About Authentic Living
The Authentic Living project was born as a result of requests from people who had been exposed to the Hale Method(TM) through Jenny‘s teaching, couples coaching, and/or one-to-one mentoring. Many people wanted this information to be available more widely – so here it is!
Are you sick and tired of suffering in relationships?
Contantly struggling to get the results you want in your work?
Had enough of the same, frustrating conversations?
Looking to have professional and personal relationships be more empowering and fulfilling?
Authentic Living is here to help.
Whether at work or at home, the quality of our life is largely determined by the quality of our relationships.
This website is designed to be a “one stop shop” for all good quality information and advice about emotional intelligence in work and relationships, including our most important relationship – the relationship we have with ourselves. It is a place where highly qualified and experienced coaches and trainers can be recognized for their expertise, and introduced to a wider audience.
The initial information was curated by Jenny, based on her decades of experience in coaching and mentoring individuals, couples, and groups. As the site develops, curation decisions will be made by a committee, to remove any possible bias from the choices.
Jenny Hale, creator of the Hale Method(TM), has an Honours degree in Psychology, and decades of experience as a coach, trainer and mentor. She supports people in having the results they really want – in business and communities, as well as family and romantic relationships. She has identified the fastest ways to break through disempowering lifelong patterns and achieve unimaginable results – without doing years of therapy!

VijayaSree Feres
Vijayasree is a Holistic Therapist, Hatha Yoga & Meditation teacher, and Shakti Priestess, with a background in performing arts, who draws from more than 10 years of hands-on experience.
An intuitive Healer, she has studied Ayurveda, Traditional Chinese Medicine, Theta Healing, Non-Dual Tantra, Trauma Therapy, and more. As a Therapeutic Yoga consultant, she coaches people to regain perfect health and empowers them to create the life that they really want.
She has been offering one-on-one intuitive massages and holistic modalities, and facilitating workshops & women’s circles in Europe and Asia for a decade, offering a safe space for people to reconnect to their bodies, broken parts and suppressed emotions, to find and live their deepest truth and highest purpose.
Her natural hyper-empathy, together with her years on stage, led her from an early age to a deep understanding of human nature (mind, body & emotions) and its intrinsic sacredness – and helped her develop practical ways to embody this wisdom.
A self-described “spiritual nerd”, she has dedicated her life to pursuing two main questions: ‘what is God?’ and ‘how to end suffering?’. Her work celebrates the Divine in all forms and is focused on helping others reconnecting to and fully embodying Its timeless wisdom, which is nothing less than the wisdom of the Spiritual Heart we all carry within.
Kim Lijffijt
Kim has been a teacher, mentor and guide in the area of education for nearly eight years. When it comes to Emotional Mastery, she learned most of what she knows through personal experience.
Growing up with a severely mentally ill mother, she lacked a proper role model in childhood. However, being a strong intuitive feeler as well as an intellectual analytic, she rose above her home situation and turned this tragedy into her strength.
Learning from anything she could get her hands on related to the topic of ‘How to Live a Happy Life’, her journey has taken her from ancient Greek philosophy through years of meditation practice to courses in psycho-analysis.
She used her innate strengths and inquiring intelligence to become the person she is today: solid, caring, and a guide for others, pointing the way towards a different, emotionally fulfilling, and stable way of being.
In 2020, Kim was struck by a truck while cycling in the Netherlands. She remains on medical leave, recovering from her injuries.
We wish her a full and speedy recovery.
