TAKE THE FIRST STEP TOWARDS TRANSFORMATION

How does Transformation and Transcendence Life Coaching Work?


What makes Transformation and Transcendence Life Coaching different? Instead of just focusing on outer goals, the focus is on how our hidden no currents prevent the attainment of goals, happiness and fulfillment in our lives. The most important element in transformation and transcendence is to open up our channel to our greater inner self with its wisdom, vitality, creativity and joy. To accomplish this openness to our greater self, our shadow or negativities and faults have to be understood and resolved. Then the inner self, as it guides us, resolves our outer problems, conflicts, distortions and creates fulfillment. The inner self, beyond duality,  is where our passion and transcendence of conflict and strife and peaceful existence lies. Its unfoldment creates an inexorable movement to letting go of egoism, conflict with others and opening to fulfillment, 

The development of the helping relationship is very important in this process. It may take a little time for the relationship to develop and to determine what blocks or “no currents” you have that block your path to fulfillment. Life coaching then helps you chart a course and provides support and encouragement to reach your goals as well as assistance in overcoming hurdles that you have along the way. 

​

Here are a few examples of skills commonly worked on in Life Coaching:

  • Developing goals for personal and professional growth

  • Resolving limiting beliefs

  • Opening to your inner self with its profound wisdom and guidance

  • Identifying and resolving shadow elements and negativity

  • Finding balance in your life.

  • Discerning an understanding of your real needs and what is in the way of their fulfillment.

  • Reducing fears of success and failure.

  • Developing effective communication skills

  • Gaining professional advancement and promotions

  • Developing financial freedom and abundance consciousness

  • Achieving weight loss and fitness goals

  • Developing a new business or expanding your current business

  • Discerning core values along with your health needs

  • Help with getting and giving the love you want in life

​

STATEMENT
Life is a mystery and a challenge, and we’re all in it together. Sometimes it helps to step out of the action and talk with someone about what’s going on. This could be about a particular problem or issue, but it doesn’t have to be. Sometimes it’s about hopes and dreams. About ways to get unstuck and accomplish something – something very particular or as-yet-to-be. Through a coaching session, I see us “walking along” together and “airing things out.” As we do this, sometimes, something emerges that sheds light on the mystery and makes the challenges of life more do-able.

A prime power of coaching is that I (the coach) am outside of your life and operate as an advocate for you — for your life. My role is to be in your corner and see things from outside of your life, not from the inside of it like yourself, your friends, family, or co-workers are. In a coaching session with me, you can express things that might not be true or pleasant and that could have a potential negative impact if you were to carry them out — and then get feedback on it — a check on your thinking about it. You can hear yourself think in a more objective way without repercussions to the ones you love or work with. We strategize together on next steps. This is a snapshot of what happens in a coaching session: helpful feedback, good questions, challenging you to move forward, strategizing, and reassuring you on your path.

Joshua Morrow is a therapist and life coach in Southeast Michigan. Initially trained in biomedical engineering, he chose to take a path less traveled and pursue his passion for psychology, philosophy, spirituality, and art through a career in clinical psychology. His practice is informed primarily by the humanistic tradition, which takes the stance that the fostering of an authentic, non-judgmental relationship creates the conditions for understanding our defense mechanisms, healing from psychological wounds, and reconnecting with our core self. Joshua uses this foundation and his multidisciplinary knowledge to support his clients in achieving their inner and outer goals, so as to support a way of living in harmony with themselves, others, and the world in which they live – what the Taoists would call “walking in the river of the Tao”.


Farid Alsabeh, MA, is a humanistically-informed life coach and therapist who has studied a variety of psycho/spiritual schools ranging from Sufism to Stoicism. He will be happy to help you on your emotional and spiritual journey to a more passionate, successful, and fulfilled way of being.

Transformation and Transcendence Life Coaching


What is Life Coaching?


A life coach is a professional who has training and understanding in motivation and success building, and in this case, particularly in this transcendent and transformational approach.  They have worked through inhibitions in their own life and are quite aware of needs, emotions, and the drive for fulfillment in various areas of life.

​

Life coaching is a process that helps people advance their lives in many ways. It can aid in the development of healthier relationships – both friendships and romantic relationships. It does not use the typical psychological diagnostic codes. In fact, it does not use diagnoses at all. Rather, it focuses on where you are now, where you are unhappy or unfulfilled, and what you want to achieve.

​

The development of the helping relationship is very important in this process. It may take a little time for the relationship to develop and to determine what blocks or “NO currents” you have that block your path to fulfillment. Life coaching then helps you chart a course and provides support and encouragement to reach your goals as well as assistance in overcoming hurdles that you have along the way.

​

Problems in our outer life are a result of inner inhibitions, fears,and negativity that can be transformed. Balance in our outer lives can be achieved by balancing our outer personality or ego with the inner Universal Self with its tremendous fountain of wisdom, joy, vitality, love, and its ability to see past the illusions of our everyday conflicts. Transformation and Transcendence Life Coaching focuses on connecting us with our deep inner Universal Self through discovering and challenging our inhibitions, fears and defenses that keep us separated from the Universal Self and totally reliant on our ego’s inability to manage, solve problems and inspire our lives.

 

The Universal Self in each one of us is intimately involved with the Universal Self of every other human being and the planet as a whole. Opening up to this Self through the work of coaching helps us resolve problems and feel our passionate connection with other people, with a sense of caring and love on the feeling level, not just as a thought process.

 

Working with our inhibitions to both our outer fulfillment and our inner fountain of creative ability, love and inspiration transforms us and helps us transcend the illusory world of duality wherein we see the world in terms of conflict, limitations, and problems without resolution.

 

Please let us know if you are interested in this journey to find balance in yourself and your life by opening to your inner wisdom and inspiration.  .

 

Thank you,
