Ep. 74: Coaching Clients Through Spiritual Awakening
In this week’s episode, Heather shares all about what the “spiritual awakening experience” is all about how to help both yourself and your clients navigate it. Heather describes the awakening experience as a shift and growth in awareness, a phase of mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual evolution. But awareness of what? Here are the 3 main things: Awareness that self/others/world is NOT what they have previously believed. Awareness of the expanding concept of Self: Higher Self, Lower Self, etc. Deconstructive process of the falling away of the small/ego/false Self that one has been identified with throughout life. Symptoms of awakening: Sadness, disorientation, loss of family and friends, rejection, abandonment, reopening of old wounds. The fundamental of the spiritual awakening experience is the loss of three things: Identity: “Who Am I?” Purpose: “What do I do?” Meaning: “Why do I do it” What is your role as a coach in that awakening process? To assist your client with the disintegration and the “letting go” of their previous identity. To assist your client in the discovery and manifestation of who the are becoming (in alignment with their Higher Self) Coaching Goals: Help clients clearly see, understand and compassionately accept all versions of Self. Assist clients with identifying when they are operating out of which state to increase integration. Help clients process and release unwanted, denied, repressed, suppressed, and projected emotions, thoughts and desires. Foster a sense of courage and empowerment throughout the process.
