Hello, I’m Jerry Sherwood, relationship transformation coach for Your Great Life.
Life as my Teacher
I was not always a good student, but Life is persistent and very good at knowing precisely what I need and when I need it. It was not always pretty. Details are not important. Suffice it to say that much of my adult life was strained between my ideals and aspirations about Universal Love – after all I was a child of the 60′s – and the reality that I was deeply flawed and scarred emotionally. I could be brilliant, caring and peaceful and stupid, self-absorbed and violent – all within a single day, or hour.
It was easy for me to blame the one that was closest to me, my wife. After all, my shadow was invisible to me. It was only by grace that we managed to stay together. Life is my primary teacher and for over 35 years marriage has been my home room.
The Shift
It was around 1983 that Life got really serious and cornered me again and again to spur me on to greater depths. After five or so years I finally got it and began to listen to my Heart’s guidance more and more, although I had not yet labeled it as such. I soon came to realize that if there was going to be any change in my world it had to start with me. Looking back I can see that again and again Life has brought me to the exact circumstances and resources I needed.
Genuine transformation is possible. But it’s not at the end of some process, it is the process. A process that we cannot escape. What seems to be a transformation is actually a shift – from being unconsciously engaged by the process to being a conscious participant in it. And that shift changes everything.
The Work
Over the years everything has coalesced into a comprhensive set of skills, modalities and knowledge that enable me to work with a broad range of people, at various junctures, in their own transformative journey along virtually any spiritual path. For me path has been defined by relationship. And, when you get down to the nitty gritty, where the rubber meets the road, all spiritual paths are about how we relate to the world around us.
The essence of coaching, in any arena, is to bring out the best in others. And so it is in life coaching. I love that opportunity, I love that challenge. This is my passion.
The Training
While life experience certainly informs much of what I have to offer as a coach I have bolstered my skills with some specific training in modalities I found to be effective and efficient. In particular I have received well over 200 hours of training from Great Life Technologies, working with the 12 Core Dynamics of Human Conditioning and the 8 Pure Awareness Techiques. I am certified by GLT to coach on the Power of How and to train coaches in the GLT model and techniques. Other certifications from GLT allow me to conduct workshops to Vaporize Your Stress and Anxiety and to serve as a Trauma Resolution Specialist.
I am self schooled in Ken Wilber’s integral philosophy and and apply integral theory in my coaching practice and programs.
