Sustaining life-giving change in times of COVID-19

This time of COVID has brought many layers of disruption and change for an unprecedented number of people around the world. It has brought with it experiences of uncertainty, fear, worry, anxiety, overwhelm and loss for many people at varying scales. It is so important to hold ourselves and each other with grace and compassion through all that is hard in this time.

For many people, this time of COVID disruption has also opened up some space of curiosity about what else is possible: some breath, some connection, some creativity. It has touched some deeper yearnings that have been overridden by the busyness, demands, expectations and attachments of our daily life. We have some moments when we think of going back to the way things were… And we pause... Hmmm… is all of that what I actually want for myself, and my life, my family, my community, the planet…

WE HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY HERE TO MAKE SOME DEEPER CHANGES.

And while intention is beautiful and important, it is usually not enough to sustain real change in the face of the strong patterns that held us where we were pre-COVID.

We need to draw on our deeper practices to be able to engage the underlying beliefs that hold our old patterns in place.  Otherwise, when “normal” starts to re-appear in the world around us, it can re-surface our associated limiting beliefs, and without us knowing how it happened, our new way of living and being begins to fade away.

  • What have you discovered is important to you during this COVID time that you want to keep in your life as the “new normal” begins? 

  • What has awakened in you? What do you yearn for more of in your life? 

  • What do you want to do differently than before?

Join me for a 4 week online practice-based session focussed on identifying and sustaining what is important, and life-giving to you from this COVID time. We will use some powerful and accessible inquiry exercises (adapted from The Work of Byron Katie) to identify and inquire into the limiting beliefs that can override our intentions for change in service of a more conscious “new normal” that is more life-giving and life serving. We will learn how “override” happens, and through focussed exercises, we will work to identify and transform the belief patterns of fear, scarcity, attachment and identity.
