Just spending time with our little furball combing his long coat every other day makes me feel peaceful. A little moment every now and then writing my thoughts down feels peaceful Spending time alone witnessing the stillness of the breath or practicing Qi Gong in the garden with green trees for company makes me feel peaceful.
Meditative moments especially at home in front a Buddha statue makes me feel peaceful.
Painting and dancing without an agenda, on my own, whenever I wish to, makes me feel peaceful.
But most of all… Living in the now, without too many expectations makes me peaceful ✌️

As a coach being empathic & encouraging while being flexible and adaptable as you adjust strategies for the way forward aids and facilitates progress.
