Bodymind Coaching Stroud and Bristol with Lisa Ford

Come home to the Body

As a body oriented coach trained in polyvagal theory, I can work in partnership with you to find new ways of being in the world, being with others, and being with yourself. By using the body in coaching, there is potential to experience more than is already known by accessing the Bodymind wisdom and breaking through old stories, frozen beliefs and stuck patterns of behaviour.

Through impactful somatic, embodied practices, visioning, movement and breath awareness you can reconnect with the whole of you by experiencing yourself just as you are in this present moment which can be the doorway to real and lasting change and is a pathway to realising alignment between all parts of ourselves, to an integrated whole, where the thinking mind is involved but does not dominate.

We can explore, accept and deeply connect with your authenticity, creativity, momentum, energy and organic intelligence and knowing to embody what you long for, your ideal, your vision. This process can allow you to awaken to the untapped potential your body holds for living a more fulfilling, compassionate and wise life.

I am very fortunate to be working in a field that I love and feel passionate about and I would welcome the opportunity to connect and explore the possibilities ahead for you.

The Best Coaching and Healing

I dearly appreciated the way Lisa was able to facilitate the session according to my current need and moment in time, she holds the space in an intuitive, graceful and very attentive manner, which always made me feel heard, seen and understood in a profound way. She helped me illuminate certain aspects of the process that without her guidance wouldn’t have been able to be seen and processed’.
