Siobhan Jonker

Mindfulness Coach

Mindfulness practices bring relief. They provide a sense of peace and spaciousness. As we practice bringing our attention into the present moment, we start to see and relate to the world and each other with more awareness, curiosity, openness and attention.

Right now, as never before, we are in need of tools and practices that keep us grounded and our nervous systems balanced. As we practice bringing our attention into the present moment, we identify just how much of our lives are spent on autopilot, often hypnotized by the negative, fear-based and judgmental narrative in our minds. 

To change your life, you have to change your energy. To change your energy, you have to become aware of the same habitual thoughts, behaviours and habits that make you feel the same emotions every day. 

With mindfulness practices we increase our awareness of what’s happening internally. We then have the capacity to create space between what’s happening, and how we are experiencing it. We notice, and are no longer fully identified with the never-ending circling narrative in our minds. Simply noticing our anxiety or frustration, for example, immediately allows us to change our perspective, take a breath and open to new, more life-enhancing choices.

I work with my clients to: 

• Develop solid, sound, regular mindfulness practices
• Quiet the mind, identify the narrative in their heads and live more fully in the present moment
• Cultivate a sense of meaning and connection in their lives
• Navigate and reframe challenging times
• Identify and develop their inner guidance/intuition
• Expand their awareness and consciousness
• Work with their energy and raise their frequency
• Live more authentically and in alignment with who they are
• Uncover their purpose on the planet
• Manifest the life they want

My coaching sessions are tailored to you, and grounded in practices and techniques that create positive change and facilitate integration of mind, body and spirit.  

MY BACKGROUND 

I graduated from the University of Cape Town with a Bachelor of Arts degree in 1988. In November 2006 I qualified as a Journey Therapist with Brandon Bays and went on to complete a diploma in Life Coaching through the Life Coaching Institute (UK) in November 2011. The Enneagram has always inspired and fascinated me, and in September 2016 I received my certification in the Enneagram through the Integrative Enneagram Accreditation Program. 

I have been on my own personal growth journey since young adulthood and never stop learning and growing, exploring all aspects of mindfulness, personal growth and the spiritual path.
