DIFFERENT APPROACHES TO COACHING NO6 EXISTENTIAL COACHING

Summary

 What are you? Are you your body? Are you your thoughts or feelings? Existential coaching is useful at a time of life crisis or change where it not about a problem to be fixed but a life to be lived. It is about describing (what and how) rather than explaining (why) it is to be you. It is an exploration with a view to discovery.

Detail

What are you? Are you your body? Are you your thoughts or feelings? Are you like a ball with clear boundaries where you end and the world begins, and can be pulled and pushed? Or are you like a beach where the sea meets the shore but the boundaries are always changing. You are flexible according to the ebb and flow of circumstances?

Existential coaching is about the relatedness, uncertainty and excitement or anxiety of the flexible you. Like water over land you can embrace the world many different ways and still be you. The focus is on being not doing and coping rather than changing. It is about describing (what and how) rather than explaining (why) it is to be you.

It is useful at a time of life crisis or change where it not about a problem to be fixed but a life to be lived. It is an exploration with a view to discovery.
