other coach's styles and methods.
- Write
something about coaching for this newsletter in order
to learn, clarify and further your own understanding.
- Bring
a case study to one of the Professional Development
meetings and find out how other coaches would approach
the issues you face by contacting Ivy Ning.
- Promote
your coaching services by listing in our Directory of Coaches or displaying
your leaflets at Personal Inspiration Day. (For paid-up
members only.) To inquire about displaying your information,
please contact Hilary Davies.

Whenever you do these things for yourself, many others
benefit too.
I'm
looking forward to seeing many of you at our June Professional

Hilary
Davies
In
every issue, we feature a profile on our members.
For the June issue, please read about Hilary Davies,
Relationship Coach.
Coach
training recommends that any coach be a role model
and "walk the talk". Hilary is definitely living
proof that attraction can work! When one's life
is upgraded, more opportunities come along and
the individual becomes increasingly attractive.
Hilary's experience is that the coaching profession
"found" her through a series of "coincidences"
(she had been looking for a career that met her
values and gave her a sense of mission) and this
year she is getting married to her ideal man,
who incidentally is nearly 12 years younger than
she is!
In
addition to individual coaching, she offers two
programmes using the principles of attraction. The Attraction Programme is
a 5 evening workshop and discussion group using
a 5 step process. Her clients learn how to systematically
create a life that draws happiness and success
to them. Her second workshop is geared towards
those who are tired of continually attracting
the wrong partner - or not attracting one at all.
"Attraction in Action" is a one evening and one
day workshop that will help participants become
clearer about why they have been attracting Mr/Ms
Wrong and how to attract Mr/Ms Right.
Come
and meet Hilary at the Coaching Inspiration Day
on June 14th to hear more about the principles
of attraction.
To find out more about either of the above programmes
and when they are being offered, please contact
Hilary at 97412414 or send email to: hilary@future-perfect.net

Coaching Tip
Coaching
Tip for Coaches: A Variation on Affirmations
By Lee R.K. Scott
At a recent HKCC meeting, the topic of "affirmations"
arose. Some people have tried affirmations and
found them useful, but for others, affirmations
haven't worked. Why is this? Most of the time,
we are taught to use affirmations suggesting that
a desired state is already a fact. For example,
"I am rich", or "I have a fat-free waist". However,
because such statements are actually more like
goals that we rationally know are not true in
the present, our minds do not want to accept them
easily. We cannot readily convince our subconscious
mind of the truth of something that our conscious
mind knows is just not true!
Here
is another approach you can try which avoids this
conflict. Pick a good, positive word or very short
phrase that is closely associated with your desired
state, such as "abundance", "radiant health",
"freedom", or "love" and spend a few minutes,
ideally early in the morning, in a relaxed frame
of mind meditating on the word. Try to strongly
conjure up the emotion that surrounds the word,
and consider what it means to you, and how it
would feel to have more of it in your life. Let
these feelings build up within you, and then gently
try to keep that feeling with you throughout the
day. This avoids the statement-versus- reality
conflict that makes so many affirmation programs
fail, and thus works better for many people. I
hope it helps you and your clients!
If you have any questions about this technique,
send an email to Lee at protrainer@netvigator.com
