STAR TESTIMONIAL
from a Second Life coaching client
To Whom It May Concern,
I write this letter as an endorsement of the spectacular coaching talents of Gina Pickersgill. I have struggled with severe depression for over ten years. In a search for relief, I have visited several therapists, tried several types of medication, and examined multiple philosophies and religions. Throughout all my efforts, I occasionally found a teaching or two that provided temporary solace, but never found anything I could stick with and that felt right to me. I felt lost and beyond help and even had contemplated suicide. Fortunately, I was able to meet Gina, who has helped me realize I could turn things around by believing in myself and trusting my own abilities.
One day while using the virtual world of Second Life, I searched for the word healing. A spectrum of groups came up in my results, one of them called The Healing Pool. The description I read sounded inviting and unencumbering, so I sent an instant message to the group’s founder, Gina Pickersgill. She was kind and friendly, further describing the group and the life coaching and relaxation sessions provided there. Still depressed and at disappointed in the results I had seen from therapy and medication, I decided to try out her life coaching services. I had little to lose. Locked in patterns of negative thought which seemed inescapable and drifting toward dangerous coaching behaviors, I was open to new methods of healing.
Gina’s approach in our sessions was revolutionary to me. With a combination of Neuro-linguistic programming and her own unique methods, she helped me recognize the feelings and ideas that had been giving me trouble. Using the virtual world of Second Life, she was able to help me interact with these feelings more by giving them a size, shape, and color in the virtual setting so I could see them better and , as I attempted to manipulate them with positive thought, she followed along by manipulating a representation on screen, so I had something visual and somewhat concrete to connect with. I found this powerful and illuminating. By placing some of my problems with facing criticisms in a form like this, I was able to let go of them as I visualized condensing them into a baseball and throwing it away. Afterward, I reread some evaluations of me from work and found my anxiety greatly reduced.
The most impressive part of Gina’s coaching come in her ability to remind me of my own capability. I knew that in my search for freedom from my depression that I was too focused on external answers and I needed to believe in myself and find internal ones. In our most powerful session, Gina encouraged me to focus on my good feelings and view what I wanted to be come in the future. I saw a picture not unlike what I am now, focused on the positive things I do and love and can expand upon. All the pain I had felt was based upon my own negative ideas and perceptions. Once I was able to realize this, I could let them go and move on.
I do not claim to be totally healed from my depression. I realize that I still have work to do in taking charge of my situation and being less hard on myself. However, the work I have done with Gina has given me a renewed vigor and hope for the future by helping remind me how strong and capable I am. Since our sessions have started my very perceptions, both mental and sensory, seem brighter now. I am proud to offer her the most shining endorsement possible, not for a miracle result her method produced, but for the spectacular way she helped remind me of my own strength and encouraged me to believe in it. Such is the essential function of a coach, to bring out the best in those they work with.
Sincerely,
John Chovanes

Why am I Unique?
I have pioneered the delivery of NLP and Coaching in Second Life, a 3D virtual world where I work with you in ways that are not possible in 'real life'. The visual graphics and building abilities make it an unprecedented environment in which to effect very powerful change.
My Approach? Revolutionary
I am a modern mystic and Spiritual NLP Life Coach. People come to me when they become aware that something fundamental is missing in their life and don't know what to do next. I believe that everybody has a divine calling and that following it is the key to true happiness and well-being.
Why can I help?
I am good at connecting people with their life purpose. For years I have been seeking the answers to deep questions which has led me to all sorts of wonderful teachers that have guided me on my quest to find my own purpose. I am at my happiest when when helping others to find theirs.
How do I do that?
I take them on a journey into the realms of possiblity and show them what their life could be like when they overcome obstacles to success. I help them realise their personal destiny using methods designed to cut through the 'non-sense' and penetrate through to the truth of who they are and what they are really here to do.
The results my clients experience are that they feel lighter and brighter; look younger and more glowing; sound more optimisitc and focused and act in more determined and powerful ways.
If this is something you want too, you can start today by submitting a pre-coaching questionaire after which I will contact you within 48 hours.
