Dear friend
I've had a run of people this week saying how much they like reading Little White Feather - and so I've made space this afternoon to get this out before the weekend. There's been a lot going on here and sometimes it's easy to forget to let you folk know about it!
I've been putting the finishing touches on my first novel - which I wrote when I was 20, but which has been sitting in a box under the bed ever since! An inspirational tale of how one young man, lost along life's highways and byways, finds himself - and his lifetime love - through learning to drive,
Learning to Live: Because No-One Gives you a Rulebook for the Game Called Life (working title) will be out on Kindle sometime in the spring - and paperback at a later date. Intrigued? Let me know and I'll be sure to give you a nudge when it comes out!
What else? Well, as I write this, the co-counsellors among you will (I hope) be excited to know that we still have six snap-uppable places left on our first online taster,
3 Ways to Revive a Flagging Passion for Co-counselling and Rediscover Why you Fell in Love with it in the First Place next Thursday (7-8 pm UK time). The taster equips you to join our 2-month online refresher programme (for co-coers only, again, I'm afraid - see below), which runs Jan-Feb next year. Contact us to find out more (first five Little White Feather readers to sign up get a free copy of my e-book,
Co-Counselling: Become Your Own Life Coach in 40 Hours, or if you've already read it, then another non-fiction e-book from the Tonya G. Stewart collection!
Looking forward to seeing you at one of our forthcoming events - in-person or in sacred cyberspace!

WANT TO CHANGE THE WORLD? CHANGE YOUR CONSCIOUSNESS!
I've witnessed a lot of finger-pointing recently. You know, the kind of situation where one person, unwilling to face up to his own part in creating a particular situation, blames life/ 'the universe', the government, whoever for what is going on.
It often stems, it would seem to me, from the person feeling vulnerable about - or powerless to change - something in her life - that she can't 'control' things around her. And it can be because of something she feels powerless to change - like climate change, a certain US president, or, for those in the UK, Brexit, for example (and often the key, here, is to realise it's OK to be vulnerable... it's actually OK to not be 'in control', ie, to 'feel the feeling' and allow it to process through... and expand). Just as often, however, it stems from something that she could perhaps change, would she just stop 'projecting it outwards', ie, onto...

DO YOU ALLOW YOURSELF TO FULLY FEEL...?
I'm having a run of transformational coaching clients who seem well-practised in the art of what we might call 'emotional numbing'. Because events in their past have been experienced as 'too traumatic' to truly feel, they have learnt to suppress authentic emotion. And this response has, over time become so instantaneous - especially around key 'karmic' issues in their lives - that they find it hard to access the emotion at all.
All very well, you might think - who needs emotion, anyway? Well, I would actually say that, at a certain point on our path, emotion - and the ability to feel it authentically and wholly - holds the key to our unfolding - or, if not the key, then at least an important access point.
Now, coaching clients who come to me tend to be on a path of what we might call conscious evolution, anyway, and are usually ready and willing to change. But those with this particular pattern, even though they want to change, often find it hard to unlock the door to feeling the authentic emotion again.
