Self Inquiry is a mindfulness healing method, optimal for people with many tensions, fears and psychosomatic complaints. I like simple, practical and effective... an activity that you should be able to explain to a 10 year old... Self Inquiry is a method to achieve and maintain a healthy balance, which should actually be learned at school, practical, simple and effective. The method is based on the principle that the signals we receive from the body are aimed at sending you to a happy, healthy and long life. In spiritual circles this collection of signals is also called 'the internal Guru'. Just as a wound on your finger heals on its own provided the right conditions are created, the body also heals the blockades and imbalances on an energetic, emotional and mental level. The body communicates with you continuously, through pain, tension, pressure, but also through love, inspiration, curiosity and zest for life. Although the body helps us to be happy, few of us Westerners have learned to listen to the body and act in line with its signals. Soooo... back to basics! From my own experience I know how tempting it can be to look for happiness outside of yourself and at the same time ignore the signals of the body. 15 years ago I ended up in a Burn Out, a very strong form of communication from the body, that it was really time for rest and reflection. The good thing is that you don't have to let it get to that point... During the lessons you will learn: - how you can strengthen the contact with yourself, with the body, with the signals from the body and how you can translate the signals into daily life and - how to live in alignment with your deepest truth, with your personal boundaries and in alignment with your deeper desires I give you the tools to do your own research and to improve. And in the meantime I will guide you through guided Self-Inquiry sessions to promote further deepening... the combination of self-practice and periodic guided sessions gives the best results.

There are times in our lives when we feel stuck, out of place, sad. Moments where we perceive that we need and want a change within our existence, because the present that we are living does not satisfy us and makes us feel uncomfortable. So we have ideas, desires, dreams that would allow us to get away from this reality that we don't like, we can't stand it and it makes us feel unhappy, but we lack the courage to make a decision and the fear of leaving our comfort zone doesn't allow us to go beyond, where happiness awaits us. So we end up in contexts and situations that create suffering for us, just because they became our little world, our bubble, where we feel protected and defended, but from where we want to flee the furthest away. possible. Situations like these that make us sad can be several: staying in toxic relationships (partners, family, friends, work); not knowing how to say no; not being able to set limits; difficulty living in the present; fear of leaving the comfort zone; inability to follow our dreams and goals; a shyness that prevents us from being ourselves. All this and much more prevents us from achieving happiness, being the best version of ourselves and making our dreams come true. How can we achieve all this? Let me introduce myself, my name is Nicola, I am a certified Psychologist, Mental Coach and Emotional Coach. I strongly believe that Coaching is a very powerful tool, with which a person can be accompanied to achieve their desires and turn their objectives and goals into reality. We all have the right to be happy; we all have the right to fulfill our dreams; We all deserve to find again the capacities and abilities that live within us, and that have remained silent since we were children, but that want to burn like a flame that wants to reach the sky. So, we begin to transform and I have... In I want; we erase the false beliefs that do not allow us to flourish; let's put ourselves first in our lives; We do not listen to criticism or the opinions of others, but our own intuition; And last, but not least, let's love each other very, very much, because we are the most important person in our lives. I would love to be able to accompany you on this journey of growth, and to be able to offer you a safe and protected space, where you could freely express your emotions and feelings, without feeling judged and hurt. A space where you could perceive empathy and active listening and achieve your goals and objectives, leaving aside the part of you that is not allowing it to do so and thus acquire new learning and above all get in touch with the part of your personality that from time, ask to emerge. Because starting is already being halfway there and it is beyond fear that we can find happiness.
