why mindfulness coaching?
Mindfulness coaching helps you gain stronger and more reliable access to internal states that improve how you feel and perform. I have developed a unique approach to boost your meditation practice by combining bodywork with more conventional instruction methods. I also take it a step further by training and supporting you in applying your meditation skills to your personal and professional life.
What is Mindfulness?
Mindfulness is the ability to be fully present, aware of where we are and what we’re doing, and not overly reactive or overwhelmed by what’s going on around us. It's actually simple, just not easy. It takes practice. Mindfulness is the application of the skill developed in one's meditation practice. This skill has quickly become the most sought-after practice for leadership development and other peak performance disciplines. Studies reveal it enhances productivity, creativity, focus, and sustainability. Personal reports suggest even more amazing benefits such as:
- Develop greater focus and concentration
- Access "flow states" to perform optimally and more joyfully
- Respond more effectively to stress rather than reacting
- Decrease emotional resistance by disarming critical inner self talk
- Leverage personal strengths and expand your comfort zone with greater ease
- Increase your capacity to notice and learn from mistakes and failures
- Develop greater resilience by learning how to manage yourself in difficult situations
- Deepen your learning and increase your calm by becoming more present to the process and letting go of attachment to outcome
