What is outdoor coaching?
During the outdoor coaching sessions, nature will help you to tell your story, and I will help you with that. Speaking figuratively, nature is your free coach, always there at your fingertips. It is just there.
Nature is full of symbols. Many of these can serve as a metaphor for your own situation. A symbol puts the situation outside of yourself, making it easier to observe and reflect on it from a distance. Whilst slowing your pace, you will get deeper insights quicker.
Just by being in nature, you will get into the right mindset. By walking, you start moving, not only physically, but mentally as well. Walking creates space for silence and contemplation. Eye contact is unforced, as we are not sitting opposite each other. Slowing down your pace in each session, allows your head and your heart to find a better balance and your intuition will come more easily.
What can I expect from outdoor coaching?
The pace is slow; we don’t walk more than 2-3 km in a 1.5 hr session. A complete outdoor coaching trajectory is typically five sessions over a period of 1-3 months. This will provide a structured step-wise approach where we take several sessions to slow down and embark on a deep personal discovery journey. We will accelerate only in the last session to define the concrete and practical steps forward.
If you prefer a slow relaxing pace, but are looking for quick results, then an intensive trajectory of one full day, or a a Coaching retreat in nature may be ideal for you, where you stay overnight in the cosy guest accommodation for several days.
I will design the coaching trajectory to your own individual needs, and before every session we will talk about what you personally would like to achieve in each session. I will also guide you to reflect on at least the following during your personal coaching trajectory:
– Insight in your current situation
– What do you want to be different and what makes you happy?
– What held you back before to do the right thing?
– What are your core qualities, the things that come naturally to you?
– What are the concrete steps you want to take?
A specific coaching question or problem will help you focus, but is not essential. During our free introduction call I will answer all your questions about nature coaching and you will discover how it can benefit you. This will be good enough as a starting point.
“I have followed the coaching in nature trajectory with Bram, because I had just completed the “Oersterk coach” training and I wanted some more insight on where I stood at that moment. And that is what it has given me: insight and self-reflection about who I am, what I stand for and where I want to go. Thanks Bram for these wonderful insights.”
Sandra Holterman – translated from original text in Dutch
“Bram has helped me to reach what was already inside me. What I truly want to be and achieve. In an almost childlike way, I have reflected upon myself with a simple and straighforward approach. And to give subtance to my inspirational thoughts. I have enjoyed it, learned from it, thought about it, and acted on it. Feeling what I know and want.”
Bernel Girwar – translated from original text in Dutch
“I found my coaching with Bram to be a really new and energising way to learn about myself as well as what my future goals are. I am 24 years old looking to find my next steps in life, and had never heard from nature coaching before. Bram really helped me gain insight into what want, as well as what is holding me back. I thoroughly enjoyed using different parts of his farm to go through the trainings. It is a pleasant break from the city, yet somewhat out of the way. Bram himself made me very comfortable, and was very good at explaining both how to do the exercises and what we were doing them for.”
