Transitions Powerfully Transform Lives
Transitions
are a natural part of life. No one avoids them. Some actively seek
them for they are a powerful way we humans unfold and grow into more
complete beings. Transitions plunge us into discomfort, into the
unknown. By their very uncertainty, they force us into the present
moment, into that place where we don't know what's next and where our
normal guidance systems won't function. Transitions release our grip
on what we know so we can be transformed into higher functioning
versions of ourselves. Generally we only realize the power of the
transition as we look back from a distance. But, as we grow to
understand the true nature of transitions, the transition itself will
assist us in the process and help us move through it more quickly
with profound results.
A few of the transitions I can help with are:
- Living your life fully, including its myriad twists and turns
- Learning to live more intimately with chronic illness
- Finding peace and grace in life's many transitions, your own or your love one's
- Providing the safety to explore and experience your hidden feelings about life and death
- Supporting yourself and your loved one (spouse, child, sibling, parent, partner) during a transition
If
you are going through a transition I can help. I have been there and
know how to navigate the obstacles. I know how not to duck, and why its so
important to embrace the transition with a fervor. The last fifteen years of
major transitions have taught me well and prepared me to be your guide. I
can help as you find compassion for your process and yourself while
you confront your fears. I can show you how to minimize the physical
effects of stress that are normal to your reality. I guide you into
the gift hidden within the transition so you can find the meaning integral to intimacy. As you risk a face-to-face encounter with your
experience a new intimacy with life results. I facilitate that encounter,
in safety and compassion, and with full understanding of the
transition's power.
I was happily surprised at how helpful my coaching session with Gayle was. I learned in about a half hour how to release blocks that have kept me from moving forward in my life. Now I can keep using that information over and over again! People go through years of counseling to let go of the things she can help you release in minutes! —Jessica, Idaho
Working with Gayle I have discovered many new things about myself. I am forever grateful to her for giving me the courage to go deep within and take a look at the loving person I know I am. All aspects of my life have become more genuine. My work and my relationships with others are just the beginning. I feel far more present to participate in this journey called life. Thank you, Gayle, for all that you do. You are my teacher, my sister and friend. —BJ, WashingtonCall 503.313.1260 to see if Compassionate Transitions Coaching is for you.
