Jean, a lady in her 40s, began attending a small Heart Circle group in person. After a while she had individual coaching sessions alongside a facilitated two-person Heart Circle group. Here is her experience..

 

"I consider myself to be very lucky to have been in a Heart Circle with Amanda.  Our group met weekly for a number of weeks in order to build a rapport, gradually revealing more of ourselves in a trusting environment...

Heart Circle has been a marvelous experience for me and I have learnt a lot from Amanda.  For many years I have been very proud of some insights that I have had,  for instance, that I should pack up problems and let them fly away; however since Heart Circle I have realised that it is possible to look at these problems in a secure setting and with helpful guidance from Amanda.  It has been (and continues to be) a journey for me into past experiences which still impact on me now.  It sounds cliched to say that I have had to confront my childhood self but this has happened in an extraordinary way, slowly, almost methodically peeling away layers of feelings that have been protecting me until the time was right to deal with them.  I found that I was being symbolically choked by experiences in my childhood, at times of stress I would be unable to speak properly, this situation has disappeared and I feel amazed and extremely grateful."
