Transformational and Life Coaching
Our specialist Life Coaches and Counsellors help individuals get to where they want to be in all areas of their personal and business lives. We strongly believe that every individual has the ability to reach their full potential and coaching/counselling can help to uncover your unique resources and strengths that will get you there.
Transformational coaching/counselling challenges your limiting beliefs and assumptions in a non-judgmental and compassionate way, it is results driven and it helps you build a sustainable plan to maintain the changes achieved during the coaching process.
We help clients understand and become aware of how their daily life choices can be fundamental to building one’s own path towards personal and professional success. Through this process, inner resources and powerful insights are uncovered, which will equip clients to overcome any current and future obstacles.
Coaching is provided for individuals and groups, children and adults.

Mindfulness Coaching
"Mindfulness is a mental state achieved by focusing one's awareness on the present moment, while calmly acknowledging and accepting one's feelings, thoughts, and bodily sensations".
Mindfulness is a practice that we (individuals and groups) can incorporate into daily life. It enables us to change the way we think and feel about our experiences, especially stressful experiences. An holistic practice, it increases our ability to manage difficult situations and make wise choices.
When we intentionally practise being mindful, we feel less stressed, anxious and depressed. The UK Government’s National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) now recommend MBCT for the treatment of recurrent depression. Research also shows positive effects on several aspects of whole-person health, including the mind, the brain, the body, and behaviour, as well as a person’s relationships with others.
Mindfulness can be used as a tool to manage your wellbeing and mental health, helping you to:
- Make the most of your potential
- Cope with life
- Play a full part in your family, workplace, community and among friends
Mindfulness is not new - it has origins in the contemplative traditions of Asia, especially Buddhism. It has become increasingly common for mindfulness techniques to be combined with psychotherapy, especially cognitive behavioral therapy. This development makes good sense, since both mindfulness and cognitive behavioral therapy share the common goal of helping people gain perspective on irrational, maladaptive, and self-defeating thoughts.
Many of our therapists now include mindfulness in their clients' specific treatments, but it can also be taught as a practice in its own right, either 1:1 with a therapist, in a group class or as a self-help home programme.

Peak Sports Performance Coaching
Peak performance does not depend on physical strength alone. The emotional state and mental focus are also critical to attain the desired outcome in which the person performs to the maximum of their ability, characterised by subjective feelings of confidence, effortlessness and total concentration on the task.
Mental Skills
At Asana, Nicola Todd is our specialist delivering Sports Hypnosis.
Nicola explains, "Today more and more athletes are using hypnosis to help improve their performance.
Hypnosis can be combined with a variety of techniques from sports psychology, mindfulness therapies, motivational coaching, NLP modeling and cognitive therapy to work on pre-performance set up, performance enhancement and post performance reflection.
I can teach you the most effective techniques to significantly improve your performance using a multi session protocol beginning with mindfulness training before anchoring a state of optimal arousal and pre perfromance set up. Goal setting exercises build on these core skills to create the groundwork for delivering formal hypnosis".
