Do you sabotage yourself? Is there something you really need to get done but you just don’t do it? Are there parts of your life that stay stuck no matter how hard you try?

About the Course

I want to write. Why can’t I write?

I had a writer’s block. I wanted to write. I knew that writing books was my life purpose, and until I could do it, I wouldn’t move forward. Writing was either very difficult or impossible. I would not write anything else. I would stare at the screen for hours with my head stuck in it.

I tried everything, including writer’s workshops, writing partners, free writing, and writing at night. Nothing worked.

I did something I had never done before. I used a focusing process to get to know a part of me that didn’t want to write. The process that emerged taught me a lot about change and forward movement. I am the author of four books, two manuals, numerous articles, and writing is as easy, flowing, and fun as I always knew it should be.

I have learned by working with hundreds of people that this same process can work for any stuck place in life, even if you don’t want to do it. If you have an action block, I would love to show you the process in my upcoming course.

You will learn a series of moves designed to release the dynamic that holds the action block in place.

Learning how to listen non-judgmentally to the action block is part of transforming the inner critic.

When the part of you that doesn’t want to do the action is heard compassionately, the blocked flow gets moving again, often in surprising ways. You can find gifts in surprising places. What you thought you wanted was merely a compromise solution, and what you can really have is much bigger.

You will receive a workbook containing all the exercises that we will do, so that you can repeat them whenever you need to, with any blocked area of your life. You will be in the course with other people who are dealing with the same issues.

Is the phone course the same as the Releasing Blocks to Action CD Set? The material in this course is the same as on the CD set. I have not taught this course live since 2009, and I decided to offer it again because I find this process so exciting, so potentially life-changing, and I know that some people would like to work with me directly instead of just listening to the CD set.
