Self Regulation is regulation of my Self by my Self.
It is the process by which I bring my Self back into balance with my Soul.
In balance, I am no longer in conflict with either my Self or others.
I cannot be in conflict with others and in balance with my Self.
I seek balance within my Self as I cannot regulate other people.
Self regulation cannot bring other people into balance.
A body of people cannot be self-regulating.
An organisation or an association of people can become independent of external regulation.
Independent Regulation is independent of external regulation but that does not mean it is self regulating.
It is not the association that requires regulation it is the individual members of the association.
Self regulation is dependent on Coaches regulating their Self, bringing their Self back into balance.
A Coach does not look to an organisation to regulate their Self.
Some may look to an organisation to regulate other coaches, preferring this to external regulation by an external regulating body, but this is only when they do not see the opportunity for individuals to be coached into becoming self-regulated and brought back into balance through their own choice.
Being self-regulating is a choice that all coaches choose irrespective of whether they belong to an association or not.
A Coach that does not choose to be in harmony & balance with their self and their clients is not a Coach.
