Reflections: Flow
The Midsummer 1:1 Coaching Programme, Events, and Talks
Reflections: Flow
My first thought for
this month is about how cyclic my experiences are. Does this happen for you?
Over the last few weeks I found myself struggling, maybe trying to fight
against the flow of a metaphorical river. Busy, busy - promoting the workshop
in Devizes on 16th June, worrying that no one had booked. Writing new material
for the fourth annual June Global Midsummer Magic Carpet Ride Circle that opens
on 18th June.... and worrying if anyone would be interested. Those of you in
business will know how your work, and your income, ebbs and flows. Smiling at
myself sharing those words, and how vulnerable it feels.
Choosing to change my focus to how much I am enjoying the flow of the regular Dare to Blossom into Joy Mastermind group: In April we focused on 'Purpose': in June we move on to 'Passion' (in the Dare to Blossom Power Flower that you will have seen here). During May we have simply been spending time together, occasionally in our private Facebook group, and regularly every Friday morning at 9.00 am.
Each week, I draw three cards for each of us, and lead a Magic Carpet visualisation. Last time my three cards were:

A timely reminder to
take a pause in the 'doing' - to simply be for a while, to return to meditation
and the magic carpet visualisations. People in the groups I work with receive
extraordinary insights and practical prompts for action - and recently I have
not allowed myself the time to do this myself.
And to surrender - to surrender to the flow. To allow myself to enjoy the beautiful early summer weather here. To sit on the rocks on the headland and watch the waves breaking below. To allow my eyes to feast on the amazing show of wildflowers on the cliffs this year: the cold spring seems to have brought them all into flower together. To hear the cries of the kittiwakes nesting on the rock ledges by the imposing arch of 'Porthmissen Bridge'. To watch the fulmars wheeling in the thermal currents.

For you, for your
journal, meditations or artwork, start with the prompts mentioned above, and
repeated here for you:
What does 'flow'
mean for you?
What else is
there?
And, what else?

The Dare to Blossom Magic Carpet Ride 1:1 Coaching Programme
Have you tried coaching
yet?
Are you wondering
what it is all about? Maybe you are a little concerned about an on-going
commitment (financial and in time)? Maybe you are not sure what the 'point' of
coaching is? (if so read words from people who have worked with me here...)

Events and Talks
From 1st June: Dare to Blossom into Joy Mastermind Circle exploring Passion
The third point on the Power Flower is the petal we are unfurling together during June: key words are Expanding, and Potential. The question for this month is about why? Why do you do what you do? Why do people respond to you and your work? Read more here, and contact me to discuss joining the Circle.
