My Team of Professional Trainers in Coaching

I began my training as a coach with the Coaches Training Institute at www.thecoaches.com which is accredited by the International Coach Federation. Loved this school and all that it offered me, completing its certification program in 2001.

With The Coaches Training Institute, I also took a year long program in leadership, www.thecoaches.com/leadership which changed my life and the way I coached. It was an experience of a lifetime.

www.awakeningjoy.info is a course founded on Buddhist principles and led by James Baraz.  This course is the source of inspiration for many of the guided meditations that are part of the audio component of The Inner Confidence Workbook.

After coaching for many years, I was called to Arjuna Ardagh’s training at www.awakeningcoachingtraining.com because of its focus on being present.  I knew that mindful presence was an important component of inner confidence. Arjuna Ardagh certified me as an awakening coach in 2010 after an intensive, year long program, and I have gratefully added these powerful tools to my repertoire.

Visit www.thework.com to learn more about a powerful and simple process of inquiry created by Bryon Katie that shifts the stories we tell ourselves. I have been blessed to work one-on-one with Jill Fox who has been highly trained by Byron Katie, and I now integrate inquiry into what I offer my own clients.

Marlena Field is the founder of Body-Centered Coaching and can be found at www.bodymindspiritcoaching.com.  I have trained with Marlena and am in the process of deepening this training so that I will be certified to teach this powerful method to other practitioners.
