What is the New Ventures West Integral Coaching
methodology?
……..from New Ventures West Website:
"Integral Coaching is what arrives when two people develop a
supportive relationship that is grounded in mutual trust and
respect, directed toward a set of clear outcomes, guided by
presence, and informed by broad models about what it means to
be a human being. It is a methodology. It is an integration
project. It is a moment when you feel deeply connected to
yourself and others, with a deep acceptance of everything, and
you take practical steps to move forward in life.
To be helpful, Integral Coaching must be accessible and
customized. To be wise, it must be solidly grounded in
philosophy, biology, linguistics, history, and spirituality. It is both
simpler and more complex than it sounds.
A Calling
Whenever we pause for a moment and quietly listen, we find that
life is calling out to us: inviting us to deepen our connection to
ourselves and others, contribute what we can to the lessening of
difficulties, and unfold into the person we can be.
Sooner or later life brings events that require us to reexamine who
we are, what we’re doing, and why. Personal change—like
growing older, shifts in relationship, or job displacement—or
societal changes—in politics, economics or technology—can
bring us to these moments of reflection. How we listen and
respond to this call determines how fulfilled we will be and
whether we will make our unique contribution to the world.
Wouldn’t it be wonderful, in these moments, to have someone by
our side to ask skillful questions, listen deeply, be fully present
with who we are and what we say, point out our blind spots, and
custom-design practices to help us move forward?"
So, how does it work?
A lasting change of behavior or long held belief has the best
probability of success when addressed on all levels of our being:
body, mind, spirit and emotions. If this were not so, there would
be many more people who loved how their lives were unfolding.
The truth of the matter is that when trying to adjust to, or make a
change in our life, we may be blind to key factors that block our
success in moving forward in our life and meeting our goals or
being the person we were meant to be.
Your unique skills, talents and world view are taken into account to
develop new competence by assisting you to become self-
generating and self-correcting in a new skill or area of your life.
This is accomplished by initiating and maintaining a mutually
respectful and trusting partnership. Through an initial
conversation, Annie asks skillful questions and listens deeply to
understand your unique world view, what about it that makes you
feel stuck, and what you have tried to overcome it to this point.
Through this window on your unique perspective, and a series of
coaching conversations guided by presence, skillful questions,
self-observation exercises and practices designed and
developed especially and uniquely for you, then your blind spots,
your stuck points and a new and broader way of viewing your
situation emerges providing a larger perspective for you to
develop and practice competency in a new skill or area of your
life.
Annie is your skillful guide, your support, and your safe harbor to
anchor while readying your vessel for the life affirming voyage
ahead.
