 Hope you are healthy and happy as you transition into 2013...

My counseling clients continue to amaze me as they move through transitions into new chapters of their lives.  I watch their personal
symbols become tools to help them
authentically navigate life changes.
One of my favorite quotes is:
The soul never thinks without a picture. -Aristotle

Do you have your "picture to think with" in your current transition?

Here are 3 secrets I've learned in the last 27 years  

of my Cocoon to Butterfly counseling work:
  
 3 Secrets to Authentic TRANSITION

1. Stop & Let Go
Schedule down time to stop the movement of your life.  Be still and silent. Let go of your ideas, expectations and concepts.

2. Listen & Watch
Listen to the still, small voice within. Watch for images, symbols & stories that may arise from the silent depths inside.

3. Express thu Image & Word
Creatively capture those visual & auditory communications from your deeper self. Let them be your guide to navigate the changes in your life.

"Grief is perhaps an
unknown territory for you.
You might feel both
helpless and hopeless
without a sense of a
"map" for the journey.
Confusion is the hallmark
of a transition.
To rebuild both your inner and outer world is a major project."
