The Healing Magic of Improvisation & Playfulness in Therapeutic Coaching with Yoky Yu
Welcome to our monthly global - Members Only - Coaching Circle session!
As always, we‘ll kick off this session with a mindful check-in led by Francesco. This will help us settle in and connect with ourselves. Then, we'll extend a warm welcome to our newest Coaches with Impact members.
Following that, Yoky will lead us into the heart of the session with a brief meditation, breathing exercise, or somatic practice. This will ground us in the present moment. After, Francesco will share the latest news and updates about our community.
Next up, we'll dive into our learning experience: a playful, 60-minute workshop.
This month, it’s Yoky who will guide and explore with us how our inner playfulness and a sense of joyful spontaneity can help us reboot any coaching session that otherwise might feel stuck. A starting point is to check with ourselves: are we as coaches and facilitators enjoying the session wholeheartedly?
We’ll learn to sense when we’re holding back our own spontaneity and trust to get out of this loop and reconnect to ourselves and our clients at the same time. As a therapist, coach and creator of experimental standup comedy shows, Yoky will focus on the elements of growth, integration, change, and yes: healing, while still drizzling a tad of magic powered by a sense of play over it.
The session will include exercises designed to ignite that magic, integrate somatic resources, and translate them into gazes and tools that you can bring to your next session, including an opportunity for Q&A.
We'll close our global meeting with a quick check-out, smiles, and warm goodbyes.
