Coaching and Living From a Place of Intuition – Living a natural spontaneous life

Aug 4, 2023

By Mac Dryden, ACC, BS

As coaches and human beings we rarely need the overcomplicated stories and ideas that we’ve been taught. We each have access to our innate, intuitive genius in each moment when we tap in. If you look, you will see all babies and animals have this innate, intuitive genius guiding and supporting their lives.

As educated adults, we too have the natural, inner guidance which is always present, giving us what we need in every moment -if we would but listen!

As I write this I notice my cat walking to the screen door, suddenly he pauses mid stride with one paw raised ears rotating, listening. The rest of his body motionless, silent, the spontaneity of the moment catching his attention. I too am caught in this moment of wonder. Staring. After a moment of listening he begins moving and is ready to go outside. This spontaneous discovery of the moment is what intuitive living and coaching is all about.

To be spontaneous we must drop our old ideas, and arrive into this now. From this now we discover our current self, our current reality, and can actually respond to our current desires and needs. What does this moment say to you? What do you need to know in this moment? What needs to be said in this moment?

In the not knowing, the knowing that is relevant is known.

When we remember these elegantly simple things about ourselves, and our universe something happens to our minds and bodies. We get to be who we innately are once again, and all that stuff we were wrapped up in before falls away like old leaves in the wind as we return to the trunk of our inner being.

So come join me for this Monday’s monthly Mindfulness Coaching Call where I will be offering some simple tools and ideas that support you in living a life of intuitive guidance and joy.

I thoroughly enjoyed The Art of Engaged Mindfulness… The format of the course enabled me to learn about the impact of meditation and therefore choose to fit more meditation into my lifestyle. Through the class, I expanded my knowledge of meditation and mindfulness, strengthened my practice, and met some great people. Special thanks to Ann-Marie, who shared her enormously rich insights, experience, and tools to help us become more effective in minding our mind.

As a certified EMDR therapist working as a psychotherapist for the past 12 years, my focus has been helping others deal with the aftermath of trauma. That has taken a toll on my soul. This was my first class with a focus on positive psychology. I am left with a stirring feeling of hope that I can truly help others to thrive, not just survive. Thank you!

All of the courses at the Mindfulness Coaching School take a student deeper into meaningful skills and personal growth. I am not the same person I was when I began this program. As a coach, the school has given me ways to own the skill set needed. As a person, classes like The Art of Engaged Mindfulness deepen my commitment to a lifestyle of awareness and centered gratitude. I am grateful.

Probably the single best course I’ve taken in a decade. The somatic templates and in-course use of them were shared from a place of deep knowing and wisdom. Amazing. The reading and sharing of new practices (for me) has made this whole course one of tapping into an ancient wisdom with simple and real practical use. Thank you!

I enjoyed The Dynamic Trio course immensely. Learning new and effective techniques that I can use in my practice is just what I was looking for in this course. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for new ways to expand their knowledge and life coaching practices.

The Art of Engaged Mindfulness allowed me to become more flexible with my own established meditation practice. I really enjoyed the opportunity to dialogue with fellow coaches interested in deepening their own practice and sharing it with the world.

Right Speech is not only something you can take into your coaching practice but it’s something you can take into your personal life as well. These skills have already been extremely helpful in my everyday life from encounters with family to encounters with strangers and everything in between. You won’t regret taking it, I promise!

Taking Business Alchemy after months of my own business planning felt like perfect timing. I had the opportunity to put to test all I had been dreaming and building and had the chance to be guided by an empathetic instructor and a supportive group of peers. Read more
