‘People don’t come to me for Pilates, 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗺𝗲 𝗯𝗲𝗰𝗮𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗮𝘆 𝗶 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗺 𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗹’
^^ for YEARS this was my mantra
𝗜 𝘀𝗮𝘄 + 𝗳𝗲𝗹𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 within the hour
They walked in one way + left another way … happier, calmer, more enthusiastic …
At the time I didn’t know why.
What I did come to see over the years, was the pattern continued + what I mean by that is, the lightness of being didn't stick + stay.
This curiosity (along with my own journey) led me to explore + certify in mindset coaching, NLP, Law of attraction etc
And the more sessions I held, the more I felt ‘𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝘀𝗻’𝘁 𝗶𝘁’
I was exhausted, my clients were circling + I wasn’t feeling the happiness/ lightness I had felt from my pilates days
𝗔𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗲𝗻𝗻𝘆 𝗱𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗽𝗲𝗱 …
I understood WHY I was seeing transformation (beyond the abs) in Pilates
The space I held, allowed them to park their life (visions of a wheel along suitcase, left at the door, only to collect it after)
The breath + movement canceled out the mental chatter + connected them back to their bodies!
^^ the BIG realization transformation comes through the body.
You can’t THINK your way to a happier life, when the body is a walking suitcase of stuff, you've shoved to the back of the draw and forgotten about
And so I blended my two worlds into one
Movement, breath, energy + coaching
And instead of my clients ‘wheeling’ the weight of outdated beliefs, stories, patterns and behaviors with them after the session
We unpack it, see it, feel it, release it (much like a closet spring clean)
And now the light happy feeling is not temporary
It is a way of being
And this is when LIFE is gained through coaching
the body based way.
It works and it works fast
Give me a little 🔅 below if you know this to be true
BIG love
