In May, nature mirrors back to us the increased blossoming and opening that are also occurring in our lives and within our own nature. We may experience a burst of renewed creativity, the excitement of a new relationship and new beginnings, or a greater intensity of feeling in our physical experience of the world.

This month, Mother's Day is celebrated around the world to honor women who are mothers and to give gratitude for the gift of life. 

In what ways do you give gratitude to your mother?

I am love.

"What we resist will chase us. What we chase will resist us.

Freedom is letting go".

"It Didn't Start with You: How Inherited Family Trauma Shapes Who We Are and How to End the Cycle", by Mark Wolynn.

This is one of the books that you get mesmerized by and want to finish it in a few days. As a pioneer in the field of inherited family trauma, Mark Wolynn has worked with individuals and groups on a therapeutic level for over twenty years. Depression. Anxiety. Chronic Pain. Phobias. Obsessive thoughts. The evidence is compelling: the roots of these difficulties may not reside in our immediate life experience or in chemical imbalances in our brains—but in the lives of our parents, grandparents, and even great-grandparents. The latest scientific research, now making headlines, supports what many have long intuited—that traumatic experience can be passed down through generations.

Mark offers an inventory of tools, techniques, and exercises that can have a transformative approach to resolving longstanding difficulties.

“Flora's uniqueness as a coach is her holistic approach. She supports you having a look at all the aspects of your life and being able to find patterns that connect the dots". 

My holistic philosophy in life and coaching makes my coaching transformative. A whole-person approach means that I am looking at the mind, body, heart, and spirit at the same time - these 4 streams are interdependent, intersect and overlap to create the sum total of who we are at any given moment. They need to be in harmony and alignment, for us to be healthy, feel happy, and fulfilled in life.
