NLP-Podcast 125: Nandana and Karl Nielsen on Mindfulness

Why is mindfulness so important in combination with NLP? This question is being addressed by the founders of the "NLP & Coaching Institute Berlin" and the associations IN and ICI ("The International Association of NLP Institutes" and "The International Association of Coaching Institutes") Nandana Nielsen and Karl Nielsen. In NLP seminars and training, body awareness is cultivated: participants become aware of their bodies and feel what emotions and thoughts arise. The mindfulness program by Jon Kabat-Zinn includes numerous exercises such as yoga, meditation, and body scan that sharpen mindfulness. Following the motto "Become the observer of your thoughts!" specific health issues are to be resolved. Nandana and Karl Nielsen also want to work with focused attention in NLP and combine different techniques. "How about a Mindfulness Practitioner with an additional eight days of mindfulness training?", asks Karl Nielsen. "It's about establishing contact with oneself to solve problems. Mindfulness is an invitation to that! Karl Nielsen wants to motivate others to develop more awareness and responsibility for planet Earth. A mindful approach to the world and a healthy lifestyle are the first steps in this direction. How does mindfulness and NLP help us with that?

There are numerous techniques, such as the Milton Model, Milton Language, and the Meta Model, that help us specifically overcome illnesses like anxiety, depression, and burnout. With NLP, Jon Kabat-Zinn's mindfulness program can be intensified in a new way. As an insight into the world of "Mindfulness," Karl Nielsen recommends the foundational book "Full Catastrophe Living" by Jon Kabat-Zinn. "We can only save the world if we grow beyond our beliefs, if we pause and look at what we are thinking and where the thoughts come from. With NLP, we can create this awareness!", says Karl Nielsen.
