What is Business
Life Coaching?

In A Nutshell

Business Life Coaching as practised by David England is a specific form of coaching for business people who are going through a time of crisis or change, which may be impacting upon their business lives. 

Business Life Coaching is based on Psychosynthesis Psychology, a mainstream psychology with a particular emphasis on self-realisation and its accompanying crises and disturbances at the various thresholds in life's journey. 

A key question in Psychosynthesis is always, "What is emerging in this person's life." Which means that Business Life Coaching provides a context for whatever upheavals the coaching client experiences.

It is normal for people to experience some upheaval at various points in their lives. However, with support and understanding, which this form of coaching aims to provide, these times can prove an opportunity for personal development and fulfilment. 

In a nutshell, Business Life Coaching as practised by David England is about the lifetime's work of self-realisation.

Some of the 'symptoms' you may suffer

Sometimes you may feel you are falling apart
You may be…

Unaccountably anxious or disturbed.
Behaving in an uncharacteristic, even outrageous, manner.
Overwhelmed by unfamiliar emotions.
Plunged into depression without obvious cause.
Besieged by dreams or images from who knows where.
Preoccupied by thoughts of catastrophe or death.

The work you once enjoyed may turn to dust and ashes
You find it difficult to concentrate or take even simple decisions. You feel uncomfortable in your formerly familiar world, and find it increasingly difficult to meet the demands of everyday life and work. You may even fear you are going mad.

You may be firmly catapulted out of your comfort zone
It all seems so irrational and chaotic. You believe you are losing your grip on reality. Yet, however hard you struggle to regain the solid ground of normality your efforts are unavailing. Unable to function in your usual way, you feel scared, lonely, powerless, ineffective, and guilty you are letting your colleagues down.

The good news is, such experiences are normal
They are often part of the process of human change and development. The need for inner development is a normal and basic aspect of human nature, and it is our human nature itself which disturbs our status quo in order to catalyse change.

Business Life Coaching with David England…
helps you find a context for these difficult and chaotic experiences, which often serve as the catalyst and precursor of beneficial change and development. The aim of this form of coaching is to support you through the process of change and growth, and to help you deal with the issues which the process raises.

In a supportive and understanding environment - which David England is trained to provide - these difficult states of mind can prove a breakthrough rather than a breakdown. They can lead to…

emotional healing
clearer vision and sense of purpose and meaning
increased creativity
a more rounded, mature and evolved personality.

They create an opportunity to gain…

greater wisdom
an enhanced capacity to conduct yourself in the world
a greater sense of fulfilment in your life and work
an increased tolerance for others
a reverence for life…

to your own benefit and that of the wider community.

So, the coaching is about healing and wholeness.

What Business Life Coaching involves
The coaching consists of one and a half hour face to face meetings at about two weekly intervals in which we explore and work through the experiences and issues which are arising.

The initial meeting is to get to know one another and decide if we are willing to work together further. This meeting is best held at your office. However, this and subsequent meetings may be at your office or, for greater privacy, at my consulting room in Holyport.

Your next step …
… is to email or telephone me to arrange for me to visit you for an informal discussion.
