The Unitive® coaching approach facilitates the attainment of a lasting
stage of problem-free non-duality, in which you become totally aware of
your own uniqueness and, at the same time, remain completely in touch
with the reality of the presenting world. It uses an entirely non-directive,
one-to-one tutorial format, to establish a creative co-operation between
yourself and your coach. It works by encouraging the development of
your innate self-awareness and uniquely personal mode of expression.
Instead of asking set questions aimed at some preconceived ‘solution’ or
imagined ‘goal’, the Unitive® process acts as a mirror, reflecting your
potential power and innate authenticity back to its source. In this way,
you are enabled to provide solutions to your present problems. By
realising new and lasting insights into your own internal process, you
make the necessary changes you will need to transform the way in which
you live your life.

analysis; of understanding and responding to things through the intellect
- through the head, so to speak. Thinking is what's going on in your mind.
We all have voices in our head, and these voices help to make sense of
our world through rational analysis. Thinking, that is, connecting ideas in
order to arrive at a general understanding, is the foundation upon which
the cognitive and behavioural approaches have been built. What these
have in what in common is the assumption that intellect is superior to,
and therefore capable of mastering, the feeling function. But the fact
