Since working with David, I’ve deepened my experience of my true self and been able to let more of my ego self fall away. David’s approach has strengthened my trust in my own intuition and my sense of joy, and I’ve developed greater courage to let go, and to live and play with ambiguity and the unknown. I deeply appreciate the strong yet gentle way that David has encouraged, guided and challenged me to carve out my own path in my career, to deepen my commitment to my life partner, and to relish the joy my small daughter brings me. I now have a much greater daily awareness of my patterns of thoughts, feelings and re-actions…and I feel more in tune with my own flow and the flow of life. Thanks David!

Since I started my sessions with you I have noticed such a huge positive shift in my outlook on life… and so have my family and friends.
I am now happier, more decisive and so much more confident. I now live my life following by gut feel instead of what I think is right/wrong as viewed from other people because as I have learnt… ‘I am independent of the good opinion of others’ and coming from a Lebanese background this is a huge hurdle to overcome. I can now make a decision (small or large) and confidently know that no matter what happens I will be alright and can get through anything… and I also make these decisions so much quicker because like you say ‘whatever I resist persists’.
I can honestly say that you have helped me find the beauty in being ME and to truly believe that I am good enough… and I couldn’t be more grateful.

I began my coaching sessions with David at a time when I was hoping to embark on some major changes in my life. Over the course of the six months that I was coached I came to see certain behaviours and beliefs that were holding me back from having a truly satisfying life. A more creative and empowered life became more appealing than a reactive and timid one.
I slowly began to see changes occurring. David’s supportive, challenging, highly insightful and intuitive approach was extremely helpful on my journey towards realising the vision of the person that I could be and the life that I could create.
I am pleased to say that one of my major life goals to start a family is now on the way to being realised. I have also created a satisfying new job. My relationship with my partner is growing and developing like never before.
Being coached by David was one of the most rewarding personal growth journeys that I have embarked on.

Do you yearn to live a life of substance? Are you up for what it takes to undertake that journey? Its often overlooked in our world of quick fix’s and instant solutions that the journey of remembering who you are is literally that, a journey and not about the destination.
But if you choose to experience a life of substance, one where you don’t get bent all out of shape by your changing circumstances and emotions that come with them, expect to have challenge, after all you are choosing to experience the unlimited nature of who you are, not the mediocre you. Slowly but surely, with patience, as you stay committed to your process, your life transforms and starts to reflect your new choices.
I wanted to connect and share with you an insight I have had recently through my clients and also generally in my friendships and beyond. And that is that everyone seems to be waiting and hoping that soon there will be some space and time to just relax. That there will be time to stop and integrate what has been happening in their lives and things around them wont feel so hectic or rushed. I personally have felt it too, the relentless amount of ‘stuff’ that just keeps on coming to be dealt with or responded to and in double… (scrap that…quadruple time!)
It wasn’t until this week that my awareness came in and saw the pattern and could see what was really going on for myself and others around me. The truth is that IT WILL NEVER SLOW DOWN! There! its said. The unimaginable truth is out. We will not experience our lives getting simpler, nor will there be that utopian time and space that exists in our head where you will ‘catch up’ or ‘make sense’ or ‘get over’ anything. It is actually part of the problem to be habitually looking into the future for our salvation. The ‘when I… then I…’ syndrome is such a part of our way of looking at life and all it results in is a feeling of never getting there, never truly feeling satisfied and living life like a hamster on a wheel. Feel familiar?
So what is the real truth which is laying there to be embraced I hear you ask…(well some of you at least!) Well, first of all you must learn to accept that truth, that it will never slow down and drop the idea that your one or two week holiday will be enough to recharge you. In fact if you look at the findings of the Mayan calendar and how it describes the acceleration in consciousness which is occurring moment by moment to us all, it is only going to feel more challenging as we move forward into 2012.
Secondly, get present to what you are feeling! Understand that the reason why we fill our lives up with so much stuff is to avoid feelings, more especially to numb the uncomfortable ones but what we don’t realise that we cant selectively numb our feelings. When we numb one, we numb them all. So when we numb sadness, we also numb the ability to feel happy. Do whatever you can to learn about truth and who you really are. Commit to that and learn to drop into a place in you that is always aware, calm and able to deal with anything life has to offer. Do whatever it takes to shed limited ideas and stories and beliefs about yourself as you simply wont have the time and space for them if you choose to be connected to the longing to expand and evolve.
Thirdly, know that you will not need to be doing it alone and that you will require unconditional love and support as you learn new ways of being in life. And remember, shedding or letting go of anything can be challenging in your head but your body always FEELS lighter and it leaves room for something fresh.
