Life Coaching
Life Thresholds
"Life thresholds" are those significant turning points in our lives. They often begin with a crisis or loss: a death, divorce, job change, or a feeling of just being lost on your life path. Though challenging, our life thresholds are natural platforms for positive change, and Seamus Norgaard employs a variety of tools to help you navigate them in fruitful and empowering ways.
Relationship Mentoring
There is no better place to trace your spiritual development than in relationship with others. You will discover your deepest shadows and sadness, experience your greatest joy and acceptance, and learn powerful nonviolent communication skills on this path of the conscious heart.
Spiritual Mentorship
Every choice leads to learning, every path leads to peace. Share in this non-judgmental space where we witness together the shadow and light of your journey, and the harvest of its teachings and blessings.
