SOMATIC LIFE COACHING
WITH LYNNE
I fell in love with body-centered (somatic) coaching when I discovered Focusing in the 1980’s. I realized how much of my experience and other’s experiences could be understood, and problematic areas of life could shift when we felt into into the physical sensations of whatever was up—troubling or wonderful—in our bodies. Being trained as a mindfulness teacher, I learned that connecting to our bodies in a particularly curious and kind way is an antidote to being lost in old patterns of painful thinking and suffering. I deepened this focus through my training in Internal Family Systems and Hakomi therapy modalities, with their emphasis on conscious embodiment to bring about practical and effective methods of healing. I have a respect for the deep wisdom in the body that wants to emerge more fully.
If you choose this journey with me, you will be invited into a state of mindful awareness so you have greater access to that guiding wisdom. From this, you will discover how to replace limiting core beliefs with more empowering and expansive ones. I am also committed to each client receiving mindfulness training so the work creates deep roots in your capacity to continue your ongoing self growth, regulation and aliveness through your own practice.
Lynne’s wisdom, compassion and ability to see more deeply has helped me uncover unseen facets of myself and has been key to my personal growth and as a coach. Lynne has an impactful way of gently guiding, of challenging my assumptions and creatively creating clarity through her incredible skills as a coach and therapist as well as her extensive knowledge and expertise in mindfulness and body-based work. Lynne radiates love and joy in all her work and passions, and creates a warm and inviting space to fully be authentic, as she artfully welcomes and weaves all that arises within, from the deeply personal to the evolutionary circles she cultivates and nurtures. - Camella McIntosh, Client
