Transition and change are what life is all about. Your life will be all-change, all of the time. You’ll not notice most transitions such as ageing, time of day, the wear of clothes; whilst some will smack you in the face by their very suddenness and their effects will ripple throughout your life.

Your life has three constants:

Breathing – when you exchange oxygen for carbon dioxide, it’s very simple, you’re alive with resources to deal with the world. Conscious and appreciative breathing is a simple act that brings so much benefit

Thinking – if you’re alive, you’re thinking, mostly subconsciously. How you feel follows how you think: feeling angry? You’re having angry thoughts. Feeling happy? You’re having happy thoughts. Your thinking creates your reality. Your ability to think is powerful. It can be used to build and create wonder or breakdown and destroy life…

Problems (transitions*) – sometimes, a split-second is all it takes for change to happen. Large or small, transitions arrive stealthily, blatantly and change so much, so quickly, leaving you with the fallout.

How you can re-gain your life

Simple fact: Your life is full of transitions.

Some will be joyous – you finding love, having children, sharing victories and achieving goals. Sad irony: positive changes can be hard for you to deal with (ask newlyweds or massive lottery winners).

Others will be traumatic – you’re rejected, made redundant, become bereaved or experience a sudden illness affecting yourself or your loved ones.

Focusing on the traumatic:

sudden changes include – health, bereavement, a relationship ending, losing a job, a terrible diagnosis

gradual changes include – the end of an era, the end of a life, a slow fade away of what was known.

Each transition is: what you knew to be certain of has disappeared like a puff of smoke in a breeze.

Being aware of single or cumulative transitions may prove too difficult to deal with and force you to re-evaluate your life. The details of the transitions you face are unique to you; the problem is always about how you feel and how you deal with them.

You gaining clarity on how you relate to your world is powerful. That’s what Transitions Mentoring is all about.

Transitions Mentoring:

the Re-Gain Your Life Service

In Practice

Not every person who is challenged emotionally requires reassurance, care, support and considered kindness; if you do, however, transitions mentoring will empower you towards clarity.

Your mentor will aid you through your process. Together with a combination of tools, questions and exploration, you’ll get greater clarity to deal with whatever challenges you and your world.

I was part of a virtual boardroom with Benn and his contributions to all our problems were extremely insightful, often cutting through all the c**p and revealing a simple thought or concept we hadn’t even considered.

He doesn’t babble, just asks very specific and caring questions. A rare skill. Thank you for making me think differently.

Midlife

Midlife, from 35 – 65, is a pincer time. You become aware of your aging and mortality; and the complexities of aging parents, children, relationships and dying, death and grief.

By midlife, you’re expected to have the answers to everything life throws your way. However, your emotions, your sense of sanity and your ability to cope are hindered by your losses and heartbreaks.

A Solution:

End of Life & Living Funerals

Each experience of end of life is totally individual, independent and unique. For those hale in mind, yet frail of body, this can provide an ideal opportunity to celebrate with your loved ones. To lift a glass and to laugh, cry, reminisce, touch, hug, to have one last dance.

A Solution:

Living funerals or “awake wakes” are special, well-held spaces for you to be in the company of friends and family, making memories; sharing love and remembering the beauty of life, even as life is fading.

Dealing with Death

The one thing we know for sure at death is that the person we knew is no more. And, it’s losing that personality that makes for such a difficult time. We can no longer love them the way we did; their hands are cold, their heart no longer beats. There is silence where once there was vibrant energy.

With death comes taboos – don’t discuss it; it may be contagious; ignore it; fear it; don’t acknowledge it, that way death can’t overwhelm you.

The old customs encourage not talking about the painful, frightening things of life, and there are no rules of how you “should” deal with your feelings and pain, though many people may tell you how to, ought or should fix your mind, thoughts and feelings.

How would you like to feel? Liberated, released from the darkness of the pain?

A Solution:
Regain perspective of your life by airing what you’re thinking and feeling with a person detached from the rest of your world. From this, you can release emotions bottled up, whilst you feel cared and safe.
