HEALTH All Change Ringing in the new… Transitions. We all go through them, from leaving school or moving house, to having a baby or losing a loved one. And in between the ‘biggies’ are all the little changes: the first grey hair, a failed friendship, or - of course - the start of a new year. So how can we cope constructively with change? It’s a subject close to the heart of Jaki Harris. A Life and Death coach who specialises in life transitions, she believes change brings opportunity, and that it’s how we handle it that counts. “It’s really important to stop and take stock,” she asserts. “We go through life at breakneck speed, without stopping to appraise where we are. We have to learn to take what we want, to let go of what we don’t, and to move on.” Part of the difficulty, she adds, is that change is often seen as scary. “There can be a lot of fear around times of transition, but the way through it is to let go of what’s gone before. Becoming conscious of what’s going on, and choosing to direct our own lives, can be very empowering.” Sometimes a person might not even be aware that they are going through change. “Often there’s a feeling of unrest, or a sense of something missing,” Jaki explains. “The person might be feeling lost and out of control, or they might feel depressed or a bit of a victim. Honouring a life transition is about taking control. It’s not about what happens to you, but how you deal with it.” Psychiatrist and concentration camp survivor Viktor Frankl famously identified the importance of this, noting that those who left the camps alive were typically people who had found meaning in the experience, while those who saw themselves as victims didn’t survive. And meaning, points out Jaki, is something that we have to find out for ourselves. “We’re constantly looking outside ourselves,” she maintains, “then there comes a point when we start to question what we are doing. It might be a classic ‘midlife crisis’, or it could be triggered by something specific, like the death of a parent. If we can find meaning in it, no matter what, it transforms our understanding and experience. But how we go about that is down to the individual.” In her work, Jaki offers bespoke sessions where clients can explore their issues, either through discussion, or with the use of creative tools, such as writing, drawing, and ‘play’. “When we do something creative, we can access the unconscious, which, as adults, we’re very good at suppressing,” she says. “If we create something, it helps access how we are really feeling, and takes us to a deeper place where we can gain new understanding. “If we can find meaning in experiences, it can transform our lives. Change can be difficult, but it is the birth of a new era. We need to remember that and move forward.” Anita Hall jaki@jakiharris.com 81
