The History of Mind Coaching
Mind Coaching is a dynamic and evolving field that combines elements of psychology, personal development, and various coaching techniques to help individuals achieve their goals and improve their mental well-being. Its roots can be traced back to ancient philosophical practices, but it has significantly developed and formalised over the past century.
Ancient Beginnings
The concept of using the mind to influence personal development and well-being dates back to ancient civilisations. Philosophers such as Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle explored the nature of the mind, self-awareness, and personal growth. Eastern traditions, including Buddhism and Taoism, also emphasised mindfulness, meditation, and mental discipline as paths to enlightenment and self-improvement.
Early 20th Century: Foundations in Psychology
The early 20th century saw the formalisation of psychology as a scientific discipline, laying the groundwork for modern mind coaching. Pioneers such as Sigmund Freud, Carl Jung, and Alfred Adler explored the intricacies of the human psyche, developing theories about motivation, behaviour, and personal development. Their work highlighted the importance of understanding the unconscious mind and its impact on behaviour and mental health.
In the 1950s and 1960s, humanistic psychology emerged, focusing on the potential for personal growth and self-actualisation. Influential figures like Abraham Maslow and Carl Rogers emphasised the importance of positive thinking, self-awareness, and goal setting, which are foundational principles in mind coaching.
The Rise of Coaching: 1980s and 1990s
The 1980s and 1990s witnessed the rise of coaching as a distinct profession. Influenced by the human potential movement and positive psychology, coaches began to develop methods and techniques to help individuals achieve their personal and professional goals. Key figures such as Timothy Gallwey, with his work in sports psychology, and Thomas Leonard, who founded the International Coach Federation (ICF), played pivotal roles in shaping the coaching industry.
Gallwey’s book, "The Inner Game of Tennis," published in 1974, introduced the concept of the inner game, emphasising the mental aspects of performance and personal development. This idea resonated beyond sports, influencing the broader field of coaching.
Development of Mind Coaching
Mind coaching evolved as a specialised area within the broader coaching field, integrating techniques from psychology, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), neurolinguistic programming (NLP), and mindfulness. It focuses on helping individuals develop mental resilience, clarity, and strategies to overcome obstacles and achieve their goals.
NLP, developed by Richard Bandler and John Grinder in the 1970s, introduced techniques for changing thought patterns and behaviours. These techniques became integral to mind coaching, providing tools for enhancing communication, motivation, and personal change.
Modern Mind Coaching
Today, mind coaching is a recognised and respected practice, used by individuals, athletes, executives, and organisations worldwide. Modern mind coaches employ a variety of techniques to help clients identify their goals, overcome limiting beliefs, and develop strategies for success. These techniques include:
-
Goal Setting and Action Planning: Helping clients set clear, achievable goals and create actionable plans to reach them.
-
Cognitive Restructuring: Identifying and changing negative thought patterns to promote positive thinking and mental well-being.
-
Mindfulness and Meditation: Teaching clients mindfulness and meditation techniques to enhance focus, reduce stress, and improve mental clarity.
-
Visualisation: Using mental imagery to help clients envision their success and build confidence.
-
Motivational Interviewing: Engaging clients in discussions that enhance their motivation and commitment to change.
Benefits of Mind Coaching
Mind coaching offers numerous benefits, including:
-
Improved mental clarity and focus
-
Enhanced emotional resilience
-
Increased motivation and productivity
-
Better stress management and relaxation
-
Greater self-awareness and personal growth
-
Achievement of personal and professional goals
Mind coaching empowers individuals to take control of their thoughts, emotions, and behaviours, leading to a more fulfilling and balanced life.

My Philosophy
I'm Teresa Saunders, a Registered Professional Clinical Hypnotherapist and proud member of NZAPH, dedicated to guiding individuals toward their fullest potential through a range of transformative modalities.
​
My philosophy is rooted in the belief that every individual possesses the innate capacity to overcome challenges, realise their potential, and live a fulfiling life.Through a compassionate and empowering approach, I guide my clients on a journey of self-discovery, healing, and personal growth.
​
At the heart of my philosophy is the understanding that each person's experiences, beliefs, and struggles are unique. I recognise the complexity of human nature and the interconnectedness of mind, body, and spirit. With this holistic perspective, I tailor my therapeutic interventions to address not only the symptoms but also the underlying causes of my clients' issues.
​
Central to my approach is the utilisation of clinical hypnotherapy, a powerful tool for accessing the subconscious mind and facilitating lasting change. By harnessing the power of the mind, I help individuals break free from negative thought patterns, overcome limiting beliefs, and cultivate new behaviour’s that align with their goals and aspirations.
​
I am committed to providing a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space for my clients to explore their inner world, confront their fears, and unleash their full potential. I believe in fostering a collaborative partnership where clients are active participants in their own healing journey, empowered to make meaningful choices and take positive action towards their desired outcomes.

How mindfulness changes our lives
Welcome to a world where mindfulness is more than just a buzzword, but a transformative approach to life. Harnessing the power of attention and presence, mindfulness encourages us to pause, breathe, and tune in to the present moment, enabling us to fully engage with the here and now.
In our hectic, fast-paced lives, our minds are often cluttered with worries about the future and regrets from the past, hindering us from experiencing the beauty of the present moment. Mindfulness, however, can help you break free from these constraints, fostering a sense of peace, balance, and overall well-being.
