MINDFULNESS AND COACHING: PROMOTING THE DEVELOPMENT OF PRESENCE AND FULL AWARENESS

Journal Title: MLS Psychology Research - Year 2018, Vol 1, Issue 1

Abstract

Mindfulness and Coaching are two relatively recent disciplines that have developed in parallel during the last decades. More and more coaches are interested in the practice of Mindfulness, both as a technique for their own personal development, as a tool to offer their coachees. Our purpose with the present article is to offer a review of the literature on the possible utilities that the implementation of Mindfulness in the field of Coaching can have. To this end, the information has been organized, initially presenting the essential elements of both disciplines, as well as the similarities and differences between them. Subsequently, the possible utilities of this implementation are raised, with special emphasis on its effect on processes and key competences for the effectiveness of Coaching, such as presence, awareness and the relationship of Coaching. Finally, the conclusions of this work are presented. In short, Mindfulness can contribute to develop in a practical way the competences of presence and conscience that characterize the authentic Coaching. In this way Mindfulness contributes to strengthen the relationship of Coaching, that relationship between the coach and the coachee in which this can feel felt, connect with their own resources and generate the changes that allow them to develop their potential. In this way Mindfulness can be a powerful tool to contribute to the well-being of coaches, as well as that of the coachees and, therefore, that of society as a whole.
