As my re-vamped website is now up and running (just a few remaining tweaks to do here and there!), I’ve been reflecting on what I’d put on as the first blog post for my new website. I was thinking about all the courses and workshops I’ve facilitated over these many years in the psychological field and I began to think randomly of some of the titles:
“Taking Stock”; “So you think you’re successful, so what?”; “Celebration of Life”; “The Psychology of Success”; “The Game of Life”; “Making Changes”; “The Smile Within”; “Making Choices”; “Get on with your Life”; “The Sacred in the Self”; “The Visible Woman”
It was interesting for me to reflect to see what the underlying thread was in the ones I could recall.
I found that they were all about self-discovery, self-awareness, learning about oneself, re-connecting with oneself, celebrating oneself …
The thread was the connection or re-connection to Self, to Soul, to Inner Wisdom, to Inner Knowing. It was about breathing into this place as we engage with life.
I had dressed them up in all these inviting words to bring the participants in, because it can be much too scary to put the underlying reason out there. I’m talking about the area we don’t like to talk about in our life – that inner stillness – the Soul, the Self.
I always start any of my work by taking time to breathe into that place.
Simply see it as 3 deep breaths in and out!
My workshops delve further into the premise of self-discovery. So come along to one and see how this simple start will help on your own personal voyage.
