Salma El-Shurafa What makes me the ideal person to help you on this journey? Now, I want to help you do the same. The you, you deserve to be.

My customized coaching programs address your individual needs, challenges, desires, and objectives to help you reach your full potential and awaken your state of aliveness, both professionally and personally. Through customized one-on-one coaching sessions, workshops, and retreats I address your individual needs, challenges, desires, and objectives to help you become the best version of yourself a

nd create the leadership and life you want. As well as being a Professional Certified Coach (PCC) from the International Coach Federation (ICF) and a Certified Professional Co-active Coach (CPCC) from the prestigious industry-leading, Coaching Training Institute (CTI), I am also a faculty member at CTI, helping train and supervise the new generation of coaches. Just like everyone, I’ve lived the highs and lows of life, but instead of letting things get the better of me, I’ve learned how to grab them with two hands and improve my life by enhancing the way I interact with them. I have allowed myself time to address my emotions and life experiences and use them as a source of information to help me create the path I want. I will guide you to uncover the path to reaching your full potential to awaken your innate state of aliveness, both professionally and personally. I’ll ask the tough questions that will have you digging deep to reveal hidden parts of yourself and help you befriend your emotions and story while you navigate through them. I will guide you to the answers that lie within you with one goal in mind – to bring out the best you.

Your nervous system learns by repetition. Every time you disconnect from a feeling, push it down, override it, distract from it, you practice disconnection. Do it enough times and it becomes automatic. You don’t even choose it anymore. The body just does it.

That’s the same mechanism that makes aliveness a practice. Every time you slow down enough to actually feel something, to stay in your body instead of leaving it, to let an emotion move through instead of managing it, you’re training your nervous system in a new direction. You’re building new pathways. Literally.

This is not metaphor. This is neuroscience. The body learns what you repeat.

Most people think aliveness is either there or it isn’t. Like a personality trait. Like luck. But it’s a capacity and like all capacities, it develops through practice. You practice presence. You practice sensation. You practice staying. And slowly the body starts to trust that feeling is safe. That being here is okay.

The opposite is also true. Numbness is a practice. Shutdown is a practice. Bracing is a practice. We just never called it that so we never questioned it.

Some things end… and the body is still there.

Still holding, still alert, still not fully settled.

I’m learning that it’s not about pushing past that or trying to calm it down.

It’s about giving the body the time and conditions to come back on its own.

He’s still settling.

And I think I am too.

Lately I’ve been noticing how differently we all respond to uncertainty and overwhelming information.

This is a small reflection on what I’ve been observing in myself. I’m also curious what you’ve been noticing in your own system these days.
