My
Journey
It is
with gratitude and blessings that I would like to share with you, my
journey into the work of Louise L. Hay and the profound effect it has
had on my life.
In
1989 I was handed the book “You Can Heal Your Life”. The years
prior to this time had witnessed my struggle with physical health and
low self esteem. Louise’s words were the start of a new positive
thinking pattern which was to change my life.
I have worked in many teaching and tutoring positions, as well as case
management in the areas of socially disadvantaged adults and those
with special needs. Although
perceived by others as a successful and professional woman, my life
was a daily struggle.
As I read Louise’s words, I recognised that I had created an image
of perfection. I tried in
both my personal and work lives to portray this perfect image.
Perfection is an irrational way of the mind attempting to make a
situation right.
This concept of making things appear to be perfect began in my
childhood. When Louise introduced me to my frightened Inner Child and
the concept of forgiveness as a way to unconditional love, a new
journey began.
As I read the words of Louise Hay, I was drawn to her message of
changing the way you think about yourself and your life will change.
For me it did.
In April 2000, I completed the Teacher Training Course in
Perth
,
Western Australia
. It was at this time
that I shared a room with another course attendee and we became life
long friends.
In September 2000, with persuasion from my husband and friend, I
travelled to
California
to undertake the
Advanced Training and Personal Coaching Course.
Daily,
I practised loving, positive affirmations and found my peace and
centre through meditation practices.
Accreditation
with Personal Coaching, has enabled me to help many people on
individual levels, to overcome their fears and blockages to lead a
happy and productive lives.
About
My Work
For the past
9 years, I have facilitated individual coaching through personal and
telephone consultations throughout
Australia
.
I have facilitated workshops and study groups and I have been a
guest presenter of Louise’s work at many corporate and community
meetings.
For over 12 months I wrote a weekly newspaper article titled, “Body
Mind and Soul”. This newspaper services over 200,000 people.
I have facilitated meditation groups for world peace and presented a
well being segment on local radio.
My journey to find happiness and well being has enabled me to have
empathy and understanding for others. It has given me great joy to
have witnessed remarkable changes for many people through my training
in Louise’s work.
Testimonial
"In 2007 I was diagnosed with a mass
in the inner capsule of the brain which because of its position was
inoperable. This was a distressing time for me but it was also the
beginning of a wonderful journey that now I come to realise was an
awakening and a blessing. Through
my personal coaching sessions with Jillie I learnt to love my
Inner Child, to release my fear and emotional blocks and to
welcome happiness and love back into my life.I am now the Company
Director of my own Candle and Natural Essences Business, have a
loving and fulfilling relationship with my husband and 3 lovely
children. -Kirsten Macdonald
