I hope you enjoyed your summer vacations, holidays, travels, or just relaxing at home, as we say

Next Monthly Meeting: September 12th
Date: September 12, 2013
Time: 7:00PM to 9:00PM
Special Interest Groups (SIGs) conducted before the general meeting
from 6:00 - 6:50pm.
Location: PPA Event Center, 2105 Decautur St, Denver, CO 80211
Speaker: Chris Balsley
Topic: "Stress Navigation and TRE™"
*CCEUs: 1 in Core Competencies
TRE™ exercises are a powerful series of stress relieving exercises that can be learned in an hour
and after being learned, can be practiced in as little as 20 minutes. When executed properly, TRE
™ exercises can decrease the effects of long-term stress while at the same time increasing the
capacity to execute and lead effectively.
These revolutionary stress relieving exercises are the work of David Berceli PhD and have been
taught to hundreds of thousand people over the past twenty years. In addition to being used by
people from every walk of life, they have effectively helped victims of the recent earthquake and
Tsunami in Japan, victims of violence in Beirut, Somalia and Afghanistan as well as members of
US police forces and the US military. There is a 25% to 75% ratio of didactic to experiential
learning. This means participants should wear comfortable clothes and be ready to move.

years of outstanding experience in supporting his clients. Focusing on inspiring professionals to
be the best leaders they can be, especially in the face of adversity, Chris dedicates a large portion

EXPERIENCED COACHES SALON
September 18, 2013
7:00PM - 9:00PM
Location: see information below
Facilitated by: Reuel Hunt & Lauren Fisher
5+ Years of Coaching Experience? You’re Invited to Check Us Out!
The next meeting of the Experienced Coaches Salon is September 18th from 7-9pm.
The Salon Format is a safe place in the home of one of the participants where experienced
seasoned coaches share their journey as coaches with other like coaches in an open, safe and
intimate dialogue, while boring deep into shared seasoned coaches' issues.
In our new format, we focus and go deeper on one topic that surfaces during our check-ins, and
we keep our check-ins bottom-lined and time sensitive so we can go deeper on a chosen topic.
Summary from August Meeting:
We began with check-ins all around, including sharing of resources relevant to each person's
check-in. The check-ins led to a discussion on this topic: Noticing important changes in our
environment and ourselves, coming to peace with what is – more peaceful energy, and
more clarity, or at least more clarity seen on the horizon.
Location:
Conifer, CO
(address and phone sent to RSVP’s)
Please contact Reuel or Lauren to RSVP and to receive more details about this SIG.
We look forward to seeing you there!

ARTICLE: Bridging the Gap to GEN Y - Top 5 Tips to Understanding "Y"
by Stephanie Wachman
President-Elect, ICF Colorado
If you're a Gen Xer or Baby Boomer, it's time to understand Generation Y. There are 75 million
Generation Y-employees in the workforce. 60 million Baby Boomers are going to exit the work
force in the next 3 years and Gen X includes about 40 million. Gen Y is a huge up and coming
generation that not only has a loud voice but really sees the world and specifically their work/life
differently.
To better understand GEN Y, we need to start at the beginning. From childhood, GEN Y grew up in
sports programs where everybody got a trophy and was always successful. The parents of the
GEN Y kids always provided them with positive feedback and coaching such as saying "great job!,"
"you can be anything you want..." They also grew up with technology at their fingertips: TV, video
games, iPods, Nintendo, texting and on and on.

The ICF Colorado Board of Directors
Membership in the ICF Colorado
Greetings from the membership director of ICF! I hope this newsletter finds you happy, healthy
and wise. What we do in this world as coaches is so crucial. I have had a recent passing in my
family, and I sat at my desk working on my audio meditation coaching class thinking to myself, "I
could not do anything else in this lifetime." My focus of my coaching is self-love so we can be the
best partners, parents and performers at work possible. I always think when you look back on
your life, will you know you lived your best life? That is where we come in as coaches. With this
purpose, we should all have full practices, and there should be 100s of members! How can we
create this together? What ideas do you have for us as the membership team? We have a team
together; would any of you like to join us or offer some ideas and suggestions to build our
membership? I wish each of you an amazing day . . . until the meeting. :) I look forward to
seeing your smiling face!
If you know other coaches out there that are not members, please assist all of us and ask them to
attend a meeting. The first meeting is FREE with the coupon code we provide to first time visitors.
For our former members who have allowed their memberships to lapse, we invite you to renew
right away and re-commit to being a part of our community of coaches. Our educational
programming has been very powerful over the last year, and we've had some wonderful meetings.
Renewing your membership will also give you the opportunity to renew the friendships you made
while a member.
For those of you who aren't yet members, we invite you to tour our website, check out the past
and upcoming programs, and call if you have questions. We invite you to join our chapter and
become engaged in the work of learning together and creating a strong community.
So why should coaches and prospective coaches want to join ICF Colorado? As a member of ICF
Colorado, they will join a wonderful community of individuals committed to making a difference in
the lives of their clients, connecting with other coaches, developing themselves, and contributing
to the profession of coaching. Our community includes brand new coaches as well as very
experienced and highly successful ones. We also welcome those who are exploring coaching as a
profession and who have not yet started the process of becoming a coach.
There are many benefits to membership in ICF Colorado starting with being able to attend the
monthly meetings at no additional cost. The educational presentations during our meetings are
delivered by highly successful coaches with special expertise and are but one of the resources
available for helping our members develop and refine their coaching skills and build their
businesses. As a member, one has the opportunity to network with other coaches and participate
in one of the Special Interest Groups (SIGs). The SIGs are led by experienced coaches, giving
participants the opportunity to learn and engage in lively discussion. Two of the three SIGs are
held immediately prior to the meeting, and we encourage everyone to check them out. In addition
to the SIGs and monthly educational programming, we also have other programs and events such
as workshops and tele-classes, with reduced rates for members.
When highly experienced coaches, coaches building their practices, and those who are just getting
started join together to support their chosen field, magic happens. So please help us grow our
membership and be part of the magic we can create. I look forward to meeting you all at the next
meeting!

Location: PPA Event Center, 2105 Decautur St, Denver, CO 80211 Speaker: Chris Balsley Topic: "Stress Navigation and TRE™" *CCEUs: 1 in Core Competencies TRE™ exercises are a powerful series of stress relieving exercises that can be learned in an hour and after being learned, can be practiced in as little as 20 minutes. When executed properly, TRE ™ exercises can decrease the effects of long-term stress while at the same time increasing the capacity to execute and lead effectively. These revolutionary stress relieving exercises are the work of David Berceli PhD and have been taught to hundreds of thousand people over the past twenty years. In addition to being used by people from every walk of life, they have effectively helped victims of the recent earthquake and Tsunami in Japan, victims of violence in Beirut, Somalia and Afghanistan as well as members of US police forces and the US military. There is a 25% to 75% ratio of didactic to experiential learning. This means participants should wear comfortable clothes and be ready to move. About Chris Balsley Chris Balsley maintains a thriving and diverse professional coaching practice with twenty-seven years of outstanding experience in supporting his clients. Focusing on inspiring professionals to be the best leaders they can be, especially in the face of adversity, Chris dedicates a large portion of his career to helping individuals and teams increase their performance and shift their moods intentionally. He accomplishes this by teaching them how to mitigate the effects of workplace stress, by training them how to listen and speak more powerfully, and by demonstrating to them the connection between leadership and the human body. The current scope of Chris’ practice includes a variety of domains: • Corporate, executive and individual coaching • Organizational, team and individual trainings • Program design and implementation • Applied neurobiology, psychology and ontology Chris develops and delivers multi-method and body-based training programs for integration into public programs and corporate trainings.

Click here to read more about Carl ARTICLE: Bridging the Gap to GEN Y - Top 5 Tips to Understanding "Y" by Stephanie Wachman President-Elect, ICF Colorado If you're a Gen Xer or Baby Boomer, it's time to understand Generation Y. There are 75 million Generation Y-employees in the workforce. 60 million Baby Boomers are going to exit the work force in the next 3 years and Gen X includes about 40 million. Gen Y is a huge up and coming generation that not only has a loud voice but really sees the world and specifically their work/life differently. To better understand GEN Y, we need to start at the beginning. From childhood, GEN Y grew up in sports programs where everybody got a trophy and was always successful. The parents of the GEN Y kids always provided them with positive feedback and coaching such as saying "great job!," "you can be anything you want..." They also grew up with technology at their fingertips: TV, video games, iPods, Nintendo, texting and on and on.

Opportunities for ICF-CO members to provide presentations to various organizations and vice versa. Developing long-term relationships so that these organizations have an ICF-CO ‘go-to’ person who will be available to them long-term. Having our finger on the pulse of mental health issues and legislation in CO so that we might have a say in what would be beneficial for the coaching community.

The ICF Colorado Board of Directors Membership in the ICF Colorado Greetings from the membership director of ICF! I hope this newsletter finds you happy, healthy and wise. What we do in this world as coaches is so crucial. I have had a recent passing in my family, and I sat at my desk working on my audio meditation coaching class thinking to myself, "I could not do anything else in this lifetime." My focus of my coaching is self-love so we can be the best partners, parents and performers at work possible. I always think when you look back on your life, will you know you lived your best life? That is where we come in as coaches. With this purpose, we should all have full practices, and there should be 100s of members! How can we create this together? What ideas do you have for us as the membership team? We have a team together; would any of you like to join us or offer some ideas and suggestions to build our membership? I wish each of you an amazing day . . . until the meeting. :) I look forward to seeing your smiling face! If you know other coaches out there that are not members, please assist all of us and ask them to attend a meeting. The first meeting is FREE with the coupon code we provide to first time visitors. For our former members who have allowed their memberships to lapse, we invite you to renew right away and re-commit to being a part of our community of coaches. Our educational programming has been very powerful over the last year, and we've had some wonderful meetings. Renewing your membership will also give you the opportunity to renew the friendships you made while a member. For those of you who aren't yet members, we invite you to tour our website, check out the past and upcoming programs, and call if you have questions. We invite you to join our chapter and become engaged in the work of learning together and creating a strong community. So why should coaches and prospective coaches want to join ICF Colorado? As a member of ICF Colorado, they will join a wonderful community of individuals committed to making a difference in the lives of their clients, connecting with other coaches, developing themselves, and contributing
  • 12. to the profession of coaching. Our community includes brand new coaches as well as very experienced and highly successful ones. We also welcome those who are exploring coaching as a profession and who have not yet started the process of becoming a coach. There are many benefits to membership in ICF Colorado starting with being able to attend the monthly meetings at no additional cost. The educational presentations during our meetings are delivered by highly successful coaches with special expertise and are but one of the resources available for helping our members develop and refine their coaching skills and build their businesses. As a member, one has the opportunity to network with other coaches and participate in one of the Special Interest Groups (SIGs). The SIGs are led by experienced coaches, giving participants the opportunity to learn and engage in lively discussion. Two of the three SIGs are held immediately prior to the meeting, and we encourage everyone to check them out. In addition to the SIGs and monthly educational programming, we also have other programs and events such as workshops and tele-classes, with reduced rates for members. When highly experienced coaches, coaches building their practices, and those who are just getting started join together to support their chosen field, magic happens. So please help us grow our membership and be part of the magic we can create. I look forward to meeting you all at the next meeting!
