Lotus Loan-Thu Nguyen

I used to be a film director/producer making documentaries for British and international televisions. The river of life has taken me home. I am now a Mindfulness trainer and coach.

I work with organizations and individuals who want to reduce stress, improve work performance and gain greater satisfaction in work and life.

Mindfulness is an ancient practice found in Eastern philosophies such as Buddhism, Taoism and Yoga. It has recently been taken on wholeheartedly by the West as it has been scientifically proven one of the most effective tools for healing and well-being.

Mindfulness has been adapted into well-researched, secular programmes such as Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), and Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT). MBCT has achieved the gold standard of evidence in the UK, namely the recommendation by the National Institute of Clinical Excellence (NICE).

I provide Mindfulness-based coaching for one-to-one sessions and workshops for groups and companies. My interactive Mindfulness programme blends features of Western psychotherapies with the Mindfulness techniques of Buddhism.

These are some of the main benefits that can come from practicing Mindfulness regularly:

* Develop a sense of calm
* Manage pressure more easily
* Improve your concentration and your performance at work
* Improve your tolerance in difficult situations
* Find a closer connection with other people
* Feel more alive on a day-to-day basis

I help people re-connect with their inner-selves and tap into their own resources so that they can unleash their power in order to live a rich, full and meaningful life whilst handling the stress and pain effectively.

Here is what Kristyna Kinstova says about my training:

“After following Lotus´s training sessions, I have learned how to be aware of myself. My perceptions of my life and my own feelings have changed. I can now handle my worries, understand myself and smile to life. Thanks to Lotus, my everyday life has become an everyday joy.”

Mindfulness is very powerful. It changes people's lives. It has changed my life. I am passionate about sharing it with others in order to help them have peace and joy whilst effectively dealing with inevitable challenges in life.
