We all experience our lives in different ways and modes.  We have the stories of our current situations. We carry memories from our past.  We have the sensations in our bodies.  We feel our feelings and emotions.  Some of these experiences are open and easy.  They come and they go.  Some of these experiences are troubling and burdensome.  They tend to stick around, and often become obstacles to our well-being and bring suffering. 

When we bring compassionate awareness to our troubling experiences these experiences begin to gradually (and sometimes quickly!) move into a more spacious and workable place within us.  Open compassionate awareness becomes an active container, allowing for a natural and organic process of healing to occur. 

As we become ever more aware of our stories, memories, sensations, and emotions, our burdens – like tight knots – gradually untie themselves.  Compassionate awareness allows these burdened experiences to relax and rediscover their original vital state.  As an awareness coach I work with you at your own pace, to help you bring awareness to each aspect of experience, guiding you towards a more spacious and fulfilling life.

Over time, as our life develops a growing sense of equilibrium, the experience of awareness itself may become an arena for exploration.  This embodied exploration of awareness aligns with, and nourishes, the development of a more confident, connected, and compassionate self.

My work as a coach and facilitator is informed by the Internal Family Systems Model developed by Richard Schwartz, Relational Life Therapy developed by Terrence Real, the Three-Step Practice developed by Timothy Stokes, Bioenergetics developed by Alexander Lowen, and the non-dual teachings of Rupert Spira.
