BodyTalk™ Access for Coaches, Consultants,  Organizational Development and HR professionals Upcoming classes:

TBA - call for information  

A major coaching/consulting objective is to help a client gain clarity on how to reach their desired destination.  Most clients have the tools to achieve their objectives, but lack the skills to use them effectively.   By learning these 6 self-care effective and simple techniques of The BodyTalk System, coaches can help their clients obtain these skills more quickly and achieve even greater outcomes.  

Change is something all individuals deal with ever day. Often people are stuck and can’t figure out what to do.  Whether by choice or due to circumstances they engage in a coaching/consulting relationship to assist them in getting clear. Undoing patterns is difficult and often in the course of learning new approaches people become overwhelmed and confused. These feelings are a result of the autonomic nervous system stress response. If stress and the resulting behavioral responses, including defensive and self sabotaging behavior, could be quickly and effectively removed and replaced with greater clarity and calm, the job of a coach/consultant would become both easier and more successful. 

Each technique takes only minutes to use. The Access techniques are easy to learn, simple to use and can be readily added to an existing practice to balance the stress response.   In a one day hands-on session you will learn:

·         6 basic techniques that you can incorporate into your coaching sessions to align the client’s body, mind and emotions.

·         Why balancing the autonomic nervous system reduces stress and makes personal change easier

·         When and how to use these techniques to reduce resistance and increase creativity.

The benefits of learning and applying these techniques include:

·         Even greater outcomes for the client from the coaching experience because the autonomic system is in balance.

·         A value-add experience that addresses anxiety, for example when presenting or performing in front of a group, taking a test, learning something new or prior to a difficult conversation.

·         Greater outcomes equate with greater client satisfaction, which in turn can translate into increased business, individual and organizational effectiveness  and  performance referrals for the coach.
