Notice Client’s Energy Shifts and Invite Exploration
Reflecting the clients inflections, energy, energy shifts, body language, tone, pace, etc., all provide benefit for the client in raising their self-awareness. If we avoid also inviting the client to notice and explore for themselves, the client has missed an opportunity to become more self-aware, and deepen their learning about themselves. Don’t assume they are aware.
Examples:
- NOTICING: “You are smiling.” (laughing, shrugging your shoulders, speaking more softly, closing your eyes, big sigh, tears, emphasizing that word every time you say it, waving your hands in the air, etc.)
- INVITING: What’s going on? What’s that about? What are you noticing? What are you feeling? What is happenning?
Inquiry: What does it take for me to notice AND invite his/her exploration?
