What are the benefits in joining the Feel Free Small Coaching Group?
That’s what we are going to talk about in today’s Feel Free post. Group sessions, as the name suggests, is counseling in a small group, made up of a maximum of 8 participants. It is created for everyone to feel safe, feel supported, and have an opportunity to share and grow together.

WHAT IS A COACHING GROUP?
A coaching group is about sharing in order to grow together.
Through the sessions you will have the opportunity to deepen personal issues and at the same time have a direct and immediate sharing opportunities with other participants.
You will discover that many of the inconveniences, worries, or difficulties you carry inside are common to many other people as well; and sharing them in a safe space, in respect and privacy, is of great help.
This experience increases your inner strength and your confidence in facing the challenges that life brings you.
A different theme will be discussed during each meeting, always in the context of personal growth.
The sessions have several objectives:
01 – To give the opportunity to think and brainstorm on fundamental issues of inner growth
02 – To offer a safe space in which to expose one’s perception and one’s daily experience
03 – To find an opportunity for a mutual support in the group, a resource to face your challenges
04 – To receive clarity and tools on how to apply the issues addressed in the group
05 – To increase the capacity for observation and feedback without judgment and personal projections
06 – To learn how to manage your emotions and improve relationships
07 – To decrease the sense of isolation and rediscover the value of sharing
HOW DOES A COACHING GROUP WORK?
Each group session goes through different phases:
- Welcome and centering exercises, or guided meditation
- Sharing how we feel in the moment
- Introduction to the topic of the day: how it manifests itself, how to manage it, what are the benefits when we manage it consciously
- Work in the “center” with one or more participants. A participant shares his/her experience related to the topic and how they feel about it.. The group counselor then starts an individual work, with the the rest of the participants observing
- At the end of the individual work, the trainer explains the choices made in managing the exploration of the experience
- Questions and Answers open the sharing to the whole group
- • At the end, there is always a short moment of meditation
For the success of the experience, we work to develop these fundamental qualities:
- Presence, Sharing and Holding space in each meeting
- Honesty, Openness and Persistence
Respect for confidentiality
- Willingness to receive and give support
- Sharing ideas, perceptions and lived experiences
LOGISTICS
In Feel Free, we organize the group coaching session twice a month and we ask participants to make a commitment for all 6 meetings for a total duration of about 3 months.
Group sessions last 2 hours on average, to ensure everyone has space for expression and sharing.
Groups have a maximum of 8 people.
We believe it is the right number to take care and give support to all participants.
PRICE
The entire cycle of 6 meetings has a total cost of € 450.00. The package also includes a few recorded Guided Meditations, Breathing and Core Energetics exercises to practice between each session: to release physical and mental tensions, increase resilience and groundness, and find inner guidance.
It is not possible to buy single session, but only the entire experience.
UPCOMING COACHING GROUPS
Every new cycle starts with a ZOOM introduction meeting, which is free for everyone. We introduce how the coaching group works, what people can expect, we briefly go through the 6 topics and we answer the questions.
For reference, these are the topics discussed in our last coaching group:
“The inner child”
“Fear in relationships”
“Shame and guilt”
“Abandonment and rejection”
“Betrayal”
“The strength of vulnerability”
Our next coaching group will be held in Autumn 2022, but we still don’t have a fixed date.
