Layers of double binds and Houdini medicine

We live in layers of double binds - trapped by things (thoughts, emotions, behaviors) that both cause and relieve suffering, that both prevent and provide well-being.

//

To approach these double binds, and set to them, this is magical work. Or rather, magician's territory. More and more often, as I deepen into this work, I keep getting impressions of Houdini.

//

To discover the keys that unlock the shackles that bind us. And often these keys are hidden in plain sight. It takes Einsteinian relativity: you have to change your frame of reference to see them, or do some dimension-hopping and look down on your life from the vantage of Mount Olympus.

//

Or to wiggle, through profound liminality, cracks, crevices, and micro-movements, and in the most incremental, minute, way, loosen something just enough. To surrender to something much smaller, like the story of the mouse that chewed through the ropes binding the tiger.

//

If you want to do Houdini work, with a coach that coaches not quite like any other coach, hire me.

//

I was trying to explain how I work to someone and it's a mythic creature amalgamation of coherence therapy/change work (the body of a lion), unshaming (the head of an eagle), asking dangerous/beautiful/honest questions (the wings of a dragon), and astrology (the tail of a scorpion). I am your griffin (or manticore?).

Schedule a discovery call if you're feeling rapport/resonance.
