Testimonials

“During a particularly intense period at work, coaching with Beate helped me slow down and reconnect with my inner balance. Her approach is both insightful and practical. I left each session with a clearer mind and concrete tools to support my well-being.”

"Beate combines deep empathy with practical tools that can be applied immediately in daily work. Our coaching sessions helped me become more aware of how I respond to pressure and how I can lead with more calm and clarity.”

"Working with Beate helped me regain clarity during a very demanding phase of my career. Her calm presence and thoughtful questions created a space where I could step back, reflect and reconnect with what truly matters. I now approach challenges with much greater steadiness and perspective.”

Deep gratitude for the 15- months training journey. It's been deeply nourishing period for me.

Looking back, it's been a symbolic time embodying everything life offers : impermanence, interdependence, interconnectedness of community.

I'm deeply grateful for your presence support guidance and teachings. I'm also deeply grateful for our supportive and loving group of friends that have grown individually and collectively together.

Many, many thanks for the fantastic stress management workshop. All the colleagues were really interested throughout and the important tools and know-how you gave us were a real eye opening moment.

The stress management session facilitated by Beate was a perfect pause for our team to reflect and consider more deeply our individual approaches to looking after ourselves and one another. It was, for some, a great reminder of good practice in mindfulness and for others a perfect introduction. It drew us together and also gave us new energy and perspectives for maintaining a healthy workplace.

It was a great day to immerse yourself to get to know what mindfulness is or if you need to do more practice with other people. 

Each nourishment day allows me to re-connect with myself, and re-discover some mindfulness practice. It brings my mind to “now” and “here”. 

A Day of Nourishment really helps me to be in the moment and be grateful of my life and myself. It calms my mind and inner voice. 

Taking a day away from our busy life, our fast paced life, helps getting back to what is important: that is you! You are as important as everything else, if not more important than your job. No one can replace you in your life. 

This nourishment day helped me to refill my batteries, stop for a moment, immerse in mindful silence and see everything from different perspective. This day helped me to discover again how to explore difficulty and see until when I can accept it.  

Retirement brought unexpected challenges. After a long and fulfilling career, I suddenly felt without direction and disconnected.

Through coaching with Beate, I gradually rediscovered meaning, explored new interests and built new social connections. I now feel much more energised and engaged in this new chapter of life.

I began coaching during a challenging period in my life, experiencing burnout after a tough situation at work. during covid and with two small children at home. Through this process, I gradually gained more self-assurance and learned to assert myself by setting boundaries—something entirely new for me. The coaching taught me that self-care goes beyond simple indulgences like massages and nature walks; it involves establishing limits. Now, I'm more attuned to my stress signals and have a newfound respect for my own boundaries.

'Coaching with Beate is so valuable, and it feels a bit like having a conversation with your wiser future self. She is very insightful and kind, has a deep empathy and understanding, and a variety of tools depending on the situation at hand.'

This course  has changed my life! It has helped me to focus in the present moment without judging and has given me the chance to learn ways to do it such as meditation, body scan or yoga, among others. I highly recommend it.

I greatly enjoyed the course and took away a lot of insights. The course helped me develop new perspectives and techniques to deal with everyday challenges of life and stress. Lorinda is a great teacher and I can fully recommend the course.

Overall a great experience. Its a great way to detach from daily life and do a digital detox, and to go deeper within yourself. I particularly liked connecting with the senses, being outside, deepening my practice and experiencing something new every time. I would recommend it to both beginners and more experienced meditators.

My aim was to practice again. This is what I did and I enjoyed it a lot. 

This was my first mindfulness retreat and I found it was perfect for me - not too intense but definitely challenging. Highly recommended

The retreat was a gift to myself, to find inner calm and peace and spend some quiet time away from day-to-day crazyness! It turned out this was one of the best gifts I made myself.

The training which we received on mindfulness and neuroplasticity has been transformational for our organisation and for us as individuals. It has helped us to be more discerning about our priorities, be more aware of our triggers and stressors, and to apply real techniques to reduce anxiety, build confidence and provide clarity for decisions to be taken. We are grateful to Beate and Brussels Mindfulness for accompanying our staff on a one-year learning journey with effects that last!

Silence is a beautiful way of sharing, I did not expect to make friends without using words, but it happened :) .  Will definitely come back…

The (Dongelberg) location is beautiful, simple and close to nature; it helps you change perspective on what is really important, what it is that you actually need. Viannou’s cuisine (and kitchen) is a joy and a treat for the senses.

My first retreat and quite an experience.  A great team of teachers, kind, generous, mindful to the needs of the group. Beate is a mentor, knowledgeable, intuitive and flexible; she is very good at explaining the essence in a way that speaks to all and adapts the programme and meditations to the group dynamics.

I appreciated the introduction and explanation, also the sharing and group experience.
