The Garden Company is a personal development workshop and coaching company.

We believe the foundation of enduring, lasting personal growth is healing our unresolved emotional baggage.  With out releasing our emotional baggage efforts to improve or change our lives will fail. Even worse new teachings on how you “should” be can actually make us feel worse as we learn more tools but feel helpless to use them on a regular basis.

Unresolved childhood emotional baggage is often the basis, even as adults, of strong emotional reactions, lack of confidence, depression, stressful, or other unwanted behaviors and feelings. Often this baggage shows itself in our relationships at home and work often leading to divorce or job related stress. The baggage will also show itself in health related issues such as obesity or even in our relationship with our own children.

On top of the emotional baggage we have unconsciously developed coping mechanisms such as anger, withdrawal, giving ourselves away, depression or other behaviors to keep us from experiencing more of the emotional pain associated with the emotional baggage.

At The Garden Company we believe the emotional baggage must be released before any of the coping mechanisms and behaviors can shift. Our teachings, coaching, and curriculum is based on this philosophy. We start with recognition that something in my life is not working. What is it I want to change?

We then teach and create sanctuary (literally a safe place), with safety comes relaxation, with relaxation awareness (where do I carry my pain and stress). We then teach emotional release, the cornerstone of our philosophy. Once the baggage is released we can then look at shifting the behaviors and coping mechanisms that were shaped by the emotional baggage.

We also teach that once the baggage is released, once we are no longer burden or weighted down by that baggage, we can access our inner knowing, that deep sense of intuition and spiritual guidance that is at the core of our life force and the core of what we really want in our lives.
