What you seek, is seeking you...
March is here with spring vibes and for me it has more vibes…
It is the month where I deliver “Mindfulness March” workshops at my part-time corporate job 😀.
What is Mindfulness March?
I am running a series of four 60-minute sessions to support mindfulness across different areas of our life, especially as we are now working more and more from home and managing the pressures of lockdown.
Each session focuses on a different topic to help employees to manage their thoughts, feelings and mental wellbeing to promote a better work/life balance.
The best news for me is: I am the sole content creator of the material, meaning it represents what I believe, and advocate on self-healing over the years in my private business 🙏🏻
The sessions provide learning opportunities with practical resources and take students on a step by step approach to create their own unique roadmap for each topic.
One of the objectives of the workshops was to provide practical advice and tips that employees can apply on a day-to-day basis to improve their lives and overall wellbeing especially while working from home.
I am running 4 workshops throughout the month of March on the topics below
I have hand-picked these topics based on both my own struggles while working in a competitive and demanding corporate career, and because of common patterns I see with my corporate clients.
How to break the cycle of procrastination when you are working from home during lock down
How to keep the vibrations HIGH in these times of uncertainty and create a healthy routine that does not cause pressure during lock down
Understand the main physical discomfort experienced by corporate employees: Neck & Shoulder Pain, The reasons why this happens & Holistic Healing Techniques.
Growing your Relationships in order to lead a freer existence
Why it is important to me
I have been working on shifting my mindset on SURRENDER and TRUST for years and after seeing the results I was able to achieve on myself, I was able to help others to shift their mindset.
The divine dance between taking action and surrendering to the universe with complete trust amazes me, gives me inspiration, and gives me purpose. I want to share this story to show what is possible…I hope it gives you the spark to work on taking the first step with intuitive actions and surrendering to divine timing.
Back in the last quarter of 2020 during the cold and dark winter days I was honoured to work with two amazing leadership coaches, who have been coaching various companies and governments all around the world and teaching individuals how to become certified coaches. I took my coaching training from both of them and they both inspired me. Two strong women, from different parts of the worlds, different backgrounds, nationalities and religions, who do not know each other.
Late last year, they separately reached out to me around same time! and hired me for my healing and spiritual practice.
As Rumi says “What you seek is seeking you” …We started to work on their healing journey and sometimes we talked about how nice it would be if the corporate world would start encouraging real mindfulness or healing practices (I am not talking about “prioritising your busy day” or “take 5 min breaks to stretch” style workshops. Usually you end up saying “I know how to prioritise my day if you give me less tasks 😉 I am talking about real proven techniques that busy executives can really adopt)
We started debating on how to bring those practices into life, without getting too deep into spiritual topics. I am also aware of the fact that my in person sessions are very deep with lots of tears and often require full privacy, which is not possible when you have group workshops.
However, we were discussing bringing the basics. Many basic concepts of the healing path are suitable for anyone to practice at home. And those two ladies both encouraged me to start writing the content for corporate workshops based on our ideas.
So I started writing the modules for a future partnership with leadership coaches; not linking it at all with my corporate part time job.
I created the procrastination webinar and shared it with this beautiful newsletter community in December and the amazing feedback motivated me to work on the rest.
During the New Year break, I started creating the rest of the modules.
Around February, my manger reached out to me if I was interested running workshops around Mindfulness, related to my healing business. I told him, I would love to run my own content and sent him the titles that I shared above, he shared with management and it got approved!!! 🤩
It gave me the opportunity to run the modules before working with other corporates in a place where I know and lived in the culture. Serendipity, divine timing, law of attraction or reward of action taking or luck…Say whatever you believe…
With Love,
Gül
