What is mindfulness?
Mindfulness arises out of being in the
present moment with an open, curious and
non-judgemental awareness.
It is a deep inner resource that is available
and patiently waiting to be discovered and
used in terms of learning and growing.
Mindfulness Training
Training in mindfulness empowers us to
move from “autopilot” reactions to a
conscious response in our every day life’s;
not just happening accidentally or in some
special moments.
With mindfulness you live your life more
fully, being in touch with your inner essence
and your experience in this moment.
Advantages of a Regular Mindfulness Practice
Neuroplasticity proves that, in deed, "an old dog can learn new tricks". There have been
several representative studies that show that we can actively and sustainably influence and
change our brain patterns through mindfuless meditation in the course of only 8 weeks (see
MBSR).
Practicing on a regular basis has positive effects on our health and tolerance to stress, such
as:
•
Reducing anxiety, depression, burn-out and irritability
•
Increasing memory performance and improving response times
•
Enhancing mental and physical endurance
•
Strengthening emotional resilience, i.e. the ability to cope with setbacks of life
•
Increasing empathy and emotional intelligence which lead to enhanced social skills
•
Strengthening the immune system which prevents colds, flu-like infections and
other diseases
•
Decreasing indicators of chronic stress (e.g. high blood pressure, insomnia)
•
Reducing symptoms of severe diseases (e.g. cancer, chronic pain)
•
Supportive treatment of drug / alcohol and smoking addiction
