I am incredibly passionate about raising people's awareness of their own biopsychological processes and connections. A key goal is to not only acknowledge the close interaction between the psyche and the autonomic nervous system theoretically, but also to present it visually and experientially. Using objectively measurable parameters, physiological processes are made visible that normally occur unconsciously and are therefore not consciously controlled. Transparency through biofeedback directly and trainably promotes self-regulation skills in many areas and sustainably imparts concrete, practical skills for constructive stress management, performance optimization, and health promotion. My previous experience has been gained primarily in the medical and psychological fields, mostly in my own practice. I therefore particularly appreciate that this scientifically and medically grounded discipline is also being made accessible to a wider audience in a preventative context at VITALIS Coaching & Mentoring. This allows it to be used early and effectively—as it ideally should be—and not only when a critical point has already been reached. For me personally, an HRV profile has become a crucial decision-making tool, and client feedback reports lasting effectiveness or insightful "aha" moments in everyday life. I wish our clients precisely these experiences as well.
