Can you relate to this story?

Have you ever felt the way I am about to describe here? If so, my 12 session coaching program might be just right for you.

It was early in the summer of the year 2000. I was in my beautiful home, finishing my 12 months of maternity leave and it was soon time to go back to work. I had everything, the dream house, a wonderful husband, good job, good enough income to comfortably get by, the ability to travel, two cars in the drive way and this new beautiful, wonderful, perfect baby. Yet, I was severely unhappy, depressed and absolutely disconnected from myself, from my emotions and my dreams. I looked at my beautiful son and realised that even this miracle was not giving me any joy at all, I felt as if nothing was worth living for, I had no desire to do anything, go anywhere, be around anyone or to carry on living in this useless, depressing place I was in. I did not feel as if I had a purpose, a plan and now I had to go back to a job I did not really feel like staying in, yet I had no other education and didn’t feel as if I had a choice. I felt as if my world was shattered and I felt like giving up.

All of a sudden it hit me like a lightning, life is not supposed to be this difficult, it just cannot be. What is the purpose of all of this, how am I supposed to carry on feeling like this? I imagined myself 5 years into the future and I got even worse. Yet, I didn’t have the resources, I didn’t know where to turn for help or inspiration to change and I didn’t even feel as if there was anything to do that would help me feel any better. I felt alone, desperate and I cried uncontrollably.

I finally realised that I had developed a full, severe case of clinical depression. My thoughts had become habitually negative and my focus was on pain and suffering. I realised, I had to do something. I started seeing psychologists, counsellors, psychotherapists and I ended up taking medication upon medication to try to get better. You name the pill, I took it, I took them all. Nothing seemed to work well enough. Eventually I lost my job due to this situation, I was just not coping very well.

I understood that I had to take matters into my own hands. I started reading books on personal growth, spiritual growth and mental thought patterns. I read books by neuroscientists, doctors, quantum physicists, thought leaders, coaches and trainers from all over the world. I watched movies, attended seminars, learned and used EFT (Meridian Tapping) and I started to systematically change the way I used to think and feel. I eventually got the courage to move from one country to another, a long forgotten dream I had carried for years. That shift allowed me to see things more clearly and I started this never-ending, magical transformational journey I have been on ever since. What I realised was the I had been stifling my innate abilities, my inner gifts, my real identity and my courage for all those years.

I didn’t just clear my clinical depression of 20 years and shift my whole perspective on why I am having this experience in this world, but I gained a sense of immense gratitude, inspiration and motivation to share what I have learned, to help others shift the way they think and feel about themselves in this world and to empower them to step into their power and become the best version of themselves - NOW.

I have the understanding that there is a shift in consciousness going on in the world and we are all participants in this shift. I have the vision that together we can, one person at a time, raise our vibrational frequency and thus influence the rest of the world with our heightened sense of unity, connection, passion, love and care for ourselves and for each other. By allowing ourselves to remain unconscious, feeling low, focusing on negative thoughts and emotions, believing that we are not worth it, not good enough, I believe that we contribute to the negativity and the cruelty that we are experiencing in the world. We need to shift our focus and emotions.

To help you do this I teach a transformational 12 week coaching program developed my good friend and fellow coach, Guðbjörg Ósk Friðriksdóttir (www.osk.is).  This program has up until now only been taught by her,  but it has already inspired over 1500 individuals in the last few years to totally transform their life. It teaches you how to systematically change your thoughts and ideas that you have about yourself and your abilities and how you think, feel, react and respond to your environment. It will give you a sense of clarity and understanding, it will help you understand you innate gifts and abilities and it will give you the courage to change.

The program is called Learn to love yourself and it consists of 12 x 90 minute skype sessions, homework assignments and tools for transformation. To learn more, sign up, or to ask me a question, go to www.serenityeft.com.
