It’s going to be messy

Mar 8, 2022

As impermanence leads the way, change is close
behind. This is when the messiness erupts. It is like
opening the junk drawer where nothing makes sense.

Yes, it’s going to be messy, but, don’t give up before
the miracle happens. It will sort itself out.

And then it will become messy again
as impermanence continues.

Mindful Practice
•Breathe into the messiness.
•Know it is happening at exactlly the right time.
•Breathe out all that is not needed. Breath in the
sense of emptiness.
•Continue breathing in and out.
•Watch the messiness dissolve in both your inner
and outer world.
•Continue bearing witness and watch as
impermanence, change and messiness all begin
again!

I love hearing your awakening stories…keep sending
them on!

The S-T-R-E-T-C-H! course was an amazing experience and it allowed me to grow (and stretch) as a new coach!
Joy Patton, Ph.DMt. Juliet, Tennessee
Anyone thinking about becoming a coach should take this course [Skillful Means] immediately!

This class [Business Alchemy] was so valuable to me as a novice coach looking to start my own practice. Jim Butcher pulls together all the moving parts and helped me clarify my personal vision and motivation.
Ilse ThompsonStudent CoachAuburn, ME
I enrolled in Writing, Creativity and The Mindful Coach in the hopes of reigniting my writing practice. As a student, corporate employee, and average human being in a life that pulls us all in a hundred different directions, I was simply looking for a sacred space for writing. I needed the boundaries, a time and a place, and accountability. I got that in this class…and I got infinitely more. What I did not expect was that I would begin an actual practice, and that infinite possibility could arise from a simple five-minute exercise. I also did not expect to see such a clear connection and application in the coaching world so richly exemplified. Part creative class, part coaching class, part poetry reading session, this class was a truly revelatory experience for me.

I am an already-certified coach from another coaching program, who took this course [Mentor Coaching] in order to meet the needs of re-certifying my ACC credential. Joining this group was a requirement, and thank goodness that it was. Watching fellow apprentices practice Mindfulness Coaching with each other has reignited my passion for coaching. I feel that I’ve found a new learning and coaching path thanks to the power of what I’ve seen and participated in. I look forward to learning more about mindfulness and how to apply it in my coaching practice. Even in short practice sessions, it seems to me that mindfulness tools deepen the experience exponentially! What a joy it has been. I can’t wait to learn more.

Even with 20 years experience in marketing, I found [Business Alchemy] energized me to try on a shifted focus and help me look at all aspects of my branding in new, creative ways. Adding more tools (technology) to my resource quiver gave me options for expression and let me know I don’t always have to hire someone to do what I need for graphic expression. Sarah and Ann Marie were a dynamic combo and made the experience well worth it

I really enjoyed my experience with [Skillful Means]. It was my first time participating in a course in this format and I was pleased at the sense of community that was created with the online format. I’ve already signed up to take another course with the school this summer. Thanks!

The life skills taught in this course [Skillful Means] are not just for our coachees, they are for ourselves, too. I plan to take it again and look forward to seeing how my skills strengthen with time – and PRACTICE!

Skillful Means is a fantastic course. If you are ready to dive into coaching, this class is fun and important!

Body Electric gave me more confidence in the mindfulness and somatic tools I was using in my coaching as well as added a whole new dimension of tools to my toolbox. Having access to effective somatic tools has deepened and enriched the coaching experience for me and my clients.
