I am excited to share that I am going to Stockholm in the end of August to present my body-centered coaching work in Swedish! My presentation at the ICF Stockholm on September 4, 2018, is called ‘Nå förbi begränsande tankemönster/Moving beyond limiting associations’ and is based on Marlena Field’s Body-Centered Coaching Method. I am looking forward to my presentation and to meeting some of you in my Swedish community while there!
Another way of ‘meeting’ with my Swedish community will be through my teaching of Marlena Fields brilliant Body-Centered Coaching Method in Swedish, not just in English. I am in the translation process right now and at times it’s challenging to find the right Swedish words. In a way, my first coaching language is English as I have done all of my coach training in English, but my mother tongue is Swedish – my language of expressing feelings and emotions. Anyhow, I welcome the challenge and find the translation into my ’emotional language’ very rewarding. Also, I love how it will enable me to share the Body-Centered Coaching Method even further with the world!
Save the date; March 28 – 31, 2019! If you are an ICF Coach as I am, and a member of an ICF Texas Chapter, you dont want to miss next years All Texas ICF Conference&Retreat. Taking part in the retreat is a great way to dive deep, connect and learn from other coaches. Great conversations, ICF accredited learning, and time in nature around the beautiful Lake Buchanan – all in a great combination. I enjoyed this years event so much that I am part of next years planning committee. I hope to see some of you at the conference/retreat in 2019!
Further, I enjoyed The Buchanan Lake area so much that I am taking my family there hiking next week – as much as the hot Texas weather permits! I am looking forward to stepping away from my regular routine and to allow time for just being. Also, to spend time in nature, which is my favorite way to reconnect with myself as a whole being of body, mind and spirit. Giving my brain a break with time away from work, will leave it more motivated and productive upon returning to my office.
Love and presence,
Nina
