“When you are compassionate with yourself, you trust in your soul, which you let guide your life.”

John O’Donohue

What is InnerView Guidance?

InnerView is the soul knowledge it takes to navigate the interior landscape with a new map, the 4Fold Path map. Psychology for what the soul wants. InnerView Guidance is the process of aligning feelings, needs, values and purposes, which allow our inner and outer worlds to be congruent. It’s about narrowing the gap between one’s persona in the world and the summons of true personhood; to be within yourself what you would like to see more of in your relationships. It involves listening closely to the nuanced voice of wisdom.

What is soul work?

Soul work is the process and practice of fully inhabiting one’s personhood in all four aspects of life (physical, emotional, mental, spiritual) and all four dimensions of personhood (spirit, soul, ego, psyche). The self cannot be reduced to biological predispositions, psychological mechanisms, or social conditioning. When we’re doing our soul work, we have a life journey GPS, allowing troublesome life situations to be redeemed as exactly what we need to shift the internal balance of power from ego to soul. Thankfully, we don’t need to debate what the soul is to know what it does. The soul has the capacity to keep us grounded, to keep things simple, to bring beauty and value to our surroundings, and travel through the world offering the gift of full presence.

The soul knows it’s not what you’ve got; it’s what you do with what you’ve got. The soul is what can choose kindness and compassion when surrounded by hatred and fear. It’s the quality of consciousness that cultivates inner peace when there are reasons to feel frustrated or discouraged. Soul strength is not just the sum of mental health, good character traits and personal well-being. Soul work goes further, invoking the spiritual awareness ever emerging at the growing edge of challenging circumstances. It involves a person’s unique capacity to answer the call beyond themselves and be…

…rooted in one’s truth and life purpose; able to subdue the diversions of ego

…connected to the community; knowing we are all profoundly interrelated

…moved from repeating patterns and predicaments to preferred states

…able to refine our unique gifts so we can meet specific needs in the world

…guided by empowered choices; consciously applied at the crossroads of life

…true to our essential values; aligned inside with our socially known persona
