NLP Podcast 58: Spirituality and Mindfulness

Willi Kiechle is a Gestalt therapist, yoga teacher, hero's journey guide, and has a wealth of meditation experience. In his work as a trainer, educator, and seminar leader, his aim is to work holistically on the level of the body, feelings, and spirituality. In Gestalt therapy, a high level of attention is very important, as it allows all feelings, thoughts, and emotions to be recognized. "When I have a high awareness of what is showing up right now and am willing to accept it, then what is relevant shows itself," explains Willi Kiechle. In Gestalt therapy, unconscious behavior patterns are uncovered and blockages are resolved through a very fine awareness.  

With Mindfulness to a Better World

"The world suffers from the self-centeredness of the individual," says Willi Kiechle. At this point, the approaches of Gestalt therapy are helpful. Because when all people are vigilant and attentive, they do not only pay attention to themselves. Every person should ask themselves the following questions, for example: How can I allow other people to flow into my emotional world? How much do I let it affect me when others suffer? Just by asking these questions, self-centeredness is reduced. To make the world a better place, it is of great importance to change perspectives and to empathize with other people.

Hero's Journey

Willi Kiechle, together with Susanne Lypold and Tobias Konermann, leads our Hero's Journey series. The goal of these seminars is initially for participants to allow changes to make their lives more vibrant. In the Hero's Journey seminar, you will feel that change is possible and how this change affects your life. Building on that, you will learn in the Shadow Seminar how to accept your shadow and transform it into enriching parts of your personality. In the Lover's Journey, you will work on your ability to relate and on your inner images of men and women. In these three seminars, you will get to know yourself in a completely new way and thus support your personal development. In addition to the Shadow Seminar and the Lover's Journey, there are also the two follow-up seminars "Family Circles" and "Death and Resurrection." However, these two seminars have not yet been offered by us. In the complete podcast episode, you will learn more about the Hero's Journey seminars and what a successful life means to Willi Kiechle. He also gives some tips on how to bring more happiness and satisfaction into your life.
