IKIGAI
The word "iki" meaning life and "kai" meaning the realisation of hopes and expectations
According to Japanese culture, everyone has an IKIGAI. Finding it often requires a deep understanding
"Search for yourself". A quest that is held in high esteem.
Discovering your IKIGAI and finding activities that bring you into the flow requires self-reflection, exploration, and experimentation. Here are the steps we take:
1. Reflect on Your Passions: Consider what activities bring you joy and fulfillment. Reflect on your interests, hobbies, and things that make you come alive. These can provide valuable clues about what you love.
2. Assess Your Skills: Identify your strengths, talents, and skills. What are you good at naturally? These skills can provide a foundation for experiences of flow and mastery.
3. Determine What the World Needs: Explore how you can contribute to the world and make a positive impact. Consider the needs and challenges around you. What can you offer that brings value to others?
4. Find Overlapping Areas: Look for areas of overlap among your passions, skills, and the needs of the world. This is where you can find activities that align with your ikigai and have the potential for flow experiences.
5. Experiment and Reflect: Try different activities and pay attention to how they make you feel. Notice where you feel a sense of engagement, enjoyment, and natural abilities coming together. Reflect on these experiences and consider how they align with your IKIGAI.
and so on....
Remember that discovering your IKIGAI and experiencing flow is an ongoing process. It may require exploration, trial and error, and adapting to changing circumstances. Allow yourself the freedom to explore and evolve as you align your activities with your passions, skills, and the needs of the world. Embrace the journey of discovering your IKIGAI and living a meaningful, purposeful life filled with flow.

This journey is divided up into 6 Phases
PHASE 1
We work with the Coaching Tool "Points of You" - so expect the unexpected because every little thing in life has countless Points of View. The real challenge is to look at your life from a new viewpoint, one that was previously out of your sight - that’s where change can start happening.
PHASE 2 & 3
Time to take the next step & see what can be implemented & what is stopping you from taking certain steps. Learn how to deal with limiting beliefs & practice how to forgive and let go so that the past does not hold you prisoner. What do you need in your life so that you can step out of your comfort zone.
PHASE 4 & 5
Life is challenging us and self-compassion is the key. Learn how to connect to your inner-self and unleash your inner power so you can apply your personal tools when negative feeling show up. Regulate your emotions so that you have the strength to go forward and do things you have never done before .
PHASE 6
With the vision map you stay on course and with manifestation you learn how to reach your goal. When things go wrong, or you get stuck, change the direction and move on. Mistakes can be opportunities, learn from them. Lasting changes come only from our own efforts.
During this journey we use different tools and techniques
Breathing - Grounding - Journaling - Meditation - Ho'oponopono - Mindfulness - Manifestation

NEVER FORGET!
you are the most important person in your life
and if things go sideways then...
STOP!
When the negative stress, the total exhaustion and the daily challenges overwhelm you, or when you no longer see any meaning in your life because your everyday life feels like you are caught in a hamster wheel.
SHORT TIME-OUT!
Take a moment, sit down somewhere you like it, and where nobody wants anything from you.
All you need is 30 minutes, paper and pen and your mobile phone on silent.
BREATHE!
Inhale deeply through your nose (count to 4) - hold your breath (count to 4) exhale through your mouth (count to 4)
and hold your breath (count to 4) = repeat 4x.
Try not to think about anything, just focus on breathing and how it feels in your body.
Reflect & Note!
Get your thoughts out of your head and onto paper.
What's going on in your life right now you don't like?
How long has it been like this?
Do you want to change something but you don't even know where to start?
How does your body feel?
What do you want to let go off, and what do you wish to change if you could?
BRAVO:
You have already taken the first step!
