This Coaching Companion is on the theme of being at ease. This might seem a strange theme in the current climate of uncertainty and fear in December 2021. Yet in a way, we do need to accept external pressures, and our responses to these, before we can care for ourselves and others in an empowered way, not driven by threat and anxiety. The paradox is that being at ease isn’t always easy, and yet it can’t be achieved through struggle. It requires positive thinking and positive action to release us from the stress or overwhelm that cause us discomfort and dis-ease. It is achieved through acceptance of ourselves, warts and all, and acceptance of what we cannot change in the external world. In this Coaching Companion we explore some different ways of being at ease.
