What a year 2020 has been!\u00a0 How do we begin to find purpose and meaning in a year which, on the surface, has brought so much uncertainly, chaos and anxiety to so many people around the globe?<\/p>\n

It is easy to look back and be grateful for the times that bring joy and happiness.\u00a0 It can be far more challenging to take time to reflect and gather our learnings when we are experiencing so many vulnerable and complex emotions.<\/p>\n

Mindful Reflection<\/h3>\n

Choosing to have a practice of mindful reflection can positively impact our understanding of ourselves and our ability to be with difficulties life may offer. As professional coaches including the practice of reflection in our work with our clients offers the opportunity to uncover incredible jewels which can support us on our journey to masterful coaching.<\/p>\n

There are many ways we can include reflection practice into our professional development. We can choose to partner with trained coach supervisors in either one to one or group sessions.<\/p>\n

We can use journaling, walking, physical activities and being in nature to explore our work. We can create metaphors, use objects both living and inanimate as reflection starters for looking at what our client relationships look like.<\/p>\n

In mindful reflection we can ask questions about our work and then sit in silence and allow our unconscious to answer the question.\u00a0 We can use the sound of music to be a catalyst for evoking thoughts about our client relationships.<\/p>\n

We can use books, poetry and art to unlock our own creativity as we imagine our coaching partnerships and businesses and watch them evolve into what we truly want.<\/p>\n

We can get curious about the events happening in the world and look at our responses to these events and find out how this is a reflection of who we are being with our clients\u2026. and so much more<\/p>\n

Gift of Reflection<\/h3>\n

As we end this year, a year like no other, we encourage you to give yourself the gift of reflection. And to kick start the process, we offer you some questions to support you to look back over the year, your practices, your client work who you have been during all of this.<\/p>\n
