The Genie in the Lamp:
“The Genie in the Lamp is that we are storytellers.
Out of our stories, arise our beliefs, and from our beliefs
all that we might be. Our greatest power is that we can
change our stories.”
– Indigo Jones
Using the power of Narrative Voice, Metaphor, Intuition and Deep Listening to shape your Emerging Story.
Narrative Coaching focuses on the stories we carry within us and the beliefs that arise from them, our “narrative voice”—exploring how changes in our narrative voice, alternate stories and the shifts in view that they generate, can allow us to explore new behaviors and new results, that heal, free, and enliven us.
Woven into the concepts of Narrative Coaching we will also be drawing upon:
Metaphoric Insight — Metaphoric insight comes from linking different things and the resulting conceptual changes that can generate from using figuritive language, the reinterpretation of experiences and the new meanings that can emerge—from combining the past with what is new, allowing a breath of fresh air into stale and stuck places . . .
Intuitive Guidance — Intuitive guidance arises from insights gleaned during a coaching session from our shared energetic field, offering perspective and clarity on things present and not always visible on the surface . . .
Deep Listening — Deep listening is suspending self-oriented, reactive thinking and opening one’s awareness to the unknown and unexpected, across diversity and difference, to the person we are coaching and what is arising for them at the time . . .
