Inspired by Carolyn Elliotts work around shadow integration that she calls “Existential Kink” I deepened my embodied experience of the importance of feeling everything.

Every emotion, every experience, every thought and emotion invites us to feel more deeply and be more present with what is.

They also provide a chance for our ego to jump at them and judge them as good, bad, (in)acceptable, (a)moral etc. The judgment is completely made up and in our perception of reality.

It is our choice to buy into the judgement’s stories or to question them or to even laugh at them and see them as the made-up constructs of our minds. That’s up to us.

An incredibly powerful question in coaching is “What advantages do you get out of this consciously unwanted situation?”

An honest answer will provide you insight into your habitual judgment and opens up a whole new perspective on this situation and life.

The truth is that you can find pleasure everywhere.

Imagine yourself riding your bike on the street and a car passes you way too close. Immediately you will feel a rush of adrenaline through your body. You become very alert and your heart beats faster. Then you notice a tension in your belly or chest, maybe a lump in your throat as you almost explode from the anger inside you. The sensations and emotions take you over.

Do you feel that? Now imagine that you take those sensations and decide to feel them as pleasurable life force in your body. Imagine that life is about making experiences and feeling sensations. Then this situation is amazing! You receive the thrill of physical danger and the powerful emotion of anger – such a rich moment. Savor it.

If life is indeed about fully experiencing all of it, the best way to decrease your life force is to numb yourself. You probably know the main ways to do that, like drugs of all kinds, repressing emotions, watching TV, overeating etc. You have your own proven mix of numbing activities.

What consequences do they have on your life? Are you willing to pay that price?
Instead of dialing down your ability to feel I suggest increasing it. It will take courage, dedication and practice and it will allow you to experience a deep richness in life that fulfills you deeply.

Are you ready and willing to go there? I can be your emotional and mental support. I can be your guide on the side who invites you to recognize your inherent power and freedom to live your best life.

I have spots open in my 9 month coaching program “Rise from Within” and would love to talk with you about the possibility of working together.

However, I only look for women who are willing to actually change their lives. I’m not the coach who drags you along with motivational speeches.

I want to work with women who know that there is a powerful dream and vision inside of them and struggle to bring it to life.

Also, in my coaching you will continue to feel your body and emotions, so you need to be willing to accept and love your body.

Does that sound good to you? Then please reach out to me and we’ll talk more.
I love hearing from you!
