It was official. I now was the sole owner of Embodied Healing Counselling Services. It had been quite a journey to get to this point and my whole body felt alive with the passion and confidence to begin private practice.<\/p>\n<p>That was two months ago; now, as I sit reflecting on the last two months, I am noticing a heaviness in my body that was not there at the beginning.<\/p>\n<p>Everyone says that starting a business is hard; a lot of ground work and little payoff at the beginning. It is one thing to be aware of that, another to experience it. I have devoted hours to design, vision, marketing; a whole new world to a therapist. I seemed to take exciting steps forward to only be slammed with another setback. The setbacks weighed on me, the uncertainty stirred up anxiety. The focus soon became the lack of progress, clients and money.<\/p>\n<p>I lost focus of my vision.<a href=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/sapling-154734_640.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-4133\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/sapling-154734_640-300x180.png\" alt=\"sapling-154734_640\" width=\"300\" height=\"180\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>And yet, as I sit with this heaviness, I sense an invitation to look at the bigger picture. I am slowing down and I am reminded of all the doors that have opened for me and the valuable connections and opportunities I have had. The list could go on and on of the support from unexpected places, exciting opportunities and a growing web of network with amazing professionals.<br \/>\nAnd now, I have an embodied understanding of the initial step of building a private practice; to build a solid foundation.<\/p>\n<p>So, in this spring season, as we await the blooms to emerge, I will continue to plant seeds in my community. With a deeper understanding of patience and an embodied vision, I will trust that I am right where I am to be in this season of my private practice. I notice this knowing brings a sense of relief and lightness throughout my body; releasing the heaviness of pressure.<\/p>\n<p>The season of harvest will come.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Full of anticipation and excitement, I clicked the submit button to register my business.
