More about Coaching
The brain
The mammalian or social brain stores long term memory; the stories of our lives.
It is also responsible for our emotions and creativity.
The cortical or thinking brain holds our short-term memories and is responsible for fact-based learning and analytical thinking.
The reptilian or primitive brain triggers the "fright-fight-flight response" and controls our motor skills.
Our stories
Deeply embedded life stories are resistant to change.
Information doesn't often change behaviour.
Fear-based learning experiences block change.
Stories are held together by beliefs about the present and assumptions about the future.
They are related to our sense of identity, and view of reality.
Learning
Active learning occurs when what we are told supports what we believe and we have the confidence to act.
Transformational learning comes when the protective barrier breaks down and new awareness is created.
Change
A coach acts as a sounding board when we need to talk things through, untangle thoughts and identify options
Often, the coaching conversation goes further, enabling us to climb a tree in our minds, get a new perspective, see connections in our thinking and identify what is holding us back in order to move forward.
NEUROSCIENCE COACHING
TRANSFORMATION
Neuroscience
confirms that the
pathways in our brains can get stuck
into certain ways of thinking.
On our own, it can become difficult to change our beliefs about ourselves and
the world around us.
Coaching
enables us to look below the surface and untangle the beliefs and values that shape our reality.
It enables us to see through the fog, allowing a new perspective to emerge.
TRANSFORMATION
Occurs when we gain new insights, see things through a different lens, change our habits and then switch course.
