Clearing Your Conditioning With Coaching
In my previous blog about how I changed career, I alluded to the importance of clarifying what your values are and clearing your limiting beliefs. These are 2 steps of a really important process, which can help you clear the decks of your old conditioning before attempting to embark on something new.
But Why is This So Important?
The simple truth is that we are all creatures of conditioning. Conditioning we received from our caregivers, siblings, teachers, peers, the media and society in general. We cannot NOT be. We are constantly receiving information and this forms our “map” of the world and affects how we interact with life.
Where you find yourself in life right now will have been significantly impacted by the conditioning you received in earlier life. It affects:
-
How you view things
-
What you believe about the world
-
What you believe about yourself
-
What you believe is possible for you
-
What you believe is safe for you
And all of these things affect what you are willing to do and how you do it. In every area! In your work or business, in your relationships, with your health, your friendships, finances, everything!
Pick one area of your life right now that you are less than satisfied with. Can you see how you are showing up in this area, because of what you believe about yourself, or about this area? And can you see that if you didn’t believe that, you might be showing up in a different way? And can you see that if you were showing up in a different way, you might be getting different results?
This understanding underpins a lot of the coaching work that I do. Many people come wanting help to change something, but often not seeing the foundational shifts that need to happen in order for that change to be possible. As such I have a signature programme in which I guide my clients through the all important work to clear the decks of what is holding them back.
Obviously, beliefs are helpful too. If I didn’t believe this thing I am typing on is a laptop and that I can post this article to my website, then I wouldn’t be writing it, so we can’t just clear all of your beliefs. 🙂 What we need to do is start with clarifying what is truly important to you and where you want to go in life. From that point, we can then identify what is in the way, start clearing it and helping you to develop healthy habits to keep you moving you forward. The steps of the clear the decks coaching programme are as follows:
- Clarifying your values and goals.
- Identifying your core beliefs and wounds.
- Removing unhelpful conditioning and reprogramming your beliefs.
- Learning how to process emotions quickly and effectively.
- Getting you into alignment with what you desire.
- Creating a plan to keep you moving forward.
Generally speaking we would work through this process together over 6 sessions, to get you into a much more aligned place with the change you desire in your life. This investment in yourself is well worth doing. It honestly changed my life. I do sometimes wonder where I would be, if I hadn’t made these all important discoveries!
Pricing and Logistics
The programme consists of 6 x 1 hour long sessions, which can take place either over Zoom, or at my client space in Hadleigh, Essex, as well as support between the sessions on WhatsApp. The cost of this programme is £650. Graduates of this programme are then welcome to continue coaching with me afterwards at a reduced rate of £80 per hour. The most common time frame for ongoing coaching is once a month.
Before we begin, we would do an initial discovery call (by phone or Zoom), to chat about your aims and challenges, and agree a starting point for our coaching relationship together.
Other options are available, if you would prefer to see how you go – please book a discovery call to find out what is right for you.
