, like pronto!). When I ran a corporate workshop yesterday, we discussed that even extroverts are feeling this resistance.

Here’s the thing.

Hope is not big enough, without attaching it to dreams

I am at a cross roads. This week, I officially completed all of my health coaching studies and graduation requirements. Whilst I still have to wait for my Certificate, the fact is I am now a qualified, certified Health Coach. In some regards this is cause for celebration, in others, it's signified a big change. And change is scary. At least it is if you don't have an eye on what you want to achieve big picture. When you do, change often times becomes more exciting and liberating than fear ridden.

How to see obstacles as opportunities

There are a lot of parallels when I think about training for a marathon (or any distance) and the journey of life. You start out with a dream or vision of what you want to achieve (be that just finishing, enjoying the event or a specific time). You set a course of action to get you there that is not just physical but emotional, strategic and that requires continual course correction along the way. And then you move forward, sideways, sometimes backwards, gaining experience and growing along the way.
