A SPIRITUAL AWAKENING ~ STORY CHANGING SESSION

A SPIRITUAL AWAKENING ~ STORY CHANGING SESSION


I offer this session synopsis for you to get a feel for what the work of spiritual awakening is like with me coaching. I am posting it with my client’s express permission and her wish that it will help others who are in the process of spiritual awakening.

My phone session today with this client focused on her intention to shift energy/feelings around relationship with her boss.

My dear client was feeling anxious, insecure, discouraged, lack of confidence, worn out, angry about having to ‘deal with this again!’, sad, rather hopeless about her ability to choose to feel better.

What this client described as her current experience, reflecting her limiting beliefs:

When I don’t resist what’s true I feel better, but that’s hard to do

I don’t want to/don’t feel like paying enough attention to journal because I’m afraid that paying attention will intensify what I’m feeling.

I’m not very good at being in process

I can’t forgive myself

At moments I can choose to be in the NOW and that feels better

My judgments are making me suffer

I’ve been working hard on HOW to change things

My boss’s behavior and comments hit me where I already feel guilty and stupid

I’m not worthy of forgiveness

I’m attached to being happy and get irritated when that gets interrupted

As we processed together and I ‘held the lantern’ using questions to illuminate her thinking and beliefs and feelings, and pointing out her ‘stuck places’, and encouraged her to embrace the belief that ‘there is nothing more important and sacred than that she feel good’, and that it is her own ego that squeezes her with judgment so harshly, she came to the following.

When I am ‘awake’ that is, in awareness, what I know for sure is:

Forgiveness is for everyone

I can only BE in the NOW

The NOW feels very peaceful

When I am observing, it’s all OK

I can be a witness, not a player

Detachment is mine to choose

None of it matters much

It’s all a drop in the ‘ocean of importance’

Nothing is life and death

God can always find a way

Things will, or won’t, happen without me controlling them


As she sat with and rested in this knowing she felt quiet, more grounded, detached, relieved, still, more peaceful, very hopeful, loving and accepting of herself, and much lighter.

Since she is dealing with 'body issues' as well, I asked her to tune into her body to feel/experience the life energy streaming, flowing, vibrating through her. She was able to tune into this and expected that as she remembered ‘not to get lost in the old limiting story’ she would be able to experience her NOW, her body, her life more abundantly.

She concluded the session with the statement that her boss, or any ‘Teacher’ for that matter “can only trigger/activate what is already in me”. She recognizes that his behavior represents her very own Shadow Self (see Debbie Ford’s book, The Dark Side of the Lightchasers for more info on Shadow work) and is willing look at him and to ask herself, ‘how am I just like that?’ when feelings of insecurity, anxiety, annoyance, anger are activated. She gets that she is not a victim but is being offered opportunities for learning and evolving.

She is going to use the BURN AFTER READING process to continue shifting the energy of her story to her New Awakened Awareness. And she will do some movement, drink more water, and eat alkalizing foods to support the process of releasing the old energy and establishing the new.
