What is Wingwave Coaching?

He Wingwave coaching Is a method for intervention in healthy people who present some problem of stress caused by some experience or personal belief. It was developed in the 1990s by psychologists Cora Besser-Siegmund and Harry Siegmund

Both founded the undefinedBesser-Siegmund-Institut in Hamburg more than 20 years ago, where the couple develops different approaches of therapy and coaching, in addition to writing numerous books.

Characteristics of wingwave coaching

If we translate the word into Spanish by dividing it into two we get wing and wave. I explain to you what the authors wanted to point out with this:

• Wing : It refers to the beating of the wings of a butterfly. There is a theory postulated by Edwar Norton, who says that a small force resembling the flapping of a butterfly can trigger a great hurricane at the other end of the world if that flutter occurs at an appropriate time and place. chaos theory. You may wonder why I call this theory; Patience, I'll explain later.
• Wave : This part refers to brain waves. We could consider this point as the objective of the application of the method.

The wingwave method is designed to release emotions that have not been managed effectively, so that you understand me better, serves to evoke some emotion or memory that caused an experience, and then manage it with resources that were not at that time Available to the person.

That is, at the time of the event the person had own resources, but they were"deactivated", which means that the wingave method aims to reactivate them to reduce and eliminate the stress that was generated at that moment and that is still residual in some area Of the person's life.

Let's take an example:

Imagine that a girl named Ana, some time ago, maintained a relationship, in which she was happy and happy. One afternoon, her partner proposes to take a walk around the park and Ana accepts. While walking, his partner confesses that he no longer feels anything for her and wants to leave the relationship.

The relationship ends, and Ana is desolate and sad.

Time has already passed, and Ana knows someone else with whom she wants to start a new relationship, but there is something that prevents her, and it is the fear that they will hurt her again.

In this case the wingave method would be used for Ana to stop feeling that negative emotion before the future expectation of a new relationship, unblocking the fear that seems to have been stuck?? In his mind and freeing it from the residual stress still caused by the memory of that experience.

What components does it integrate?

Wingwave integrates 3 components, with different objectives but always directed towards the global purpose of bringing the person to a greater Psychological well-being .

They are the following:

• Test O-ring : This test created by Dr. Yoshiaki Omura. It is a test that is characterized as a form of Kinesiology Applied and patented in alternative medicine. Measures muscle strength against reactive stimuli as follows:

The person forms a ring with his thumb and heart, the professional through affirmation sentences test if applying a minimum out can separate the fingers, thus obtaining information about the reaction that causes a certain phrase in the person.

• NLP : Are the acronyms of Neurolinguistic Programming. Technique created by John Grinder and Richard Bandler. It is based on several concepts:

1. The neurological system regulates our organism
2. Language determines how we interact with others.
3. Our programming determines the models of the world we create.

Neurolinguistic Programming therefore describes the fundamental dynamics between Mind, language and influence of its interaction in our behavior and organism.

• EMDR : Desensitization and reprocessing through eye movement. Technique whose author is Francine Saphiro. This part of the method consists of getting the person to perform eye movements accompanied by acoustic, tactile or visual stimulation, to achieve bilateral stimulation at the brain level. The technique is based on the fact that performing this stimulation helps to reprocess information that at some point was blocked or badly stored in the mind.

Now, dear reader, you may understand why I told you about Chaos theory before, because you can understand that with simple interventions, according to this method, blocked aspects can be changed in the human mind.

When can wingwave be used?

In general, the wingwave can help you integrate new information into your mind, enabling a change in the level of adaptation of the person to their environment and their new experiences. Specifically, some application examples can be:

• Prepare mentally for maximum performance, such as a major test, a sports test??
• Activate personal resources when needed.
• Implement changes that may be difficult for the individual.
• Improve skills and skills that already existed to achieve the desired performance.
• Dissolve mental blocks.
• Help to reprocess at the mental level disappointments and personal and professional failures.
• Increase self-confidence by changing patterns of thoughts that are not helpful to the person.
