Bringing Bodies into the Coaching Conversation: A Gestalt Perspective

Hosted by APECS.

This session will discuss how our clients bring their whole bodies into their coaching sessions and so do we, carrying sensation, feeling and thoughts as valuable data.

In this 90-minute webinar, we will explore how to work with the whole body in the coaching room. We will consider what becomes possible when we move from talking about experience to being more fully in it.

With Gestalt theory and practice as a frame, we will look at ways to bring embodied data ethically and skilfully into the room.

• Working with what’s present, not just what’s said.
• Body data: sensations, feelings, impulses, posture, movement.
• Interventions that raise somatic awareness.
• Body boundaries – what is OK in a coaching space?
• Peer learning – time for us to share wisdom from our own practices.
