However, to follow a Mindfulness Class schedule in daily life can be a challenge. At NL MINDFUL we adapt the class to the personal needs of our participants. You can get your emails in a slower rhythm and we offer participants a break of 2 or 4 weeks after the first part of the Mindfulness class.

WHY MINDFULNESS?

Why Mindfulness? To face daily stress with more inner calm and to rebalance faster after stressful life events.To be prepared for life and to gain more inner Resilience.Mindfulness is not a Psychotherapy, but it can be a good idea to visit a Mindfulness class when you are waiting for your Therapy or alongside a Psychotherapy, talk to your Therapist, Doctor or get in touch with us!

STRESS CONTROL WITH NL MINDFUL

Stress is an ongoing topic in our life. Minor stress can add up during the day and acute stress can become chronic stress. Hyperarousal may become a chronic state of body and mind with difficulties to sleep, concentrate or relax, with anxiety symptoms, high blood pressure or digestion problems. Exhaustion may follow any time soon.

Mindfulness science studies showed: An improved regulation of emotion, a reduction of stress and a positive effect on our Immune System. Mindfulness has a positive impact on Anxiety, Insomnia and is part of a variety of clinical treatments. Brief daily Mindfulness Mediation enhance attention, memory, mood and emotional regulation in non-experienced meditators.

People under stress, anxiety or pain breathe more quickly and less regularly. Meditators have a slower breath, indicating reduced automatic response, better mood and improved health. We therefore integrate Mindful Breathing techniques in  your daily life for a better self-regulation, concentration and for more inner balance. The gentle Rising and Falling of the breath stimulates the Parasympathetic nervous system and therefore has a calming effect on body and mind.
