You may have heard me speak about this, or maybe you’ve read one of my articles about it… Life work balance.

More so a few years ago, but there was a time fairly recently that this was a buzz term – “you need to create life work balance”… even now, some of my clients come to me and say “I just need more life work balance”. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out which way their scale is leaning – people don’t often say to me something like “you know Heidi, I think I’m living too much, I really need to work more”.

Now, here is what I think of “life work balance” – I think it’s a croc… we don’t need life work balance, we need balance – just balance.

You may know that in April we brought Dr. Stephen Gilligan to Sydney from the USA for Trance Camp. Steve teaches a form of Generative Trancework that is based on Milton Erickson’s hypnotic work. Steve was a student for many years of Erickson’s and is probably the best Ericksonian Hypnotherapist around.

Anyway – one of the main tools that is taught and mastered by many in Trance Camp is Centering. That is, finding and connecting with your Center.

We each have our own way to center, our own way of grounding ourselves and coming “home” to ourselves. When you are in your center – nothing can push you, move you, manipulate or hurt you. This perhaps is another way of saying “congruent”.
