Testimonial by trainees:

This Stage I of the Holisticharmony Coach Training course has been a phenomenal introductory way to investigate myself. It is gentle and non-intrusive in that I do the reading and respond to exercises at my own pace yet the result of participating has liberated me from HUGE traumatic experiences. The gentle nudge from the coordinators and the wise words of encouragement have helped me to go beyond spaces that I always felt I would never manage to access and heal. I am in a very liberated frame of being, thanks to this gift. Thank You Robert and your team of helpers for the work that you do with such devotion and deep love. Surely the cyberspace has had some awesome benefit if one considers that this course is delivered so effectively online and produces such REAL and TANGIBLE results in my life. I am glad that I listened to my inner voice that urged me to join this course.

When I signed up for the LIfe coaching course, I saw it as a course to refresh counselling qualifications gained in the 1990s and as a step towards working as a counsellor. When I finished the course, I saw it as a personal journey that made me confront some of my own deep-seated fears and commit to ongoing change in these areas. Perhaps more importantly, I began to appreciate what I already have that makes me uniquely 'me'. The in-depth knowledge gained about how beliefs originate and influence emotions and actions was more in-depth than any practical training I had received in previous counsellor training. As a result, I am now more confident about gradually moving into working as a life coach. I would recommend this course to anyone wishing to embark on an inquiry into themselves as the basis for developing new directions in their life.

Your Bananas

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000

From the book "Contemporary Parables"
by Robert Elias Najemy

Here is how they catch monkeys in India and South America. They tie a narrow neck bottle to a tree. In the bottle they place a banana. The monkey passes by, perceives the banana and very smartly manages to squeeze his hand into the bottle and slips his fingers around the banana in the larger inner area of the bottle.

Now it tries to pull its hand out in order to eat the banana, but it won't come out because its hand, which is now holding the banana and is in the form of a fist, cannot pass through the neck of the bottle. It pulls and pulls, but cannot get its hand out. It sees the trapper approaching it and tries to get away, but cannot, because its hand is wrapped around the banana and thus unable to be removed from the bottle.

Although it is obviously going to suffer under the hands of trapper, and although the bottle and the banana are the cause of its demise, it never thinks of letting go of the banana so that it can extract its hand and be free. It is literally attached to the banana, and the banana, which was previously a potential source of happiness, has become a source of his suffering.

We are all like those monkeys. We have a variety of "bananas" in our lives to which we are attached, and although they create much suffering for us, we cannot let go of them. Some are physical or material attachments such as cigarettes, coffee, tranquilizers, alcohol, denatured foods, money or material possessions. Not that these are inherently bad, but they might be in some cases ruining our health or happiness. And, although we are aware of this, we are unable to get free from them, because we are attached to them.

Our attachments may also be emotional, such as acceptance, approval or love from specific persons or from all persons. Or we might be attached to professional success, or recognition, or to having things done the way we believe that they "should" be done, or to being the smartest or prettiest, or to having perfect order and cleanliness.

None of these are wrong or bad, but our attachment to them just might be creating suffering for us at this time, because we are not able to have what we are attached to. When we are attached in this way, we have two choices. We can suffer because we cannot get the banana out of the bottle and, thus, get trapped in vicious circle of suffering and unhappiness. Or, we can let our attachment become a
preference for the "banana" and let go of it when we see that we are only creating unhappiness for ourselves (and probably for others), and thus we can all stop suffering.

It often happens that we get so caught up in trying to force that specific banana out of a specific bottle, that we are blind to the fact that there are hundreds of bananas lying all around that bottle free for our taking, if we could just master up the intelligence to let go of the one, which we are trying to force life into giving us.

A good example of that is when we become attached to acceptance, approval or love from specific persons such as a parent, spouse, lover, friend or child. When we cannot get the affirmation of those feelings from them, we feel hurt and angry and try to force them in various ways to give us the recognition we are looking for. In our obsession for recognition from these specific persons, we loose sight of the fact that we have love, acceptance and approval from so many other persons. We are so focused on what we cannot get, that we are blind to what is offered so abundantly to us from other sources.

Are you aware of your bananas?

Are you aware that you are creating your own suffering,
because you refuse to let go of them?

What do you want to do about it?

What do you plan to do about it?
