I was working with a new client today who we’ll call Sam.   I’ve known Sam for quite a while and he regulary asks me - so, what is a coach?, just to test me and to see if I’ve honed my answer.

Well, today I turned the tables on him.
After an exceptionally powerful session, I asked him, "So, Sam, what is a coach?"

He pauses realizing what I’ve done - almost a deer in the headlights look.
Then, with a flash his face relaxes and a big grin comes over his face.  
Sam says, "What I see before me is emotional chiropractics"  

I am dumbfounded.   "Wow, thats really cool!"

Sam "Well, its like when your chiropractor gives you adjustments so that your body and lifeforce can heal itself better, re-alignment so that it flows smoothly."

Me: "I am not so sure about the emotional part.  Was I working with your emotions or were you just aware of the emotions coming forth?

Sam: "More the emotions coming forth, the adjustments came a a much deeper level"

Me: "A soul level"

Sam: "Yeah, an alignment with my soul so it can flow smoothly . . ."

Me: "And see and listen cleanly to what is going on."

Sam: "Yeah"

Me: "Can I tweak your idea a bit?"

Sam: "Sure"

Me: "How about spiritual chiropractics, a  spiritual chiropractor?"

Sam:  "Yeah, thats it.   Aligning the soul so my lifeforce can be free to do what it needs to do/to be"

Me: "MMMmmmm Yummy, what a luscious thought."икони
