wingwave® coaching

What is wingwave coaching?

wingwave® coaching is a performance and emotion coaching that quickly and noticeably leads to a reduction of performance stress and an increase in mental fitness, creativity and conflict stability in just a few sessions. The techniques used are based on the latest findings of brain research.

Three core elements in the wingwave coaching method are

• bilateral hemisphere stimulation of the brain
  (i.e., visual, auditory, or tactile left-right stimulation techniques).
• the myostatic test   
  (for the targeted planning of the coaching process and as an objective success control)
• specific NLC techniques - Neurolinguistic Coaching
  (resource- and solution-oriented communication techniques to support the coaching process)

Procedure and mode of action of wingwave coaching

Sometimes events are so impressive, formative or stressful that they are not fully processed by the brain. These can then really block us or trigger the stressful memories in similar situations and then trigger unpleasant stress stimulus or behavior patterns in us again. This can even develop into anxiety with sometimes physical symptoms. These can also be very distant events from childhood that are still happening today in a similar way or trigger corresponding feelings in us.

The Myostatikt test (muscle feedback instrument) is used to determine the exact trigger of the stressful circumstance (stress imprinting) or unpleasant emotion. After appropriate preparation of the coachee (client), bilateral hemisphere stimulation begins. Here the coachee's gaze is guided by the coach through rapid hand movements.

This seemingly simple basic intervention has the effect of triggering blocked processing mechanisms in the brain and stimulating the processing of "stress imprints" (stressful memories). We call this process "awake" REM phase simulation (Rapid Eye Movement). Such REM phases (rapid eye movements during dream sleep) occur in every human being, because they serve for the natural processing of daily experiences.

In EMDR ("Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing"), where the above-mentioned stimulation technique by means of guided eye movements has been used since the 1980s, it has been found that this processing process can also be stimulated in the waking state.

wingwave often leads the coachee to a reduction of the stress-irritation symptoms in only 3 to 5 sessions. These can be stressful thoughts, unpleasant memories and experiences, or blocking emotions and beliefs (e.g. one's own attitude and belief patterns), which are processed and changed with wingave. Coachees therefore often report an increase in conflict stability, mental fitness, better performance and more creativity.

History of the development of wingwave coaching

In the late 1980s, various coaching coaches and therapists in the U.S. explored the use of "awake REM phases" for the emotional regulation of debilitating stress memories. From this, the American psychotherapist Francine Shapiro developed what is now known as EMDR for the treatment of post-traumatic stress.

Bilateral hemisphere stimulation in wingwave coaching was borrowed from EMDR. Translated, EMDR stands for a desensitization and reprocessing of trauma sequelae through eye movements. EMDR is recognized as a scientifically based psychotherapy method, as the effectiveness of this technique has been proven by numerous studies.

Due to the already very good treatment successes with the EMDR techniques - among other things up to 80-90% with post-traumatic stress disorders, fears and other stress stimulus reaction patterns - the short-term coaching method "wingwave" was developed from it. Also with wingwave enormous successes and the same positive changes could be achieved and proven with psychically and physically healthy people.

wingwave is a protected method and is successfully used today in business and personal everyday life, in competitive sports, in pedagogy and didactics, in the health sector as well as in artistic circles.

As with all coaching, wingwave coaching also involves an agreement on goals, coaching discussions and performance reviews.

For whom is wingwave coaching suitable?

wingwave coaching is suitable for all people in a normal, healthy mental and physical condition. This means that psychological stability and resilience is a prerequisite, as is usually the case in coaching, because wingwave is not psychotherapy and cannot replace it.

Areas of application for wingwave coaching

• Stress imprinting, negative experiences, performance stress.
  Ex: due to slights, conflicts, separations, defeats, financial "dry spells," etc.
• Fears with or without physical symptoms
  Ex: in case of test anxiety, speech anxiety, fear of flying, dental anxiety; after accidents or injuries.
• Indulgence topics
  Ex: overindulgence, ravenous appetite attacks
• negative emotions and behavior patterns
  Ex: jealousy, negative spirals, repetitive argument topics.
• Resource Coaching
  e.g. for creativity enhancement, self-image coaching, performance improvement
• Belief Coaching
  e.g. reduction of performance-limiting convictions (beliefs), euphoria traps

The basis for a good coaching is sympathy and trust between coach and coachee. For this reason I offer you a non-binding initial consultation for CHF 60.- (pupils/students CHF 45.-).
