The 4P Strategy from Canalside Life Coach

Find out how to easily enhance your everyday - use my 4P strategy

These stand for Pause, Protect, Pivot and Project - from my 4P Framework - and can be used for

๐Ÿ”ท a longer, more reflective period in your life when dealing with big shifts in your identity and purpose - these are often called Life Transitions

๐Ÿ”ท and also for any immediate challenge in your everyday life, once you are comfortable with the technique.

I devised and used this when dealing with changing jobs in different areas and types of employer, moving house across countries, coping with debilitating chronic pain, family relationship challenges, bereavements and ageing....these are just the labels we can use, however, each of us knows when our old self doesn't quite fit the new cisrcumstances we find ourselves in.

I decided to write an Ebook to pin down what worked for me and pass on to others who might benefit.

I called my Ebook DIY Life Coaching with the 4P Framework, you can read more about it HERE where there is a link to a FREE sample.

DO you recognise yourself in this specially written summary of the first P for Pause?

You know something feels off, whether a remark in an office and you feel compromised, or you are so tired you have not time or space for anything you like to do...

NOW is the moment to stop, take a breath and slow it all down.

In an immediate situation, find somewhere to have space and a few minutes deep breathing, this helps your focus.

When navigating a bigger issue, the Pause can be any length of time as a whole - or give yourself blocks of time within a week. If you're very stressed, perhaps consider some proper time out, whatever options you have for that. Some find a long walk in countryside or beside a river or the sea really helps - nature calms your nervous system and can provide a reset.

We have been trained into thinking that a "holiday" will resolve this - that depends on the balancing act of organising it, paying for it, the travel demands, who you are with...will it really relax you?

Can you find a way to build reset moments every day, alongside de-stressing activities every week?

Movement releases tension, music is a powerful and pleasant, watch a film or video, see your friends, listen to a podcast, meditate, enjoy making something, spend time outside in a green space or beside flowing water, read a book, walk the dog, play with or just be with the kids, walk round a gallery or musem, visit a castle or historic site, drive or take a train or bus somewhere you've never been!

You are training your body and mind to relax and know you are taking care of you - sometimes this takes a mindshift as we may have put others' needs ahead of our own, however, if you are not functioning in a healthy and sustainanble way, you can find burnout happening without realising.

In my Ebook you can work through activities and adapt to your unique situation...truly embrace your personal growth at your own pace
