Mindfulness-Based Coaching
Mindfulness-based coaching is therefore not revolutionary; rather, it is evolutionary. It taps into ancient wisdom and recent findings in neuroscience on how the brain operates. It stimulates the potential of change, from what in the past was believed to be fixed and hardwired into our brains to a conscious life of authenticity.
Changing any habit or behaviour is challenging. Increasing one’s self-awareness through mindful practices is proving to be a powerful catalyst to sustainably improve well-being and performance, with the support of a professional coach. This often becomes a strong catalyst to address personal development , growth and self awareness objectives identified in the coaching relationship.
