A Colorful Garden of Being
Creative Well~Being Coach
I am creative and holistic coach that guides, helps, coaches and teaches others how to create well~being. I ignored my “calling” for many years because I didn’t have faith in my gifts. I’d have bright brief moments of tapping into my inner light, only to watch it fade away because of self-doubt. It’s taken a lifetime of illness and a cancer diagnosis for me to let go and LIVE who I am. Today I am creating a beautiful, colorful garden of just being and I invite you to do the same.
Healing is about becoming whole. It’s about the heart work of aligning your Mind, Body and Spirit, so that you can live a joyful life. These days I help and teach others what I know about healing. I believe using creativity is essential. You are going to need to see things differently and tapping into your creative spirit can help you do that. I use playful life coaching tools, energy work, spiritual tools, and body (Temple Pod) work. Visit my blog and sessions to learn more.
Creativity
Expressive arts like drawing, painting, singing, dancing, drumming, and writing can support your journey. These creative activities can open your soul and help guide you on your life’s path. Don’t be afraid to create, to dance or to sing. This is how we connect with Spirit, each other, and ourselves. It doesn’t have to be perfect, it just has to echo you.
Creative Life Coaching
I love creative life coaching because it empowers YOU. What that means is I don’t have answers to your challenges, problems, and fears, but you do. I will guide you through coaching tools that can give you insights into what you need to know. Creative life coaching tools that I use focus on releasing fear, having courage, being patient, taking small steps, giving yourself credit, stopping negative self-talk, letting perfectionism go, suspending overwhelm and interrupting procrastination. My belief is that Spirit is waiting and wanting to help you. Sometimes we just need to ask the right questions and be open to the possibilities.
Energy Work
In my own healing I discovered that energy work could help me balance my Mind, Body and Spirit very quickly. I am a Reiki Master and use this energy work with my clients. I also teach similar healing touch techniques to my clients for self-healing. Breath work is simple way to reset energy and bring the body into a calm place. Another powerful energy tool I use is music. Music frequencies can “tune” our inner rhythms and restore balance and harmony. And finally, my favorite energy tool is Angi (fire) Yoga. This technique uses color and meditations to balance your inner life force.
Spiritual Tools
For me, a cancer diagnosis accelerated my Spiritual growth and I am grateful for that. We are all Spiritual beings. The goal is to vibrate at a higher frequency and how that’s done is different for each soul. I work with clients using meditations, prayer, music, journeying, and nature. We look for ways to open our hearts to joy and gratitude, even during dark times. The goal of this work is to fully live our purpose until we take our last breath.
Temple Pod
We are beings of light and our bodies are Divine instruments. We cannot live our purpose on this earth without a body. How we treat our bodies is important because they are not separate from our mind or Spirit. It all works together. I help clients dive deep into Divine self-care through nutrition, water, fresh air, sunshine, supplements, movement, sleep, and aromatherapy. It’s not about losing weight and exercising. That’s old thinking that usually leads to self-sabotage. It’s about creating an environment within our bodies that supports healing.
Kaleido Journaling™
Beautiful Patterns
I created the Kaleido Journaling technique over ten years ago. I used color, images and words to explore my dreams, hopes, fears and ideas. Each Kaleido page showed a piece of the beautiful pattern of me. It was freeing to use stickers, yarn, watercolor, tape and whatever else I could “stick” to a page. I learned a lot about myself. Since that time, I’ve led many workshops teaching others how to Kaleido Journal. Currently, I have a Kaleido Journaling class on Udemy, and I ask that each of my clients keep a Kaleido Journal. It brings coaching tools to life, offers a place to reflect on energy work, Spirituality and physical goals. It serves as an anchor and witness to your healing journey. Visit the Kaleido Journaling Gallery to see what others have created.
Kaleido Journaling for Self-Discovery on Udemy
Kimba has created a very friendly course that gives you permission to be less than perfect. It allows you to scribble, paste, and add stuff to create pages that will eventually help you connect the dots. Her tutoring is friendly and obviously enjoys and is knowledgeable about what she is talking about. –Wendy
