What have I been up to?
You may have noticed that things have been very quiet on the Suffolk Alpaca front over the last few years; I have been on a slightly different journey. Three years ago I became Chair of our local Parish Council and then took the lead in a big project to refurbish our village Pavilion. However recently I realised that this wasn’t the right direction for me and I needed to stop and rethink.
As a result of that rethink, I have just completed a course to train as a Transpersonal Coach and in order to be accredited I now have to do 40 more coaching hours. These sessions are free! So if you might be interested, please read on.
Could Life Coaching help you?
You might be feeling that life hasn’t quite turned out as you thought and you’d like to make some changes, but don’t know how.
You might be negotiating one of the later stages of life – children leaving home, looking after elderly parents or retirement – and feeling really anxious about what the next stage will be like and how to manage it.
You might be feeling stuck creatively and be unsure how to move on.
A coaching conversation starts where you are now and together we explore how you can move forward and embrace with confidence whatever lies ahead.
Why Transpersonal Coaching?
Transpersonal coaching aims to help you discover what really matters to you, what core values you hold, in fact, what brings you purpose and meaning.
I believe that we all have a deep inner wisdom, that has often been drowned out by the busyness of our lives or the need to fit in; transpersonal coaching will help you to hear that part of yourself which has so much richness and knows exactly what makes your heart sing!
My Way of Coaching
At a time where we are forced to constantly compare ourselves and our lives with everything we see on social media, my coaching practice is based on compassion not competition. I want to encourage acceptance and understanding of ourselves rather than criticism and never feeling good enough.
So many of us suffer with different levels of anxiety. I have a deep personal understanding of how anxiety can affect our lives, so the coaching conversation with me is gentle and kind, moving at a pace that is set by you, giving you choice and agency over what is discussed.
In my experience it is so much easier to find the strength to change your life alongside an understanding guide; I would love to be beside you on this journey.
Are you highly sensitive? – rather like an alpaca!
I have always thought that there was something wrong with me!
I am very aware of everything around me – noises, lights, atmospheres, people. I find a lot of socialising exhausting and need more downtime than other people; I take things to heart, think deeply about everything and tend to pick up what lies beneath what people are saying.
If any of this sounds like you, then you may be ‘highly sensitive’ .
Unfortunately the word ‘sensitive’ comes with a lot of negative baggage – so often it is considered a sign of weakness and people are told they are ‘too sensitive’ and that they just need to toughen up. High sensitivity to what’s going on around you is not something that you can just switch off – I know I can’t – it is actually a trait that around 30% of people, both men and women, are born with.
Fortunately there are many ways to help us negotiate a world that doesn’t understand sensitivity and recognising this trait in myself has really transformed the way I live.
My training as a coach is especially geared towards working with people who live with this heightened awareness and deep thinking.
Would some free coaching be helpful for you?
If so, contact me to arrange an initial 20-minute chat to ask any questions you may have and to explore if this feels right for you.
Please contact me either via email at clare@suffolkalpaca.co.uk or text me on 07935 622335
Coaching sessions will last for an hour and can be online or in person at my home.
