STRESS & TENSION COMPLAINTS

Stress is by definition not unhealthy. A certain amount of stress helps us to function properly, as long as there is a period of recovery afterwards. But what if the stress lasts too long or is too intense? With persistent stress, you will start to suffer from stress complaints that will manifest themselves both physically and mentally.
These complaints are our body's alarm signals that it is high time for rest and recovery. It is therefore extremely important to learn to recognize these signals and to tackle the cause

BURN OUT

If you have persistent stress complaints and do not pay attention to this, the result can be a burnout. And the name itself describes it best: you feel completely burned out physically and mentally. The causes of burnout lie mainly, but never exclusively, in the work situation. Burnout is always caused by a combination of several factors. You don't feel well mentally anymore, but the main thing is mental and physical fatigue. Burnout is an energy disorder.

PERSONAL GROWTH

The speed at which technology and society are evolving is hallucinatory. A continuous connection to everything and everyone ensures that we are bombarded by a barrage of updates, information, questions and expectations. We have 50 apps to find our way, but we feel more lost than ever.
Personal growth is about a fundamental, permanent change that you experience as a person. This change, or self-development, will make us think differently about and look at our lives, which will make us happier.

At the start of each session, we first take a look at how you are doing and what you need at that moment.

As a guideline for coaching I use an 8-step plan, with 3 overarching phases to recovery.

Phase 1: Recharging

You learn to accept your physical and mental state
You gain insight into your complaints and sources of stress
You restore your condition: relax, sleep, move,
nutrition, etc

Phase 2: Solve

You learn to worry less and deal with emotions
You find solutions for your sources of stress
You discover whether your talents, values and mission are with you
fit work

Phase 3: Re-integration

You prepare to return to work
You pick up your tasks and gradually resume your roles

No two people are the same, and that includes their stress and burnout experiences. That's why I call this step-by-step plan asa guideline. The basis for a personal approachtailored to your specific needs that addresses your unique situation.

Where personal development is about acquiring knowledge and skills, personal growth is about a fundamental, permanent change that you want to make as a person. A change, or self-development, that is noticeable in all areas of your life.

With personal growth coaching, we first of all look together for "where the shoe pinches".

Where does the feeling of being lost come from? What makes you feel stuck?

This search automatically leads to a return to your individuality, your values and norms. By mapping these out, we can then draw up a growth plan together around all the aspects that you consider important.

We work for you, with the necessary tools and insights, towards holistic wellness.

Every form of coaching starts withan intake interview.

In this first introductory meeting we get to know each other, I listen to your story and your expectations. With this I try to form a picture of whether coaching is the most suitable guidance for you.

What exactly do I mean by this?
Stress and burnout coaching is not psychotherapy, and as a coach I do not make diagnoses.

However, I can help you with the necessary documents for referrals if necessary.

Do we hit it off?

Then we agree together how we work at your pace on your further process.

I introduce the principles of Japonism and Zen methodology in my approach to help you fight stress and burnout and/or promote your personal growth.

Zen methodology
The idea of this is the simplicity and straightforwardness in understanding reality and acting in the "here and now". An ancient form of traditional wisdom, which has influenced countless people around the world. At its core is a personal relationship with your own mind and a higher, undefined entity outside yourself. "Being Zen" is essentially being in a state of peace with your own thoughts, and being self-aware of your place in the universe.

Japonism
You gain new insights by discovering new things. By broadening your horizons, you learn new ways to approach and analyze situations. Japonism explores the art of finding contentment to live a happier, healthier, and more thoughtful life.
I like to teach you principles such as ikigai (purpose), shinrinyoku (forest bathing), kintsugi (repairing broken ceramics with gold) orkaizen (habit-forming techniques). Or even learning to look at life with a wabi sabi mindset (the beauty of imperfection & the transitory nature of life).
