The symbolism of the Phoenix is central to our mission and based upon the legendary bird’s reputation for being cyclically regenerated or reborn. A Phoenix dies in a show of flames and combustion before being reborn, arising from the ashes of its predecessor. If you’re reading these words now, then chances are that you have undergone some type of life-altering experience, whether that be depression, anxiety or a traumatic life event. Such circumstances often represent a breaking down of old dysfunctional patterns of living and thinking in order to make way for new patterns more in tune with the improved lifestyle you will go on to live. At the time that it happens, the breaking down of the old can be hugely traumatic, devastating and destructive. Like the Phoenix bursting dramatically into flames at the end of its life-cycle, it can seem like literally the end of the world. And in a sense it is. It’s the end of an old world, old ways of thinking and acting, old outdated methods of living and working and old relationships which no longer serve you. It could be that you’ve lost your job, that a marriage or long-standing friendship has ended or that circumstances are forcing you to make a geographical move about which you’re uncertain. Such changes are natural sources of anxiety and apprehension. Letting go of the past can be extremely difficult and frequently involves a significant emotional wrench. But sometimes you simply have to let go of the past in order to clear the way for an entirely new life which may well prove to be much better than the old one.
