How did you get into mindfulness and why did you stick with it?
What role does mindfulness play in your life?

I met a mindfulness teacher whose approach—combining neuroscientific theory with lived practice as a psychologist—immediately fascinated and resonated with me. Since then, I have tried out various mindfulness modalities and developed them further for myself, with a consistently high level of fascination.

I experience mindfulness as an important basis that enables me to perceive myself and my surroundings on a deeper level and to gain new insights every day in my dealings with myself and others.

What is your motivation/purpose for your work as a MOMENTUM trainer?

As a MOMENTUM trainer, I help others access mindfulness and support them in their journey—with curiosity and joy. In a way that is individually helpful: according to the needs on site and the respective pace. I am always deeply moved by the new perspectives and opportunities that emerge, as well as the positive effects—both for individuals and for teams and organizations as a whole.

As a MOMENTUM trainer, where do you most clearly see the importance and effectiveness of mindfulness training for companies?

I can see how the program works from the reactions and feedback from participants during and after the MOMENTUM training. Over the years as a MOMENTUM trainer, I have witnessed countless instances where the program has profoundly enhanced participants' awareness and experience of daily life—fostering greater clarity, self-efficacy, resilience, and a more mindful, constructive approach to themselves and others.

What do you think makes the MOMENTUM program unique?

MOMENTUM uniquely combines cutting-edge scientific foundations with practical applications tailored to the business world. It blends interactive trainer-led sessions with self-directed, flexible learning via the MOMENTUM app.
