We work with people who are at a turning point in life. You may be:

- Experiencing shifts of consciousness to a more spiritual orientation.

You will benefit from coaching with us as you:
- Take steps to success on your own terms. Change is always emotionally stressful. At a crucial time in your life you will have your own friendly, perceptive guide and mentor who will be there with you as you move through the inevitable stress of change and times of doubt. We will help you to seize opportunities and jump through fear, and build a life that expresses the whole of you.
- Master your creative process. There are crucial points in the act of creating when it is necessary to build momentum, hold creative tension, or let go and trust. This knowledge can make the difference between creating what you really want, or creating more of the same. We have a map of the territory and expertise in the creative process. We will provide guidance on how to better understand your creative process and help you to become more aware of your strengths and limitations.
- Stay anchored and centered through these major societal changes that are impacting us all. We share your primary concern to keep your feet firmly on the ground as you create the new. Combining practicality with an inspiring vision is a winning formula that will propel you towards your dreams.
- Create an authentic and empowered life. We will support you to discover who you truly are, what gives your life most meaning, purpose and passion, and how to make conscious choices about how you really want to live. We call this living intentionally; it is not always easy but it is very fulfilling.
- Find a new clarity and a practical focus. Even when you are unclear what you want, we will help you to reflect, evaluate, set priorities, and discover what is most important to you.
- Clear your emotions as you let go of those aspects of the past you no longer need and learn how to use your emotional energy to support you.
- Clarify the vision which will get you through even the darkest times and propel you into your new life. We’ll support you to trust your intuition and develop the necessary attitudes, skills and knowledge to realize your potential.
- Take inspired action as we hold you accountable to realize the promises you make to yourself.

Woods Elliott
Woods was born in the US and studied philosophy and art in college. He was a conscientious objector during the Vietnam war, a civil rights, women's rights, and mental patients activist, and great admirer of native Americans. He earned a master's degree in social work in '69 and pursued a fifteen year career in the mental health field in psychiatric, child abuse, relationship counseling, family therapy and correctional settings and became licensed for private practice in both New York and Colorado. By the late '70's, he couldn't contain a midlife longing for fresh adventures, and migrated to the Rocky Mountains in Colorado. Here he taught himself home-based furniture restoration skills and had a love affair with Mother Nature, which stirred him into environmental activism, prospecting for gold and Indian artifacts, and cultivating an alternative lifestyle. Open heart surgery at age 49 opened his heart in more ways than one, and cast him onto a more spiritual path. Daily meditator, lifelong ponderer and writer, Woods would love to see the birth of a new spirit- and nature-centered society, and eventually a whole new world. His first finished book "Dazzlephrenia: a Gallery of Thought on Consciousness, Awe for Mother Nature, and Wonderment over the Dazzling Cosmos", will be published this year. |

Our vision for you:
We hold a big vision alongside you. We deeply believe what is happening globally is the opening of a great window of opportunity to create lives which more fully express who we truly are as individuals and to co-create a world that is far more peaceful and sustainable than the one that’s ailing. Shifts in consciousness are waking us up to new ways of seeing and experiencing, which shake our sense of who we are, why we’re here, and what we want.
You may be reworking your priorities and needing to make some practical decisions. Perhaps you’re worried about how far reaching the changes are going to be, and whether you or a loved one can cope. Or you may well be tempted to take a big risk and make a radical change or two, which you might otherwise not have considered. This could be the perfect opportunity to re-invent yourself.
Decide to jump in and live your passion despite, or because of, the gloomy economy.
Follow some dreams you haven’t yet lived.
Develop a new project or business that’s dear to your heart.
Whatever you want to achieve, whether it’s creating more abundance for yourself and your family, taking time to focus on more personal creative projects or to pursue a bigger purpose or service. |
