Teleclass: Dancing in the Moment with Dreams

This past week, a colleague and I led a teleclass for coaches on inviting dream material into coaching.

There is a place for dreamwork in the ICF competencies. Dream material brought by the client into a coaching session can enhance coaching presence and effective communication, specifically by making it easier to:

  1. support client self-expression
  2. be present and flexible during the coaching process
  3. access intuition and trust one's inner knowing
  4. shift perspectives and experiment with new possibilities for action
  5. generate questions that create greater clarity, possibility or new learning
  6. generate powerful questions that evoke discovery, insight, commitment or action

A good deal of the teleclass was spent on ways of working with dreams, plus examples.

I wanted to share here, though, the importance of a coach setting the stage to invite dreams into coaching sessions, by making sure the client knows that his or her dreams are invited, and by making it clear that a coaching session is a safe place to share dreams.

If you would like to hear more about the teleclass, please contact me at suz@dreamcurrent.com.
