Read Anya Sophia's Musings

Anya began developing her skills at an early age in her family owned full service printing business. Since then, she has raised two grown children, excelled in Management positions in Sales and Marketing and has gained her Master Degree in Consciousness from the New England Institute for Transforming Consciousness.

"My practice is dedicated to my mentor April Prita Manganiello, who changed my life forever with these few words: 'You cannot make a blind man see'.

I never saw the world the same after that. This inspired me to work with people through the written and spoken word. I believe words can change lives forever, in an instant, from a shift in perception.

I am grateful and inspired to do the same for others. Thank you Prita."

Upon reflection, I credit most of what I have learned in my adult years to my interactions with children as a mother, grandmother and educator.

My passion is to assist those who want to have a positive influence with children of all ages.

I support parents and educators in balancing freedom with the structures that take young people to positive outcomes. My philosophy in creating learning environments lies in the awareness that life is a mirror reflecting to us ourselves.

Over the years, I have shifted from coaching classroom teachers, parents and students in the field of education for over 30 years to coaching individuals from many professions. I have been a classroom teacher, staff developer at an inner city middle school, a Learning Specialist and Diagnostician of learning styles.

It is from this broad base of understanding in how to create successful learning and life experiences that I desire to positively influence perspectives in today’s world of change knowing that children bring the next iteration to the plate.

As a graduate of Coach U I am currently associating with the mission of Conscious Journey Institute which is Lead the Leaders, Teach the Teachers and Heal the Healers.

Ruth spent 18 years in the UK Health Service learning the art of being with people in various roles: nursing, midwifery, counselling and education. She founded Ruth Hadikin Associates: Training and Development in 1999 with the aim: ‘to grow people’.

She has had many articles published in healthcare journals, a coaching column in The Practising Midwife journal, and is the author of “Effective Coaching in Healthcare”.

She co-wrote “Interpersonal Skills” and “The Bullying Culture” with Muriel O’Driscoll. Many of her articles are freely available to read online at: http://www.dreamcoach.co.uk/articles.htm

Although she is interested in both eastern and western spiritual teachings, and psychologies, her deepening wisdom is gained from experience of her own conscious journey: the path of spiritual growth and healing.

She is known for her unique blend of sage-like wisdom and gentle humour. Ruth offers Soul Astrology consultations through Conscious Journey.

I am passionate about transforming health care culture and believe the way to do this is through emotional intelligence, awareness and presence. I am in full alignment with the mission of the Conscious Journey Institute, especially Heal the Healers.

 

Most of our programs are led by our core faculty. However we do sometimes run programs led by external facilitators. If you are interested in running a class or program through CJI please e-mail:info@ConsciousJourneyInstitute.com

Some teleclass testimonials:

"Thank you for creating a powerful environment yesterday. I find that at this point in my coaching, I am drawn more to increasing my skills than to 'marketing'. This was a great example of demonstrating HOW." - Beverly Bitterman, Beverly Bitterman & Associates

"I attended one of her laser coaching demonstrations and was fortunate to have been coached by [Anya]. I experienced her as extremely gifted and able to get to the heart of the matter in seconds, not sessions! She helped me to hugely expand my vision and with that expansion came a sense of freedom that has not left me, even though it's been weeks since I spoke with her. " - Ellen

 "Most specifically for me, the things that touched me were the silent scream and hearing [Tony's] account of what his physical response to the question posed about his pain.  I also loved the posing of questions by Arlene and the question that came from the participant at the end, inspiring me to that next level. She powerfully "cut to the chase" with each volunteer AND respected all of the participants backgrounds and viewpoints." - JaneWhitney 

"I learned an amazing amount of info and also had a wonderful experience. I have spent the last 40 years being angry with the healthcare system.  I feel that just today in a call with my own coach and then on [the medical SIG] call - there was a shift. I realize now that the healthcare industry will do what it does and the real place of change will be each individual person who interacts with the system.   I have now put down the "angry bag" and picked up the mission of compassionately teaching about the possibilities of evolution in the heathcare industry."

"Thank you for an exciting call! I am still bristling with the excitement of my new learning."  

"I thoroughly enjoyed the call last week and was really impressed with [Anya's] coaching manner and the insights that people made.  It was a shame that it was only for an hour, I'm sure that we would all have liked to have experienced what would have come up in a session with her." - Paul.

"Thankyou for the opportunity. I will keep you informed of progress. The coaching was powerful, emotional and also felt safe" Muriel

"In a short coaching segment with Anya in the free playground I got to experience my deeper concerns about my addictive reaction, what keeps it 'alive', and to feel my anxiousness about the scenario melt away. My knee-jerk reactions have eluded my understanding for years. Anya created the space so that I could experience what has been at play, and access my inner wisdom of how I need to respond in the future. All this within 10-15 minutes. Her words and approach spoke directly to what I needed to hear and experience." - from Karen D

Some workshop testimonials:

"[coaching] gave me a sense of liberating freedom...this past week I have felt such a difference within myself. I feel like something inside me has opened up, it's hard to describe but inside my head feels different. I feel more conscious, more aware and a step further in the right direction to 'being'. This past week I have definitely experienced a difference in myself and feel so much more accepting of myself."- Joanne, workshop participant - Liverpool, UK

"I enjoyed the whole process of life coaching, especially conscious life coaching. To be aware and conscious of me in the here and now has proved to be a piece of invaluable advice. How liberating. I feel free and ready to move on with other concerns in my life. …thank you for awakening this in me" - Donna, workshop participant - Liverpool, UK

"Thank you so much for all the experiences yesterday at the Liverpool Anglican Cathedral. I had a number of 'insights' …I want to change to move forward with the dreams that I have. I loved your dynamic approach to helping people and the way you do it with such a sense of humour, I have spent a number of years following a spiritual path and your delivery really touches me to follow that direction. Please thank all the people on your team who helped make yesterday the success that it was." - Carol, workshop participant - Liverpool, UK

“The question you asked hit a chord and something released instantly. I felt it leave.” – June, workshop participant - Nashville, TN
After 2 weeks when asked "what was sustained?” She said:

“I feel freed up now. I have had an attitude shift and am more with myself. Something is still moving.”

“I felt the lifting in the room immediately and then with each person coached it got lighter and lighter and we were all affected. I feel a lightness, beauty and peacefulness and still carry it with me. I have been changed from having been there. I was profoundly changed by knowing everyone shares the same problems they just show up differently. I felt lightened up. A shift in another participant really hit home for me too when she realised she doesn’t have to give everything in order to get something” - Rene, workshop participant - Nashville, TN

 

CoachingNow "Maria's Story"

From May 12-16 2008 Conscious Journey offered week-long bonanza of free coaching calls celebrating the launch of CoachingNow™. At the beginning of the week we asked if one person would be willing to be coached every day throughout the week and be willing to share their experience with us here. Maria kindly stepped in. Here's what she says:

Maria's Sharing:

 

After the first call Monday May 12th 2008, Maria wrote:

"Wow
and double Wow

When I signed up for this call, I was deeply deeply
sceptical of the claims made for ten minutes of
coaching, and cast an extremely jaundiced eye at the
information on the site. We seemed to be in the land
of American Hyperbole, but in a spirit of curiosity
and 'what do i have to lose' I signed up. After
listening to Anya's interventions with the first three
participants, I began to change my mind. She really
seems able to cut through the mindchatter and get
to the underlying issues very very quickly.


So whats my story about why my life is'nt working
the way I want it to ?  I am the daughter of
a (undiagnosed) mentally ill mother and an
emotionally unavailabe father. None of the wider
family stayed in the UK, they either returned to
Ireland or emigrated to the States, so they did'nt
witness what was going on while I was growing up. The
family myth about my mother is that she was a 'Saint'
mistaking her religious mania for saintliness. Its
not easy being the daughter of a Saint...I can tell
you....you are not allowed to critisize although
I have some of the Saint virus in me...thinking I
have to rescue every lame duck who crosses my path....
it was exhausting.......so I've stopped. I keep a
journal and for some time have been grappling with a
success/failure pattern which I found hard to fully
come to grips with. Or maybe I just don't want to
see how much a hurt inner child was running the show?


It feels like all successs  I achieved were done to
get her attention/approval and it never came. So I think
the pattern I am running is the success I achieved
was for her,and since I was'nt ever acknowledged
for what I did and usually criticised.......then
I'd have to do failure to show that I was hurt/
damaged and probably to punish myself as well.
This insight really is a result of Anya Sophia's
coaching, and whats more important is that I felt
a lightness in my body, a sense of possibility
that I can move beyond putting my parents in the
dock, ultimately while valid these excuses are old and
stale, and I need to move on to a achieve some longstanding goals
of mine. I know the body stuff is important and
am still mystified as to how Anya got to this
place so quickly.......Thank You......
Best Wishes
Maria"

After the second call on Tuesday May 13th, Maria wrote:

"Whats new here is for me to allow just how approval
seeking I really am. Its been a very big step just
to admit that. People on the call would not know that
for years I have put on a social mask of being tough,
and indepedent and very in control. To move, to
discard the mask has been a big stretch; to allow how driven
I have been to get my mother's approval.

Yesterday I had glimpse of how the mechanism of my sabotage
works.. and its not pretty....wanting to punish my mother
for failing at the job, because I was told so often
that I had a great childhood, and so many
opportunities which she did'nt have, and I should be grateful......
(my mother was not the best psycologist in the world)
I also remembered several incidents, long forgotten
which I wanted to share,and then realised getting
angry yet again, is no longer the point.

When Anya starting working with me today
I was able to fully let go  of all 'the stuff'
just for a few blessed moments, I experienced a lot
of confusion and then just let it go........and
experienced enormous peace and a drifting sense, all
the urgency and rage gone............

if this is consiousness shifting then yes,who would'nt
want more of this  ?
Its late now..... I shall write the letter to my
mother tomorrow
Blessings to all on the call

After the call on Wednesday May 14th, Maria wrote:

"I decided to send a poem
It seemed in keeping with Anya Sophia's directions
to BREATHE, and the shallowness of breathing that
accompanies shame and fear.

Barely breathing, I take a stethoscope
to our relationship,
is there life there, yet,?
breathe in,life and light
breathe out
this testimony of pain

breathe in
my childish yearning
breathe out
the reprimands,the spurning

breathe in
slow silken moments

remembering a grandma's love
and her complicit camaraderie.
we are naughty allies
   as we test the boundaries of love

breathe in safety,in my grannys painted parlour
breathe out
the betrayals and dishonor
the lies and the aloneness

breathe in connection
breathe out seperation

so here is loves prescription
for a life full beyond description

breathe in
all that you know
and all that you don't

breathe in,
hope
and live"

After the call on Thursday May 15th, Maria wrote:

"Today was a special day, the birthday of a man who
has been very important in my life. I phoned his sister
and got confirmation that Mike had been moved to a care
home. Mike has Alzheimers, and it developed at an
astonshing rate. I have cried a great deal over these
developements as Mike played the role of spiritual
mentor amongst other things in my life, and is probably
one of the people I have been the most challenging
and the most relaxed with. I never ever dreamed it
would come to this. But today was his birthday, and
I decided to celebrate it anyway. So I sat and
remebered all the good times, all the trips to
France,Prague,Morocco. And this man, this two finger
typist had labouriously typed out my stories for my
creative writing class. Wow. For more than twenty
years Mike offered two pieces of advice, don't hold onto
your anger......let it go.......and Have Fun.


Thats all right for you I would argue furiously
(getting angry) you are the adored older son,
YOU HAVE HAD IT EASY, and he would agree, (he always
disarmed me by graciously agreeing with me), and I
realised that this is Mike's legacy to me,  So I sent
out a song of gratitude to the Universe, that I had known such a man
and that we had enjoyed each other so much. That
I relaxed enough with him to  HAVE FUN, and that
I can let the anger go. And I danced, and I giggled
(music Moby  aah yeah on A Night in nyc, and Sister
Sledge) and really let it go. Then I went to the
hairdressers cos i want to look good on Mikes
birthday. right? and she said......you look different
Are You in Love ?
Blessings to all
Maria"

At the end of the week Maria wrote:

"Something amazing happens when you play full out, doesn't it ? I certainly did play full out and its a long long time since I've done that. I was catapulted out of my normal ways of being on the second day of working with Anya Sophia,  and it's such a delicious space to be in, peaceful, allowing, accepting, sensing the world as essentially benign, and thus disengaging with the 'story' of ones' failure or success.

Although I do have a difficult backgound, all the energy tied up with my sabotaging behavior seems to have gone, replaced by a sense of well being and being fully present to this moment.I do have some sad situations to deal with like my friend Mikes situation, however he is not sad, and he would be proud to know I have achieved this state.

Thank you both so much  and to all who held the energy on the calls

Blessings

Maria"
