The Dragonfly
When my son was born I looked for a symbolic piece of jewellery to mark this wonderful event, and came across the dragonfly. The dragonfly is a thing of such beauty and its incredible lifecycle is widely recognised as the symbol for change and new beginnings, for transformation, adaptability and self realization. And for joy. A newborn baby certainly inspired all of that! The ephemeral dragonfly also exudes light and joy with its iridescence, its lacy wings and fairly-like flying escapades. It's also at home by quiet water. What's not to love? It was perfect.
I have carried this with me, its relevance remaining strong and ever more current. To me it now embodies even more - the world after Covid, and life coaching. We are like the dragonfly, dormant and awaiting the moment we become conscious and wake up to our truth - who we truly are and what we truly want out of life. The coach is the facilitator to help you on your personal journey, to emerge and grow, to change and transform, being set free to fly and dance and have fun, living and loving your very best life.
Dragonflies have been around for some 300 million years. Mind boggling. They are true survivors. They have near 360 degree vision so can see pretty much all round themselves. Except directly behind interestingly - even evolution has demonstrated there's no value in looking back! Coaching and NLP give you dragonfly vision - to open up your eyes and see yourself and the world around you beyond your current limitations. I invite you to be more dragonfly...
