This comes straight off the back of a 1:1 client coaching session where we explored the nuanced difference between feeling numb and making an embodied decision. Using this real life example of a client who has recently handed in their resignation, this delves into the emotional journey of leaving a job, understanding intuitive choices, and navigating life transitions with authenticity and courage.

Key Highlights:

  • The difference between numbness and grounded decision-making
  • How to recognise an embodied decision
  • Strategies for aligning career choices with personal values
  • The importance of emotional work during life transitions

Takeaways:

  • Trust your intuition during major life changes
  • Communicate your needs clearly
  • Align decisions with your personal vision and values
  • Give yourself space to process transitions

The Art Of Listening To Your Body

My name is Dr. Jin Ong I’m a cathartic release therapist, professionally trained as an osteopath, psychosomatic therapist, western acupuncturist and herbalist.

I’m fascinated by the mind-body connection and how your physical body is a manifestation of your emotional state.

My aim is to create awareness to the underlying emotions behind pain, injury and disease in the body as well as behvioural dysfunctions and mental imbalances. I do this using a unique blend of eastern and western philosophies and a good dose of intuition.

I love reading the body and what it's really trying to tell us through it's physical presentation, injury, pain or illness. I call it the art of listening to your body. It's all about understanding yourself and others on a deeper level.

I guide people to recognise their purpose in the world by bringing light to the issues that hold them back. I do this through an intuitive understanding of how the body speaks to us and help clients develop their emotional awareness and take actionable steps to achieve their goals.

If you want to learn to tap into your innate intuitive sense in an easy to understand way come and join me.

Pain stories are fascinating and there is so much we can learn from them. Join me as I'm joined by inspirational people who share how their life changed after their painful experience- what they had to surrender to and how their life looks now.
