OUR STORE

Coaching on the move becomes a perfect synthesis that combines physical and personal movement. It is a training oriented towards well-being and action that can help us achieve goalsby evolving our thinking. Our mind and body, in all its parts, are closely connected.

The walking Coaching Psychology(Coaching Psychology sessions that take place while walking, instead of in a static environment like an office). Walking outdoors promotes the release of endorphins, improving mood and reducing stress. Movement stimulates concentration and creativity, helping to find more effective solutions to problems). For this reason, I decided to move the regular sessions from the four walls of my office to a place where it is possible to perceive continuous change, in the place of landscapes, scents, sensations, walking calmly, in pleasant environments, in an unusual way, in good conversation, in conditions different from those in which one normally finds oneself.

The experience of coaching while walking facilitates the development of lateral thinking, which allows you to break out of patterns to find new angles of interpretation for dealing with situations. The flow of emotions and sensations is also facilitated and becomes more fluid with this process of movement.

Walking coaching (https://www.iscpresearch.org/?s=walking+coaching)

offers a unique combination of physical movement and

targeted conversation, with a series of benefits for physical and mental well-being.

Put together the

walk

and the “thought” is a combination that dates back to the ancient Greeks when they discussed philosophy and rhetoric under the porticoes.

Brought into the contemporary world, walking coaching combines movement with thought. Walking is relationship with others, encounter, exchange, and knowledge.

The journey on foot becomes a tool for slowly discovering places and experiences, giving oneself time to appreciate them and to reflect while walking. The walk itself is an important “generator of thought”: walking is an act of absolute freedom that goes beyond what our feet allow us to do. An automatic gesture, typically human, which today takes on an almost revolutionary value, open to the many intentions of the traveler because walking means opening up to the world. Walking helps us reclaim the most important thing we all seek, time.

The first step to take is to clarify both the starting situation and then the goal to be achieved. Next, a meeting time is set, walking shoes are put on, and the Walking begins, which usually lasts 1.5h - 2h. On the walk, we find a lot of silence. A constructive silence that encourages conscious reflection and often helps us find answers to our questions.

Here are some key advantages:

Mental and emotional benefits:

Reduction of stress and anxiety: the light physical activity of walking, especially in nature, lowers cortisol levels (the stress hormone) and stimulates the release of endorphins, which have positive effects on mood. The change of environment and the rhythm of walking can also help calm the mind and reduce mental clutter.

Mood improvement: walking can increase levels of serotonin and dopamine, neurotransmitters associated with happiness and pleasure. Walking regularly can relieve sadness and irritability.

Improvement of cognitive functions: physical activity, such as walking, increases blood flow to the brain, which can improve concentration, creativity, and problem-solving skills. Some studies even suggest that walking can significantly increase creativity.

Greater self-awareness and intuition: the relaxed and less formal atmosphere of a walking coaching session can facilitate open exploration of thoughts and feelings. The physical act of moving forward can also inspire psychological movement and a sense of progress.

Greater presence and honesty: walking side by side can reduce the intensity of direct eye contact, creating a more comfortable space for honest and deep conversations. It can also increase the coach's ability to listen to verbal and non-verbal cues.

Connection with nature: being outdoors can have a transformative effect on mindset and well-being, reducing stress and improving mood. Natural environments can offer new perspectives and increase clarity.

Sleep improvement: walking regularly and exposure to natural light can help regulate the circadian rhythm, improving sleep patterns and quality.

Physical benefits:

Improvement of cardiovascular health:walking strengthens the heart and lungs, lowers blood pressure and cholesterol levels, and improves overall cardiovascular fitness.

Weight control: walking burns calories and can help support healthy weight management.

Strengthening of the immune system: physical activity, including walking, can help improve the immune system.

In essence, walking Coaching Psychology harnesses the power of movement and nature to enhance the coaching experience, promoting a more holistic sense of well-being and facilitating personal growth in a dynamic and engaging way.

THEREFORE, IT REFERS TO A PRACTICE THAT COMBINES THE PHYSICAL MOVEMENT OF WALKING WITH AWARENESS OF THE PRESENT MOMENT, OFTEN ALSO CALLED "MINDFUL WALKING" OR "WALKING MEDITATION." INSTEAD OF FOCUSING ON THE DESTINATION OR INTENSE PHYSICAL EXERCISE, ATTENTION IS BROUGHT TO THE EXPERIENCE OF WALKING. WALKING IS A SIMPLE GESTURE THAT CAN EVEN BECOME MEDITATION.

WALKING COACHING IS PARTICULARLY SUITABLE WHEN FACING CHANGES, WHETHER THEY ARE ORGANIZATIONAL (MANAGING NEW PROJECTS, STRATEGIC DECISIONS FOR BUSINESS IMPROVEMENT, HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT, LEADERSHIP IMPROVEMENT) OR PERSONAL (TIME MANAGEMENT, OVERCOMING FEARS, GOALS TO ACHIEVE).

ON THE PATH WE SEEK
A GOAL TO ACHIEVE. IT DOES NOT NECESSARILY HAVE TO BE A FINAL DESTINATION, BUT IT CAN BE A PLACE OR A POINT FROM WHICH TO START AGAIN LATER. IMPROVING ONESELF, ACHIEVING WELL-BEING, HAPPINESS, AND SELF-REALIZATION IS POSSIBLE WITH THE HELP OF SOME SIMPLE COACHING TOOLS. WALKING, A POWERFUL METAPHOR FOR PROGRESS AND CHANGE, IS THE IDEAL CONDITION TO GAIN AWARENESS, STARTING FROM THE SIMPLEST AND AT THE SAME TIME MOST DIFFICULT ACTION: TAKING THE FIRST STEP. ANYONE CAN ACHIEVE CHANGE IF THEY HAVE A CLEAR GOAL, IF THEY HAVE STRONG MOTIVATION GENERATED BY NEED AND EMOTIONS; IF THEY HAVE THE COURAGE, ENTHUSIASM, AND STRENGTH TO NEVER GIVE UP, MAINTAINING TRUST EVEN IN THE MOST DIFFICULT MOMENTS, IF THEY ARE AWARE THAT SUCCESS DEPENDS ON THEIR ATTITUDE AND ACTIONS.

WHO IS THE EXPERIENCE FOR? FOR INDIVIDUALS BUT ALSO FOR A SMALL GROUP OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE A COMMON GOAL TO ACHIEVE, OR AN AGREEMENT TO REACH. IT CAN ALSO BE ENVISIONED FOR CORPORATE GROUPS WITH RESIDENTIAL PROGRAMS THAT ALTERNATE MOMENTS OF DISCUSSION, REFLECTION, WALKING IN NATURE AND OPEN SPACES.

THE PATH HELPS US TO
GROW AND ENHANCEOUR POTENTIAL,

HELPING US TO FIND MOTIVATION AND RESOURCES WITHIN OURSELVES.

GOALS AND BENEFITS:
REDUCTION OF STRESS AND ANXIETY: FOCUSING ON THE PRESENT THROUGH WALKING HELPS TO DISTRACT THE MIND FROM NEGATIVE THOUGHTS AND WORRIES.
INCREASED BODY AWARENESS: ATTENTION IS PAID TO THE PHYSICAL SENSATIONS OF WALKING, SUCH AS THE CONTACT OF THE FEET WITH THE GROUND, THE MOVEMENT OF THE MUSCLES, AND THE SWINGING OF THE ARMS.
IMPROVED CONCENTRATION: THE ACT OF CONTINUALLY BRINGING ATTENTION BACK TO WALKING STRENGTHENS THE ABILITY TO CONCENTRATE.
CONNECTION WITH THE ENVIRONMENT: YOU BECOME MORE AWARE OF THE SOUNDS, SMELLS, SIGHTS, AND TACTILE SENSATIONS OF THE SURROUNDING ENVIRONMENT.
IMPROVED MOOD: LIKE PHYSICAL EXERCISE IN GENERAL, MINDFUL WALKING CAN RELEASE ENDORPHINS AND IMPROVE EMOTIONAL WELL-BEING.
GREATER SENSE OF CALM AND INNER PEACE: THE SLOW RHYTHM AND ATTENTION TO THE PRESENT PROMOTE A SENSE OF TRANQUILITY.
POTENTIAL IMPROVEMENT IN SLEEP: REDUCED STRESS AND LIGHT PHYSICAL ACTIVITY CAN CONTRIBUTE TO BETTER SLEEP.

MINDFUL WALKING TRAINING TECHNIQUES:

FOCUS ON BREATHING: SYNCHRONIZE YOUR BREATHING WITH YOUR STEPS. FOR EXAMPLE, INHALE FOR A CERTAIN NUMBER OF STEPS AND EXHALE FOR THE SAME NUMBER. PAY ATTENTION TO THE SENSATION OF AIR ENTERING AND LEAVING THE BODY.

AWARENESS OF THE FEET: FOCUS ON THE SENSATION OF EACH STEP: LIFTING THE FOOT, MOVING FORWARD, TOUCHING THE GROUND. NOTICE THE CONTACT WITH THE SURFACE.

BODY AWARENESS: BRING ATTENTION TO THE DIFFERENT PARTS OF THE BODY INVOLVED IN THE MOVEMENT, OBSERVING THE SENSATIONS WITHOUT JUDGMENT.

SLOW AND DELIBERATE STEPS: SLOW DOWN YOUR WALKING PACE AND FULLY FOCUS ON EACH MOVEMENT.

ENGAGEMENT OF THE SENSES: PAY ATTENTION TO THE SOUNDS, SMELLS, COLORS, AND TACTILE SENSATIONS PRESENT IN THE SURROUNDING ENVIRONMENT. WELCOME THEM WITHOUT JUDGMENT.

COUNTING STEPS: COUNT YOUR STEPS FROM 1 TO 10 AND THEN BACKWARDS TO MAINTAIN FOCUS.

DURING THE WALK, SHIFT YOUR ATTENTION BETWEEN YOUR BREATH, FEET, BODY, AND THE SURROUNDING ENVIRONMENT.

WALK AT A NATURAL PACE: DO NOT FORCE YOUR STEP, BUT FIND A COMFORTABLE RHYTHM.

BE PATIENT: AT FIRST, THE MIND MAY WANDER EASILY. GENTLY BRING YOUR ATTENTION BACK TO WALKING EVERY TIME YOU NOTICE YOU'VE BECOME DISTRACTED.

DO NOT JUDGE: SIMPLY OBSERVE THOUGHTS AND SENSATIONS WITHOUT CRITICIZING THEM.

WALKING COACHING PSYCHOLOGY CAN BE EASILY INTEGRATED INTO DAILY LIFE, TRANSFORMING A SIMPLE WALK INTO AN OPPORTUNITY TO CULTIVATE MINDFULNESS AND IMPROVE OVERALL WELL-BEING.
