Mission:

Silent Moon Coaching Service’s mission is to help people take an inward journey to find their own answers that will create a life in which they feel authentically at choice, empowered, fulfilled and in charge.

Vision:

Silent Moon’s vision is to use natural places, the arts, writing and animals to help people connect with their truth, their voice, their talents and communities through Co-Active Life Coaching.

Philosophy:

Creativity is the forest of our humanity. Art and music help us connect with our roots and horses accompany us on our journey, carrying our burdens and providing companionship. Throughout history, horses have lifted us with myth, guided our sub-conscious mind in dream time, assisted in the construction of cities, provided transportation, and chaperoned in peace and war. They have patiently waited on the night time sidelines of dancing campfires throughout history while humans commenced in drum circles, singing life trials, and painting life with ancient story brushes hoping to imprint future generations with acquired knowledge and skill. They lead us into creation with the cadence of hoof beats that sound like drumming, summoning wisdom and connection to the divine. Silent Moon’s creativity based Co-Active Life Coaching service’s are for people that want change and are ready to step into making their dreams manifest. Human’s are natural beings part of the environment, not separate from it. Silent Moon seeks to use nature based mediums to assist you on your journey to create a life that brings you joy, fulfillment and positive challenges that will empower and inspire you.

Our philosophy was born out of Heather’s personal life-long experience connecting with horses, getting lost in art, and traveling with Renaissance Festivals around the United States in the 1990’s. “As a youth, I was lucky to learn from life experiential’s while traveling with a creative community. The journey changed my life through campfire conversations, drum jams, developing trust while rock climbing, river rafting, cars breaking down, and real friendships.  Natural rhythms of water, air and earth comforted our downtown and deepened our learning and what it all meant in the grand scheme of life.  From the desert in Arizona to the waters in Florida, the community grew my curiosity about expansive life and gave me experiences that changed my views and helped to realize that I choose what I want to create. This is the ground that sprouts the seeds of my coaching”. Coach Heather

Sometimes youth may not know what the next step is after high-school graduation, or they may have many interests and unsure where to put their time and energy. We also coach parents who want to support their youth but maybe feel over-burdened with responsibility, or maybe want help navigating the changing relationship with their evolving youth and are looking to make actions to improve their relationships with their teens. Whether parent or youth, we strive to help you design a fulfilling partnership and creative life with your unique situation.

“Holding A Light While You Navigate Through the Night“

Hello!  Welcome to Silent Moon Coaching Services. We provide life coaching to youth and their moms who love the arts, nature, animals and traveling.  By co-planning your creative path, you will learn how to integrate your talents and abilities into your family life. Some mediums that we use in coaching are painting, song creation, jam sessions, journal writing, vision boards, memoir writing, morning pages, walk and talk ©®  nature sessions, horses, and creative movement. Our personal philosophy is based on equal relationships between youth and parents with a focus on creativity and nature.

As a mother of a teenager and a painter, I understand the constant balancing of both of our needs and making time for creative pursuits. I help artistic youth and their moms find their creative paths and more family time by strategic planning of goals and time management. Through  coaching, youth design their own SMART goals and moms learn the intricate balance of creating and parenting by mindfully designing a life that includes what is important to them.

What is Life Coaching?  

The International Coaching Federations definition of Life Coaching is “partnering with clients in thought-provoking and creative process that inspires them to maximize their personal and professional potential. ICF(coachfederation.org).

Co-Active Life Coaching helps people through personal transitions, personal development, overcoming limitations, developing plans of action, and creating outcomes for satisfaction and fulfillment.  Coaching focuses on your strengths and honors you for the knowledge you have.  You design your unique coaching sessions to tailor what you want to achieve whether it be personal, educational, creative expression, career, starting a business, world travel with your family, or managing your time.  Coach Heather will shine a light while you navigate in the night©® .  As a coach, it is my duty to hold space for you while you design what you want to get out of coaching. Is your child/teen struggling with goals and getting homework completed?  Would you like to see him/her feel empowered, at choice, and part of their friend circle?  We can work towards his/her/their goals also.  Whether it be planning for college, vocation, or travel, transitioning between childhood to teen or teen to adulthood can be difficult to navigate.  We can work together to get your youth on track to feeling empowered and actively at choice. For more information about my niche, read the about section.

I work with all pronouns!

    If you are ready to make shift happen, please email me at heathler2@gmail.com.  Thank you so much for investing in yourself, you are worth it.

A wonderful website that I found while doing research for my own paper is http://www.spiritreins.org. Also, the director is willing to chat and I like her work she has done on the subject.

My current situation: I’m learning that painting is my go to for solving the super deep dilemmas at the soul level, the doodles fill in the quiet moment spaces, digital fractal art is for helping my eyes refocus and get clear on new ways of seeing things, creating music goes to my intellectual core and community connection space, writing reaches the most vulnerable and sweet places within me and creative movement like Zumba, helps me connect to flow and higher flow that connects us all to the divine. It’s so beautiful being able to see the depths of all that is within each medium or process. This is the essence of my healing journey and the premise from where I teach and walk from.

TM 2017

Nothing can be gained by regret.  Learn and move quickly from your misstep and try again harder today.  If unseen forces outside of you are pulling at your psyche, do what you can to move through it as fast as you can and turn your day around to make it the best you can for today.

Peace.

H.

You are worthy of love, of respect, and of your desires manifesting!  You matter!!  You are beautiful, courageous, and a survivor!  You are alive today.  You made it.  How will you celebrate this very important day?

With Honor and Integrity,

H. Leigh

What are your goals for this summer?  Are you looking to lose weight?  How much? By when? Do you have a trainer or someone to work out with?  Here are a few tips; keep your workouts exciting, do them often (three times a week cardio is what is recommended but I will say five to 6 times a day is more beneficial), and integrate weight training into your cardio.

Are you looking to produce more art?  Do you have a schedule mapped out? What times of the day are more productive for you?  What inspires you for new material?  What values are you trying to create in your art?  Political messages? Emotional?  How do you get to the visions you have in your head from where you are right now, today?

Are you a parent trying to get your child to cooperate but don’t know where to turn because you are short on time and support?  Do you wish you had more time with your children but are working too much and would like to change it?  I could assist in whatever goals you have with your children that will allow you to show up and be present with them and can give you daily tools to use to keep you focused on your parenting goals.

Do you have a burning desire to write that book you have wanted to write?  Do the ideas get caught in the wheels in your head and you get confused where to start and end up frustrated?  I could assist you with getting through the beginning stages of putting your ideas together and design a plan of action.

The mediums I use are of artistic origin and occasionally equine origin.  We can coach on the phone, in person, or with horses.  I am offering two sessions for the month of July for $10.00 because I believe in coaching, that it helps people shift, and that everyone should have equal access to personal coaching.  Whatever you strive for, I would love to help you realize your goals.

Create a Life From Passion Not Regret

I still have  a weekly hour session available at the twofer one price for the remainder of July.  If you know a youngster that could use some motivation with help through the arts, or a single mom who could use some self nurturing through creative movement, or a musician that has reached writers block, or a care-giver that is looking to re-create himself/herself and transition to a new career, they may benefit from having a personal Life Coach.  Life Coaching is an amazing gift to give someone you love.  Life Coaching is not therapy, it is similar to a sports or singing coach only I hold space for you while you design goals that you would like to reach in the areas of personal development, action plan, living according to your values, and orchestrating a balanced life. This is my passion, I love to help people reach their full potential through the arts.  I am an artist.  I live and breathe art and I go through blocks just like many others do.  I have tools that can help create shift and get you moving towards your passion and fulfillment.

Create a life from passion not regret!
