THE MATRIX OF SHAMANIC COACHING

ack in the early 1980s I hired a coach to help with growing my business. What he provided was very useful. Yet, I found there were times when I knew what he suggested was correct, but something in me froze. I stopped. I either didn't know how to do it or felt I couldn't do it. Eventually though, we would get through it. This experience sparked my search for developing a way to dissolve these blocks for others and myself.

Shamanic Coaching was the result of this exploration for a way to not just coach but also to transform. Below are aspects that are woven from other disciplines to create Shamanic Coaching. Every aspect has it strength and its weakness.

Life is like a dogsled team. If you ain't the lead dog, the scenery never changes.

  • Traditional coaching supports change - however, traditional coaching runs into limitations, old patterns and limiting beliefs that resist or sabotage change

  • Therapy focuses on understanding and releasing emotions - however, therapy can get entangled in mental analysis that does not produce the desired change

  • Energy work catalyzes change - however, energy work does not guide and support the movement of change or reinforce the new change, so it becomes the norm

  • Self-help encourages self-reliance - however, self-help may not allow for an outside perspective that can expedite and support change

  • Ceremonial practices allow for a place of reflection and a deeper connection to Spirit - however, ceremonies can limit input from others and evolve to be an escape from the other aspects of life

There is huge value in all the above approaches. Often as we progress through life, we bring more of these aspects into our lives to ease and enrich the journey. It is the goal of Shamanic Coaching to bring the best of all these five approaches to facilitate a client's evolutional change™ in a manner that has grace and permanence.

When we unite the ancient traditions of our ancestors with the knowledge and skills of the western development, we create a powerful technology - a Natural Alchemy™. Shamanic Coaching marries the wisdom of the past with the execution of the present information age. Some would call the change process a healing, and others have called it learning. Many will say it just works.
