The Landscaping Your Life (LYL) toolkit is a set of down to earth tools using nature’s landscapes as metaphors for your life to help you get back on track.
How do the LYL tools work?
When you’re struggling logic isn’t always a great help because it’s being impacted by how you’re thinking and feeling about the situation. The detail, history or even drama attached to a situation can often therefore get in the way of you finding a solution.
The tools in the LANDSCAPE toolkit all bypass your struggling logic.
Language & words - because words have power and have much insight hidden within them
Analogy & metaphor - because a metaphor paints a thousand pictures (and you know what a picture paints)
NLP & mindset - because being conscious of your thinking provides more choice of action
Drawing & collage - because the creative part of you does have secrets to share
Stories & poems - because your inner wisdom loves nothing better than for you to journey within and hear its whispers
Cards & games - because when asked to act 'as if' something is true you can uncover the truth
Absurdity & laughter - because laughter is a great shaker of stuck mindsets
Patterns & programs - because it's not the content of a situation that is keep you stuck but the repeated and habitual patterns of thinking and acting
Empowerment & Awareness - because self awareness and personal responsibility is where the transformation begins

“Alison is one of the best coaches I have ever had the pleasure of working with (and I've worked with a few!). She has a highly practical nature and combines it with strong intuition and unconventional tools to guide you to find insights and answers to specific challenges.
Alison asks powerful thought provoking questions, but it's not just about coming up with answers in your mind; in my session she used various unconventional tools to help me connect with my intuition to gain new insights and awareness about my situation. Not only that, due to Alison's skill and patience I was able to experience a profound shift in relation to an ongoing challenge that had been holding me back in my life and I left the session with action steps to enable me to progress further.
Whether you're looking for a personal coach or you're looking for a highly skilled executive coach in the workplace for insights, awareness and more importantly a clear idea of the next action to take, if you're ready to try a powerful alternative, I highly recommend you get in touch with Alison.”
