Managers are the pillars of a company. If they are well trained and have all the necessary skills to lead their team effectively and, above all, healthily, they not only perform well themselves,
but enable each individual employee to strengthen their strengths.
In particular, topics such as self-reflection and healthy leadership are central to our offerings.
Individuals
Are employees
acutely affected, coaching or therapy sessions can help to specifically address and resolve individual issues.
Key aspects here include good emotional regulation, balancing challenges and resources, and training in necessary soft skills. Personal blocks in thinking, feeling, and actingn can be solved here and replaced by new, powerful patterns.
MENTAL HEALTH
What is that actually?
Why is mental health
actually so important?
The human brain has two functions:
It stores important information in the cerebral cortex with the goal of making the most accurate predictions possible. Furthermore, the brain serves as the control center for all body systems, such as the respiratory system, cardiovascular system, and immune system.
But what if the brain, the most important organ in the human body, loses its natural balance?
As in the entire body, disorders can also occur in the brain, which can lead to symptoms such as overexertion, concentration and memory problems, irritability and even anxiety disorders or depression.
In addition, impaired brain regulation can also lead to physical symptoms such as sleep disorders, muscle pain, chronic inflammatory processes, and even burnout, heart attack, stroke, and sudden hearing loss.
Maintaining and promoting mental health and preventing mental disorders therefore depends on the following factors:
- Cognitive flexibility and problem-solving skills
- Powerful handling of changes and uncertainties (VUCA)
- Regulatory ability of mental and holistic body processes (homeostasis)
- Understand yourself and others better
The result for the employees, the entire team, the managers and the organization is:
- Improved employee retention and recruitment
- Fewer sick days due to mental disorders
- Training of future soft skills and proactively shaping the future
