It's all good...is it?

Life can be a real challenge sometimes and regardless of how well other people appear to be doing-we all go through trying times. All of us. The thread that runs through all of the work I do with my clients is the belief that our reaction to what life gives us is what defines us and that the most difficult moments in life are usually our best teachers and can enhance our life in ways we never thought possible.

A passage from Eckhart Tolle's book "The Power of Now: A Guide To Spiritual Enlightenment", describes this beautifully:

    "There are cycles of success, when things come to you and thrive, and cycles     of failure, when they wither or disintigrate and you have to let them go in
       
    order to make room for new things to arise, or for transformation to                     happen..."

    "...It is not true that the up cycle is good and the down cycle bad, except in the     mind's judgement. Growth is usually considered positive, but nothing can             grow forever. If growth, of whatever kind, were to go on and on, it would             eventually become monstrous and destructive. Dissolution is needed for new     growth to happen. One cannot exist without the other."

Yes, it is true that some seasons of life are more desirable than others but they all have their purpose in the story of our life. My goal is to help my clients find purpose in their pain and help them see how this difficult moment in their life has the ability to help them live a fuller and more authentic life.

Are you curious as to how this belief could apply to your life? Feel free to contact me and we can discuss how we can work together towards this goal.
